Important  safety  instructions  about 
safety  belts 
Safety  belts  must always  be correctly posi
tioned  across  the  strongest  bones  of your 
body. 
~ Always wear  safety  belts  as  illustrated  and 
described  in this  chapter. 
~ Make sure  that  your  safety  belts  are  always 
ready  for  use  and  are  not  damaged. 
A WARNING 
Not wearing  safety  belts  or wearing  them 
improperly  increases  the  risk of  serious 
personal  injury  and  death.  Safety  belts can 
work  only when  used  correctly. 
- Always  fasten your  safety  be lts  correctly 
before  driving  off and  make  sure  all  pas
sengers  are  correctly  restrained. 
- For maximum  protection,  safety  belts  must  always  be  positioned  properly  on 
the  body . 
- Never  strap  more  than  one  person,  in
cluding  small  children,  into any  belt. 
- Never  place  a  safety  belt  over  a  child  sit ting  on  your  lap. 
- Always keep  feet  in the  footwell  in front 
of the  seat  while  the  vehicle  is being  d  riv

- Never  let  any  person  ride with  their  feet 
on the  instrument  panel  or  sticking  out 
the  window  or  on  the  seat. 
- Never  remove  a  safety  belt  while  the  ve

your  risk of  be ing  injured  or  killed. 
- Never wear  belts  twisted. 
- Never wear  belts  over  rigid  or  breakable 
objects  in or on  your  clothing,  such  as

- Never  allow  safety  belts  to  become  dam
aged  by being  caught  in door  or  seat

tion .  Safety  belts 
143 
- Several  layers  of  heavy clothing  may  in
terfere  with  correct  positioning  of  belts  and  reduce  the  overall  effectiveness  of 
the  system . 
- Always keep  belt  buckles  free  of  anything 
that  may  prevent the  buckle  from  latch
ing securely . 
- Never  use  comfort  clips  or  devices that 
create  slack  in the  shoulder  belt . Howev
er,  special  clips  may be  requ ired  for  the 
proper  use of  some  child  restraint sys
tems . 
- Torn or frayed  safety  belts  can  tear,  and 
damaged  belt  hardware  can  break  in an 
accident.  Inspect  belts  regularly. 
If web
bing , bindings,  buckles,  or  retractors  are 
damaged,  have  belts  replaced  by an  au
thorized  Audi dealer  or qualified  work
shop. 
- Safety  belts that  have  been  worn  and 
loaded  in an  accident  must  be  replaced 
with  the  correct  replacement  safety  belt 
by an  authorized  Audi  dealer. Replace
ment  may  be  necessary  even  if damage 
cannot  be  clearly  seen . Anchorages  that 
were  loaded  must  also  be  inspected. 
- Never  remove,  modify,  disassemble,  or 
try  to  repair  the  safety  belts  yourself. 
- Always keep  the  belts  clean.  Dirty belts 
may  not  work  properly  and  can  impair 
the  function  of  the  inertia reel~

Automatic  safety  belt  retractors 
Every safety  belt  is equipped  w ith  an  automat

ture  locks  the  be lt  whe n the  belt  is  pulled  out 
fast,  during  hard  braking  and  i n an  accident.

.,& WARNING 
Improperly  positioned  safety  belts  can 
cause  serious  injury  in an  accident 
¢ page  144,  Safety  belt  position. 
- Safety  belts  offer  optimum  protection 
only  when  the  seatback  is upright  and 
belts  are  properly  posit ioned  on  the 
body  . 
- Always  make  sure  that  the  rear  seat 
backrest  to  which  the  center  rear  safety 
belt*  is  attached  is  securely  latched 
wheneve r the  rea r center  safety  belt  is 
being  used. 
If the  backrest  is  not  secu re
ly latched,  the  passenger  will  move  for
ward  with  the  back rest  dur ing  sudden 
brak ing,  in a  sudden  maneuver  and  espe
cially  in a  crash. 
- Never  attach  the  safety  bel t to  the  buck
le  for  another  seat.  Attaching  the  belt  to 
the  wrong  buckle  will  reduce  safety  be lt 
effectiveness  and  can  cause  serious  per
sonal  injury . 
- A passenger  who  is  not  proper ly restrain
ed  can  be  seriously  injured  by the  safety  belt  itself  when  it  moves  from  the  stron
ger  parts  of the  body  into  cr itical  areas 
like the  abdomen . 
- Always lock the  convertible  locking  re
