vided by the roof rack manufacturer when
installing the roof rack system .
If luggage or cargo is to be carried on the
roof, you must observe the following:
- On ly use roof racks approved for your vehi

for a complete roof rack system. Additional attachments or carr ier systems are needed
to transport luggage and sports equipment .
We recommend using roof racks from the
Audi original accessories program.
- When installing the roof rack, make sure it
is only mounted on the designated locations
on the roof
Q fig. 64.
-We recommend that you keep the installa
tion instructions for your roof rack system
together with your Owner's literature in the
veh icle .
Wh en sh ould th e roo f rack be re mov ed ?
-Before going through an automatic car wash
(it is best to ask the car wash operator for
advice).
- When not in use, to reduce fuel consump
tion, wind noise and to guard against theft.
A WARNING

-The backrest must a lways be securely

help protect the oc cupant .
- T he backrest must be secure ly latched in
posi tion so that no items contained in
the luggage compar tment can slide for

- Alw ays che ck whe ther the l atch is f ully

- Never allow safe ty belts to be come dam
aged by being caught in doo r or seat
hardware.
- T orn or frayed safety belts can tear and
damaged belt hardware can break in a
crash. Inspect the be lts periodically.
Belts showing damage to webbing, bind
ings, buckles, or retractors must be re
placed .
(D Note
-If you move the front seat back when the
rear seat backrest is folded forward, you
cou ld damage the head restraints on the
rear seat.
- Slide the be lt guide on the outside safety
belt all the way up before folding the
backrest back forward. Make sure the
seat belt is not pinched or damaged
when the rear seat backrest if folded
back. Other objects should be removed
from the rear seat bench to protect the sea tback from damage.
Tie-downs and cargo net
Applies to vehicles: with cargo ne t
The cargo net prevents small objects from
sliding.

In a co llision, the laws of physics mean that
even smaller items that are loose in the vehi
cle w ill turn into heavy miss iles that can cause
serious injury. Items in the vehi cle pick up k i
neti c energy wh ich var ie s with the veh icle and
t h e weight of the item. Vehicle speed is the
most sig nificant factor.
For example, in a fronta l collision at a speed
of 30 mph (48 km/h), the forces a cti ng on a
10-lb (5 kg) object are abo ut
20 times the
normal weight of the item. This means t hat

plemental side airbag expands. This applies
especially to children ¢
page 133, Child Safe
ty.
Supplemental side airbags inflate between
the occupant and the door panel on the side
of the vehicle that is struck in certain side col
lision
¢ fig . 122.
Although they are not a soft pillow, they can
"cushion" the impact and in this way they can
help to reduce the risk of injury to the upper
part of the body .
A fine dust may develop when the airbag de
ploys. This is normal and does not mean there
is a fire in the vehicle .
Important safety instructions on the
side airbag system
Airbags are only supplemental restraints. Al
ways properly wear safety belts and ride in a
proper seating position.
There is a lot that you and your passengers
must know and act accordingly to help the
safety belts and airbags do their job to pro
vide supplemental protection.
_& WARNING
An inflating side airbag can cause serious or fatal injury. Improperly wearing safety
belts and improper seating positions in
crease the risk of serious personal injury
and death whenever a vehicle is being
used.
- In order to reduce the risk of injury when
the supplemental side airbag inflates:
- Always sit in an upright position and
never lean against the area where the
supplemental side airbag is located.
- Never let a child or anyone else rest
their head against the side trim panel
in the area where the supplemental
side airbag inflates.
- Always make sure that safety belts are
worn correctly,
- Do not let anyone sitting in the front

deploy.
- Damage to the original seat covers or
to the seam in the area of the side air
bag module must always be repaired
immediately by an authorized Audi
dealer.
- Objects between you and the airbag can
increase the risk of injury in an accident
by inter fering with the way the airbag
unfolds or by being pushed into you as
the airbag inflates.
- Never place or attach accessories or
other objects (such as cupholders, tele
phone brackets, or even large, bulky
objects) on the doors, over or near the
area marked "AIRBAG" on the seat
backrests.
- Such objects and accessories can be
come dangerous projectiles and cause
injury when the supplement al side air
bag deploys.
- Never carry any objects or pets in the
deployment space between them and
the airbags or allow children or other
passengers to travel in this position .
- Always use the built-in coat hooks only
for lightweight clothing . Never leave any
heavy or sharp-edged objects in the
pockets that may interfere with side air
bag deployment and can cause personal
injury in an accident.
- Always prevent the side airbags from be

Child Restraint System anchors and how
are they related to child safety
T o p rov ide a simple r and more practicable way

after September 1, 1999, are req uired by U .S .
f ede ra l regu lations to comply with new child
head movement performance req uirements.
These new performance req uirements make a
tether necessary on most new child seats.
Installing a child restraint that requires a top
tethe r without one can seriously impair the
performance of the c hild restra int and its abil

a chi ld restrai nt that requires a top tether
without the top tether may be a violat ion of
state law.
Child rest raint manufacturers offer LATCH
lower anchorages on their child seats w ith
hook-on or push-on connectors attached to
adjustable straps .
In add ition to the LATCH lower anchorages,
t h ese chi ld restraint systems usually require
t h e use of tethe r straps to he lp keep the ch ild

behin d the rear s ea tb acks
The tethe r anchors for the rear seating posi
tions are located on the backside of the rear seatbacks
q fig. 134.
A tether is a straight or V-sha ped strap that
attaches the top part of a child restraint to
specia l anchorage points in the veh icle.
The purpose of the tether is to reduce the for
ward movement of the ch ild restra int in a
crash, in o rder to he lp red uce the risk of head
i nj ury that could be ca used by striki ng the ve
hicle interior.
Forward facing child restraints manufactured

federal regulations to comply with new c hild
head movement performance requirements.
Thes e new performance requirements mak e a

A WARNING
Improper installation of child restraints
will increase the risk of injury and death in a crash .
- Always follow the instructions prov ided
by the manufacturer of the ch ild re
straint you intend to install in your Audi.
- Improper use of ch ild restra int anchors
(including tether anchors) ca n lead to in
jury in a collision. The ancho rs are de
signed to withstand only those loads im posed by correctly fitted ch ild restraints.
- Never mount two chi ld restraint systems
on one LA TCH lower ancho r po int.
Child S afety 149
-Never attach two child restraint systems
to one tether strap or tether anchorage .
- Never attach a tether strap to a tie-down
hook in the luggage compartment.
- Never use child restraint tether a ncho
rages to secure safety belts or other
kinds of occupant restraints.
- Never secure or attach any luggage or
other items to the LATCH lower ancho
rages or to the tether anchors .
- If a tether or oth er strap is used to at
tach a chi ld restraint to the front passen
ger seat, make sure that it is not so
tight, that it causes the weight-sens ing
mat to measure more we ight than is ac
tually on the seat .
- The heavier weight registered can make
the Advanced Airbag System work as
though an adult were on the seat and dep loy the Advanced Airbag when it must
be suppressed causing serious or even
fatal injury to the child .
