Seats and storag e
-The power front seats can a lso be adjusted
when the ignition is switched off. For this
reason, chi ldren should never be left unat­
tended i n the vehicle -they could be injured!
- E xercise caution when adjust ing the seat
he ight. Unsupe rvised or careless seat ad­
justment can pinch finge rs or hands caus ing
in ju ries .
- The front seat backrests must not be re­
clined too far back when driv ing, because
this impa irs the effect iveness of the safety
be lts and airbag system, w hich inc rea ses
the risk of i nju ry.
- T o m inimize the r isk of injury during s udden
b raking or a collision, the dr iver and the
front passe nger m ust not drive o r ride w ith
the backrest in the re clin ed position. The
safety belts and airbag system can on ly pro­
vide the greatest protection possib le w hen
the backrests are in the up right posit ion and
the safety belts are worn correctly. The
more a backrest is reclined , the greater the
risk of injury due to an i ncorrec t seating po­
sition and safety belt posit ion .

Important information
Importance of wearing safety belts and
sitting properly
Airbags are only supplemental restraints . For
airbags to do their job, occupants must always
properly wear their safety belts and be in a prop ­
er seating position.
For your safety and the safety of your passen­
ge rs , before driving off, always :
"' Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel
properly ¢
page 182,
"'Adjust the front passenge r's seat properly
¢ page 183,
"'Wear safety belts p roperly ¢ page 191,
"'Always properly use the proper child restraint
to protect children
¢ page 218.
In a coll is io n ai rbags must inflate wi thin the b link
of an eye and with cons iderable force . The sup ­
p lemental airbags can ca use inj uries if the driver
or th e front seat passenger is not seated proper·
Ly. T herefore in order to help the airbag to do its
job, it is important, both as a dr iver and as a pas­
senger to sit properly at all t imes .
By keeping room between your body and the
steering whee l and the front of the passenger
compartment, the a irbag can inflate fully and
completely and provide supplemental protect ion
in certain frontal collisions ¢
page 182, Correct
passenger seating positions .
For details on the
operation of the seat adjustment con trols
¢ page 47.
It's especially important that children are proper ­
ly restra ined
¢ page 218.
There is a lot that the driver and the passenger
can and must do to help the ind iv idual safety fea­
tures installed in your Audi work together as a
system .
Proper seating posit ion is important so that the
front airbag on the drive r side can do its job. If
you have a physical impairment or cond ition that
prevents you from s itting properly on the driver
seat with the safety be lt properly fastened and
196
reaching the peda ls, or if yo u have concerns w ith
regard to the function or operation of the Ad­
vanced Airbag System, please contact you r au­
thori zed Audi dea ler or qua lified workshop, or
ca ll Audi Customer Relations at 1 (800)
822 -2834 for possib le mod ificat ions to your ve ­
hicle .
When the airbag system dep loys, a gas generator
will fill the airbags, break open the padded cov­
ers, and inflate between the steeri ng wheel and
t h e d river and between the instrument pane l and
the front passenger . Th e a irbags w ill deflate im­
med iate ly after deployment so that the front oc­
cupan ts can see t hrou gh the windsh ield again
without interruption.
A ll of th is takes p lace in the b link of an eye, so
fast tha t many people don 't even rea lize that the
a irbags have deployed. The air bags also infl ate
with a great deal of force and no thing should be
in the ir way when they dep loy. Front airbags in
combination with properly worn safety belts slow
down and lim it the occupant's forward move­
ment . Together they help to prevent the driver
and passenger from hitting pa rts of the inside
the ve hicle while reducing the forces acti ng on
the occ upant d uri ng the crash . In this way they
help to reduce the risk of in ju ry to the head and
u pper body in the crash . A irb ags do not p rotec t
t h e arms o r th e lowe r parts of the body .
Both front airbags will not inflate in all frontal
collisions. The trigge ring of the a irbag system de­
pends on the veh icle deceleration rate caused by
t h e coll is ion and regis tered by the ele ctroni c con­
tro l unit. If this ra te is be low the reference value
programmed into the contro l unit, the airbags
will not be t riggered, even tho ugh the car may be
badly damaged as a resu lt of the co llision . Vehi­
cle damage, repa ir costs or even the lack of vehi­
cle damage is not necessarily an indication of
whether an a irbag should inflate or not .
Since the c ircumstances will vary cons iderably
between one co llision and another, it is not possi­
ble to define a range of veh icle speeds that will
cover every poss ible kind and angle of impact
that w ill always trigge r the a irbags . Importa nt
facto rs i nclude, for examp le, the nat ure (hard or
soft) of the objec t which the car h its, the angle of.,.

rearmost position in the seat's fore and aft
adjustment range, as far away from the air­
bag as possible, before insta lling the for­
ward-facing child restra int.
- lways make sure that the safety belt upper
anchorage is beh ind the child restraint and
not next to or in front of the child restraint
so that the safety belt will be properly pos i­
tioned.
-Always make sure that there is nothing on the front passenger seat that w ill cause the
c apacit ive passenger detection system in
the seat to signa l to the Airbag Sys tem tha t
the seat is occupied by a person when it is
not, or to signa l that it is occ upied by some ­
one who is heavier than the person actua lly
sitting on the seat . The p resence of addi­
t ional objects could cause the passenger
front airbag to be turned on when it shou ld
be off, or could cause the airbag to work in a
way that is different from the way it would
have worked witho ut the object on the seat.
- Make sure that the

Advanced Airbag System components
The front passenger seat in yo ur vehicle has a lot
of
very important parts of the Advanced Airbag
Sys tem in it . These pa rts in cl ude the capacitive
passenger detection system, w iring, brackets,
and mo re. The control un it monitors the system
on the front passenger seat when the ign ition is
switched on and turns the airbag indicator light
on when a malfunct ion in the one of the system
components is detected
c::> page 208 . Because
the fro nt passenger seat contains important
pa rts of the Advanced Airbag System, you must
take ca re to preven t it from being damaged.
D amage to the seat may p revent the Advanced
Ai rbag System for the front passenger seat from
doi ng its job i n a crash.
The front Advanced Airbag System consists
of the follow ing :
- C rash sensors in the front of the vehicle that
measure vehicle accelerat ion/dece leration to
Airb ag sys tem
provide information to the Advanced A irbag
System about the severity of the cras h.
- An elect ronic contro l unit, with integrated
cras h sensors for front and side impacts . The
control un it "decides" whether to fire the front
airbags based on the information rece ived from
the crash sensors . The control unit also "de­
cides" whether the safety belt pretensioners
should be activated.
- An Advanced A irbag w ith gas generator for the
driver inside the steeri ng wheel hub .
- An Advanced A irbag w ith gas generator inside
the instrument panel for the front passenger.
-A capacit ive passenger detection system under­
neath the front passenger seat
cover. This sys­
tem measures the e lectr ica l capacitance of the
person in the seat. The information registered
is sent continuously to the elect ronic contro l
un it to reg ulate dep loyment of the front Ad­
vanced Airbag on the p assenger side.
- An airbag monitoring system and indicator
light
El in the inst rument cl uste r.
- A sensor in each front seat registe rs the d is­
t ance betwee n the respective seat and the
steer ing whee l o r ins trumen t pa nel. The infor­
mat ion registered is sent con tinuous ly to the
electronic contro l unit to regu late dep loyment
of the front Advanced Airbags .
- The
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF~; lig ht comes
on and stays on in the headliner
c::> poge 208,
fig. 166 and tells you when the front Advanced
Airbag on the passenger side has been turned off.
- A sensor in the safety belt latch for the driver
and for the front seat passenger that senses
whether that safety be lt is latched or not and
transmits this information to t he electronic
cont rol un it .
A WARNING
Damage to the front passenge r seat can pre­
vent the front airbag from working prope rly.
- Imp roper repair or d isassembly of the front
passenger and driver seat will p revent the
Advanced Airbag Sys tem from f unct ion ing
p roper ly. ...,
