that the child restraint is properly installed at
one of the rear seating positions . If in exception
al c ircumstances you must use it on the front
passenger seat, carefully read all of the informa
tion on child safety and Advanced Airbags and heed all of the applicable WARNINGS. Make cer
tain that the child and child restraint are correct
ly recognized by the capacitive passenger detec
tion system in the front passenger seat, that the
front passenger airbag is turned off, and that the
airbag status is always correctly signaled by the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light.
Many types and models of child restraints have
been available over the years, new mode ls are in
troduced regular ly incorporat ing new and im
proved designs and older mode ls are taken out of
production . Chi ld restraints are not standardized.
Ch ild restraints of the same type typically have
d ifferent weights and s izes and different "foot
prints", the s ize and shape of the bottom of the
child restraint that s its on the seat, when they
are installed on a vehicle seat. These differences
make it virtually impossible to certify compliance
with the requirements fo r advanced airbags with
each and every ch ild restraint that has ever been
sold in the past o r will be sold over the course o f
the useful life of your vehicle.
Fo r this reason, the United States National High
way Traffic Safety Administration has published a
list of specific type, makes and models of child
restraints that must be used to certify compli
ance of the Advanced Airbag System in your vehi
cle with the suppression requirements of Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208. These child
restraints are:

Wheels
"'If the changed tire pressures are not displayed
in the Infotainment system, drive the vehicle
for approximately 10 minutes so that the sen
sor signal from the wheels is received again.
During this adaptation phase, --.--is displayed
for the pressure and temperature and the tire
pressure monitoring system is only partially
available. It only provides a warning if one or
more t ire pressures is below the minimum per
mitted specified pressure. If this is the case, the
Rt] indicator light appears with a message.

Malfunctions
Appl ies to : vehicles wi th tire pressure mo nito rin g system
If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System is not
avai lable, the
mm indicator light appears in the
driver information system. The
Rt] indicator light
also blinks for approximately one minutes each
time the ignition is switched on. The tire pressure
monitoring system cannot be selected in the In
fotainment system. The following are examples
of situations that could cause a malfunction:
- If the message appears at the end of the adap
tation phase, the system cannot detect the
wheels installed on the vehicle. This may result
from one or more wheels being installed with out wheel sensors or with incompatible wheel
sensors.
- A wheel sensor or another component has
failed.
- Using snow chains can affect the function of
the system because of the shield ing effect of
the cha ins.
- The tire pressure monitoring system is not
available due to a malfunction .
- Transmitters with the same frequency, such as
headphones or remote-controlled devices, may
cause a temporary system malfunction due to
the strong electromagnetic field.
The
mm indicator light turns off once the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System is available again.
If
you cannot correct the malfunction and the mm
234
indicator light stays on, drive immediately to an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility to have the malfunction repaired.
