Airbag
system
- Always make sure that the side curtain
airbags can inflate without interference.
- Use the built-in coat hooks only for light-
weight clothing. Never leave any heavy or
sharp-edged objects in the pockets that
may interfere with airbag deployment
and can cause personal injury in a colli-
sion.
- Never use hangers to hang clothes on
the hooks.
- Only use factory-installed sun shades or,
if shades installed after the vehicle
leaves the factory, use only genuine Audi
sun shades.
- Never swing the sun visors over to the
side windows if things such as pens, ga-
rage door openers, hands-free speakers,
etc. are attached to the sun visors. They
could come loose and cause serious in-
jury if the side curtain airbag inflates.
- A deploying airbag inflates in a fraction
of a second and with great force.
- Never attach objects to the cover or in
the deployment zone of a side curtain
airbag.
- The airbag deployment zones must be
kept clear at all times. Make sure there
are no objects, pets, or other persons in
the space between any vehicle occupant
and any airbag at any time.
- Do not attach any accessories to the
doors.
A
WARNING
- The airbag system can deploy only once.
If the airbag has been triggered, the sys-
tem must be replaced by an authorized
Audi dealer or qualified workshop.
- Always have work involving the side cur-
tain airbag system, removal and installa-
tion of the airbag components, or other
repairs performed by a qualified dealer-
ship. Otherwise the airbag system may
not work correctly.
- Never attempt to modify any compo-
nents of the airbag system in any way.
