Instruments and warning/indicator lamps
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, note the following points:
just 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 from the steering wheel. It is impor­tant to sit in a normal, upright position and set the backrest so it is fully against your back. The top of the head restraint should be at eye level (or higher). Put your feet in a comfortable position in the footwell.
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

Category 1 Category 2Category 0
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 childs weight and height. The safest place for the child restraint system is behind the front passenger’s seat. Make sure that the system is properly secured. The retractor mechanism of the seat belts can be locked to secure a child safety seat.
Please observe the notes in the Audi Owners Manual and refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the child seat.
