Driving safety
The rollbars, reinforced windshield frame and
belt tensioners help protect front and rear pas­
sengers in the event of a rollover.
The rollover protection system functions when
the power top is both open and closed.
A WARNING
-
- Do not use the area behind the rear seat
head restraints
c::> fig. 231 as a seat or stor­
age area. This is the area where the rollbars deploy. If the rollover protection system is
triggered, objects placed there can be pro ­
pelled through the vehicle and make it more
difficult for the rollbars to deploy . This
in­
creases the risk for serious or life-threaten­
ing injuries.
- Do not remove the head restraints. Driving
with the head restraints removed or adjust­
ed incorrectly increases the risk of serious
injury.
When is rollover protection deployed?
A ppl ies to: ve hicles w ith power to p
Rollover protection deploys in a collision or roll­
over .
Depending on the collision, sensors throughout
the vehicle and the control module trigger the rollover system to deploy.
For safety reasons, rollover protection also
de ­
ploys during front , side and rear collisions above
a certain level of severity.
A WARNING
- The rollover protection system can only pro­
vide protection for one collision.
If the roll­
over protection was triggered, have it re­
placed immediately by an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
- Modifying the rollover protection system or individual components is not permitted.
- Work on the rollover protection system
should only be performed by an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili­
ty. Otherwise the system may not function
correctly in a collision or it could deploy
un­
expectedly .
266
(D Note
-Every repair procedure on the rollover pro­
tection system must be performed by an au ­
thori zed Audi dealer or authori zed Audi
Service Facility, that will perform work ac­
cording to Audi factory specifications . Incor ­
rect repairs may impair the functionality
and may void the vehicle's operating
li­
cense .
- The respective safety precautions must be
followed when disposing of individual com­ ponents from the system or the entire vehi­
cle. An authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility is familiar with these
specifications and the procedures can be
handled there.
