straints on page 133.
- Only remove the rear seat head restra ints
when necessary in orde r to insta ll a ch ild
seat. In stall the head restraint again imme­
diately once the child sea t is removed . Driv­
ing with the head restraints removed or no t
in the upright position increases the risk of

Memory function
Description
App lies to : vehicles with memory function
Using the memory function, you can quickly and
easily store a persona l seat p rofile for the driver
and front passenge r and recall the sett ings. The
memory funct ion is co ntro lled using the remote
contro l key and the memory buttons in the driv­
er's/front passenger's door *.
The driver's seat prof ile is stored again and as­
s igned to the remote control key each t ime the
vehicle is locked . When you open the door, the
seat profile is automatically recalled . If two peo­
ple use the vehicle, it is recommended that each
person always uses their "own" remote control
key .
Two seat profiles can be stored using the memo­ ry buttons in the driver's/front passenge r's
door *. Once they are stored, these seat profiles
can be selected at any time.
The following settings are stored:

Driving
c;,page 130, fig. 142. If you cannot main­
tain this minimum distance, the airbag sys­
tem cannot protect you properly.
- If physical limitations prevent you from sit­
ting 10 in (25 cm) or more from the steer­
ing wheel, check with your authorized Audi
dealer to see if adaptive equipment is avail­
able.
- If the steering wheel is aligned with your
face, the supplemental driver's airbag can­
not provide as much protection in an acci­
dent. A lways make sure that the steering
wheel is aligned with your chest.
- Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tions to reduce the risk of personal injury if
the driver's airbag deploys .
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position or with your hands inside
the steering wheel rim or on the steering
wheel hub . Holding the steering wheel the
wrong way can cause serious injuries to the
hands, arms and head if the driver's airbag
deploys.

In vehicles with memory function*, the steering
column settings are sto red together with the
seat position.
~ WARNING
Improper use of steering wheel adjustment
and improper seating position can cause seri­
ous personal injury.
- Adjust the steering wheel column only when
the vehicle is not moving to prevent loss of
vehicle control.
- Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is a minimum of 10 in (25 cm)
between your chest and the steering wheel
c;,page 130, fig. 142 . If you cannot main­
tain this minimum distance, the airbag sys­
tem cannot protect you properly.
- If physical limitations prevent you from sit­ ting 10 in (25 cm) or more from the steer­
ing wheel, check with your authorized Audi
dealer to see if adaptive equipment is avail­
able.
- If the steering wheel is aligned with your
face, the supplemental dr iver's a irbag can­
not provide as much protection in an acci­
dent. Always make sure that the steering
wheel is aligned with your chest.
- Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tions to reduce the risk of personal injury if
the driver's airbag dep loys.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position or with your hands inside
the steering wheel rim or on the steering
wheel hub. Holding the steering wheel the
wrong way can cause serious injuries to the hands, arms and head if the driver's airbag
deploys.

Airbag syste m
(CMVSS) 208 as applicable at the time your veh i­
cle was manufactured.
The front Advanced Airbag System supp lements
the safety belts to prov ide additional protection
for the driver's and front passenger 's heads and
upper bodies in frontal crashes. The airbags in­
flate only in frontal impacts when the veh icle de­
celerat ion is high enough.
The front Advanced Airbag System for the front
seat occupants is not a substitute for your safety be lts. Rather, it is part of the overa ll occupant re­
stra int system in your vehicle. Always remember
that the airbag system can only help to protect
you, if you are sitting upright, wearing your safe­
ty belt and wearing it properly. This is why you
and your passengers must always be properly re­
stra ined, not just because the law requ ires you to
be.
The Advanced Airbag System in your veh icle has
been cert ified to meet the " low r isk" require­
ments for 3 and 6 yea r-o ld children on the pas­
senge r side and very sma ll adults on the driver
side . The low r isk dep loyment cr iteria are intend ­
ed to he lp reduce the risk of injury through inter­
action with the front airbag that can occur, for
examp le, by being too close to the steering wheel
and instrument panel when the airbag inflates.
I n addition, the system has been certified to
comp ly with the "suppression" requirements of
the Safety Standard, to turn off the front a irbag
for infants 12 months old and younger who are
restrained on the front passenger seat in ch ild re­
stra ints that are listed in the Standard
c::> page 17 4, Child restraints and Advanced front
airbag system.
"Suppression" requ ires the front a irbag on the
passenger side to be turned off if:
- a chi ld up to about one year of age is restrained
on the front passenger seat in one of the rear­
facing or forward-facing infant restraints listed
in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208
with wh ich the Advanced Airbag System in your
vehicle was certified. For a listing of the ch ild
r estra ints tha t were used to certify your veh i­
cle's compl iance with the US Safety Standard
c::> page 174,
154
- When a pe rson is detected on the front passen ­
ger seat that has an electrical capacitance that
is more than the total e lectr ica l capacitance of
a child that is about
1 year old restrained in one
of the rear-fac ing or forward-facing infant re­
straints ( listed in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 208 with which the Advanced Airbag
System in your vehicle was certified), the front
airbag on the passe nger side may or may not
dep loy.
The
PASSENGER AIR BA G OFF light comes o n
whe n the elect ronic control unit detects a tota l
electrica l capacitance on the front passenge r seat
t h at req uires the front a irbag to be turned off. If
the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF li ght does not
come on, the front airbag on the passenger side
has not been turned
off by the contro l unit and
can deploy if the contro l unit senses an impact
that meets the cond itions stored in its memory.
If the total e lectrica l capacitance registered o n
the front passenger seat is more than that of a
typ ica l 1 year-o ld, but less than the weight of a
small adult, the front a irbag on the passenger
s ide may deploy (the
PASSENG ER AIR BAG OF F
light does not come on).
For e xample , the airb ag ma y deploy if :
-a small ch ild tha t is heav ier than a typica l 1
yea r-old child is on the front passenger seat
(regard less of whether the child is in one of the
child seats listed
c::, page 174),
- a child who has outgrown ch ild restraints is on
the front passenger seat.
If the front passenger a irbag is tu rned off, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light in the center of
the instr ument pane l will come on and stay on .
If the front passenger a irbag deploys, the Feder ­
al Sta ndard requ ires the ai rbag to meet the " low
risk" dep loyment criteria to he lp reduce the r isk
of inj ury through interaction with the airbag .
" Low risk" deployment occurs in those crashes
that take p lace at lower decelerations as defined
i n the electronic contro l unit
<=> page 160.
Always rem ember : Even tho ugh your vehicle is
equipped with Advanced Airbags, the safest place
for children is properly restrained on the back
