Headrests (Audi A6 C5)

Correct installation of headrests

Correctly installed head restraints, combined with a fastened seat belt, provide effective protection.



Height adjustment

• Grasp the sides of the headrest with both hands.
• Adjust the position of the headrest so that the top edge of the headrest is at least at or above eye level.

Tilt adjustment

• Grasp the sides of the headrest with both hands and push it forward or backward.

Headrests are height and tilt adjustable. They should be installed according to height. Correctly installed headrests in combination with seat belts provide effective protection.

The optimal protective effect is achieved when the upper edge of the headrest is at least at or above eye level.

Armrest

The multi-stage adjustable armrest contains a storage compartment.



Adjusting the armrest position

• To adjust the position, hold down button A located at the end of the armrest and move the armrest down.
• Raise the armrest, passing through fixed positions until you reach the desired one.

Opening the storage compartment

• Pull the release handle B upwards.

Remember that when the armrest is lowered all the way, the mobility of the forearm is limited. Therefore, when driving around the city, do not lower the armrest.

Heated seats

It is possible to electrically heat the cushions and backrests of the front seats, as well as both rear outboard seats.



Front seats

• To turn on and regulate the heating of the driver's or front passenger's seat, turn the knurled control 1 or 2.

Rear seats

• To turn on and regulate the heating of the left or right rear seat, rotate the knurled control A or B.

To turn on the heating, the corresponding knurled handle is moved from position 0 and turned to one of six possible temperature ranges.

The seats are heated only when passengers are on them.



Heated steering wheel

When the seat heating is switched on, the steering wheel heating is automatically switched on. The temperature is preset and is not adjustable.

Caution: If possible, do not kneel on the seats or otherwise expose individual points of the seat surface to pressure, so as not to damage the heating elements.

Pedals

Only foot mats that do not extend into the pedal area and that can be secured to prevent them from slipping are permitted for use.

Attention

• There should be no foot mats or other additional floor covering items in the pedal area. It should be possible to fully depress all pedals and return them to their original position at any time!
• Under no circumstances should any objects be placed in the footwell, as they could end up in the pedal area during sudden braking, making it impossible for you to operate the brake, clutch or accelerator pedals – risk of accident!
