2016 AUDI TT COUPE roof rack

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Roof rack
The roof rack must only be secured in the posi­
tioning
bolt area.
Fig. 5 0 Mounting locations for roof rack
If luggage or cargo is to be carried on the roo f,
you
must observe the following:
- Your vehicle
has aerodynamic rain channels
molded into the roof. This is why conventional
roof luggage racks cannot be used. We recom ­
mend using roof rails from the Audi original ac­
cessories
program.
- These roof rails are the basis for a complete
roof rack system. For safety reasons, some ad­
ditional attachments are necessary to transport
luggage, bicycles, surf boards, skis and small
boats safely. All these components are availa­
ble at your authorized Audi dealer.
-The permitted roof load for your vehicle is 165
lbs (75 kg). The roof load is a combination of
the weight of the carrier system and the cargo.
-
When using roof rack systems with a lower load
capacity, you cannot use the maximum permis­
s ible
roof load. In this case, the roof rack can
only be
loaded to the weight limit give n in the
installation guide.
Installation
When installing the support feet, make sure they
are only placed in the positioning bolt area be­
tween the side wall frame and the roof frame
trim ~fig. 50. The positioning bolt is visible as
soon as you push the sealing lip back from the
room frame trim using the designated tool.
Seats and storage
A WARNING
iu=
-The cargo must be securely attached on the
roof rack, otherwise you increase the risk of
an accident.
-
You must under no circumstances exceed
the permissible roof load, the permissible
axle
loads and the permissible overall
weight of your vehicle because this increas­
es the risk of an accident.
-
Please note that there is a higher risk of col­
lision
when transporting heavy objects or
objects with a large surface on the roof rack,
since the handling characteristics
change
due to a shift in the center of gravity or the
g reater surface area exposed to the wind. So
adapt your driving and speed to the actual
conditions.
If you use other roof luggage rack systems or
do not install the racks as intended, any dam­
age to the vehicle is not covered by the war­
ranty. Carefully follow the assembly and in­
stallation instructions included with the roof
rack carrier system.
¢!/) For the sake of the environment
A
roof rack is often left mounted out of con­
venience even if
it is no longer used. Your ve­
hicle will use
more fuel due to the increased
wind
resistance. So remove the roof rack after
us ing it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine smash the child seat and child against the
backrest, center armrest, door, or roof.
- Always
install rearward-facing child re­
straints on the rear seat.
-If you must install a rearward facing child
seat on the front passenger seat because of
exceptional circumstances and the PASSEN­
GER AIR BAG OFF light does not come on
and stay on, immediately install the rear­
facing child
seat in a rear seating position
and have the airbag system inspected by
your Audi dealer.
A WARNING
If, in exceptional circumstances, you must in­
stall a forward-fac ing chi ld restraint on the
front passenger's seat:
- Always make sure the forward-fac ing seat
has been designed and cer t ified by its man­
ufacturer for use on a fron t seat with a pas­
senger front and side airbag .
- Never
put the forward-facing child restraint
up against or very near the instrument pan­
el.
-Always move the passenger seat into its
rearmost position in the seat's fore and aft
adjustment range, as far away from the air­
bag as possible, before install ing the for­
ward-facing child
restraint. The backrest
must be adjusted to an upright positio n.
-Always make sure that there is nothing on
the front passenger seat that will cause the
capacitive passenger detection system in
the seat to signa l to the Airbag System that
the seat is occupied by a person when it is
not, or to signa l that it is occupied by some­
one who is heavier than the person actually
sitting on the seat. T he presence of addi­
tional objec ts could cause the passenger
fro nt airbag to be turned on when it should
be off, or could cause the airbag to work in a
way
that is different from the way it would
have worked
without the object on the seat.
- Make
sure that the PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF light comes on and stays on all the time
whenever the ignition is switched on.
Airbag system
Advanced Airbag System components
The front passenger seat in your vehicle has a lo t
of ve ry important parts of the Advan ced Airb ag
System in it. These parts include the capacitive
passenger detection system, wiring, brackets,
and more. The control unit monitors the system
on the front passenger seat when the ignition is
switched on and turns the airbag indicator light
on when a malfunction in the one of the system
components is detected c> page 200. Because
the front passenger seat contai ns important
parts of the Advanced Airbag System, you must
take care to p revent it from being damaged.
Dam age to the seat m ay prevent the Advan ced
Airbag
System for the front passenger seat from
doing its job in a crash.
The front Advanced Airbag System consists
of the following:
-Crash sensors in the front of the ve hicl e tha t
measure vehicle acceleration/deceleration to
prov ide information to the Advanced Airbag
System about the severity of the crash.
-
An electronic control unit, with integrated
crash sensors for front and side impacts. The
control un it "decides" whether to f ir e the front
airbags based on the information rece ived from
the crash sensors. The control unit also "de­
cides" whether the safety belt pretensioners
should be activated.
-
An Advanced Airbag with gas generator for the
driver inside the steering wheel hub .
-
An Adva nced Airbag with gas generator inside
the instrument panel for the front passenger.
- A
capacitive passenger detection system under­
neath the front passenger seat cove r. This sys ­
tem measures the electrica l capacitance of the
pe rson in the seat. The information registered
is sent continuous ly to the electronic control
u
nit to reg ulate deployment of t he front Ad­
vanced Airbag on
the passenger side.

When an airbag deploys, fine dust is released.
This is normal and is not caused by a fire in the
vehicle. This dust is made up mostly of a powder
used to lubricate the airbags as they deploy. It
could irritate skin.
It is important to remember that while the sup­
plemental airbag system is designed to reduce
the likelihood of serious injuries, other injuries,
for example swelling , bruising and minor abra­
sions, can also happen when airbags inflate. Air­
bags do not protect the arms or the lower parts
of the body. Front airbags supplement the three
point safety belts only in some frontal collisions
in which the vehicle deceleration is high enough
to deploy the airbags.
Front airbag s will not deploy:
-ifthe ignit ion is switched off when a crash oc-
curs,
-in side collisions,
-
in rear-end collisions,
-
in rollovers,
-
when the crash deceleration measured by the
airbag system is less than the minimum thresh­
old needed for airbag deployment as registered
by the electronic control unit.
The front passenge r airbag will also not
deploy:
-when the front passenger seat is not occupied,
-
when the electrical capacitance measured by
the capacitive passenger detection system for
the front passenger seat indicates that the pas­
senger side frontal airbag must be switc hed off
by the electronic control unit (the PASSENGER
AIR
BAG OFF light Q page 200 and how they
work comes on and stays on).
A WARNING
Sitting in the wrong position can increase the
risk of serious injury in crashes.
-To reduce the risk of injury when the airbags
inflate, the driver and passengers must al­
ways
sit in an upright position, must not
lean against or place any part of their body
too close to the area where the airbags are
located.
198
-Occupants who are unbelted, out of position
or too close to the airbag can be seriously
injured
by an airbag as it unfolds with great
force in the blink of an eye Q page 189.
A WARNING
A child in a rearward-facing child seat instal­
led
on the front passenger seat will be seri­
ously injured
and can be killed if the front air­
bag inflates -even with an Advanced Airbag
System.
-The inflating airbag will hit the child seat or
infant carrier with great force and will
smash the child seat and child against the
backrest, center armrest, door or roof.
- Always install rear-facing
child seats on the
rear seat.
- If you must install a rearward facing child
seat on the front passenger seat because of
exceptional circumstances and the PASSEN­
GER AIR BAG OFF light does not come on
and stay on, immediately install the rear­
facing child seat in a rear seating position
and have the airbag system inspected by
your Audi dealer.
A WARNING
Objects between you and the airbag will in­
crease the risk of injury in a crash by interfer­
ing with the way the airbag unfolds or by be­
ing pushed into you as the airbag inflates.
- Never hold
things in your hands or on your
lap when the vehicle is in use.
-
-Never transport items on or in the area of
the front passenger seat. Objects could
move in
to the area of the front airbags dur­
ing braking or other sudden maneuver and
become dangerous projectiles that can
cause serious personal injury if the airbags
inflate.
- Never place
or attach accessories or other
objects (such as cup holders, telephone
brackets, large, heavy or bulky objects) on
the doors, over or near the area marked
"AIRBAG" on the steering wheel, instru­
ment panel, seat backrests or between

-Damage (cracks, deep scratches etc.) to the
original seat covers or to the seam in the
area of the side airbag module must always
be repaired immediately by an authorized
Audi dealer.
-If children are seated improperly, their risk
of injury increases in the case of an accident
¢page 212, Child safety.
-Never attempt to modify any components of
the airbag system in any way.
-
In a side collision, side airbags will not func­
tion properly if sensors cannot correctly
measure increasing air pressure inside the
doors when air escapes through larger, un­
closed openings in the door panel.
-Never drive with interior door trim panels
removed.
-Never drive when parts have been re­
moved from the inside door panel and the
openings they leave have not been proper­
ly closed.
- Never drive
when loudspeakers in the
doors have been removed unless the
speaker holes have been properly closed.
- Always
make certain that openings are
covered or filled if additional speakers or
other equipment is installed in the inside
door panels.
-Always have work on the doors done by an
authorized Audi dealer or qualified work­
shop.
Airbag system
Side curtain airbags
Description of side curtain airbags
The side curtain airbag system can provide sup­
plemental protection to properly restrained oc­
cupants.
Fig. 163 Side curtain airbags, driver's side: side curtain air­
bag locat ion
The side curtain airbags are located on both sides
of the interior above the front and rear side win­
dows~ fig. 163. They are identified by the word
"AIRBAG" on the windshield frame and the cen­
ter roof pillar .
The
side curtain airbags contain features that
provide ejection mitigation to help prevent vehi­
cle occupants or parts of their bodies from being
completely or partially ejected from the vehicle
interior in certain side impacts and vehicle roll­
overs.
The
side curtain airbag system supplements the
safety belts and can help to reduce the risk of in­
jury for occupants' heads and upper torso. The
side
curtain airbag inflates in side impacts and
only when the vehicle acceleration registered by
the control unit is high enough. If this rate is be­
low the reference value programmed into the
control unit, the side curtain airbag will not be
triggered, even though the car may be badly
damaged as a resu lt of the collision. It is not pos­
sible to define an airbag triggering range that
will cover every possible angle of impact, since
the circumstances will vary considerably between
one collis ion and another. Important factors in­
clude, for example, the nature (hard or soft) of
the impacting object, the angle of impact, vehicle
speed, etc. ~page 210, How side curtain air­
bags work .
