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.

For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
that you adjust the driver's seat to the following
position :
,.. Adjust the driver's seat so that you can easily
push the pedals all the way to the floor wh ile
k eeping your knee(s) s lightly bent
c:> .&_ .
,.. 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.
180
,.. 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
¢
page 216. Special precautions apply
when installing a child seat on the front
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:
IJJ,,

Safe dri ving
~ Never allow anyone to assume an incorrect
seating position when the vehicle is being used
¢A .
The fo llowing bulletins list only some sample po­
sitions that wi ll increase the risk of serious injury
and deat h. Our hope is that these examples wi ll
make you more aware of seating positions that
are dangerous.
Therefor e, when ever th e veh icle is mo ving :
-never stand up in t he vehicle
- never s tand on the seats
- never knee l on the seats
- never r ide with the seatback reclined
- never lie down on the seats
- never lean up against the instrument pane l
- never sit on the edge of the seat
- never sit sideways
- never lean out the w indow
- never put you r feet out the window
- never put your feet on the instrument panel
- never rest your feet on the sea t cushion or back
of the seat
- never ride in the footwell
- never ride in the cargo area
A WARNING
Improper seat ing posit ions increase the r isk
of serious personal injury and deat h whenever
a vehicle is being used .
- Always make sure that a ll vehicle occupants
stay in a proper seat ing pos ition and are
properly restra ined whenever the vehicle is
being used .
Driver and passenger

Important safety instructions
A WARNING
Alw ays ma ke sure that t he knee ai rbag can in ­
flate without interferen ce. Obje cts between
yourse lf and the airbag can increase the risk
of injury in an accident by interfering with the
182
way the airbag dep loys o r by being pushed in ­
to you as the airbag dep loys.
- No persons (chi ldren) o r anima ls should ride
in the footwell in front of the passenger
seat.
If the airbag deploys, this can resu lt in
serious or fatal injuries.
- No objects of any kind should be carried in the footwell area in front of the dr iver's or
passenger's seat . Bu lky objects (shopping
bags, for examp le) can hamper or prevent
proper dep loyment of the a irbag. Sma ll ob­
jects ca n be thrown th ro ugh t he ve hicle if
the airbag deploys a nd injur e you or your
p a sse ngers.
Pedal area
Pedals
The pedals must always be free to move and
must never be interfered with by a floor mat or
any other object.
Make sure that all pedals move free ly without in ­
terference and t hat nothing prevents them from
returning to their orig inal positions .
Only use floor mats t hat leave the pedal area free
and can be secured with floor mat fasteners.
If a bra ke circuit fails , in creased bra ke pedal trav ­
el is req uired to b ring the vehicle to a fu ll stop.
A WARNING
Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss
of vehicle contro l and increase the risk of se ri­
ous injury .
- Never p lace any objects in the driver's foot ­
we ll. An object could get into the peda l area
and interfere with pedal funct ion. In case of
sudden b raking or an acc ident, you would
not be able to brake or acce lerate!
- Always make sure that nothing can fall or move into the driver's footwel l.
