• When swi tching the ignition on, the needles in the instrument
cluster swing upward briefly.
• The illumination for the instrument cluster lights up wh en ever
you switch on the ignition with the
vehicle headlights off. As the
dayligh t fades , the instrument cluster illumina tion likewise dims
automatically and wil l go out completely when the outside light is
very low. This feature is meant to remind you to switch on the head ­
lights when outside light conditions become poor.•
Engine coolant temperature gauge
The engine coolant gauge=> fig . 2 CD only works when the ignition
is on . To prevent damage to your engine , please note the following
important points:
Engine cold
If th e needle is at or close to the bot tom of the gauge, the engine
has not yet reached its operating temperature. Avoid high engine
speeds, heavy engine loads, and heavy throttle app lications.
Normal temperature
When the engine has reached its operating temperature, the needle
will move to the middle o f the gauge and remain ther e. I f t he engine
is working hard at high outside temperatures , the needle may move
higher on the gauge. This is not a cause for concern as long as the
.J L warning light in the instrument cluster display does not illumi -
nate. .,

0 Note
Never run the tank completely dry! An irregular supply of fuel can
cause engine misfiring and fuel could enter into the exhaust
system. The cata lytic converter could then overheat and be
damaged .•
Odometer
The odometer indicates the distance driven.
Fig. 5 Instrument
cluster: odometer
Fig . 6 Instrument
c luste r: reset button
The display of distance driven is shown in kilometers "km" or in
"miles".

Driver information display
Service due
When the due date for service is reached, the message Service due
! appears in the instrument cluster immediately after you turn on
the ignition. Additionally, a warning tone sounds. After about 5
seconds the display switches back to normal.
Calling up the service schedules
If or when an oil change or inspection is due , can be shown in the
radio or MMI* display by selecting the service interval display in the
car menu. Select
[CAR]> Service interval display=> page 21, fig. 15.
Resetting the service interval display
Your authorized Audi dealer will reset the corresponding service
schedule after performing the appropriate service on your vehicle.
You also have the possibility to reset the oil change schedule after
having performed an oil change according to Audi specifications .
Select
(CAR]> Service interval display> Re set oil change interval.
0 Note
If you disconnect the battery terminals, no calculations can be
made for the service interva l display during this time and no service
reminder will appear. Remember that observing the proper service
interva ls is vita lly important to extending the life of your vehicle,
particularly the engine, and maintaining its value. Even if the
mileage driven is low, the maximum period of one year from one
service to the next must not be exceeded.
[ i ) Tips
• Do not reset the display between oil changes, o therwise the
display will be incorrect .
• The information in the Service Reminder remains stored
even
when the vehicle battery is disconnected. •
On-Board Diagnostic system (08D)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIU in the instrument cluster
=> page 12, fig. 7 is part of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) system.
The warning/ind icator light illuminates when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after the engine starts and the id le has
stabi lized. This indicates that the MIL is working proper ly .
If the light does not go out after the engine is started, or illuminates
while you are driving, a ma lfunction may exist in the engine system.
If the light illuminates, the catalytic converter could be damaged.
Continue driving
with reduced power (avoiding sustained high
speeds and/or rapid accelerations) and have the condition
corrected. Contact your authorized Audi dealer.
If the light illuminates, the electronic speed limiter may also be
malfunctioning. For more information=>
page 23, "Electronic speed
limiter".
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also cause the MIL light to
illuminate
=> page 267. •

Driver information display
The following information is continuously evaluated by the trip
computer and can be disp layed sequentially in the instrument
cluster display:
Fuel range
The estimated cruising range in miles (km) appears in the display.
This tells you how far your vehicle will be able to trave l on the
current tank of fuel and with the same driving style. The display
changes in increments of 6 miles (10 km).
The cruising range is ca lculated based on the fuel consumption for
the last 18 miles (30 km). If you drive conservatively, the cruising
range will increase.
Average fuel mileage
The average fuel economy in MPG (1/100 km) since you last cleared
the memory appears in this display. You can use this display to
adjust your driving technique to achieve a desired mileage.
Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in mi les per ga llon 0/100 km)
is shown in this display. You can use this display to adjust your
driving technique to achieve a desired mileage.
Fuel consumption is recalcu lated at intervals of 33 yards (30
meters). This display switches to gal lons/hour (liters/hour) when the
vehic le is not moving .
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) since the last time the display was
reset appears in the display.
Elapsed time
The length of t ime that you have been driving since you last reset
the memory appears in this display.
Distance
The distance that has been covered since the last time the memory
was cleared appears in the display.
[ i ] Tips
• Fuel consumpt ions (average and current), range and speed are
displayed in metric units on Canadian models.
• All stored values will be lost if the vehicle battery is
disconnected. •
Memori es
The trip computer is equipped with two fully automatic
memories.
Fig . 20 Trip computer
display: memory level 1
You can switch between the trip computer 1 and 2 by pressing the
Reset button
@ ~ page 25, fig . 21.
You can tell which memory level is currently active by the number in
the display ~ fig. 20. The data from the single -trip memory
(memory leve l 1) is being displayed if a
1 appears in the display. If a
2 is shown, then the data from the total-trip memory is being
displayed (memory level 2l.
Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1 l
The single -trip memory stores the trip information from the time the
ignition is turned on until it is turned off. If the trip is continued
within 2 hours from the time the ignition was turned off, the new
da ta will be included in the calculation of the current trip informa -_.,,

tion. If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours the memory is
reset automatica lly.
Total-trip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-tr ip memory is not reset
automatically. This permits you to evaluate your driving data for the
entire period between manual resets. •
Operation
The trip computer is controlled by two switches on the
windshield wiper lever.

Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep your driving
speed below a set speed limit.
The speed warning system warns if the driver exceeds a previously stored maximum speed . A warning tone wi ll sound as soon as the
vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 3 mph (3 km/h) . At the
same time, a warning symbol appea rs in the display. The symbol's
appearance might be different in some models.
The speed warning system has
t w o wa rning thr esholds that func ­
tion independent ly o f each other and that have somewha t di fferent
purposes:
S p eed war ning 1
You can use speed warning 1 to set the maximum speed while you
are driving. This setting will remain in effect un til you turn off the
ignition, assuming that you have not changed or res et the setting.
The speed warning symbol
8 (USA mode ls)/ 8 (Canada models) in
the warning 1 disp lay appears when you exceed the maximum
speed. It goes out when the speed falls be low the stored maximum
speed . T
he speed warning symbol wi ll also go out if the speed
exceeds the
stored maximum speed by more than about 25 mph
(40 km/h) for at
least
10 seconds . The stored maximum speed is deleted.
Setting speed warning 1
::;> page 26 .
S peed w arning 2
Storing warning 2 is recommended if you always want to be
reminded of a certain speed, for example when you are traveling in
a country that has a general maximum speed limit, or if you do not
want to exceed a specified speed for winter tires.
T he speed warning 2 symbol,
8 , (USA models)/ 0 (Canada models)
appears in the display when you exceed the stored speed limit .
Un like warning 1, it wi ll not go out until the vehic le speed drops
b el ow the stored speed limi t.

[ i ] Tips
Even though your vehicle is equipped with a speed warning system,
you shou ld still watch the speedometer to make sure you are not
driving faster than the speed l im it . •
