You can switch the daytime running
lights
on and off.
Canada models:
The function cannot be turned
off. It is activated automatically each time the ig­
nition is switched on.
Travel mode*
The headlight beam is asymmetrical. This pro­
vides stronger illumination on the side of the
road on which you are driving. If you are driving
in a country that drives on the opposite side of
the road from your own country, this will cause
glare for oncoming drivers. To prevent glare:
- Travel mode must be selected in vehicles with
Xenon headlights* .
- In vehicles with halogen headlights, certain
areas of the headlight lenses must be covered
with waterproof adhesive covers that prevent light from passing through. For more informa ­
tion, please see your authorized Audi dealer or authorized repair facility.
When travel mode is activated, a display in
the driver information system indicates this
each time you switch the ignition on.
