Airbag system
Your vehicle has two front and four
side airbags, one front and one side air­
bag for each front seat occupant, one side
airbag" for each rear seat occupant sitting
on the left and right rear seat.
In addition, your vehicle is equipped with
head airbags* on the left and right sides to
protect occupants seated next to the front
and rear doors. System
components
The airbag system consists of the following:
• electronic control module,
• an inflatable airbag with gas generator in­
side the steering wheel,
• an inflatable airbag with gas generator in­
side the instrument panel tor the front pas­
senger,
• supplemental side airbags in the back­
rest padding of the front and rear seats*,
• an inflatable curtain head airbag above
the doors on each side,
• an AIRB AG indicator light in the
instrument cluster ( see "Warning I Indica­
tor lights" page 125).
The indicator light in the instrument cluster
(readiness light) will light up for a few sec­
onds each time the ignition is switched on.
The light monitors the electronic control
module, sensor circuits, and system wiring. The
system must be inspected
if the indicator light:
• does not come on when the ignition is
switched on,
• does not go out after a few seconds after
the ignition is switched on, or
• comes on while driving.
In the event of a system malfunction, the in­
dicator light will stay on continuously to
serve as a constant reminder to have the
system repaired.
�W ARNING
If any of these conditions occur,
have the alrbag system inspected
immediately by your Audi Dealer.
Otherwise, the airbags in your ve­
hicle may not work properly in
case of a frontal collision or a side
impact.

---------------------CONTROLS
AND EQUIPMENT
• Certification
The remote control device complies with
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is sub­
ject to the following conditions:
1 - this device may not cause harmful in­
terfere nce, and
2 - this device must accept any interfer­
ence received, including interference
that may cause undesir ed operation.
The manufacturer is not responsible for
ANY RADIO OR TV Interference caused by
una uthorized modifications to this equip­
ment. Such modifications could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment. Anti-theft
alarm system
The anti-theft alarm system triggers an
acoustic alarm and switches on the emer­
genc y flasher if it senses unauthorized inter­
ference with the vehicle.
When the vehicle is locked the alarm sy­
stem monitors and protects the following
parts of the vehicle:
• engine compartment
• luggage compartment
• doors
• factory installed radio
• passenger compartment
• ignition.
The alarm system is switched on or off
whenever you lock or unlock the vehicle.
Simply tum the key to the lock or unlock
position or use the remote control.
The system is activated about 30 seconds
after the vehicle is locked, and the indicator
lights on the front door window sills start
flashing. The
horn sounds briefly when the car is
locked to confirm that the alarm system is
operative and that all doors, hood and rear
lid are properly closed. If the hom does not
sound, or the indicator lights do not flash,
check all doors, rear lid and hood and close
them properly. The horn will also sound if
the door, lid and hood are closed when the
system is already switched on.
The rear lid can be opened separately even
when the system is active. When the rear
lid is closed the luggage compartment will
again be included in the alarm circuit.
When the system is switched on the alarm
will be triggered if one of the doors, the en­
gine hood or the rear lid are opened, or if the
ign ition is switched on or the radio re­
moved.
When the alarm is triggered the hom
sounds and all four turn signals flash simul­
taneously. The engine cannot be started un­
til the system is switched off with the key
or the remote control.
67

CONT
ROLS AND
EQUIPMENT---------------------
If the alarm has sounded one time, and then
the vehicle is forced open again (for exam­
ple, someone tries to forcibly open a door,
and then tries to force open the rear lid), the
signal will sound once again.
You can also trigger the alarm by pressing
the PANIC switch on your remote control
to alert other people in case of emergency
or when in another difficult situation. The
alarm can be switched off by pressing the
PA NIC switch again.
Warn ing lights
After you lock the vehicle, the warning light
on the window sills will blink quickly first for
30 seconds and will then blink slowly. This
is to let you know that the anti-theft alarm
system is activated, including the interior
move ment sensors.
If the warning lights come on continuously
for about 30 seconds instead of flashing
when the vehicle is locked, this indicates
that the interior movement sensor is defec­
tive.
68 Swit
ching off the interior
movement sensors l
Yo u should switch off the interior move­
ment sensors if there is the possibility that
the alarm system could be set off, for exam­
ple by a pet left in the vehicle. •
Press the switch in the door pillar (see il­
lustration). The indicator light in the switch
will come on. The indicator light on the win­
dow sills will come on for approx imately
3 seconds. This verifies that the interior
movement sensors have been deactivat ed.
The sensors will be reactivated when you
unlo ck and lock the vehicle again.
• Lock the vehicle.
The indi cator lights in the doorpillarwill blink
quickly for approximately 3 seconds at first.
Then, after approximately 30 seconds, the
light will flash slowly.
