Adjust seat and sit in correct position
The front seats should not be positioned too close
to the steering wheel or dashboard. Maintain a distance
of at least 25 cm and sit in a normal upright position.
The top of the head restraint should be at eye
level or higher. Always keep your feet in the
footwell.
Safety
Seat belts must be worn on every journey, even on short trips in town. This
applies to the front and rear seats. To ensure that the seat belts, belt
tensioners and airbags are fully effective, please note the following points:
WARNING!
Please follow the instructions in the Owner's Manual
supplied with your Audi and read the instructions
provided by the child seat manufacturer.
Wear the seat belt correctly
Make sure that the shoulder section
of the belt is positioned over the
centre of the shoulder and move
the lap section as far down over
the hips as possible. The belts
should always be worn so that
they fit tightly (see illustration).
Safety of children in the vehicle
Children under 12 should travel on the rear
seat. They must be protected by a child restraint
system which complies with the European standard
ECE-R 44 and is suitable for the child’s height and weight.
The safest place for the child restraint system is behind the front
passenger’s seat.
