Steering
Manually adjustable steering wheel
The steering wheel position is fully adjus table up
and down and forward and back .
Fig. 87 Lever under the st eering column
First, adjust the driver's seat correctly.
• Pull the lever~
fig. 87 <=? .&, .
• Move the steering wheel to the desired posi
tion.
• Push the lever against the steering column un-
til it locks.
There must be at least 10 inches (25 cm) be tween your chest and the center of the steering
wheel. If you cannot sit more than 10 inches (25
cm) from the steering wheel, see if adaptive
eq uipm ent is available to help you reach the ped
als and increase the distance from the steering
wheel.
Fo r detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see
~page 60 .
.&_ WARNING
Improper use of steering wheel adjustment
and improper seating position can cause seri
ous personal injury.
- Adjust the steering wheel column only when
the vehicle is not moving to prevent loss of
vehicle control.
- Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is a minimum of 10 inches (25
cm) between your chest and the steering
wheel
~page 114, fig. 129 . If you cannot
-
Driving
maintain this minimum distance, the airbag
system cannot protect you properly.
-If phys ical limitations prevent you from sit
ting 10 inches (25 cm) or more from the
steering wheel, check with your authorized
Audi dealer to see if adaptive equipment is
available.
- If the steering wheel is aligned with your
face, the supplemental driver's airbag can
not provide as much protection in an acci
dent. Always make sure that the steering
wheel is aligned with your chest.
- Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi
tions to reduce the risk of personal injury if
the driver's airbag deploys.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position or with your hands inside
the steering wheel 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
deploys .

When stopping at a traffic signal or stopp ing in
city traffic on vehicles with an automatic trans
miss ion, the park ing brake can be applied . T he
vehicle does not have to be held with the foot
brake. The parking brak e eliminates the tendency
to creep with a drive range engaged . As soon as
you dr ive off as usual , the parking brake is re
leased automatically and the veh icle starts to
move.
Starting on sl opes
When starting on inclines, the star ting ass ist pre
vents the vehicle from unintentionally rolling back. The braking force of the parking brake is
not released until sufficient driv ing force has
been b uilt up at the whee ls .
(D Tips
For safety reasons, the park ing brake is re
leased automatically only when the dr iver's
safety belt is engaged in the buckle.
Starting off w ith a trailer
T o prevent rolling back unintentionally on an in
cline, do the following:
.,. Keep the switch@q page 77, fig . 92 pulled
and depress the accelerator . The park ing b rake
stays applied and prevents the vehicle from
ro lling bac kward .
.. You can release the switc h @ once you are su re
t h at you a re developing enough driving force at
the whee ls by depressing the acce lerator .
D epending on the weight o f the r ig (veh icle and
trai ler) and the seve rity of the in cli ne, you may
roll backwards as you sta rt. Yo u can prevent roll
i n g bac kwards by ho lding the parking brake
switch @ pulled out and acce lerating -just as
you would when starting on a hill with a conven
tional hand brake .
Driving
Emergency braking
In the event that the conventional brake system
fails or locks .
.. In an emergency, pull the sw itch @ q page 77,
fig . 92 and continue to pull it to slow your vehi
cle down with the parking brake .
.. As soon as you release the switch @ or accele r-
ate, the b ra ki ng process stops.
If you pull the switch @and hold it above a
speed of about 5 mph (8 km/h), the emergency braking function is i nitiated . The vehicle is b raked
at all fo ur whee ls by act ivati ng the hydrau lic
brake system. The br ake performan ce is s imi la r
to maki ng a n emergency stop
q &. .
In order not to act ivate the eme rgency braking by
mis take, an aud ib le warn ing tone (buz ze r)
sounds when the swi tc h @ is p ulled. As soon as
the switch @ is re lease d, or the acce le rator pedal
is depressed, emergency braking stops.
A WARNING
=
Emergency braking should on ly be used in an
emergency, when the norma l foot brake has
failed or the brake peda l is obstructed. Us ing
the parking brake to perfo rm emergency brak
ing will slow your vehicle down as if you had
made a full bra ke application . T he laws of
physics cannot be suspended ev en with ESC
and its a ssociated components (A BS, ASR,
E DS). In co rners and when road o r we ather
conditions are ba d, a f ull brake applica tion
can cause the ve hicl e to skid o r the rear end to
b reak away -risking an accident.

The speed is kept constant by modifying engine
power or through an active brake intervention.
A WARNING
-Always pay attention to the traffic around
you when the cruise control is in operation.
You are always responsible for your speed and the distance between your vehicle and
other vehicles.
Driving
- For reasons of safety , cruise control should
not be used in the city, in stop-and-go traf
fic, on twisting roads and when road condi
tions are poor (such as ice, fog, gravel, heavy ra in and hydroplaning) - risk of acci
dent .
- Turn off the cruise control temporarily when entering turn lanes , highway exit lanes or in
construction zones.
- Please note that inadvertently "resting" your foot on the accelerator pedal causes
the cruise control not to brake. This is be
cause the cr uise control is overridden by the
driver's accele rat ion.
- If a brake system malfunction such as over
heating occurs when the cruise control sys
tem is switched on, the braking function in
the system may be switched off . The other
cruise control functions remain active as
