What impairs driving safety?
Safe driving is dire ctly related to the condition of
the vehicle, the driver as well as the driver's abili­
ty to concentrate on the road without being dis ­
tracted.
T he dr iver is responsib le for the sa fe ty of the ve ­
hicle and a ll of its occupants. If your ability to
drive is impai red, safety risks for everybody in the
vehicl e inc rease and you a lso become a hazard to
everyone else on the road
¢ A_ . Therefore:
.. Do not let yourse lf be distracted by passenge r
or by using a ce llular telephone .
.. NEVER drive when your driving ability is im ­
pa ired (by med ications, alcohol, drugs, etc.) .
.. Observe all traffic laws, rules of the road and
speed lim its and plain common sense .
.. ALWAYS adjust your speed to road, traffic and
weather conditions .
.,.

Safe dri ving
,.. Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive
for more than two hours at a stretch.
,.. Do NOT drive when you are tired, under pres­
sure or when you are stressed.
A WARNING
Impaired driving safety increases the risk of
serious personal injury and death whenever a
vehicle is being used.

,.. Adjust the angle of the seatback so that it is in
an upright position so that your back comes in
full contact with it when you drive.
,.. Adjust the steering wheel so that there is a dis ­
tance of at least 10 in (25 cm) between the
steering wheel and your breast bone
c:> fig. 150.
If not possible, see your authorized Audi deal­
ersh ip about adaptive equipment .
,.. Adjust the steering wheel so that the steering
whee l and airbag cover points at you r chest and
not at your face.

,.. Grasp the top of the steering wheel with your
elbow(s) slightly bent.
,.. Fasten and wear safety belts correctly
c:> page 190 .
,.. Always keep both feet in the footwell so that
you are in control of the vehicle at all times .
For detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see
c:> page 46, Front seats.
A WARNING
Drivers who are unbelted, out of position or
too close to the airbag can be seriously in -
ju red by an airbag as it unfolds. To help re-
duce the risk of serious pe rsonal injury:
-Always adjust the driver's seat and the
steer ing wheel so that the re are at least
10 in (25 cm) between your breastbone and
the steering wheel.
-Always adjust the driver's seat and the
steer ing whee l so that there are at least 4 in
(10 cm) between the knees and the lower
pa rt of the instrument pane l.
- Always hold the steering wheel on the out­
side of the steering wheel rim with your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tions to help reduce the risk of personal in­
jury if the dr iver's a irbag inflates.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the
12 o'clock position or with your hands at
other positions inside the steering whee l
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 inflates
- Pointing the steering wheel toward your face decreases the ability of the supplemen­
tal driver's airbag to protect you in a coll i­
sion.
- Always sit in an upright pos it ion and never
lean against or place any part of your body
too close to the area where the airbags are
located.
- Before driving, always adjust the front seats
properly and make sure that all passengers
-
are properly restrained . ..,.

Cl 00 .-< N r-­N .-< 0 r-­Vl 00
-Never adjust the seats while the vehicle is
moving. Your seat may move unexpectedly
and you could lose control of the vehicle.
- Never drive with the backrest reclined or
tilted far back! The farther the backrests are
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the safety belt
and improper seating position .
- Children must always ride in child seats
¢page 216. Special precautions apply
when installing a child seat on the front
passenger seat ¢
page 194.
Proper seating position for the front
passenger
The proper front passenger seating position is
important for safe, relaxed driving.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
that you adjust the seat for the front passenger
to the following position:
.,. Adjust the angle of the seatback so that it is in
an upright position and your back comes in full
contact with it whenever the vehicle is moving .
.,. Keep both feet flat on the floor in front of the
front passenger seat .
.,. Fasten and wear safety belts correctly
¢ page 190.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
front passenger's seat, see ¢
page 46.
A WARNING
Front seat passengers who are unbelted, out
of position or too close to the airbag can be
seriously injured or killed by the airbag as it
unfolds . To help reduce the risk of serious
personal injury:
- Passengers must always sit in an upright po­
sition and never lean against or place any
part of their body too close to the area
where the airbags are located.
- Passengers who are unbelted, out of posi­
tion or too close to the airbag can be seri­
ously injured by an airbag as it unfolds with
great force in the blink of an eye .
Safe driving
-Always make sure that there are at least
10 in (25 cm) between the front passen­
ger's breastbone and the instrument panel.
- Always make sure that there are at least 4 in
(10 cm) between the front passenger's
knees and the lower part of the instrument
panel.
- Each passenger must always sit on a seat of
their own and properly fasten and wear the
safety belt belonging to that seat.
- Before driving, always adjust the front pas­
senger seat properly.
- Always keep your feet on the floor in front
of the seat. Never rest them on the seat, in­
strument panel, out of the window, etc . The
airbag system and safety belt will not be
able to protect you properly and can even in­
crease the risk of injury in a crash .
- Never drive with the backrest reclined or
tilted far back! The farther the backrests are
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the safety belt
and improper seating position .
- Children must always ride in child seats

passenger seat ¢
page 194.
Examples of improper seating positions
The occupant restraint system can only reduce
the risk of injury if vehicle occupants are properly
seated.
Improper seating positions can cause serious in­
jury or death. Safety belts can only work when
they are properly positioned on the body. Im­
proper seating positions reduce the effectiveness
of safety belts and will even increase the risk of
injury and death by moving the safety belt to crit­
ical areas of the body . Improper seating positions
also increase the risk of serious injury and death
when an airbag deploys and strikes an occupant
who is not in the proper seating position. A driver
is responsible for the safety of all vehicle occu-
pants and especially for children. Therefore:

Safety belts
General notes
Always wear safety belts!
Wearing safety belts correctly saves lives!
This chapter exp lains why safety be lts are neces­
sary, how they work and how to adjust and wear
them correctly.
• Read all the information that follows and heed
all of the instructions and WARNINGS.
A WARNING
Not wearing safety belts or wearing them im­
properly increases the risk of serious personal
injury and death.
- Safety belts are the s ingle most effective
means ava ilable to reduce the risk of serious
injury and death in automobile accidents.
For your protection and that of your passen­
gers, always correctly wear safety belts
when the vehicle is moving.
- Pregnant women, injured, or physically im­
paired persons must also use safety belts.
Like all vehicle occupants, they are more
likely to be seriously injured if th ey do not
wear safety belts. The best way to protect a
fetus is to protect the mother -throughout
the entire pregnancy.
Number of seats
Your veh icle has two seating positions. Each seat­
ing position has a safety belt.
A WARNING
Not wearing safety belts or wearing them im­
properly increases the risk of serious personal
injury and death.
- Never strap more than one person, includ­
ing sma ll ch ildren, into any belt.
It is espe­
ci ally da ngerous to place a safety belt over a
ch ild sitting on your lap.
- Never let more people ride in the vehicle
than there are safety belts available.
Safety belts
-Be sure everyone riding in the vehicle is
properly restrained with a separate safety
belt or child restraint.
4 Safety belt warning light
Your vehicle has a warning system for the driver
and front seat passenger to remind you about the importance of buckling up.

• Fasten your safety belt and make sure you wear
it properly.
• Make sure that your passengers also buckle up
and properly wear their safety belts.
• Protect ch ildren with a child restraint system
appropr iate for the size and age .
The warning light . in the instrument cluster
lights up when the ignit ion is switched on as a re­
minder to fasten the safety belts . In add ition, a
warning tone will sound for a certain period of
time .
Fasten your safety belt and make sure that your
passengers also properly put on their safety
belts.

- Safety belts are the single most effect ive
means available to red uce the risk of serious
i njur y and death in automobile accidents.
Fo r your protection and that of yo ur passen­
gers, always correctly wear safety belts
when the vehicle is moving .
- Fail ure to pay attention to the warning light
that comes on cou ld lead to personal injury.

Safety belts
Why safety belts?
Frontal collisions and the law of physics
Frontal crashes create very strong forces for peo­
ple riding in vehicles .
Fig . 153 Unbelted occupants in a veh icle headi ng fo r a wall
Fig. 154 T he vehicle c rashes into the wall
The physical principles are simple. Both the vehi­
cle and the passengers possess energy which var­
ies w ith vehicle speed and body weight. Engi­
neers call this energy "k inetic energy."
The higher the speed of the vehicle and the
greater the vehicle's weight, the more energy
that has to be "absorbed" in the crash.
Vehicle speed is the most significant factor .
If
the speed doubles from 15 to 30 mph (25 to 50
km/h), the energy increases 4 times!
Because the passengers of this vehicle are not us­
i ng safety belts
c::>fig. 153, they will keep moving
at the same speed the vehicle was moving just
before the crash, unti l something stops them -
here, the wall
c::> fig . 154.
The same principles apply to people sit ting in a
vehicle that is involved in a frontal collision . Even
at c ity speeds of 20 to 30 mph (30 to 50 km/h),
the forces acting on the body can reach one ton
188
(2,000 lbs, or 1,000 kg) or more . At higher
speeds, these forces are even greater.
People who do not use safety belts are also not
attached to their vehicle. In a frontal collis ion
they will also keep moving forward at the speed
their vehicle was travelling just before the crash.
Of course, the laws of physics don't just apply to
frontal collisions, they determine what happens
in all kinds of accidents and collisions .
What happens to occupants not wearing
safety belts?
In crashes unbelted occupants cannot stop
themselves from flying forward and being in­
jured or killed . Always wear your safety belts!
Fig. 155 A drive r not wea ring a safety belt is vio len tly
t hrow n fo rward
Unb elted occupants are not able to resist the tre­
mendous forces of impact by holding tight o r
bracing themselves . Without the benefit of safe­
ty restraint systems, the unrestrained occupant
will slam violently into the steering wheel, in­
strument panel, windshield, or whatever else is
i n the way
c::> fig . 155 . This impact w ith the vehi ­
cle inter ior has all the energy they had just be­
fore the crash.
Never rely on a irbags alone for protection . Even
when they deploy, a irbags provide only addit ional
protection. Airbags are not supposed to deploy in
all kinds of accidents. Although your Audi is
equipped with airbags, all veh icle occupants, in ­
cluding the driver, must wear safety belts cor­
rectly in order to minimize the risk of severe in­
ju ry or death in a crash .
Remember too, that airbags will deploy only
once and that your safety be lts are always there
IJJ,,

Cl co .... N ,....

Vl co
to offer protection in those accidents in which
airbags are not supposed to deploy or when they
have a lready deployed. Unbelted occupants can
also be thrown out of the vehicle where even
more severe or fatal injuries can occur.
Safety belts protect
People think it's possible to use the hands to
brace the body in a minor collision. It's simply
no t true!
Fig. 156 Drive r is correctly restra ined in a s udde n brak ing
ma neuver .
Safety belts used properly can make a big differ­
ence. Safety belts help to keep passengers in
their seats, gradually reduce energy levels ap ­
p lied to the body in an accident , and he lp prevent
the uncon trolled movement tha t can cause seri­
ous injur ies. In addi tion , safety belts reduce the
danger of being thrown out of the veh icle.
Safety belts attach passengers to the car and give
them the benefi t of bei ng slowed down more
gent ly or "softly" through the "give" i n the safe ty
be lts, crush zones and other safety features engi­
neered into today's vehicles . By "absorbing" the
kinetic energy ove r a longer period of time, the
safety belts make the forces on the body more
"to lerable" and less likely to cause injury.
Although these examples are based on a fronta l
coll is ion, safety belts can also substantially re­
duce th e risk of inj ury in other kinds of crashes.
So, whether you're on a long trip or just going to
the corner store, always buckle up and make sure
others do, too . Accident stat istics s how that vehi­
cle occupants properly wearing safety belts have
a lower risk of being in ju red and a much better
chance of s urviv ing a n accide nt. Prope rly us ing
Safet y bel ts
sa fety belts also great ly increases the ability of
the supp lemental airbags to do their job in a col­
li sion . For this reason, wearing a safety belt is le­
gally required in most countries including much
of the United States and Canada.
Although your Audi is equipped with airbags, you still have to wear the safety belts p rovided . Front
airbags, for example, are activated only in some
frontal collisions. The front airbags are not acti­
vated in a ll frontal collisions, i n side and rear col­
lis ions, in rollovers o r in cases where there is not
enough decelerat ion through impact to the front
of the veh icle. The same goes for the othe r air bag
systems in your Aud i. So, always wear yo ur safe ty
belt an d make sure everybody in your vehicle is
prope rly restrained!
Important safety instructions about safety
belts
Safety belts must always be correctly positioned
across the strongest bones of your body.
.,. Always wear safety belts as i llustrated and de ­
scribed in this chapter.
.,. Make sure that your saf ety be lts are always
ready for use and are not damaged.
A WARNING
Not wear ing safety be lts o r wearing t hem im­
p roperly increases the r is k of serious personal
i njury and death . Safety belts can work only
when used correctly.
- Always fasten your safety belts co rrectly be­
fore d riving off and make sure a ll passen­
ge rs a re co rrectly res trained.
- For maximum protection, safety belts must
always be positioned properly o n the body .
- Never strap more than one person, includ­
ing smal l children , into any belt .
- Never p lace a safety belt over a child sitting
on yo ur lap .
- Always keep feet in the footwe ll in front of
the seat while the veh icle is being driven .
- Never let any person ride with the ir feet on
the instrument panel or stick ing out the
window or on the seat.
