reason, children should never be left unat-
tended in the vehicle because they could be
injured.
— Exercise caution when adjusting the seat
height. Unsupervised or careless seat adjust-
ment can pinch fingers or hands causing in-
juries.
— The front seat backrests must not be re-
clined too far back when driving, because
this impairs the effectiveness of the safety
belts and airbag system, which increases the
risk of injury.
—To minimize the risk of injury during sudden
braking or a collision, the driver and the
front passenger must not drive or ride with
the backrest in the reclined position. The
safety belts and airbag system can only pro-
vide the greatest protection possible when
the backrests are in the upright position and
the safety belts are worn correctly. The more
a backrest is reclined, the greater the risk of
injury due to an incorrect seating position
and safety belt position.

circulation. The air quality sensor that is de-
signed for diesel and gasoline exhaust auto-
matically switches the recirculation mode on or
off depending on the level of pollutants in the
outside air.
In recirculation mode, the air inside the vehicle is
circulated and filtered. This prevents the unfil-
tered air outside the vehicle from entering the
vehicle interior. Switching recirculation mode on
when driving through a tunnel or when sitting in
traffic is recommended > A.
Pressing the <> button, AUTO or the & button
switches recirculation mode off.

that the steering wheel is level with your
chest.
— Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions to reduce the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys.
— Never hold the steering wheel in the 12
o'clock position or with both hands on the
rim or the center of the steering wheel.
Holding the steering wheel incorrectly sig-
nificantly increases the risk of injury to the
hands, arms and head if the airbag deploys.
ZA WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering wheel adjust-
ment and an incorrect seating position can
cause serious injuries.
— Only adjust the steering column when the
vehicle is stationary so that you do not lose
control of the vehicle.
— Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is at least a 10 in (25 cm) dis-
tance between your chest and the steering
wheel. If you do not maintain this distance,
you will not be properly protected by the air-
bag system.
— If your physical characteristics prevent you
from sitting at least 10 in (25 cm) or more
away from the steering wheel, see if an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility can provide adapters that
will help.

short time. If this is the case, repeat the starting
procedure after approximately 30 seconds.
ZA\ WARNING
— To reduce the risk of asphyxiation, never al-
low the engine to run in confined spaces.
— Never turn off the engine before the vehicle
has come to a complete stop.
— The brake booster and power steering only
work when the engine is running. If the en-
gine is off, you have to use more force when
steering or braking. The fact that you cannot
steer and brake as usual may increase the
risk of accidents and serious injuries.
© Note
Avoid high engine speed, full throttle, and
heavy engine load if the engine has not
reached operating temperature yet. You could
damage the engine.
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not let the engine run while parked to
warm up. Begin driving immediately. This re-
duces unnecessary emissions.
@ Tips
— Some noise after starting the engine is nor-
mal and is no cause for concern.
— If you leave the vehicle with the ignition
switched on, the ignition will switch off af-
ter a certain amount of time. Make sure that
electrical equipment such as the exterior
lights are switched off.
Stopping the engine
> Bring the vehicle to a full stop.
> Press the [START ENGINE STOP
button.
Emergency off function*
If it is absolutely necessary, the engine can also
be turned off while driving at speeds starting at
4 mph (7 km/h). To stop the engine, press the
START ENGINE STOP] button twice in a row or
press and hold it one time.
58
Z\ WARNING
— Never turn off the engine before the vehicle
has come to a complete stop. Switching it
off before the vehicle has stopped may im-
pair the function of the brake booster and
power steering. You may need to use more
force when braking or steering. Because you
cannot brake and steer as you usually would,
this could lead to accidents and serious inju-
ries.
— If you leave the vehicle, switch the ignition
off and take the vehicle key with you. If you
do not do this, the engine could be started
and electrical equipment such as the power
windows could be activated. This can lead to
serious injuries.
— For safety reasons, always park the vehicle
with the selector lever in the P position.
Otherwise, there is the risk that the vehicle
could roll unintentionally.
@) Note
If the engine has been under heavy load for
an extended period of time, heat builds up in
the engine compartment after the engine is
switched off and there is a risk of damaging
the engine. For this reason, let the engine run
at idle for approximately two minutes before
shutting it off.
(i) Tips
For up to 10 minutes after stopping the en-
gine, the radiator fan may turn on again auto-
matically or it may continue to run, even if the
ignition is switched off.

> Turn the steering wheel when parking on in-
clines so that the wheels will roll into the curb
if the vehicle starts moving.
ZA WARNING
— Ifa gear is engaged while the vehicle is sta-
tionary and the engine is running, do not
press the accelerator pedal inadvertently.
Otherwise, the vehicle will start to move im-
mediately and this could result in an acci-
dent.
— Emergency braking should only be used in
an emergency, when the when the standard
brake pedal is malfunctioning or obstructed.
During emergency braking, your vehicle will
brake similar to heavy braking. ESC and the
associated components (ABS, ASR, EDL) can-
not overcome the laws of physics. In corners
and when road or weather conditions are
bad, a full brake application can cause the
vehicle to skid or the rear end to swerve,
which increases the risk of an accident.
— If the power supply fails, you cannot set the
parking brake once it is released. In this
case, park the vehicle on level ground and
secure it by placing the selector lever in the
P position. See an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility for assis-
tance.
— If you leave the vehicle, switch the ignition
off and take the vehicle key with you. This
applies particularly when children remain in
the vehicle. Otherwise children could start
the engine, release the parking brake or op-
erate electrical equipment such as power
windows, which increases the risk of an acci-
dent.
— No one should remain in the vehicle when it
is locked - especially children. Locked doors
make it more difficult for emergency work-
ers to get into the vehicle, which puts lives
at risk.
C) Note
Do not leave your vehicle unattended while
the engine is running, because this increases
the risk of an accident.

the selector lever.
— The vehicle can roll even if the ignition is
switched off.
— Never select "R" or "P" while driving, be-
cause this increases the risk of an accident.
— Power is still transmitted to the wheels
when the engine is running at idle. To pre-
vent the vehicle from “creeping”, you must
keep your foot on the brake in all selector
lever positions (except “P”) when the engine
is running. Otherwise, this increases the risk
of an accident.
— Do not inadvertently press the accelerator
pedal when the vehicle is stopped if a gear is
engaged. Otherwise the vehicle will start to
move immediately, even if the parking brake
is set. This could result in a crash.
— Do not press the accelerator pedal when
changing the selector lever position while
the vehicle is stationary and the engine is
running.
— Never leave your vehicle with the engine
running while in gear. If you must leave your
vehicle when the engine is running, set the
parking brake and move the selector lever to
the "P" position.
—To decrease the risk of an accident, the se-
lector lever must be in the P position and
