seating position and have the airbag system inspected by your
authorized Audi dealer.
• A tight tether or other str ap on a rearward-fac ing child restr aint
attached to the front pas senger seat can put too much pressure
on the weight-sensing mat in the seat and reg ister more weight
than i s actually on the seat. The heavier weight registered can
make the system work as though an adult were on the seat and
deploy the Advanced Airbag when it must be suppressed causing
s erious or even fatal injury to the child .
• If, in exceptional circumstances , you mu st in stall a forward ­
fac ing child restra int on the front passenger seat , always move the
seat into its rearmost position in the seat's fore and aft ad just ­
ment range , as far away from the airbag as possible . The backrest
must be adjusted to an upright position . Make sure that the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light comes on and stay s on all the time
whenever the ignition is switched on .
& WARNING
• If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does not go out when an
adult is sitting on the front passenger seat after taking the steps
described above, make sure the adult is properly seated and
restrained at one of the rear seating positions .
• Have the airbag system inspected by your authorized Audi
dealer before transporting anyone on the front passenger seat .
[ i ] Tips
If the weight -sensing mat in the front passenger seat detects an
e mp ty seat, the fro nt air b ag on the pa ssenge r sid e will be t urned
off, and the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF l ight will stay on .

Repair, care and disposal of the airbags
Parts of the airbag system are insta lled at many different places on
your Au di. In stal lin g, re moving, ser vic in g or re pair in g a part in an
area of the vehicle can damage a part of an a irbag system and
pre ven t that system from wo rki ng p rope rly in a co llision .
There are some important things you have to know to make sure
that the effectiveness of the system will not be impai red an d that
d iscarded co mponents do not cause inju ry or po llute t he e nv iron ­
ment .
& WARNING
Improper care , servicing and repair procedures can increase the
risk of personal injury and death by preventing an airbag from
deploying when needed or deploying an airbag unexpectedly:
• Never cover , obstruct , or change the steering wheel horn pad
or airbag cover or the instrument panel or modify them in any way .
• Never attach any obje cts su ch as cup holders or telephone
mountings to the surfaces covering the airbag units.
• For cleaning the horn pad or instrument panel, use only a soft ,
dry cloth or one moi stened with plain water . Solvents or cleaners
c ould damage the airbag cover or change the stiffness or strength
of the material so that the airbag cannot deploy and protect prop ­
erly .
• Never repair , adjust , or change any parts of the airbag system.
• All work on the steering wheel , instrument panel , front seats or
electrical system (including the installation of audio equipment ,
c ellular telephones and CB radios , etc .I must be performed by a
qualified technician who has the training and special equipment
necessary .
• For any work on the airbag system , we strongly recommend
that you see your authorized Audi dealer or qualified workshop .

& WARNING
Charging a battery can be dangerous .
• Never charge a frozen battery . It may explode because of gas
trapped in the ice. Allow a frozen battery to thaw out first .
• Do not reuse batteries which were frozen . The battery housing
may have cracked and weakened when the battery froze .
• Charge the battery in a well ventilated area . Keep away from
open flame or electrical spark . Do not smoke . Hydrogen gas gener ­
ated by the battery is explosive .
• To reduce the danger of explosion , never connect or disconnect
charger cables wh ile the charger is operating .
• Fast charging a battery is dangerous and should only be
attempted by a competent technician with the proper equipment .
• Battery acid that may spill during charging should be washed
off with a solution of warm water and baking soda to neutralize
the acid .
0 Note
• Nev e r use a fast charger as a booster to start the engine. This will
seriously damage sensitive electronic components, such as control
units, re lays, radio, etc ., as wel l as the battery charger .
• T he vehicle may be optio nally equi ppe d wi th a ge l batt ery , w hich

prevent damage to the battery and the electronics system, a gel
battery that is connected must u nder no circumstances be cha rged

• A wheel sensor or other component may have failed.
• During initia lization the system has detected more than 4 wheels
on the vehicle, for example while driving next to another car with a
tire pressure monitoring system.
• A wheel change was made but the button
=> page 265, fig. 179
was not pressed.
• Audi Genuine Parts were not used for parts replacement.
• If snow chains are being used, system function can be compro­
mised due to the shielding properties of the chains.
• The tire pressure monitoring system may not be available
because of a radio ma lfunction.
• Transmitters with the same frequency, such as radio head­
phones in the veh icle or radio equipment, can cause a temporary
disruption of the system through excessive electromagnetic fields.
• Eliminate the interference if possible and then proceed as
follows: Turn off the engine for 20 minutes. Then drive another 10
min . If the warning light comes on again, you shou ld contact your
authorized Audi dealer immediately to have the problem corrected.
• Do not use commercially available tire sealants. Otherwise, the
e lectrical components of the tire pressure monitoring system will
no longer work properly and the sensor for the tire pressure moni ­
toring system will have to be replaced by an authorized Audi dealer
or other qualified workshop. •

Installing /replacing a sound system
If you wish to install a radio or replace the factory installed radio ,
please note the following :
Controls and equip­
ment Safety first Vehicle operation
The factory insta
lled radio connectors are designed for genuine
Audi radios. When install ing a different radio, difficu lties could arise
such as :
- the radio may not fit into the space provided
- the electrical connections may not be compatible
- different connector terminals may be needed .
Therefore, we recommend that you have your authorized Audi dea ler instal l or replace the radio.
They are the most fami liar with the technical features of your
vehic le . They also offer Genuine Audi Radios with the necessary
installa tion components and instructions .
& WARNING
Improperly in stall ing a r adio could cau se a s hort circ uit and an
el ectr ic a l fir e. •
Technical Modifications
Our guidelines must be complied with when technical
mo difications are made.
Always consult an authorized Audi dea ler b efore starting work on
any modifications.
This will help ensure that vehic le function, perfo rmance and safe ty
are not impaired=> &.
Attempting to work on electronic components and the software used with them can cause malfunctions. Because of the way elec­
tronic components are interconnected with each other, such
malfunctions can also have an adverse affect on other systems that
are not directly involved . This means that you risk both a substantial
reduction in the operat ional safety of your vehicle and an increased
wear of vehicle par ts
