Light and Vision
When switched on, adaptive light adjusts to
curves depending on the vehicle speed and steer·
ing wheel angle . This provides better lighting
through the curve. The system operates in a
speed range from approximately 6 mph (10 km/
h) to 68 mph (110 km/h).
Static cornering light* (vehicles with adaptive
light)· the cornering light switches on automati­
cally when the steering wheel is turned at acer­
tain ang le at speeds up to approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) and whe n the turn signal is activated
at speeds up to approximately 25 mph (40 km/
h). The area to the side of the vehicle is illuminat­
ed better when tu rning.
Speed depend ent light distribution* -The speed
dependent light distribution adapts the light in
towns and on highways or expressways. In tersec­
tions can also be illum inated on veh icles with a
navigat ion system*.
Highway light function*
(Vehicles with adaptive light or LED headlights) -
This function adapts the light ing for highway
driving based on vehicle speed .
..&, WARNING
-Automatic headlights* are only int ended to
assist the driver. They do not relieve the
driver of his responsibility to check the
headlights and to turn them on manually
according to the current light and visibi lity
condit ions. For example, fog cannot be de·
tected by the light sensors . So always switch
on the low beam under these weather con­
ditions and when driving in the dark
io.
- Accidents could occur if you can not see the
road ahead of you well and if others on the
road cannot see you . Always switch your
head lightsonsothatyoucanseetheroad
ahead of you and others can see your vehicle
from behind.
- Please observe legal regulations when using
the lighting systems described .
44
(D Note
The rear fog lights shou ld only be turned on in
accordance with traffic regulation, as the lights are bright for following traffic.
@ Tips
-The light sensor for the automatic head­
lights * is in the rearview mirror mount.
Therefore, do not place any stickers in this
area on the windshield.
- Some functions of the exterior lighting can
be adjusted
c> page 45.
- If you turn off the ignition whi le the exterior
lights are on and open the door, you will
hear a warning tone.
- In some market-specific versions, the tail
lights do not turn on when switching on the
daytime running lights.
- In cool or damp weather, the inside of the headlights, turn signals and taillights can
fog over due to the temperature difference
between the inside and outside . They will
clear shortly after switching them on. This
does not affect the serv ice life of the light­
ing .
- A message will appear in the instrument
cluster if there is a malfunction in the light
sensor

General information
Important information
A WARNING
Refer to the chapter Driving Safely
c::> page 130, Driving safety for important in­
formation, tips, suggestions and warnings
that you should read and follow for your own
safety and the safety of your passengers.
Why is your seat adjustment so important?
The safety belts and the airbag system con only
provide maximum protection if the front seats
ore correctly adjusted.
There are various ways of adjusting the front
seats to provide safe and comfortable support
for the driver and the front passenger. Adjust
your seat properly so that:
- you can easily and quickly reach all the switches
and controls in the instrument panel
-your body is properly supported thus reducing
physical stress and fatigue
- the safety belts and airbag system can offer
maximum protection
c::> page 148.
In the following sections, you will see exactly
how you can best adjust your seats.
There are special regulations and instructions for
installing a child seat on the front passenger's
seat . Always follow the information regarding
child safety provided in
c::> page 172, Child safe­
ty.
A WARNING
Incorrect seating position of the driver and all
other passengers can result in serious person­
al injury.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is in motion -never put your feet on
top of the instrument panel, out of the win­
dow or on top of the seat cushion. This ap­
plies especially to the passengers. If your
seating position is incorrect, you increase
Seats and storage
the risk of injury in the case of sudden brak­
ing or an accident.
If the airbag inflates and
the seating position is incorrect, this could result in personal injury or even death.
- It is important for both the driver and front
passenger to keep a distance of at least
10 inches (25 cm) between themselves and
the steering wheel and/or instrument panel.
If you're sitting any closer than this, the air­
bag system cannot protect you properly. In
addition, the front seats and head restraints
must be adjusted to your body height so
that they can give you maximum protection.
- Always try to keep as much distance as pos­
sible between yourself and the steering
wheel or instrument panel.
- Do not adjust the driver's or front passeng­
er's seat while the vehicle is moving. Your
seat may move unexpectedly, causing sud­
den loss of vehicle control and personal in­
jury. If you adjust your seat while the vehicle is moving, you are out of position .
Driver's seat
The correct seat position is important for safe
and relaxed driving.
We recommend that you adjust the driver's seat
in the following manner:
.,. Adjust the seat in fore and aft direction so that
you can easily push the pedals to the floor
while keeping your knees slightly bent
c::, A in
Why is your seat adjustment so important? on
page
53.
.,. Adjust the backrest so that when you sit with
your back against the backrest, you can still grasp the top of the steering wheel.
.,. For adjustable head restraints: adjust the head
restraint so the upper edge is as even as possi­
ble with the top of your head.
If that is not pos­
sible, try to adjust the head restraint so that it
is as close to this position as possible
c::> page 56. Move the head restraint so that it
is as close to the back of the head as possible. ..,.

Driving
You must drive your vehicle about 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers) before you can properly as­
sess oil consumption.
This also applies to fuel consumption and engine
output.
@ Note
- Have your vehicle maintained properly and
in accordance w ith the service recommenda­
tions in your Warranty
& Maintenance book­
let. Lack 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 ap­proved 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.
Fewer short trips
Fuel consumption will always be relatively high
on short trips.
.,. Try to avoid driving short distances with a cold
engine.
The eng ine and catalytic converter have to reach
their optimal
operating temperature to reduce
fuel consumption and noxious emissions effec­
tively .
Just after starting, a cold engine in a mid-size car only achieves a fuel economy of 6-8 miles per
gallon (30-40 l/100 km). After about a half a mile, fuel economy climbs to 12 mpg (20
l/
100 km) . After about 2.5 miles (4 km), the en­
gine is at its proper operating temperature and
fuel economy has reached a normal level. So you
can see that you should avoid short trips whenev­
er possible.
The
outside temperature is also critical in this re­
gard. Your car consumes more fuel in the winter
than in the summer.

Steering
Adjusting the steering wheel position
The steering wheel position is fully adjustable up
and down and forward and back .
Fig. 67 Ste ering co lumn : steer ing colu mn adjus tmen t l eve r
.,. Tilt the lever ¢ fig. 67 downward ¢.&, .
.,. Bring the steering wheel into the desired posi­
tion.
.,. Push the lever against the steering column un­
til it latches .
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 steer ing wheel so
that there is at least 10 inches (25 cm) dis­
tance between your chest and the steering
wheel ¢
page 131, fig. 113. If you do not
maintain this distance, the airbag system
will not be able to provide its full protection
¢page 131, fig. 113.
-If your physical characteristics prevent you
from sitting at least 10 inches (25 cm) or
more away from the steering wheel, see if
your authorized 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 .

....,
N
-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 steer ing wheel in the 12
o'clock position or w ith both hands on the
rim or the center of the steering wheel.
Holding the stee ring wheel incorrectly sig­
nificantly increases the risk of injury to the
hands, arms and head if the airbag deploys.

Driving
& WARNING
-Never allow the engine to run in confined
spaces, because this increases the risk of as ­
phyxiation.
- Never
remove the ignition key from the igni­
tion look while the vehicle is moving . Other ­
wise the steering lock will engage and you
will not be able to steer the vehicle.
- Please note that the brake booster and pow­
er steering only work when the engine is
running . When the engine off, you must use
more force to steer or brake the vehicle. Be­
cause the usual steering and braking capa­
bility is not available, the risk of accidents or
injuries increases.
- Always take the vehicle key with you when
leaving the vehicle,
even for a short period
of time. This applies particularly when chil­
dren remain in the vehicle. Otherwise the
children could start the engine or operate
electrical equipment such as power win­
dows .
CT'.) Note
- Avoid high engine speed, full throttle, and
heavy engine load as long as the engine has
not reached operating temperature yet . You
could damage the engine .
- The engine cannot be started by pushing or
towing .
@ 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
- If it is difficult to turn the key to position
(D, turn the steering wheel back and forth
slightly to release the steering wheel lock.
- After starting a cold engine, there may be a
brief period of increased noise because the
oil pressure must first build up in the hy­
draulic
valve adjusters . This is normal and
not a cause for concern.
- If the battery is disconnected and recon­
nected, you have to hold the ignition key in
74
position (D for five seconds for the engine
to start.
- After switching the ignition off, you can only
remove the key when the selector lever is in
the "P" (Park) position. After that, the selec­
tor lever is locked.
