Vehicle safety
The Audi TT Coupé has head-thorax side air-
bags for the driver and front passenger.
These side airbags are integrated in the seat
backrests and extend from the rib cage area
up to the head when inflated.
When the side airbag is tripped, the head and
neck areas are thus provided with better pro-
tection.
In the Audi TT Coupé, the belt tensioners can
be fired independently of the airbags depen-
ding on how the trigger criteria are defined.
The Audi TT Coupé has a disable function for
deactivating the front passenger airbag.
When using Reboard child seats on the front
passenger seat, the driver must disable the
front passenger airbag with the vehicle key via
the key switch located inside the glove box
(see Operating Manual Audi TT Coupé).
A yellow indicator light in the
central console indicates when
the airbag is deactivated.
