passengers and the safe operation of the vehicle
at all times.
For your own safety and the safety of your pas­
sengers, always note the following points before
every trip:
.,. Make sure that all lights and turn signals are
working properly.
.,. Check the tyre pressures.
.,. Make sure that all windows are clean and give
good visibility to the outside.
.,. Secure all luggage and other items carefully
¢page 201.
.,. Make sure that no objects can interfere with the
pedals.
.,. Adjust
the mirrors and the front seat according
to your body height.
.,. Make sure that children are protected with suit­
able safety seats and properly worn seat belts
¢page 195.
.,. Sit in the correct position in your seat. Make
sure that your passengers are sitting in the cor­
rect positions ¢ page 46 .
.,. Fasten your seat belt correctly. Make sure that
your passengers do the same ¢page 204.
What factors can impair your safety?
Safety on the road is directly related to how you
drive, and can also be affected by the passengers
in the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for the safety of the ve­
hicle and all its occupants. If your ability to drive
is impaired in any way, you endanger yourself and
other road users ¢& . Therefore:
.,. Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers
or by using a mobile phone, etc.
.,. Never drive when your driving ability is im­
paired (by medication, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
.,. Obey all traffic regulations and speed limits
and always maintain a safe distance to the vehi-
� de
in front.
� .,.
Always adjust your speed to suit the road, traf-
� fie
and weather conditions.

.,. Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive
for more than two hours without a stop.
.,. If possible, avoid driving when you are tired or
stressed.
A WARNING
- Distractions while driving or any kind of im­
pairment to your driving ability increase the
risk of accident and injury .
- Do not place loose objects on the dash pan­
el. These objects could fly around the interi­
or when the vehicle is moving (under accel­
eration or whilst cornering) and distract the
driver -risk of accident!

.. Adjust the longitudinal position of the steering
wheel so that your arms are slightly bent and
you can read the dials and instruments easily.
.. Make sure that you can comfortably reach the
top of the steering wheel.
.. Fasten
your seat belt correctly ¢ page 204 .
.. Keep both feet in the footwell so that you are in
full control of the vehicle at all times.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see¢ page 46, Seats and storage.
A WARNING
A driver who is not sitting in the correct posi­
tion or who is not wearing a seat belt can be
fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel
so there is a distance of at least 25 cm be­
tween your breastbone and the centre of the
steering wheel¢ Fig. 172.
- While driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
rim at about the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tion. This reduces the risk of injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or with your hands inside
the rim or on the steering wheel hub. This
could result in serious injuries to the arms,
hands and head if the driver's airbag in­
flates.
- To reduce any risk of injury to the driver dur­
ing a sudden brake application or in an acci­
dent, never drive with the backrest tilted
too far back. The airbag system and seat
belts can only provide proper protection
when the backrest is in an upright position
and the driver is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the belt webbing
or an incorrect sitting position.
194 Correct
position for the front passenger
The front seat passenger must sit at least 25 cm
away from the dash panel so that the airbag has
enough room to inflate and give maximum pro­
tection in an accident.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
adjusting the front passenger's seat as follows:
.. Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery .
.. Keep both feet in the footwell in front of the
seat.
.. Fasten your seat belt correctly ¢ page 206.
In exceptional cases you can disable the front
passenger's airbag via the key-operated switch*
¢page 211.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
front passenger's seat, see ¢ page 46, Seats and
storage.
A WARNING
A passenger who is not sitting in the correct
position or who is not wearing a seat belt can
be fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the front passenger's seat so there is
a distance of at least 25 cm between your
breastbone and the dash panel.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is moving; never rest them on the in­
strument panel, out of the window or on the
seat. If you sit in an incorrect position, you
increase your risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking or an accident. If the airbag
is triggered, you could sustain potentially
fatal injuries by sitting out of position.
- To reduce the risk of injury to the front pas­
senger in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, the passenger should never travel
in a moving vehicle with the backrest re­
clined. The airbag system and seat belt can
only provide proper protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
passenger is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is

Fastening rings
Unsecured loads are a hazard to all vehicle occu­
pants.
Fig. 180 Location of fastening rings in luggage compart­
ment
.,. Use the fastening rings to secure items safely in
the luggage compartment ¢ A in Luggage
compartment on page 201.
During a collision or an accident, even small and
light objects can possess so much energy that
they can cause very severe injuries. The amount
of this "kinetic energy" depends on the speed of
the vehicle and the weight of the object. The
most significant factor, however, is the speed of
the vehicle.
For example: an object weighing 4.5 kg is lying
unsecured in the vehicle. During a frontal colli­
sion at a speed of SO km/h, this object generates
a force corresponding to 20 times its weight.
That means that the effective weight of the ob­
ject increases to about 90 kg. You can imagine
the severity of the injuries which might be sus­
tained if this "projectile" strikes an occupant as it
flies through the passenger compartment.
A WARNING
If items of luggage or other objects are se­
cured to the fastening rings with inappropri­
ate or damaged tensioning straps, injuries
could result in the event of sudden braking or
a collision.
- To prevent pieces of luggage or other ob­
jects from flying forward, always use appro­
priate tensioning straps which are properly
secured to the fastening rings.
202 -
Never secure a child seat on the fastening
rings.
Pedestrian protection
system
Description
Applies to vehicles: with pedestrian protection system
The pedestrian protection system will automati­
cally be activated when the front of the vehicle
collides with a pedestrian. The bonnet is raised
several centimetres to create an additional crush
zone above the engine.
The sensors of the pedestrian protection system
are located in the front bumper. In rare cases, the
system can be triggered because the possibility
that a pedestrian has been hit cannot be ruled
out by the sensors, for example:
- in a coll ision with a street post,
- in a collision with an animal, or
- if you drive into a pile of snow, or
- in the event of ground contact, e.g. when driv-
ing on extremely poor road surfaces.
If the system has been activated, press the bon­
net back into its original position¢&. in Servic­
ing the pedestrian protection system on
page 203 and have the system serviced by a
qualified workshop.
.&_ WARNING
- Never change or replace the bumper or bon­
net as a part of tuning measures. This can
impair the effectiveness of the pedestrian
protection system and invalidate the operat­
ing permit for your vehicle. The manufactur­
er cannot be held liable for damage which
occurs as a result of failure to comply with
these stipulations, and such damage is not
covered under warranty.
- False activation of the pedestrian protection
system is possible.

system
an occupant strikes parts of the interior or ob­
jects outside the vehicle with their head. By re­
ducing the head impact and restraining uncon­
trolled movement of the head, the airbag also
reduces the forces acting on the neck.
The front airbags, side airbags and head-protec­
tion airbags may be triggered together in certain
types of accident.
In order to provide the desired extra protection in
an accident, the airbags have to inflate extremely
rapidly (within fractions of a second). The airbag
releases a fine dust when it inflates. This is quite
normal and does not mean there is a fire in the
vehicle.
Important safety notes on the head­
protection airbags
Applies to vehicles: with head-protection airbags
There are a number of safety points concerning
the airbag system which you should remember.
This will help to reduce the risk of injury in an ac­
cident.
A WARNING
- It is important to ensure that the area
around the openings for the head-protec­
tion airbags remains unobstructed at all
times, so that the airbags can inflate prop­
erly if needed.
- The built-in coat hooks should only be used
for lightweight clothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets.
When using the coat hooks, do not hang the
clothes on coat hangers.
- The space between the passengers and the
head-protection airbags must never be oc­
cupied by children, other passengers or
pets. Passengers should never lean out or
put a hand or arm out of the window while
the vehicle is in motion.
- Do not move the sun visors out to cover the
side windows if there is anything attached
to them (such as pens or a remote control
for the garage door). These objects could
cause injury if the head-protection airbag is
triggered.
216 -
The sensors for the airbags are located in
the doors. You must therefore not make any
modifications to the doors or door trim (e.g.
retrofitting loudspeakers), as this could im­
pair the function of the side airbags. Any
damage to the doors could lead to faults in
the system. Repairs or any other work on
the doors must therefore always be carried
out by a qualified workshop.
- If unsuitable accessories are installed near
the head-protection airbag, the protection
afforded by the airbag can be seriously im­
paired if the system is triggered. When the
head-protection airbag opens, parts of
these accessories could be thrown into the
vehicle and injure passengers ¢ page 260.
- Any work involving the head-protection air­
bags, or removal and installation of the air­
bag components for other repairs (such as
repairs to the roof liner), must always be
performed by a qualified workshop. Other­
wise the airbag system may fail to work
properly.

Fuel Petrol grade
Applies to vehicles: with petrol engine
The correct grade of petrol is listed inside the
fuel tank flap.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter
and must only be run on unleaded petrol. The
petrol must comply with the EN 228 or DIN
51626-1 standard and must be sulphur-free. You
can fuel your vehicle with fuels containing a max­
imum of 10% ethanol (ElO). The petrol grades
have different octane ratings (RON).
The following headings relate to the sticker on
the inside of your vehicle's tank flap:
Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ 95 Super,
Premium or min. RON/ROZ 91 Normal
The use of premium petrol (95 RON) is recom­
mended. If that type of fuel is not available, reg­
ular petrol (RON 91) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
Unleaded fuel only, min. RON/ROZ 95 Super,
Premium
Premium petrol (at least 95 RON) must be used.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can
be run on regular petrol with 91 RON as an emer­
gency measure. In this case only use moderate
engine speeds and a light throttle. Fill up with
premium or Super Plus petrol as soon as possi­
ble.
Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ 98 Super Plus
or min. RON/ROZ 95 Super, Premium
The use of Super Plus petrol (98 RON) is recom­
mended. If that type of fuel is not available, pre­
mium petrol (RON 95) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can

CD CAUTION
- Do NOT fuel your vehicle with high-ethanol
fuel blends (e.g. ESQ or E85). This will dam­
age the fuel system.
- Just one tank of leaded fuel or fuel with
metallic additives will permanently impair
the efficiency of the catalytic converter.
- You should use only petrol additives which
have been approved by Audi. Additives with
so-called octane boosters or antiknock addi­
tives can contain metallic additives that
cause significant damage to the engine and
the catalytic converter. Do not use such ad­
ditives.
- Metal-based fuels, which can be identified
from the marking on the fuel dispenser,
must not be used. LRP fuel (lead replace­
ment petrol) also contains high concentra­
tions of metallic additive. Risk of engine
damage!
- High engine speed and full throttle can
damage the engine when using petrol with
an octane rating lower than the correct
grade for the engine.
«'.D Note
- You can use higher octane fuel than your en­
gine requires.
- In countries where sulphur-free fuel is not
available, you may use low-sulphur fuel in­
stead.
Diesel fuel
Applies to vehicles: with diesel engine
Please note the information on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
The use of sulphur-free diesel to EN 590 is rec­
ommended. If that type of fuel is unavailable,
diesel to EN 590 can be used. It must have ace­
tane number (CN) of at least 51. The cetane
number indicates the ignition quality of the die-
sel fuel.

systems
Catalytic converter
Applies to vehicles with petrol engine: The vehi­
cle must only be used with unleaded petrol; oth­
erwise the catalytic converter will be irreparably
damaged.
Never allow the fuel tank to run completely dry,
as the irregular supply of fuel can cause misfir­
ing. This allows unburnt fuel to enter the exhaust
system, which can cause overheating and dam­
age to the catalytic converter.
Diesel particulate filter
Applies to vehicles with diesel engine: The die­
sel particulate filter can filter out almost all soot
particles contained in the exhaust gas. In normal
driving conditions the filter is self-cleaning.
Should the self-cleaning function of the filter not
be able to operate, e.g. when the vehicle is con­
tinuously used only for short trips, the filter be-
220 comes
obstructed with soot and the symbol Cl
for the diesel particulate filter lights up
¢page 15.
A WARNING
The exhaust system is very hot when the vehi­
cle is being driven and after the engine has
been switched off.
- Never touch the tailpipes when they are hot
- risk of burns!
- Because of the high temperatures which can
occur in the emission control system (cata­
lytic converter or diesel particulate filter),
do not park the vehicle where the exhaust
can come into contact with flammable ma­
terials under the car (e.g. on grass or at the
forest edge) -risk of fire!
- Do not apply any undersea[ agents in the
area around the exhaust system -risk of
fire!
