Airbag system
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF~; light in the
headliner tells you when the front Advanced Air­
bag on the passenger side has been turned off by
the electronic control unit.
E ach time you turn on the ignition, the
PASSEN­
GER AIR BAG OFF
"1; ON@ light will come on
for a few seconds and:
- PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; will come on if
the front passenger seat is not occupied,
-PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; will come on if
t h e e lectrica l capacitance measured by the ca­
pacitive passenger detection system for the
front passenger seat equa ls the combined ca ­
pacitance of an infant up to about one year of
age and one of the rearward-facing or forward­
facing child restraints listed in Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 208 w ith which the Ad­
vanced Airbag System in your vehicle was certi­
fied. For a listing of the ch ild restraints that
were used to cert ify your vehicle 's compliance
with the U.S. Safety Standard
¢page 218.
- PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF~; will come on if
there is a small child or ch ild rest raint on the
front passenger seat,
-PASSENGER AIR BAG ON @w ill go off if the
front passenger seat is occupied by an adult as
registered by the capacitive passenger detec­
tion system ¢
page 205, Monitoring the Ad­
vanced Airbag System .
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF~; light comes on
when electrical capacitance registered on t he
front passenger seat is equa l to or less than the
combined capacitance of a typica l 1 year -o ld in­
fant and one of the rearward-facing or forward ­
facing ch ild restraints listed in Federal Motor Ve­
h icle Safety Standard 208 with wh ich the Ad­
vanced A irbag System in your vehicle was cert i­
f ie d.
If the tota l electrical capac itance registered on
the front passenger seat is more than that of a
typical 1 year-old child but less than the we ight
of a small adult, the front a irbag on the passen­
ge r side ca n deploy (the
PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF
"1; light does not come on).
If the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF "1; light does
not come on, the front a irbag on the passenger
196
side has not been turned off by the electronic
contro l unit and can deploy if the contro l unit
senses an impact that meets the conditions stor­
ed in its memory.
For example , the airbag may deploy
if:
-a small c hild that is heav ier than a typica l 1
year-old child is on the front passenger seat
(regard less of whethe r the child is in one of the
child sa fety seats listed ¢
page 218), or
- a child who has outgrown child restraints is on
the front passenger seat.
If the front passenger a irbag is turned off, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF~; light comes on in
the headliner and stays on.
If the front passenger airbag deploys, the Feder­
al Standard requires the airbag to meet the "low
r isk" dep loyment cr iteria to reduce the r isk of in­
jury through interaction w ith the airbag. "Low
risk" deployment occurs in those crashes that
take place at lower decelerations as defined in
the e lectronic contro l unit ¢
page 206, PASSEN­
GER AIR BAG
OFF~; ON~ light.
A lways remember, a child seat or infant carrier
installed on the front seat may be struck and
knocked out of position by the rapidly inflating
passenger's airbag in a frontal col lision. The air­
bag could great ly reduce the effectiveness of the
c hi ld restraint and even ser iously injure the child
during inflat io n.
A WARNING
A child in a rearward-facing child seat instal­
led on the front passenger seat will be seri­
ously injured and can be killed if the front air­
bag inflates
-even with an Advanced Airbag
System.
- The inflat ing airbag will hit the child seat or
infant carrier with great force and will
smash the child seat and child against the
backrest, center armrest, door or roof.
- Forward-facing child seats installed on the
front passenger's seat may interfere with
the deployment of the airbag and cause se­
r ious personal injury to the ch ild.

Cl 00 .-< N r-­N .-< 0 r-­Vl 00
A WARNING
If, in exceptional circumstances, you must in­
stall a forward-facing child restraint on the
front passenger's seat:
- Always make sure the forward-fac ing seat
has been designed and certified by its man­
ufacturer for use on a front seat with a pas­
senger front and s ide a irbag.
- Never put the forward-facing child restraint
up against or ve ry near the instrument pan­
el.
- Always move the front passenger seat to
the highest position in the up and down ad­
justment range and move it back to the
re ar most position in the se at's fore and aft
adjustment range, as fa r away from the air ­
bag as possib le, before insta lling the for­
ward-facing child restraint .
-Always make sure that the safety belt upper
anchorage is behind the child restraint and
not next to or in front of the chi ld restraint
so that the safety belt will be properly pos i­
t ioned.
- Make sure that the
PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF ~; light comes on and stays on a ll the
t ime whenever the ignition is switched on.
A WARNING
To red uce the risk of serious in jury, make s ure
that the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; light
w ill be displayed whenever a child restra int is
installed on the front passenge r seat and the
ign ition is swi tched on.
-If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; light
does not stay on, perfo rm the che cks descri­
bed
¢ page 205, Monitoring the Advanced
Airbag System .
-Have the airbag system inspe cte d by your
Audi dealer imme diately.
- Always caref ully follow instru ctions from
ch ild res tra int m anufa ctu rers when instal­
ling child restraints .

A WARNING
--
If, in exceptional c ircumstances, you must in­
stall a forward or rearward-facing child re­
stra int on the fron t passenger 's seat :
- Imp roper installat ion of child restraints can
reduce the ir effectiveness or even prevent
them from providing any pro tect ion .
- An improperly installed child restra int can
interfere wi th the airbag as it deploys and
serio usly injure or even kil l the chi ld -even
wit h an Advanced A irbag System.
- Always carefully follow the manufacturer's
instr uctions provided with the child seat or
earner.
- Always make sure that there is noth ing on
the front passenge r seat tha t will cause the
capacitive p assenge r de te ction system in
the sea t to signal to the Airb ag System th at
the seat is occup ied by a person when i t is
not, or to signal that it is occupied by some­
one who is heavier than the person actually
sitt ing on the seat. The presence of addi­
tional objects could cause the passenger
front ai rbag to be turned on when it should
be off, or cou ld cause the ai rbag to work in a
way that is different from the way it wou ld
h ave wo rked withou t the objec t on the seat.

bag as possib le, before insta lling the for­
ward-facing child restra int.
- Always make sure that the safety belt upper
anchorage is beh ind the child restraint and
not next to or in front of the chi ld restraint
so that the safety belt will be properly pos i­
t ioned.
- Always make sure that there is nothing on
the front passenger seat that w ill cause the
capacit ive passenger detection system in
the seat to signa l to the Airbag System that
the seat is occupied by a person w hen it is
not, or to sign al that it is occ upied by some­
one who is heavier than t he pe rson actua lly
sitting on the seat . The presence of addi­
tiona l objects could ca use the passenge r
front airbag to be turned on when it shou ld
be off, or could cause the airbag to work in a
way that is different from the way it would
have worked wi tho ut the object on t he seat .
- Make sure that the
PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF ~; light comes on and stays on all the
t ime w henever the ignition is sw itc hed on.
Advanced Airbag System components
The front passenger seat in you r vehicle has a lot
of very impo rtant parts of the Advanced Airbag
Sys tem in it. These pa rts in cl ude the capaci tive
passenger detection system, w iring, brac kets,
and more. The control unit monitors the system
on the front passenger seat when the ignition is
switched on and turns the airbag indicator light
on when a malfunct ion in the one of the system
components is detected
¢ page 206. Because
the front passenger seat contains important
pa rts of the Advanced Airbag System, you must
take ca re to prevent it from be ing damaged .
D amage to the seat may p reve nt the Advanced
A irbag System fo r the fron t passenger seat from
doi ng its job in a crash.
The front Advanced Airbag System consists
of the following :
-Cr ash sensors in the front of the vehicle t hat
measure vehicle accelerat ion/dece lerat ion to
Airbag syste m
prov ide information to the Advanced A irbag
System about the severity of the cras h.
- An electronic contro l uni t, with integrated
cras h sensors for front and side impacts . The
control unit "decides" whether to fire the front
airbags based on the information rece ived from
the crash sensors . The control unit also "de­
cides" whether the safety belt pretensioners
should be activated.
- An Advanced A irbag w it h gas generator for the
driver inside the steering wheel hub .
- An Advanced A irbag w ith gas generator inside
the instrument panel for the front passenger.
- A capacit ive passenger detection system under ­
neat h the front passenger seat cover. This sys­
tem meas ures the e lectr ica l capacitance of the
person in the seat. The informat ion registered
is sent cont inuously to the elect ronic contro l
un it to reg ulate dep loymen t of the front Ad­
vance d Airbag on the p assenger side.
- An airbag monitor ing system and ind icator
ligh t
El in the inst rument cl uste r.
- A sensor in each front seat registe rs the d is­
t ance betwee n the respective seat and the
s teer ing whee l o r i nst rument p anel. The infor­
mation registered is sent con tinuous ly to the
elect ronic contro l unit to regu late dep loyment
of the front Advanced Airbags .
- The
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF ~; lig ht comes
on and stays on in the
headliner¢ page 206,
fig. 164 and tells you when the front Advanced
Airbag on the passenger side has been turned
off.
- A sensor in the safety be lt latch for the driver
and for the front seat passenger that senses
whether that safety be lt is latched or not and
transmits this information to the e lectronic
control un it .
A WARNING
-
Damage to the front passenge r seat can pre­
vent the front airbag from wo rk ing prope rly.
- Imp roper repair or d isassembly of the front
passenger and driver seat will p reve nt the

in fact is not, or that the person on the seat
is heavier than he or she actually is. The
c h ange in electric capac itance b ecause o f
such obj ects can caus e the passenger front
airbag to be turned on when it should be
off, or can cause the a irbag to wo rk in a way
that is diffe rent from the way it would have
wor ked witho ut objec ts on the se at.
- Always make sure that the re is nothing on
the fron t passenger sea t that w ill cause the
c apa citi ve passenger dete ction system in
the seat to sign al to the Airbag Sys tem tha t
the seat is occupied by a person when it is not, or to signa l that it is occ upied by some­
one who is heavier than the person actually
sitting on the seat. The presence of an ob­
ject could cause the passenger front a irbag
to be t urned on when it sho uld be off, or
cou ld cause the ai rbag to wo rk in a way that
is d ifferent from the way it wou ld have
wor ked witho ut the ob je ct on the seat.
A WARNING
The fine dust cre ate d when air bag s d eploy can
c ause bre athing problems for peop le w ith a
history of asthma or other breathing condi ­
tions .
- T o reduce the risk of brea thing pro blems,
those w ith asthma or other respiratory con ­
ditions should get fresh air right away by
gett ing out of the veh icle or opening w in­
dows o r doors.
- If you are in a collision in which airbags de­
ploy, wash your hands and face with mild
soap and water before eat ing.
- Be careful not to get the dust into your eyes,
