Child sa fety
Advanced front airbag system and children
Your veh icle is equipped w ith a front "Advanced
A irbag System" in comp liance w it h United States
F edera l Motor Vehicle Safety Standard ( FMVSS)
208, as well as Canada Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (CMVSS) 208 as applicable at the time
your vehicle was manufactured.
The Advanced Airbag system in your veh icle has
been certified to meet the " low-risk" require ­
ments for 3- and 6-year old children on the pas­
senger side and small adults on the driver side.
The low risk deployment criteria are intended to
reduce the risk of injury through interaction with
the airbag that can occur, for example, by being
too close to the steering wheel and instrument
panel when the a irbag inflates. In addit ion, the
system has been certified to comply w ith the
" su ppress io n" req uirements of the Safety S tand­
ard, to tu rn off the front airbag for infants up to
12 months who are restrained on the front pas­
senger seat in child restraints that are listed in
the Standard.
E ven tho ugh yo ur vehicle is equipped with an
Ad a
vanced Airbag system, a chi ld should a lways ride
in the seat proper ly restrained for its age and
size. The airbag on the passenger side makes the
front seat a potentially dangerous p lace for a
child to r ide . The front seat is not the safest place
for a child in a forward-facing child safety seat .
It
can be a very dange rous place for a n infant or a
larger child in a rearward-fac ing seat.
The vehicle's Advanced Airbag System has a ca­
pac itive passenger detect ion system in the front
passenger seat cush ion that ca n detect the pres­
ence of a baby or a child in a ch ild restraint sys­
tem on t his seat .
The capac it ive passenger detect ion system regis ­
ters the changes that result in an electr ical field
when a c hild, a child restra int, and a baby blanket
a re on the front passenge r seat. The change in
t he meas ured capacitance due to t he p resence o f
a child, a chi ld restraint, and a baby b lanket on
the front passenger seat is re lated to the chi ld
restraint system resting on the seat . The meas ­
ured capacitance of a ch ild restraint system var-
218
ies depending on the type of system and specific
make and mode l.
The elect rical capac ita nce of the va rious types,
makes, and models of child restra in ts speci fied
by the U.S . National Highway Tra ffic Safety Ad­
ministration (NHTSA) in the relevant safety
standard are stored in the Advanced Airbag Sys ­
tem control unit together with the capacitances
typ ica l of infants and a 1-year old child. When a
c hi ld restraint is used on the front passenger
seat w it h a typical 1 year-old infant, t he Ad­
vanced Airbag System compares the capacitance measured by the capacitive passenge r detect ion
system wi th the data stored in the e lec tronic co n­
tro l unit .
Child restraints and Advanced front airbag
system
Regardless of the ch ild restraint that you use,
make sure that it has been certified to meet Safe­
ty Standards and has been cert ified by its manu ­
factu rer for use w ith an airbag . If in exceptional
c ir cumstances you m ust use it on the front pas­
senger seat, ca refully read all of the information
o n chi ld safety and Advanced Airbags and heed
a ll of th e app licab le WARNINGS . Make certain
that the chi ld and chi ld restraint are correctly
recognized by the capacitive passenger detection
system in the front passenger seat, that the front passenger a irbag is turned off, and that the air­
bag status is always correct ly signa led by the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; light.
Many types and models of child restra ints have
been available over the years, new models are in­
troduced regularly incorporating new and im­
proved designs and older models are taken out of
production . Ch ild rest rai nts are not standa rdized .
Child res tra ints of the same type typically have
d iffe rent weights and sizes and diffe re nt "foot ­
pr ints", the size and shape o f th e bo ttom of the
ch ild restraint that sits on the seat, w hen they
are installed on a vehicle seat . These differences
make it virtua lly impossib le to certify comp liance
with the requirements for advanced a irbags w ith
each and every child restra int that has ever been
sold in the past or will be sold over the course of
the useful life of your veh icle .

dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility to
have excess eng ine oil extracted if necessa­

@ Tips
The engine oil consumption may be up to
0.5 quart/600 miles (0.5 liter/1,000 km), de­
pending on driving style and operat ing condi­
tions. Consumption may be hig her during the
first 3,000 m iles (5,000 km) . Because of th is,
the engine o il level must be checked reg ular­
l y .
It is best to check each time you refuel
your vehicle and befo re long drives.
- In order to prov ide effec tive lubrication and
cooling of internal engine components, a ll
internal combustion engines consume acer­
tain amount of oil. Oil consumption var ies
from engine to engine and may change sig­ nificantly over the life of the engine . Typi­
cally, eng ines with a specified break-in peri­
od consume more oil during the break-in pe­
r iod than they consume after oil consump­
tion has stabilized .
- Under normal condit ions, the rate of oil
consumption depends on the quality and
viscos ity of the oil, the RPM (revolutions per
m in ute) at which the engine is operated, the
ambient temperatu re and road conditions .
Further factors a re t he amo unt of oi l di lu­
t ion from water condensat ion or fue l resi­
due and the oxidation level of the oil. As any
eng ine is subject to wear as m ileage builds
up, the oil consumption may increase over
time until replacement of worn components may become necessary.
- With all these var iables coming into play,
no standard rate of o il consumption can be
established or specified. There is no alterna­
t ive to check ing the oil leve l regularly and
frequently.
- If you have the impression your engine con­
sumes excessive amounts of oil, we recom­
mend that you consult a n author ized Audi
dea le r to have the cause of your conc ern
properly diagnosed. Keep in mind tha t the
