16 Instrum ent s and w arn ing /indic ato r light s
;;./~ Electronic Stabilization Control
(ESC)
This warning/indicator light monitors the
Electronic Stabilization Control.
If the JjJ indicator lamp blinks while driving,
the ESC or ASR (Ant i-S lip Regulation) is active­
l y regulating.
If th€
JjJ indicator lamp illuminates, the sys ­
tem has switched the ESC off. In this case, you
can switch the ignition off and then on to
switch the ESC on again. The system is func­
tioning comp letely whe n the indicator lamp
switches off .
If the
i indicator lamp illuminates, the ESC
was switched off with the
I ~ O FF I button.
St abili zation con trol (E SC/ ABS): Fa ult! See

If th€ J_j) indicator lamp and the [I] ABS indi­
cator lamp illuminate and the dr iver message
appears, the ABS or e lectronic differential lock
i s ma lfunctioning . This also interrupts the
ESC. The brakes st ill function with the ir nor­

~/ !'!r Safety systems
The I (USA models)/ . (Canada models) in­
d icator light monitors the safety systems (e .g.
a irbags, pretensioners) and illuminates for a
few seconds each time you switch the ignition
on.
I f the
I (USA models) • (Canada models)
i ndi cator light does not go out, or if it illumi­
nates w hile you are driv ing, or if it sta rts to
b link, then there is a ma lfunct ion somewhere
in the system. If the light does not illuminate
when you switch the ignition on, this also
means there is a ma lfunction.
A WARNING
If you have a ma lfunction in the safety sys­
tems, contact your authorized Audi dealer
i mmediately. Otherwise the safety sys­
tems may not work properly in an acc i­
den t.
¢ Q Turn signals
The indicator light blinks when you use either
turn signal .
Whenever you use the left a or the right .
turn s ignal, the indicator light blinks . When
you use the emergency flashers, both indica­ tor lights flash .
If one of the turn signa l light bulbs burn out,
the turn signal will blink twice as fast as nor­ mal.
This does not apply, however, in towing mode.
The ind icator light does not flash if a turn sig­
nal is out on the trailer or the towing veh icle .
Additional informat ion on the turn s ignals
¢ page 60.
¢1¢ Trailer turn signal assembly
Applies to veh icles: w ith towing hitch
The indicator light also blinks if the turn sig ­
nal is operated when towing a trailer.
The ind icator light. bli nks when the turn
s ignal is used, if a tra iler has been proper ly
co nn ected to the vehicle.
If one of the turn signa l bulbs on the trailer is
burned out or defective, the ind icator light
will not blink when you use the turn signa ls .
(D Tips
For vehicles with a factory installed towing
hitch or a trailer hitch that was installed
later according to factory spec ificat ions,
the trailer turn sig nal assembly is actuat­
ed.

flame, electric sparks or an open light.
- Do not smoke.
- Do not interchange the positive and neg-
ative cables.
- When working on the battery, be sure
not to short-circuit the terminals with
tools or other metal objects. This would cause the battery to heat up very quickly,
