If the mirror housing was moved by force (for
example, by running into an object when ma-
neuvering the vehicle), the mirror must be
folded all the way in using the power folding
function. The mirror housing must not be
moved back into place by hand because this
could impair the function of the mirror mech-
anism.

tened while the vehicle is in motion. Above cer-
tain speeds, additional warning tones will sound.
Additional safety belt functions
Belt retractor lock
Applies to: Coupe: The safety belts on the rear
seats and on the front passenger seat are equip-
ped with a belt retractor lock.
Applies to: Roadster: The safety belt on the front
passenger seat is equipped with a belt retractor
lock.
— If you secure a child safety seat with a safety
belt, the belt retractor lock on the safety belt
may need to be activated. Follow the instruc-
tions from the child safety seat manufacturer.
— When a vehicle passenger has fastened a safety
belt, the belt retractor lock should not be acti-
vated. If the belt retractor lock has been acti-
vated unexpectedly, deactivate it.
Deactivating or activating the belt retractor lock
=> page 60.
Safety belt retractor
The safety belts are equipped with an automatic
belt retractor. This automatic retractor allows the
safety belt to be pulled all the way out when the
belt is pulled slowly. However, the automatic re-
tractor locks during sudden braking maneuvers.
It also locks the belts when accelerating, driving
uphill, and driving around curves.
Belt force limiter
Safety belts with belt force limiters reduce the
force placed on the body by the safety belts dur-
ing a collision.
Safety belt pretensioners
In some collisions, pyrotechnic belt tensioners
may secure the safety belts so that they cannot
loosen. This reduces forward movement by the
vehicle passengers.

Z\ WARNING
The pyrotechnic system can only provide pro-
tection during one collision. If the pyrotechnic
belt tensioners deploy, the pretensioning sys-
tem must be replaced by an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility. >

Z\ WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries,
children must always be secured in the vehicle
with a child safety seat that is appropriate for
their body size, weight, and age.
— Children ages 12 and under must be trans-
ported using the appropriate child safety
seat. Note differences in regulations be-
tween states and countries. Applies to
Coupe: Also follow the information about
the correct seating position on the rear
bench seat > page 48.
— Child safety seats secured incorrectly in the
vehicle may cause serious or fatal injuries in
the event of an accident. Always secure the
child safety seat according to the manufac-
turer instructions.
— Children or babies must not under any cir-
cumstances be held on the lap of the driver
or other passengers while driving.

— Do not secure more than one child in a child
safety seat.
— Never allow a child to sit in a child safety
seat unsupervised.
— Never allow children to ride unsecured in the
vehicle or to stand or kneel on the seats
while driving. In the event of an accident, a
child could be propelled through the vehicle.
This can cause serious or fatal injuries for
the child and passengers.
If children use an incorrect seating position
while driving, they have a higher risk of in-
jury during a sudden braking maneuver or
accident. This especially applies to children
in the front passenger's seat or children who
have their head near the side airbag deploy-
ment area, if the airbag system is deployed
during an accident. This incorrect seating
position can cause severe or even fatal inju-
ries.
Applies to: Coupe: Make sure there is
enough space in front of the child in the
child safety seat. If necessary, adjust the an-
gle and position of the seat in front of the
child safety seat.
The rear side of a forward-facing child safety
seat should be positioned as close as possi-
ble to the backrest on the vehicle seat.
Applies to: Coupe:Always make sure that the
backrest on the seat where the child safety
seat is installed is securely locked in place
and cannot move forward. Otherwise, the
backrest where the child safety seat is se-
cured could move forward in the event of an
accident or other emergency situation.
NEVER use a rear-facing child safety seat on
a seat with an ACTIVATED FRONT AIRBAG;
this could cause DEATH or SERIOUS INJU-
RIES to a CHILD.
— Applies to: Coupe: Always secure child
safety seats on the rear seats.
— If you use a child safety seat on the front
passenger seat, then the front passenger’s
airbag must be deactivated. Always make
sure that

LATCH anchors
Applies to: Coupe


Fig. 63 -Applies to: Coupe- Rear bench seat: lower LATCH
anchors
Follow the safety precautions > page 58.
In the United States and Canada, child safety
seats can be secured without safety belts using
the LATCH system. LATCH stands for Lower An-
chors and Tethers for Children. In Canada, similar
systems are called UCRA, LUAS, or UAS.
The Lower LATCH anchors in your vehicle are lo-
cated on the seats of the rear bench seat be-
tween the seat surface and the backrest. These
seating locations each have two lower LATCH an-
chors that can be used to secure a LATCH child
safety seat. Marking points with a > fig. 63 sym-
bol are located on the covers for the lower LATCH
anchors. You can locate the LATCH anchors using
the marking points.
> Remove the covers from both LATCH anchors.
60
> Secure the unused safety belt that is within
range of the child. To do this, fasten the safety
belt for the seat where the child safety seat will
be installed. Activate the belt retractor lock on
the fastened safety belt. To do this, pull the up-
per belt out completely and then allow it to re-
tract. You will hear a clicking sound while the
belt is retracting. It will not be possible to pull
the safety belt out any farther.
> Make sure the fastened safety belt does not
block access to the LATCH anchors. Otherwise,
it may not be possible to secure the child safety
seat to the LATCH anchors correctly.
> Secure the child safety seat according to the
child safety seat manufacturer instructions.
> Pull on the child safety seat to check if both
sides are engaged correctly in the LATCH an-
chors.
> If possible, also secure the child safety seat to
the respective top tether anchor in the vehicle
=> page 62.

ZA WARNING
— The LATCH anchors in the vehicle are only
designed for child safety seats with the
LATCH system. To reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injury, never secure other child re-
straint systems, belts, or objects to the an-
chors.
—Achild ina child safety seat could play with
the unused safety belts and then become
entangled in them, which increases the risk
of fatal injury. Always secure the unused
safety belt so that it is not within reach of
children in child safety seats.
(i) Tips
The LATCH anchors are designed for a total
weight (child and child safety seat combined)
up to 65 lbs (29 kg). If the total weight is
greater than this, the child safety seat must
be secured with the vehicle safety belt.

a child, even with an advanced airbag system. If
you use a rear-facing child safety seat on the
front passenger’s seat, the front passenger’s air-
bag must be deactivated. Please note the impor-
tant information for this > page 59, Correct posi-
tioning for children and > page 55, Advanced air-
bag system.
Securing child safety seats

passenger's seat, adjust the front passenger's
seat to the highest position.
> Secure the child safety seat according to the
child safety seat manufacturer instructions.
> If necessary, activate the belt retractor lock
=> page 61.
> If the child safety seat is secured on the front
passenger's seat, adjust the front passenger's
seat backrest until it rests flat against the child
safety seat. Also make sure that the upper safe-
ty belt fixture is behind the child safety seat.
» Applies to: Coupe: If you secure a child safety
seat on the rear seat, also secure it to the cor-
rect top tether anchor if possible > page 62.
Activating the belt retractor lock
If you secure a child safety seat using the vehicle
safety belt, you must activate the belt retractor
lock. Follow the child safety seat manufacturer
instructions.
The belt retractor lock prevents the safety belt
from becoming loose while driving, which could
result in the child safety seat no longer being ad-
equately secured.
>» Secure the child safety seat according to the
child safety seat manufacturer instructions.
While doing so, pull out the safety belt. Insert
the safety belt into the belt latch that belongs
to that seat until it audibly locks.
> Pull the upper belt out completely and then al-
low it to retract. You will hear a clicking sound
while the belt is retracting. It will not be possi-
ble to pull the safety belt out any farther.
> Push the child safety seat into the seat and al-
low the belt to retract more.
>» Make sure that the child safety seat cannot
move more than 1 inch (2.5 cm).
Deactivating the belt retractor lock
> Unbuckle the safety belt from the belt latch.
> Remove the child safety seat according to the
manufacturer instructions.
> Allow the safety belt to retract completely. The
belt retractor lock is deactivated.

ZX WARNING
—A safety belt that is not locked by the belt
retractor lock or a locking device cannot se-
cure a child safety seat while driving or in
the event of an accident, which increases the
risk of fatal injury. Always make sure the
belt retractor lock on the safety belt is acti-
vated if the child safety seat manufacturer
instructions require it.
— Due to the risk of fatal injury, never place a
rear-facing child safety seat on the front
passenger's seat when the front passenger's
airbag is switched on.
— For the child safety seat to offer the maxi-
mum protection, it is especially important
to route the vehicle safety belt correctly. Al-
ways follow the instructions from the child
safety seat manufacturer for routing the
safety belt correctly. Incorrectly fastened
safety belts can cause injuries, even during
minor accidents.

ment can hold a maximum weight of 2.2 lbs (1
kg).
— Coat hooks

ZA\ WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure all
storage compartments are always closed
while driving.
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Store objects securely while
driving.
— Only use the storage compartments in the
door trim panels to store small objects that
will not stick out of the compartment and
impair the function of the side airbags.
— Make sure your view toward the rear is not
blocked, for example by hanging clothing or
objects in the vehicle.
— Applies to: Coupe: No heavy or hard objects
may be placed on the storage compartment
behind the rear seat backrest. There is a risk
of injuring the vehicle passengers when
braking suddenly.

Luggage compartment
General information
All pieces of luggage or objects must be securely
fastened in the luggage compartment. Note the
following to maintain good vehicle handling:
> Distribute the load evenly in the luggage com-
partment.
> Stow heavy luggage as far forward in the lug-
gage compartment as possible.
> Use non-elastic cords attached to the tie-downs
to secure objects.

ZA WARNING
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Always stow objects securely in
the luggage compartment and secure them
at the tie-downs. Use straps suitable for
heavy objects.
— If pieces of luggage or objects are secured
to the tie-downs with unsuitable or dam-
aged straps, this can increase the risk of in-
jury during braking maneuvers or accidents.
— When transporting heavy objects, the vehi-
cle characteristics will change due to the
shift in the center of gravity, which increases
the risk of an accident. You may need to
adapt your driving style and speed to the
current conditions.
— The cargo net is only strong enough to se-
cure light objects. Heavy objects are not ade-
quately secured. Attempting to secure heavy
objects increases the risk of injury.

Stowing and using



— Never exceed the permitted axle and load
and vehicle weight > page 263.
— Never secure a child safety seat to the tie-
downs.
— Never leave your vehicle unattended, espe-
cially if the luggage compartment lid is
open. Children could enter the luggage com-
partment and close the luggage compart-
ment lid from the inside. This creates the
risk of fatal injury, since the children would
be locked in and may not be able to escape
by themselves.
— Do not allow children to play in or on the ve-
hicle. Close and lock the luggage compart-
ment lid as well as all other doors when you
leave the vehicle.
— Never transport passengers in the luggage
compartment. Every passenger must be cor-
rectly secured with the safety belts in the

— Applies to: Coupe: The luggage compart-
ment cover must always be securely fas-
tened when in use to reduce the risk of an
accident.
— Applies to: Coupe: The luggage compart-
ment cover is not a surface for storing ob-
jects. Objects placed on the cover increase
the risk of injury to all vehicle occupants
during sudden driving or braking maneuvers
or in the event of an accident.
— Applies to: Coupe: Be careful when releasing
the backrest and folding it forward. To re-
duce the risk of being pinched, pay attention
and check when folding backrests forward.
— Applies to: Coupe: The backrest must be se-
curely latched so objects cannot slide for-
ward out of the luggage compartment dur-
ing sudden braking.
— Applies to: Coupe: Always pull forward on
the backrest to make sure it is check if it is
correctly locked in place.

@) Note
Applies to: Coupe
— If you move the front seat back when the
