2017 AUDI TT COUPE ABS

Child safety
-If a seat heater has been retrof itted or oth­
erwise added to the front passenger seat,
never install any child restraint system on
this seat .
- Make sure that there are no wet objects
(such as a wet towe l) and no water or other
liquids on the front passenger seat cushion .
- Never place objects on the seat (such as a
laptop, CD player, electronic games device,
power inverter or seat heater for child
seats) . These may influence the e lectr ica l
capacitan ce measured by the capacitive pas­
senger detection system and can also fly
around in an acc ident and ca use serio us pe r­
sonal injury .
- Make s ure tha t the

- If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF 1i; light
does not come on and stay on, immediate ly
insta ll the forward-facing child seat at a
seating position on the rear seat and have
the a irbag system inspected by your author­
ized Audi dealer.
- Take the ch ild restraint off the front passen­
ger seat and install it properly at one of the
rear seat positions if the

Booster seats and safety belts
Properly used booster sea ts can help protect
children weighing between about 40 lbs and
80 lbs (18 kg and 36 kg) who are less than 4 ft 9
in (57 in/1 .45 m) tall.
F ig . 17 4 Rea r seat: chi ld p roper ly restra ined in a booster
seat

The vehicle's safety belts alone wi ll not fit most
children until they are at least 4
ft 9 in (57 in/
1.45 m) tall and weigh about 80 lbs (36 kg) .
Booster seats raise these children up so that the
safety be lt will pass properly over the stronger
parts of their bodies and the safety belt can help
protect them in a crash.
.. Do not use the convertib le locking retractor
when us ing the ve hicle's safety belt to restra in
a child on a booster seat .
.., The shoulder belt must lie as close to the cen­
ter of the child's collar bon e as possib le and
must l ie flat and snug on the uppe r body.
It
must never lie across the throat or neck. The
lap belt must lie ac ross the pelvis and never
across t he stomach or abdomen . Make sure the
belt lies flat and snug. Pu ll on the belt to tight­
en if necessary.
.. Secure unused safety belts on the rear seat
¢page 227.
Children up to at least 8 years o ld (over 40 lbs or
18 kg) are best protected in child safety seats de ­
s igned for their age and weight. Experts say that
the skeletal structure, part icu larly the pelvis, of
these children is not fully developed, and they must not use the vehicle safety belts without a
su itab le child restra int.
It is usually best to put these children in appro­
pr iate booster seats . Be sure the booster seat
meets a ll applicab le safety standards .
Booster seats raise the seating position of the
c hi ld and reposition both the lap and shoulder
parts of the safety belt so that they pass across
the chi ld's body in the right places . The rou ting of
the be lt over the ch ild's body is very important
fo r the child's protection, whet he r or not a boos ­
ter seat is used. C hildren age 12 and under m ust
a lways ride in the rear seat.
Never use the lap belt port ion of the vehicle's
safety belt alone to restra in any child, regard less
of how b ig the child is. A lways remember that
c hi ldre n do not have the pronounced pe lvic struc ­
ture requ ired for the proper function of lap belt
portion of the vehicle 's three point lap and
shou lder belts. The chi ld's safety absolutely re­
quires that a lap belt port ion of the safety belt be ...,

8,_ WARNING , -
-Only use tire/rim combina-
tions and suitable wheel bolts
that have been approved by
Audi. Otherwise, damage to
the vehicle and an accident
could result.
-For technical reasons, it is not possible to use tires from oth­
er vehicles -in some cases,
you cannot even use tires from
the same vehicle model.
-Make sure that the tires you select have enough clearance
to the vehicle. Replacement
tires should not be chosen simply based on the nominal
size, because tires with a dif­
ferent construction can differ greatly even if they are the
same size. If there is not
enough clearance, the tires or
the vehicle can be damaged
and this can reduce driving
safety and increase the risk of
an accident.
-Only use tires that are more
than six years old when abso­
lutely necessary and drive
carefully when doing so.
Wheels
-Do not use run-flat tires on
your vehicle. Using them when
not permitted can lead to ve­ hicle damage or accidents.
-If you install wheel covers on
the vehicle, make sure they al­
low enough air circulation to
cool the brake system. If they
do not, this could increase the
risk of an accident.
Tire wear/damage
Fig. 197 Tire profile : treadwear indica­
tor
Tire wear
Check the tires regularly for wear .
-Inflation pressure that is too low
or high can increase tire wear
considerably.
-Driving quickly through curves, rapid acceleration and heavy
braking increase tire wear .
-Have an authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facili­
ty check the wheel alignment if
there is unusual wear.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the sys­
tem is not operating properly. The TPMS mal­
function indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi ­
mately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated . This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal­
function exists .
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly . Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure
that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
indicator appears
The tire pressure indicator in the instrument
cluster informs you if the tire pressure is too low
or if there is a system malfunction .
Using the ABS sensors, the tire pressure monitor­
ing system compares the tire tread circumfer­
ence and vibration characteristics of the individu­
al tires. If the pressure changes in one or more
tires, this is indicated in the Infotainment system
display w ith an indicator light
RE and a message.
If only one tire is affected, the location of that
tire will be indicated.
The tire pressures must be stored in the Infotain­
ment system again each time the pressures
change (switching between partial and full load
pressure) or after changing or replacing a tire on
your vehicle
c::;, page 274 . The tire pressure moni­
toring system only monitors the tire pressure you have stored. Refer to the tire pressure label for
the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle
¢ page 265, fig. 199.
Wheels
Tire tread circumference and vibration character­
istics can change and cause a tire pressure warn­
ing if :
- the tire pressure in one or more tires is too low.
- the tire has structural damage.
- the tire was replaced or the tire pressure was
changed and it was not stored
c::;, page 274.
- the spare tire* is installed .
Indicator lights
RE-Loss of pressure in at least one tire c::;, &,.
Check the tires and replace or repair if necessary.
Check/correct the pressures of all four tires and
store the pressure again in the Infotainment sys­
tem
¢ page 274.
mm (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Tire
pressure: malfunction! See owner's manual -If
mm appears after switching on the ignition or
while driving and then the indicator light
RE in
the instrument cluster also starts to blink for
about one minute and then stays on permanent­
ly, there is a system malfunction. Try to store the
correct tire pressures
c::;, page 2 74 . If the indica­
tor light does turn off or turns on again after a short period of time, drive to an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility immedi­
ately to have the malfunction corrected.
A WARNING
..-
- If the tire pressure indicator appears in the
display, reduce your speed immediately and
avoid any hard steering or braking maneu­
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
tires and their pressure.
- The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressures . You must check the
tire pressures regularly .
- Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions or unpaved
roads), the pressure monitor indicator may
be delayed.
- Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle . Us­
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents.
