"
Vl Driving
In start/stop mode, the engine is switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops, e.g. at
traffic lights. The ignition remains on during this
stop phase. The engine is automatically started
on demand.
The start/stop system is automatically activated
each time you switch on the ignition.
Basic conditions for start/stop mode
- The driver's door must be closed.
- The driver's seat belt must be buckled.
- The bonnet must be closed.
- The vehicle must have been moving at over 4
km/h since the last stop.
A WARNING
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary. Otherwise you may not have
the full benefit of the brake servo and pow
er steering. You may need more strength to
steer and brake the vehicle than you nor
mally would. This would mean a greater risk
of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man
ner.
- Always take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle -even if you only intend to be
gone for a short time. This is especially im
portant if children are left in the car. They
might otherwise be able to start the engine
or use power-operated equipment such as
the electric windows -this could lead to in
juries.
- To avoid injury, make sure that the start/
stop system is switched off before working
in the engine compartment ¢page 73.
CD CAUTION
Always switch off the start/stop system
¢page 73 before driving through water.

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.

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 ¢,&. . ..,.

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

- 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.

- If you are using a child seat on the passen
ger seat in which the child faces the direc
tion of travel, you should move the passen
ger seat as far back as possible.
- 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
use a rearward-facing child seat on the
passenger's seat.
- Applies to vehicles with key-operated
switch for deactivating the passenger's
airbag: Do NOT use a rearward-facing child
seat on the passenger's seat while the
passenger's airbag is active. If you have no
alternative but to use a rearward-facing
child seat on the passenger's seat, the
passenger's airbag must be deactivated
beforehand via the key-operated switch*
¢ page 237. Make sure that the passeng
er's airbag is reactivated by means of the
key-operated switch* as soon as the child
seat is no longer needed on the passeng
er's seat.
- Always replace the child seat with a new one
after an accident as damage not externally
visible may have occurred.

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.
