SYNC Syn chr oniz ation
Use t he rocker sw itc h CD to select the f unct ion.
When synchronization is switched on, the set­
tings for the driver's side are applied to the front
passenger's side and the rear (except for seat
heating/venti lation*). When the settings on the
front passenger's side or in the rear are changed,
the synchron izat ion is automatically switched off
and
4- zone appears in the display .
SET REAR function
Use the rocker switch CD to select the function .
When the function is switched on, you can adjust
all settings for the rear us ing the climate control
system controls in the cockpit . The rear climate
control system controls cannot be operated at
the same time . T his function switches off auto­
mat ica lly after a ce rtain per iod of t ime or after
leav ing the menu.
Vents
You can open or close the center and rear vents in
the cockpit and the vents in the rear center con­
sole and door p illars using the r idged thumb­

Residual heat
You can activate the residual heat function when
the ignition is switched off by pressing the knob

is used to heat the ve hicle in ter io r. The res id ual
heat function switches off automatically after
about 15 minutes.
A WARNING
- You should not use the recirculation mode
for an extended period of time, because no
fresh air is drawn in and the windows can
fog when cooling mode is sw itched off . This
i ncreases the risk of an accident .
- Individuals with reduced sensitivity to pain
or temperature could develop burns when
us ing the seat heating function . To reduce
the risk of injury, these ind iv iduals should
not use seat heat ing.

@ Note
To avoid damage to the heating elements in
the seats, do not knee l on the seats or p lace
heavy loads on a small area of the seat.

(D Note
-Have your vehicle maintained properly and
in accordance with the service recommenda ·
tions in your Warranty & Maintenance book­
let . La.ck of proper maintenance as well as
improper use of the vehicle will impair the
function of the emission control system and
could lead to damage.
- Do not alter or remove any component of the Emission Control System unless ap·
proved by the manufacturer .
- Do not alter or remove any device, such as
heat shields, switches, ignition wires,
valves, which are designed to protect your
vehicle's Emission Control System and other
important vehicle components.

Manual steering wheel position adjustment
Applies to: vehicles with manual steering wheel adjustment
The steering wheel position is adjustable up and
down and forward and back.

A WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering wheel adjust­ ment and an incorrect seating position can
cause serious injuries.
- Only adjust the steering column when the
vehicle is stationary so that you do not lose control of the vehicle .
-
-Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is at least a 10 in (25 cm) dis­
tance between your chest and the steering wheel. If you do not maintain this distance
I
the airbag system will not be able to provide
its full protection.
- If your physical characteristics prevent you
from sitting at least 10 in (25 cm) or more
away from the steering wheel, see if an au­
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility can provide adapters that
will help.
- If your face is level with the steering wheel,
the airbag does not provide as much protec ­
tion during a collision. Always make sure
that the steering wheel is level with your
chest .
- Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi ­
tions to reduce the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys .
- Never hold the steering wheel in the 12 o'clock position or with both hands on the
rim or the center of the steering wheel.
Holding the steering wheel incorrectly sig­
nificantly increases the risk of injury to the
hands, arms and head if the driver airbag
deploys.

A WARNING
To reduce the risk of poisoning, never allow
the engine to run in confined spaces .
(LlJ) Note
Avoid high eng ine speed, full throttle, a nd
heavy engine load if the engine has not
reached operating temperature yet. You could
damage the engine .
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not let the engine run while parked to
warm up . Begin driving immediately. This re­
duces unnecessary emissions .
(D Tips

78
more force to turn or brake . Because you
cannot steer and brake as you usually
wou ld, this could lead to accidents and seri­
ous injuries .
- If you leave the vehicle, sw itch the ignition
off and take the ve hicle key with you. Other­
wise, the eng ine could be started or electr i­
cal equipment such as the powe r windows
could be ope rated . This can lead to se rious

A WARNING
-Do not press the accelerator pedal inadver­
tently if a gear is selected when the vehicle
is stationary and the eng ine is runni ng . Oth­
erwise, the vehicle will start to move imme­
d iate ly and this could result in an accident.
- Eme rgency brak ing shou ld only be used in
a n emergency, when the no rma l bra ke pedal
h as fa iled or the bra ke peda l is obstr ucted.
Dur ing eme rgency brak ing, you r vehicle w ill
brake s imilar to heavy b raking. ESC and the
associated components (ABS, ASR, EDL)
cannot overcome the laws of physics.
Around curves and when road or weather
conditions are bad, a full brake applicat ion
can cause the veh icle to skid or the rear end
to swerve, wh ich increases the risk of an ac­
cident .
- If the power supply fails, you cannot set the parking brake if it is released . In this case,
pa rk the veh icle on leve l ground and secure
it by p lac ing the sele ctor l eve r in the "P " po­
si tion. See an au thor ized A udi dealer o r au ­
thorized A udi Se rvice Fac ility for assis tance.
- Always set the pa rking brake when leaving
your veh icle, even if for a sho rt period of
time . Otherwise the vehicle could roll away,
increasing the risk of an accident.
- If you leave the vehi cle, sw itch the ignition
off and take the ve hicle key with you . This
applies partic ularly when children remain in
the vehicle. Otherwise, chi ldren co uld start
the engine, release the parking brake or op­
erate e lectr ica l equipment such as power
w indows, wh ich increases the r isk of an acci­
dent.
- No one, especially ch ildren, should remain
in the vehicle when it is locked . Locked
doors make it more diff icu lt for eme rgency
wo rkers to get into the vehicle, which puts
lives at r is k .

Difficult terrain and off-road
When driving in unfamiliar areas and offroad,
drive slowly and keep on the watch for unexpect­
ed obstacles (such as potholes, rocks, tree
stumps, etc.).
To prevent the vehicle from bottoming out and to
reduce the risk of underbody damage, you should
drive across uneven ground on only one side of
the vehicle so that only two of your wheels cross
the uneven area, instead of driving across the
center of the uneven area with all four wheels.
Drive quickly through sandy or marshy off-road
sections and do not stop , if at all possible.
Driving through water
Also read the information found in r=;, page 74.
Driving on a slope
If you are ever unable to drive up a hill, do not try
to turn around . Drive back down in
reverse in­
stead . Otherwise you run the risk of t ipping over.
If the vehicle threatens to tip over when driving
across a slope, you must immediately steer
downhill in the direction of the slope.
Do not park your vehicle on steep hills .
To reduce the r isk of tipping over, drive on hills in
the direction of the downward slope (fa ll line) -
never crosswise.
