SAFETY RRST---------------------------------------------------
How to wear safety belts
properly
Safety belts must always be prop­
erly positioned across the strongest
bones of your body.
�W ARNING
Always fasten your safety belts
before driving off. Always make
sure your passengers are properly
restra ined -even those sitting in
the rear.
Safety belts can work only when
used properly. Never wear safety
belts in any other way than illus­
trated and described in this sec­
tion. Always observe the follow­
ing precautions:
• Never wear belts twisted.
18 '41
WARNING continued
• Never strap more than one par­
son, including small children, into
any belt. It is especially dangerous
to place a safety belt over a child
sitting on your lap.
• Never place your feet on the in­
strument panel or on the seat.
Always keep both feet on the floor
in front of the seat.
• Never wear belts over rigid or
breakable objects in or on your
clothing, such as eye glasses,
pens, keys, etc., as these may
cause injury.
• Do not wear the shoulder part of
the belt under your arm or other­
wise out of position.
• Several layers of heavy clothing
may interfere with proper posi­
tioning of belts and reduce the
overall effectiveness of the sys­
tem. �
WARNING continued
• Never allow safety belts to be­
come damaged by being caught in
door or seat hardware. Always
keep belt buckles free of any ob­
struction that may prevent secure
locking.
• Never use comfort clips or de­
vices that create slack in the
shoulder belt portion. However,
clips may be required for the
proper use of some child restraint
systems.
• To rn or frayed safety belts can
tear and damaged belt hardware
can break in an accident. Inspect
belts periodically.
If belts show damage to webbing,
bindings, buckles. or retractors,
have them replaced.

fh1
WARNING continued
• Keep the belts clean.
Dirty belts may not work properly
- see also .. Cleaning and protec­
tion .. page 218.
• Safety belts that have been
worn and loaded in an accident
must be replaced with the correct
replacement safety belt by an au­
thorized Audi Dealer. Replace­
ment may be necessary even if
damage cannot be clearly seen.
• Safety belt anchorages that
have been loaded in an accident
must be inspected by a qualified
workshop or an authorized Audi
Dealer.
• Never modify. disassemble, or
try to repair your safety belts. Seating capacity
Your Audi has 5 seating positions, 2 in the
front and 3 in the rear. Each seating position
has a safety belt.
�W ARNING
Never let more people ride in the
vehicle than there are seat belts
available. Be sure everyone riding
in the vehicle is correctly re­
strained with a separate seat belt. SA
FETY FIRST
Lap- shoulder belt
The front and rear seats are equipped with
three-point safety belts.
The three-point belts in the front passenger
and rear positions each have a convertible
locking feature in addition to the emergency
locking feature. The convertible locking fea­
ture is used when a child seat is installed,
see page 51.
The retractors in the combination lap-shoul­
der belts allow the system to adjust to your
size and movements as long as the pull on
the belt is slow.
Hard braking or a collision locks the belt. The
belt will a I so lock when you drive up or down
a steep hill or in a sharp curve.
19

SA
FETY RRST-----------------------------------------------------
Fastening the safety belt
• Adjust your seat before fastening
the safety belt. See page 76.
� WARN ING
Safety belts offer optimum protec­
tion only when the seat back is up­
right and belts are properly posi­
tioned on the body. Improperly
positioned safety belts can cause
serious personal injury in an acci­
dent.
20 •
To fasten, grasp belt tongue and pull the
belt in a continuous slow motion across
your chest and lap.
• Insert the belt tongue into the buckle on
the inboard side of the seat. Push down un­
til it is securely locked with an audible click.
Pull belt to check!
� WARNING
• Always make sure the safety
belt tongue is inserted into the
buckle for the same seating posi­
tion.
• Att aching the safety belt to the
buckle for another seat could re­
duce safety belt effectiveness and
cause injury. Adjusting
shoulder seat belt
Belt height adjustment front seats
Safety belt height adjustors for the
front seats can be used to adjust the
height of the shoulder portion of the safety
belt. This feature will help you properly posi­
tion the shoulder portion of the safety belt
across your shoulder.
• Press the handle slowly up or down so
that the shoulder portion of the safety belt
is positioned nearly midway over the shoul­
der.
• Pull on the shoulder belt to check
whether the belt anchor is securely locked
in place.

For
occupants who may be smaller, the
position of the belt should be adjusted by
placing the belt in the guide, if otherwise the
belt would run across the wearer's neck
instead of over the center of the shoulder
(see illustration).
If the occupant moves a long way to one
side and the belt slides out of the gu id e . it
must be placed back in the guide by hand. Convert
ible Locking Retractor
(CLR)
The convertible locking retractor is neces­
sary to secure child restraint systems.
The retractors for the front passenger's seat
and the rear seat three point safety belts are
equipped with an automatic locking feature
in addition to the emergency locking fea­
ture.
If you need to install a child restraint system
on the front passenger's seat or on one of
the rear seats, it must be secured by use of
the belt after activating the locking feature
-see pages 32 and 51 for important safety
information related to the use of child re­
straints on the front seat.
Activating the locking retractor
• Slowly pull the belt all the way out.
• Insert the belt tongue into the buckle for
tha t seating position (pull on it to check!)
a n d guide the rest of the belt with your hand
back in place; while doing this you should
hear a clicking sound. This sound signals
that the locking retractor has been acti­
vated. SA
FETY FIRST
Deactivating the locking retractor
The locking retractor is deactivated by un­
fas te n ing the safety belt and allowing the
safety belt to retract completely to its
stowed position. The safety belt can now be
used as an ordinary three-point safety belt
without the additional locking feature.
If a person sitting In the passenger
seat or rear wearing the safety belt
should activate the locking retrac­
tor. then the safety belt must be un­
fastened in order to deactivate the
locking retractor.
� WARN ING
Never unfasten the safety belt to
deactivate the locking retractor
while the vehicle is in motion. You
would not be protected at all and
could suffer serious injury in an ac­
cident.

-----------------------------------------------------SAFETY RRST
�W ARNING
• Never sit closer than 10 inches
(25 em) to the stee ring wheel.
• If you cannot sit more than
10 inches (25 em) from the steer­
ing wheel, we recommend that
you investigate whether adaptive
equipment may be available to
help you reach the pedals and in­
crease your seating distance from
the steering wheel.
Adjusting the steering wheel
For detailed steps for adjusting the steering
wheel please see "Adjustable steering col­
umn" page 98.
Adjust the steering wheel so that the steer­
ing wheel and airbag cover points at your
chest and not at your face. The steer ing
wheel should be adjusted so that you can
hold the outer rim of the steering wheel
comfortably with your hands at the 3 o'clock
and 9 o'clock positions. �W
ARNING
• Pointing the steering wheel to­
ward your face decreases the abil­
ity of the supplementa l driver's air­
bag to protect you in an accident.
• Holding the steering wheel the
wrong way can cause serious inju­
ries to the hands, arms and head if
the driver's airbag inflates.
• Never hold the steering wheel at
the 12 o'clock position or with
your hands at other positions in­
side the steering wheel rim or on
the steering wheel hub.
Adjusting the passenger's seat
For detailed steps for adjusting the pas­
senger's seat please see "Front Seats" on
page 76.
We recommend that you adjust the passen­
ger's seat as follows:
- backrest upright (never reclined)
place your feet on the floor in front of the
passenger's seat adjust
the passenger's seat as far as pos­
sible to the rear of the fore and aft adjust-
1)1ent range.
�W ARNING
• Always keep both feet on the
floor in front of the seat.
• Never place your feet on the in­
strument panel or on the seat. If
the airbag inflates and your feet
are on the instrument panel or on
the seat, your could receive seri­
ous personal injuries.
Some other important points to
know
Because airbags inflate in the blink of an eye
with great force, things you have on your lap
or have placed on the seat could become
dangerous projectiles and be pushed into
you if the airbag inflates.
Always head all WARNINGS
on next page.

Securing a child seat
Convertible Locking Retractor
The retractors for the rear seat three-po int
safety belts and the front passenger three­
point safety belt have a conver tible locking
feature in addition to the emergency locking
feature.
If you need to install a child seat at an outer
seating position, you must first activate the
conver tible locking feature. Then secure the
child seat by using the seat belt. �W
ARNING
• Never install rear-facing child
seats or infant carriers on the front
passenger seat. A child will be se­
riously injured and can be killed
when the passenger airbag in­
flates.
• The inflating airbag will hit the
child seat or infant carrier with
great force and will smash the
child seat and child against the
backrest. center arm rest. or door.
• Always install rear-facing child
seats or infant carriers on the rear
seat if the front passenger airbag
has not been deactivated. SA
FETY FIRST
�W ARNING
• Forward-fa cing child seats or in­
fant carriers installed on the front
passenger's seat may interfere
with the deployment of the airbag
and cause serious injury to the
child. Allow a child to travel on the
front passenger's seat only in a for­
ward- facing child restraint system
specif ically designed and ap­
proved by the child restraint
manufacturer for use in the front
with airbags. Make sure the pas­
senger seat is in the rearmost posi­
tion. It is always safer to install a
child seat in the rear.
