tyres
Thanks to its four-wheel drive, your car will have
plenty of traction in winter conditions, even with
the standard tyres. Nevertheless, we still recom­
mend that winter tyres or all-season tyres should
be fitted on all four wheels when winter road
conditions are expected, mainly because this will
give a better braking response.
Snow chains
On roads where snow chains are mandatory, this
also applies to cars with four-wheel drive
¢ page 2 5 7, Snow chains.
Replacing tyres
On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four tyres
must have the same rolling circumference. Also
avoid using tyres with varying tread depths
¢ page 254, New wheels or tyres.
Off-roader?
Your Audi does not have enough ground clear­
ance to be used as an off-road vehicle. It is there­
fore best to avoid rough tracks and uneven ter­
rain as much as possible.
A WARNING
- Even with four-wheel drive, you should al­
ways adjust your speed to suit the condi­
tions. Do not Let the extra safety provided
tempt you into taking any risks when driving
- this can cause accidents.
- The braking ability of your car is limited by
the grip of the tyres. In this respect, your
car is no different from a car without four­
wheel drive. So do not be tempted to drive
too fast on icy or slippery roads just because
the car still has good acceleration in these
conditions -risk of accident!
- On wet roads bear in mind that the front
wheels may start to "aquaplane" and Lose
contact with the road if the car is driven too
fast. If this should happen, there will be no
sudden increase in engine speed to warn the
driver, as with a front-wheel drive car. So do
not drive too fast in the wet: adjust your
speed to suit the conditions (accident risk). Intelligent

CX) What
factors can impair your safety?
Safety on the road is directly related to how you
drive, and can also be affected by the passengers
in the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for the safety of the ve­
hicle and all its occupants. If your ability to drive
is impaired in any way, you endanger yourself and
other road users ¢ ,A. Therefore:
""Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers
or by using a mobile phone, etc.
"" Never drive when your driving ability is im­
paired (by medication, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
"" Obey all traffic regulations and speed limits
and always maintain a safe distance to the vehi­
cle in front.
"" Always adjust your speed to suit the road, traf­
fic and weather conditions.
"" Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive
for more than two hours without a stop.
""If possible, avoid driving when you are tired or
stressed.
A WARNING
- Distractions while driving or any kind of im­
pairment to your driving ability increase the
risk of accident and injury.
- Do not place loose objects on the dash pan­
el. These objects could fly around the interi­
or when the vehicle is moving (under accel­
eration or whilst cornering) and distract the
driver -risk of accident! Safe
driving
Correct sitting positions
Correct driving position
The correct driving position is important for safe
driving.
Fig. 182 Adjust seat and sit in correct position 0
0
For your own safety, and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
the following driving position.
"" Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel so
there is a distance of at least 25 cm between
your breastbone and the centre of the steering
wheel¢ Fig. 182.
"" Adjust the height and fore/aft position of the
driver's seat so that you are able to press the
pedals to the floor without fully straightening
your legs¢ A.
"" Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery.
""Adjust the longitudinal position of the steering
wheel so that your arms are slightly bent and
you can read the dials and instruments easily.
"" Make sure that you can comfortably reach the
top of the steering wheel.
"" Fasten your seat belt correctly ¢ page 230.
"" Keep both feet in the footwell so that you are in
full control of the vehicle at all times.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see¢ page 54, Front seats.
A WARNING
A driver who is not sitting in the correct posi­
tion or who is not wearing a seat belt can be
fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
221

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Safe
driving
-Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel
so there is a distance of at least 25 cm be­
tween your breastbone and the centre of the
steering wheel¢ Fig. 182.
- While driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
rim at about the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tion. This reduces the risk of injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or with your hands inside
the rim or on the steering wheel hub. This
could result in serious injuries to the arms,
hands and head if the driver's airbag in­
flates.
- To reduce any risk of injury to the driver dur­
ing a sudden brake application or in an acci­
dent, never drive with the backrest tilted
too far back. The airbag system and seat
belts can only provide proper protection
when the backrest is in an upright position
and the driver is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the belt webbing
or an incorrect sitting position.
Correct position for the passenger
The front seat passenger must sit at least 25 cm
away from the dash panel so that the airbag has
enough room to inflate and give maximum pro­
tection in an accident.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
adjusting the passenger's seat as follows:
"" Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery.
"" Keep both feet in the footwell in front of the
seat.
"" Fasten your seat belt correctly ¢ page 232.
In exceptional cases you can disable the pas­
senger's airbag via the key-operated switch*
¢page 237.
222 For
detailed information on how to adjust the
passenger's seat, see ¢ page 54, Front seats.
A WARNING
A passenger who is not sitting in the correct
position or who is not wearing a seat belt can
be fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
-Adjust the passenger's seat so there is a dis-
tance of at least 25 cm between your
breastbone and the dash panel.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is moving; never rest them on the in­
strument panel, out of the window or on the
seat. If you sit in an incorrect position, you
increase your risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking or an accident. If the airbag
is triggered, you could sustain potentially
fatal injuries by sitting out of position.
- To reduce the risk of injury to the passenger
in the case of sudden braking or an accident,
the passenger should never travel in a mov­
ing vehicle with the backrest reclined. The
airbag system and seat belt can only provide
proper protection when the backrest is in an
upright position and the passenger is wear­
ing the seat belt in the correct position. The
further the backrest is tilted back, the
greater the risk of injury due to incorrect po­
sitioning of the belt webbing or an incorrect
sitting position.
Examples of incorrect seating positions
Occupants can suffer severe or fatal injuries if
they sit in an incorrect position while the vehicle
is moving.
Seat belts can only provide maximum protection
if the belt webbing is positioned correctly. Sitting
out of position greatly reduces the effectiveness
of the seat belts and increases the risk of injury
since the belt webbing is not worn in the position
for which it is designed. The driver is responsible
for the safety of all vehicle occupants, especially
for children.
"" Never allow anyone to sit out of position while
the vehicle is moving ¢,&. . ..,.

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
Putting on the seat belts
Always fasten your seat belts before driving o

CX) Deactivating
the passenger's airbag
Applies to: vehicles with key-operated switch for passenger's
airbag
If an airbag has been deactivated, it should be
reactivated as soon as possible so that it can
continue to give the required protection.
Fig. 199 Glove box: Key-operated switch for deactivating
passenger's airbag
Fig. 200 Warning lamp lights up when passenger's airbag
is deactivated
If you install a rearward-facing child seat on the
passenger's seat you must deactivate the pas­
senger's airbag beforehand .
... To deactivate the passenger's airbag, use the
emergency key to turn the key-operated switch
to OFF ¢ Fig. 199 .
... The
passenger's airbag can be reactivated by
turning the key to position ON.
Monitoring of airbag system
The indicator lamp JJI ¢ page 16 will light up for
a few seconds every time the ignition is switched
on.
If the passenger's airbag has been deactivated,
the indicator lamp "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF
or" AIR BAG OFF" will light up constantly as a
reminder¢ Fig. 200 . Airbag
system
.&_ WARNING
- 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
¢page 223.
- If you have deactivated the passenger's air­
bag, reactivate it as soon as the child seat is
no longer needed so that the airbag can
continue to give the required protection.
- It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that
the key-operated switch is set to the correct
position.
Description of front airbags
The airbag system is not a substitute for the seat
belts.
Fig. 201 Steering wheel: Driver's airbag
Fig. 202 Dashboard: Passenger's airbag
The front airbag for the driver is located in the
padded hub of the steering wheel¢ Fig. 201. The
front airbag for the passenger is in the dash­
board above the glove box ¢Fig. 202. The loca­
tions of the airbags are marked with the word
"AIRBAG". Ill--

system
In conjunction with the seat belts, the front air­
bags give additional head and chest protection
for the driver and passenger in the event of a se­
vere frontal collision <=> A in Important safety
notes on the front airbag system on page 238.
How the front airbags work
When fully inflated, the airbags reduce the risk
of head or chest injury.
Fig. 203 Front airbags in inflated condition
The driver's and passenger's airbag are triggered
in certain frontal collisions c:> Fig. 203. Further
airbag systems may also be triggered, depending
on the circumstances.
When the system is triggered, the airbags fill
with a propellant gas and open out in front of the
driver and passenger<=> Fig. 203. In order to pro­
vide the desired extra protection in an accident,
the airbags have to inflate extremely rapidly
(within fractions of a second). The fully deployed
airbags cushion the forwards movement of the
front occupants and help to reduce the risk of in­
jury to the head and the upper part of the body.
Special openings in the airbag allow the gas to
escape at a controlled rate to restrain the for­
ward movement of the occupant's head and tor­
so. Once the impact has been absorbed, the air­
bag deflates sufficiently for the front occupants
to see forward.
238 Important
safety notes on the front airbag
system
There are a number of safety points concerning
the airbag system which you should remember.
This will help to reduce the risk of injury in an ac­
cident.

- It is important for the driver and passenger
to maintain a distance of at least 25 cm
from the steering wheel or dashboard
<=> Fig. 204. The airbag system will not be
able to give the required protection if you sit
too close to the steering wheel or dash­
board. There is also a risk of injury if the air­
bags are inflated. Additionally, the seat po­
sition should always be adjusted to the body
size of the occupant.
- If you do not wear a seat belt, if you lean
forward or to the side, or are not seated cor­
rectly while the vehicle is in motion, you are
at greater risk of injury. Should the airbag
system be triggered in an accident there is
an even greater risk of injury.
- Never let a child travel on the passenger
seat without an appropriate restraint sys­
tem. If the airbag is triggered in an acci­
dent, the child could sustain serious or fatal
injuries c:> page 223, Child seats.
- Child seats in which the child faces the rear
of the car are located directly in the path of
the passenger's airbag if it inflates. In this
case, the child could sustain serious or fatal
injuries if the airbag were to be deployed.
- Applies to vehicles on which the passeng-
er's airbag cannot be deactivated: Do NOT
