On-board computer display
The on-board computer display monitors the dif­
ferent memory levels:
- Sho rt-term memory (on-board computer 1)
- Long-term memory (on-boa rd computer 2)
- Efficiency program
The following information can be displayed con­
secutively in the on-board computer:
- Tim e
- Date
- Estimated range based on current fuel level
- Estimated range based on current Ad Blue* level
- T ravel time
- Average consumption
- Average speed
- Distance
- Current fuel consumption
- Engine oil temperature indicator*
On-board computer O (short-term memory)
The short-term memory collects driving informa­
tion from the t ime the ignition is switched on un­
til it is switched off. If you cont inue dr iv ing
with­
in two hours
after switching the ignition off, the
new values are included when calculat ing the cur­
rent trip information. If stopped for more the
two hours, the short term memory is automati­
cally eras ed once you begin driving .
On-board computer fJ (long-term memory)
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automat ically. Yo u can se­
l ect the time period for evaluating trip informa­
tion yourself .

Opening and clo sin g
only the driver 's door or the entire vehicle should
un lock when unlocking
r::!;> page 39 .
Automatic locking (Auto Lock )
The Auto Lock function locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has
ex­
ceeded approx imately 9 mph (15 km/h).
The car is unlocked again once the ign ition key is
removed. In addition, the vehicle can be u nlocked
if the opening function in the power locki ng sys ­
tem sw itch is used or one of the door handles is
pulled .
I n the event of a crash with a irbag deployment ,
the doors automat ica lly unlock to allow access to
the vehicle.
Ant i-theft alarm s yst em *
If t he ant i-theft alarm system detects a veh icle
break-in, audio and v isual warning signals are
tr iggered .
The ant i- theft alarm system turns on automati ­
cally when you lock the vehicle .
It deactivates
when unlocking using the remote control key or
by touc hing the sensor on the door handle (con­
ven ience key).
To sw itch the ala rm off, press the@ button o n
the remote control key or convenience key or
sw itch the ignition on. The a la rm also stops auto ­
mat ica lly after a certain amount of time.

vehicle and flash once when you lock the vehicle .
If they do not f lash, one of the doors, the lug­
gage compartment lid or the hood is not locked
or the ignition is still sw itched on (the latter ap ­
plies to veh icles with a convenience key) .
Unintentionally loc king your se lf out
The fo llowing conditions prevent you from lock­
ing your remote control key in the vehicle :
- The vehicle does not lock with the central lock­

r::!;> page 39.
-On vehicles with a convenience key* , the lug ­
gage compartment lid un locks again after clos-
36
ing if the most recent ly used key is in the lug­
gage compartment.
To avo id accidentally locking yourself out, do not
l ock your vehicle with the remote control key or
convenience key* until all doors and the luggage
compartment lid ar e closed.
{!) Tips
- Do not leave va luables unattended in the ve­
hicle. A locked vehicle is not a safe!
- If the LED in the upper e dge of the drive r's
door turns on for about 30 seconds after
the vehicle is locked, there is a malfunction in the power locking or the anti-theft a larm
system *. Have the problem corrected by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility.

Parking system s
Rear parking system
Description
Applies to veh icles: w ith rear pa rk in g system
The rear parking system is an audible parking
aid.
Descri ption
There is a sensor in the rear bumper cover . If
these detect an obstacle, audible signals warn
you .
Make sure the sensors are not covered by stick­
ers, deposits or any other obstructions as it may
impair the sensor function. For information on
cleaning, refer to¢
page 274.
The range at which the sensors begin to measure
is approximately:
Side rear 3 ft (0.90
m)
Side center 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
The closer
you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audible signals .
A con­
tinuous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately
1 foot (0.30 meters) away.
Do not continue backing up¢.&.

mation on page 151,

If the distance to an obstacle remains constant,
the volume of the distance warning gradually drops after about four seconds (this is not apply
in the continuous tone range).
Activ ating
The parking system activates automatically when
the reverse gear is selected. You will hear a brief
confirmation tone.
