· Activating the convertible locking retractor
Use the convertible locking retractor to secure a
child restraint.
Always heed the child safety seat manufacturer's
instructions when installing a child restraint in
your vehicle . T o activate the convert ible locking
retractor:
.. Place the child restraint on a seat, preferably on
the rear seat .
.. Slowly pull the belt
all the way out.
.. Route it around or through the child restraint
belt pat h
c::> ,&..
.. Push the ch ild safety seat down with your full
weight to get the safety belt really tight.
.. Insert the belt tongue into the buckle for that
seating position.
.. Guide the safety be lt back into the retractor un­
til the belt lies flat and snug on the ch ild safety
seat.
.. You should hear a "clicking" noise as the belt
w inds back into the inertia reel. Test the con­
vert ible lock ing retractor by pulling on the belt .
You should no longer be able to pull the belt
out of the ret ractor. The convertible locking re­
tractor is now activated .
.. Make sure that the red release button is facing
away from the child restraint so that it can be
unbuckled quickly .
.. Pull on the belt to make sure the safety belt is
properly tight and fastened so that the seat
cannot move forward or s ideways more than
one inch (2 .5 cm).
_&. WARNING
Using the wrong child restraint or an improp­
erly installed child restraint can cause serious
personal injury or death in a crash.
- Always make sure that the safety belt re­
tractor is loc ked when insta lling a child safe­
ty seat. An unlocked safety belt retractor
cannot hold the child safety seat in place
during normal driving or in a crash.

The catalytic conve rter is an efficient "clean -up"
device bui lt into the exhaust system of the vehi ­
cle. The catalytic converter burns many of the
pollutants in the exhaust gas before they are re­
leased into the atmosphere.
The exclusive use of unleaded fue l is critically im­
portant for the life of the catalytic converter and
proper functioning of the engine .
A WARNING
The temperature of the exhaust system is
high, both when driving and after stopping
the engine.
- Never touch the exhaust tail pipes once they
have become hot. This could result in burns.
- Do not park or operate the vehicle in areas
where the hot exhaust system may come in contact with dry grass, brush, fue l spill or
other material which can cause a fire .
- Do not apply additional undercoating or
rustproofing on o r near the exha ust man i­
fold, exhaust pipes, catalyt ic converte r or
heat s hields. Dur ing driv ing, the subs tance
u5ed for undercoating could overheat and
cause a fire .
(D Note
-Be awa re that just one tank f illing wit h lead­
ed
f uel will a lready se riously degrade the
performance of the c ata lytic conver ter.
- Do not exceed the co rrect engine oil leve l
9page203.
-Do not d rive until the fuel tank becomes
complete ly empty. The eng ine could misfi re.
U nburned f uel co uld also ge t in to the e x­
haust system and this could ca use the cata ­
l ytic converter to overheat.
- Do no t sw itch off the ignition wh ile the vehi­
cle is moving.
- Do not con tinue to oper ate yo ur vehicle un­
der these cond itions, as o therwise fue l can
r each the catalytic converte r. This cou ld re­
su lt in overheating of the converter, requir­
i ng its replacement.
- To assure efficient ope ration of the Emission
Control System:
Checking and Fillin g
- Have your vehicle maintained properly and
in accordance with the serv ice recommen­
dat ions in yo ur Warranty
& Maintenance
booklet.
- Lack of prope r maintenance as we ll as im­
p roper use of the vehicle will impair the
f u nction of the emission control system
and could lead to damage.
@ For the sake of the environment
Even when the Emission Control System is op­
erating properly, the exha ust gas can have a
su lfur-like exhaust gas sme ll under some op­
erating states. Th is depends on the s ulfur
content of the fuel b eing used. Us ing a diffe r­
ent bra nd of fue l may he lp, or fi lling the tank
wi th lead-free su per grade gaso line.
Diesel particulate filter
App lies to vehicles: wit h diese l eng ine
T he diese l part icu late filter filters nearly all of
the soot pa rticles ou t of the exha ust. The filter
cl ea ns itself a utoma tic all y unde r no rm al driving
con dit ions. If the filte r cannot clean itse lf (for ex­
amp le, because yo u are only driving sho rt distan ­
ces), th e fi lter becomes clogged with soot and
the
II symbol for the diese l partic ulate filter il­
l uminates
9page 22.
A WARNING
-Do not park your veh icle over flammable
materials such as grass or leaves because
the high temperature of the diesel part icu­
la te filte r could sta rt a fi re.
-
- Do not app ly an underbody protectant in the
exhaust system area or a fire cou ld start.
Selective catalytic
reduction
General information
App lies to vehicles: wit h diese l eng ine
In veh icles with selective catalytic reduction, a
u rea solution (AdBlue) is injected into the ex­
haust system before a nitrogen oxide cata lytic
conve rter to redu ce nitrogen emissions.

today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the
scope of maintenance and repairs which can be
carried out by vehicle owners .
Also , s afety a nd
en viro nm enta l
concerns place very strict limits
on the nature of repa irs and adjustments to en­
g ine and transmission parts which an owner can
perform.
Maintenance, adjustments and repa irs usua lly re­
qu ire spec ial tools, testing devices and other
equ ipment available to specially trained work­
shop perso nnel in order to assure proper per­
formance, reliab ility and safety of the vehicle and
its many systems.
Improper ma intenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
vehicle and even void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of se rv icing in accordance with
the m aintenance schedule may be a condi tion for
upho ld ing a possib le warranty cla im made w ith in
the warranty period .
Above all, operational safety can be adversely af­
fected, creating unnecessary r isks fo r you and
your passengers.
I f in doubt about any servicing, have it done by
your author ized Audi dealer or any other prope rly
equ ipped and qua lified workshop. We st rongly
urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the
opport unity to perform all sched uled mainte­
nance and necessary repairs . Your dealer has the
fac ilities, origina l parts and trained specia lists to
keep yo ur vehicle runn ing properly.
P e rforming lim it e d ma inten anc e y ours elf
The fo llowing pages describe a limited number of
proced ures which can be performed on yo ur vehi­
cle with ordinary tools, should the need arise and
trained personne l be unavailable. Before per­
forming any of these procedures, always thor­
oughly read all of the applicable text and careful­
