General notes
Safety is the first priority
Your safety is our first priority.
This chapter contains important information,
tips, suggestions and warnings that you should
read and observe for your own safety and the
safety of your passengers.
A WARNING
- The information in this chapter is important
for the driver of the vehicle and the passen­
ger. The other chapters in this manual (and,
where applicable, in the other literature
supplied with the vehicle) contain further
important notes which you should read and
observe for your own safety and that of your
passenger.
- Ensure that the complete vehicle wallet is
always in the vehicle. This is especially im­
portant when you lend or sell the vehicle to
others.
Safety features
The safety features Listed here are part of the ve­
hicle's occupant restraint system. They work to­
gether to help reduce the risk of injury in a wide
variety of accident situations.
Your safety and the safety of your passengers
should not be left to chance. In the event of an
accident, the safety features incorporated in your
vehicle are capable of reducing the risk of injury.
These are just a few of the safety features in your
Audi:
- Seat belts for all seats
- Belt force limiters for all seats
- Belt tensioners for all seats
- Front airbags
- Side airbags in the backrests
- "ISOFIX" anchorages* for "ISO FIX" child seats
on the passenger's seat
-Adjustable steering column
220 These
individual safety features are harmonised
to provide you and your passenger with the best
possible protection in accident situations. How­
ever, they can only be effective if you and your
passenger sit in the correct position and adjust
and use the safety equipment properly.
For these reasons, this chapter explains why
these safety features are so important, how they
can protect you, what you need to remember
when using them, and how you and your passen­
gers can gain the most benefit from them. There
are also a number of important safety warnings
which you and your passengers should always ob­
serve in order to minimise the risk of injury.
Safety is everyone's responsibility!
Before every trip
The driver is responsible for the safety of the
passengers and the safe operation of the vehicle
at all times.
For your own safety and the safety of your pas­
senger, always note the following points before
every trip:
.,. Make sure that all lights and turn signals are
working properly .
... Check
the tyre pressures.
... Make sure that all windows are clean and give
good visibility to the outside.
... Secure all luggage and other items carefully
¢page 227.
... Make sure that no objects can interfere with
the pedals.
... Adjust the mirrors and the seat according to
your body height.
.,. Make sure that children are protected with suit­
able safety seats and properly worn seat belts
¢page 223.
... Sit
in the correct position in your seat. Make
sure that your passenger is sitting in the cor­
rect position ¢ page 54.
... Fasten your seat belt correctly. Make sure that
your passenger does the same¢ page 230.

following list shows just some examples of
incorrect sitting positions which can be danger­
ous to all occupants. The list is not complete, but
will help to make you aware of possible dangers
which can be avoided.
Therefore, whenever the vehicle is moving:
- Never stand up in the vehicle.
- Never stand on the seats.
- Never kneel on the seats.
- Never travel with the backrest reclined too far.
- Never lean against the dash panel.
- Never sit on the
front
edge of a seat.
- Never sit sideways.
- Never lean out of the window.
- Never put your feet out of the window.
- Never put your feet on the dash panel.
- Never put your feet on the seat cushion.
- Never ride in the footwell.
- Never travel on a seat without wearing the seat
belt.
- Never climb into the luggage compartment.
A WARNING
Sitting out of position increases the risk of se­
vere injuries.
- Sitting out of position exposes the occu­
pants to potentially fatal injuries if, for in­
stance, the airbags inflate and strike an oc­
cupant who is not seated in one of the prop­
er positions.
- Before starting a trip, sit in the correct posi­
tion and stay in this position as long as the
vehicle is moving. Make sure your passen­
gers are also sitting in the proper positions
and ensure that they remain correctly seat­
ed at all times ¢ page 54, Front seats.
Child seats
Safety notes for using child seats
To reduce the risk of injury in the event of an ac­
cident, children must always use child restraint
systems when travelling in the car.
� Please note the information in this Owner's Man-
,.....
� ual when installing and using child seats. Follow
,..... Safe
driving
the manufacturer's instructions and observe any
statutory requirements.
If you use a child seat on the passenger's seat, it
is most important to note the warnings ¢.&..
A WARNING
To avoid serious or fatal injury, children trav­
elling in the vehicle must always be protected
with child restraint systems appropriate to
their height, weight and age.
- Children under 1.50 m tall or younger than
12 must not travel in the vehicle if there are
no suitable child seats. Please observe any
other applicable regulations in the country
in which you are
travelling.
- Babies and children must never travel on an­
other occupant's lap.
- Never allow more than one child to occupy
one child seat.
- Never leave a child without supervision in a
child seat.
- Never allow a child to travel unrestrained or
to stand up or kneel on a seat while the car
is moving. In an accident, the child could be
catapulted through the car, causing possibly
fatal
injuries
to itself and other occupants.
- To ensure proper protection by the child re­
straint, it is important to wear the seat belts
in the correct position ¢ page 232. Always
check that the belt is properly positioned ac­
cording to the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the child seat. Incorrectly
worn seat belts can give rise to injuries even
in a minor collision.
- If children are out of position when the car
is moving, they are at greater risk of injury
during a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an
accident. This is particularly the case if the
child is travelling on the passenger's seat
and the airbag system is triggered in an ac­
cident. This incorrect sitting position can re­
sult in serious or even fatal injury.
- Make sure there is sufficient clearance in
front of the child sitting in the child seat. If
necessary, adjust the seat position and
backrest angle of the seat in front of the
child seat.

possible. Our recommendation: Audi child
seat with ISOFIX base.
Child seats: categories 2 and 3
Child seats with backrests used in conjunction
with seat belts are most appropriate for these
categories (15 to 36 kg). Our recommendation:
Audi child seat "youngster plus".
A WARNING
- Categories 0, O+ and 1 (rearward-facing):
Never install a rearward-facing child seat on
the passenger's seat unless the passenger's
airbag has been deactivated -this can result
in potentially fatal injuries to the child. If
you have no alternative but to let a child
travel on the passenger's seat, the passeng­
er's airbag must be deactivated* beforehand
¢page 237.
- Categories 1 (forward-facing), 2 and 3: The
back of the child seat should be flush with
the backrest of the vehicle seat.
- Categories 2 and 3: The shoulder section of
the belt must be fitted across the centre of
the child's collar bone close to the torso. It
must never run against or across the neck.
The lap belt must be worn tightly across the
hips, and not over the stomach or abdomen.
Pull the belt tight if necessary to take up
any slack.
- Wait for as long as possible before changing
up to the next child seat group.

Do not wear the belt over hard or fragile ob­
jects (such as glasses or pens, etc.) because
this can cause injuries.
- Loose, bulky clothing (such as an overcoat
over a jacket) impairs the proper fit and
function of the belts.
- The belts must be kept clean, otherwise the
retractors may not work properly
¢ tab. Cleaning the interior on page 265.
- The slot in the seat belt buckle must not be
blocked with paper or other objects, as this
can prevent the latch plate from engaging
properly.
- The latch plate of the belt must always be
engaged in the correct buckle for that seat,
otherwise the belt will not be fully effective.
- Check the condition of the seat belts at reg­
ular intervals. If you notice that the belt
webbing, fittings, retractor mechanism or
buckle of any of the belts is damaged, the
belt must be replaced by a qualified work­
shop.
- The seat belts must not be removed or
modified in any way. Do not attempt to re­
pair a damaged belt yourself.
- Seat belts which have been worn in an acci­
dent and stretched must be replaced by a
qualified workshop. The belt anchorages
should also be checked. Forces
acting in a

belts
The physical principles involved in a frontal
impact
Very large forces are generated during a colli­
sion; these forces have to be absorbed.
Fig. 189 Passengers of a vehicle which is headed for a
brick wall. They are not using seat belts.
Fig. 190 The vehicle crashes into the wall
The physical principles involved in a frontal colli­
sion are relatively simple:
Both the moving vehicle and the passengers pos­
sess energy, which is known as "kinetic energy"
¢ Fig. 189. The amount of "kinetic energy" de­
pends on the speed of the vehicle and the weight
of the vehicle and passengers. The higher the
speed and the greater the weight, the more ener­
gy there is to be absorbed in an accident.
The most significant factor, however, is the
speed of the vehicle. If the speed doubles from
25 km/h to 50 km/h, for example, the kinetic en­
ergy increases by a factor of four. Because these
passengers are not restrained by seat belts, the
entire amount of kinetic energy has to be absor­
bed at the point of impact ¢ Fig. 190. This would
result in serious or potentially fatal injury.
..,.

belts
Even at urban speeds of 30 km/h to 50 km/h, the
forces acting on the occupants in a collision can
reach the equivalent of 1 ton (1,000 kg) or more.
At greater speed these forces are even higher.
Again: if the speed doubles, the forces increase
by a factor of four.
Passengers who do not wear seat belts are not
"attached" to the vehicle. In a frontal collision
they will continue to move forward at the speed
their car was travelling just before the impact.
What happens to passengers not wearing
seat belts?
Passengers not wearing seat belts risk fatal inju­
ries in the event of an accident.
Fig. 191 A driver not wearing a seat belt can be thrown
forwards
In a frontal collision, unbelted passengers will be
thrown forwards and make violent contact with
the steering wheel, dashboard, windscreen, etc
¢ Fig. 191. Passengers not wearing their belts
risk being thrown out of the car. This could result
in potentially fatal injuries.
The common belief that occupants can brace
their weight with their hands in a minor collision
is false. Even at Low speeds the forces acting on
the body in a collision are so great that it is not
possible to hold yourself in the seat.
232 How
to wear seat belts
properly

- The latch plate of the belt must always be
engaged in the correct buckle for that seat.
Otherwise the belt will not be fully effective
and the danger of injury increases.
Adjusting the seat belts
Always position seat belts properly for maximum
safety.
Fig. 194 Adjusting shoulder/lap belt
The following equipment is available for your ve­
hicle to help you position the seat belt properly
to suit your height:
- Height-adjustable seats
- Belt guide ring on backrest
A WARNING
- The shoulder section of the belt should be
fitted across the centre of the collar bone
close to the body. To fasten the belt, take
hold of the belt above the latch plate and
pull it slowly down across your chest. Wear
the lap portion of the seat belt as low as
possible over the hips so that there is no
pressure on the lower abdomen. The belt
should always be worn tightly ¢ Fig. 194.
Pull the belt tight if necessary to take up
any slack.
- Always make sure that belt is positioned
properly. Incorrectly worn seat belts can
give rise to injuries even in a minor collision. Seat
belts
- Seat belts worn too loose can result in inju­
ries because they allow excessive forward
movement in a crash; the occupant will be
brought to a sudden stop by the belt web­
bing.
