cut-off speed has not yet been set.
@- The speed limiter is in passive mode, and a
set cut-off speed has been stored.
@ -The speed limiter is activated. The indicator
lamp Ill flashes briefly when the speed limiter is
applied.
A WARNING
Always switch the speed limiter off after use
to prevent it from being activated uninten­
tionally.
- Even when using the speed limiter, the driv­
er maintains full responsibility for control­
ling the vehicle's speed.
- Always direct your full attention to the road,
even when you are using the speed limiter.
It is always the driver who is responsible for
determining the speed and for keeping a
safe distance to the other vehicles on the
road.
- For safety reasons, the speed limiter must
not be used in adverse weather or difficult
driving conditions (such as ice, fog, loose
88 grit
or gravel, heavy rain, etc.) -risk of acci­
dent!
- Only accelerate quickly or use the kick-down
feature when the visibility and weather con­
ditions are suitable, and when the road and
traffic conditions allow you do do so safely.
CD CAUTION
Before driving down a long, steep gradient, it
is advisable to reduce speed and select a low­
er gear. In this way you will make use of the
engine braking effect and relieve the load on
the brakes.

The side assist function assists the driver in mon­
itoring following traffic and the blind spots on
both sides of the car. Within certain system Lim- Driver
assist systems
its, it warns you if it detects vehicles approaching
quickly or travelling at about the same speed as
your own vehicle in the area covered by the sen­
sors (!)¢ Fig. 100: if it judges a Lane change to
be critical, the warning Lamp@on the exterior

technology
ESC and the integrated systems cannot
compensate for the increased accident risk.
- When accelerating on a uniformly slippery
surface (for instance all four wheels on ice
or snow), press the accelerator gradually
and carefully. The driven wheels may other­
wise start to spin (in spite of the integrated
control systems), which would impair the
car's stability and could lead to an accident.
@ Note
- The ABS and ASR systems can only work
properly if all four tyres have a similar de-
Switching on/off gree of
wear. Any differences in the rolling
radius of the tyres can cause the system to
reduce engine power when this is not de­
sired.
- The systems can make noises when they in­
tervene.
The ESC is switched on automatically when the engine is started.
the ESC is restricted or switched off, and the ve­
hicle is stabilised to a greater or lesser degree.
In the following special situations, it may be ad­
visable to switch on the sport mode to allow a
certain amount of wheels pin:
- Rocking the car backwards and forwards to free
it
- Driving in deep snow or on loose surfaces
- Driving with snow chains

Brake servo
The brake servo amplifies the pressure you apply
to the brake pedal.
A WARNING
- When applying the brakes to clean off de­
posits on the pads and discs, select a clear,
dry road. Be sure not to inconvenience or en­
danger other road users; do not risk an acci­
dent.
- Never let the car coast with the engine
switched off (this can cause accidents).
CD CAUTION
- Never let the brakes "drag" by leaving your
foot on the pedal
when
you do not really in­
tend to brake. This overheats the brakes, re­
sulting in longer stopping distances and
greater wear.
- Before driving down a long, steep gradient,
it is advisable to reduce speed and select a
lower gear. In this way you will make use of
the engine braking effect and relieve the
load on the brakes. If you still have to use
the brakes, it is better to brake firmly at in­
tervals than to apply the brakes continuous­
ly.
� Note
-If the brake servo is out of action, you must
apply considerably more pressure to the
brake pedal than you normally would.
- If you wish to equip the car with accessories
such as a front spoiler or wheel covers, it is
important that the flow of air to the front
wheels is not obstructed, otherwise the
brakes can overheat.
Electro-mechanical
power steering
Electro-mechanical power steering assists the
driver when steering.
The degree of power assistance is adapted elec­
tronically, depending on the speed.
116 Warning/indicator
lamps and driver
messages
• Steering: fault. Please stop vehicle
If the warning lamp Lights up permanently and
the message appears, there may be a power
steering failure.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place as soon as possi­
ble. Do NOT drive on. Obtain professional assis­
tance.
� Steering: fault. You can continue driving
If the indicator lamp lights up, the steering re­
sponse may be heavier or Lighter than usual. In
addition, it is possible that the steering wheel
will be off centre when driving in a straight Line.
Drive slowly to a qualified workshop and have the
fault rectified.
('!)) Note
You can drive on if the warning/indicator
lamp . or� Lights up only briefly.
Four-wheel drive
(quattro)
Applies to: vehicles with four-wheel drive
On quattro models the engine power is distrib­
uted to all four wheels.
General notes
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the engine power is
distributed to all four wheels. The distribution of
power is controlled automatically according to
your driving style and the road conditions. Also
refer to¢ page 113, Electronic stabilisation con­
trol (ESC).
The four-wheel drive is specially designed to
complement the superior engine power of your
Audi. This combination gives the car exceptional
handling and performance capabilities -both on
normal roads and in more difficult conditions,
such as snow and ice. Even so (or perhaps espe­
cially for this reason), it is important to observe
certain safety points¢&.

Safety features
The safety features Listed here are part of the ve­
hicle's occupant restraint system. They work to­
gether to help reduce the risk of injury in a wide
variety of accident situations.
Your safety and the safety of your passengers
should not be left to chance. In the event of an
accident, the safety features incorporated in your

individual safety features are harmonised
to provide you and your passenger with the best
possible protection in accident situations. How­
ever, they can only be effective if you and your
passenger sit in the correct position and adjust
and use the safety equipment properly.
For these reasons, this chapter explains why
these safety features are so important, how they
can protect you, what you need to remember
when using them, and how you and your passen­
gers can gain the most benefit from them. There
are also a number of important safety warnings
which you and your passengers should always ob­
serve in order to minimise the risk of injury.
Safety is everyone's responsibility!
