ment cluster is part of the On Board Diagnostic
System (080 II).
The warning/indicator light turns on when the ig nition is switched on and turns off once the en
gine is started and is running in id le at a stable
speed. This indicates that the MIL is functioning
correctly.
If the light doe s not turn off after starting th e
engine or turns on whi le driving, this may indi
cate there is a malfunct ion in the engine. If the
26
indicator tu rns on, the cata lytic conve rter may be
damaged.

high speeds for extended per iods of t ime and/o r
fast acceleration) and have the ma lfunction cor
rected. See an authorized Audi dealer or author
i zed Audi Service Facility .
The ind icator may turn on if the e lectro nic speed

Airbag monitoring indicator light
Two separate indicators monitor the function of
the Advanced Airbag System: the airbag moni
toring indicator light and the
PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF
light.
The Advanced Airbag System as we ll as the side
airbags and side c urtain airbags with ejection
mitigation features (including the e lectroni c con
trol unit, sensors and system wiring) are all
monitored continuously to make sure that they
are funct ioning prope rly whenever the ignition is
on . Eve ry t ime yo u tur n on the igni tion, the air
bag sys tem ind icator light
II (USA models)/ m
(Ca nada models) will come on for a few seconds
(func tion chec k).
The system must be inspected when the
indicator light
ffl (USA models) / fll
(Canada model s):
- does not come on w hen the ignition is switched
on,
- does not go out a few seconds after you have
switched on the ign ition, or
- comes on wh ile driving .
I f an a irbag system ma lf u nction is detected, the
indicator light wi ll first sta rt flash ing to catch the
d river's atte ntion and then stay on co ntin uous ly
to serve as a constant reminder to have the sys
tem inspected immed iate ly.
I f a malfunction occurs that turns the front air
bag on the passenge r side off, the
PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF
ligh t will come on and stay on
wheneve r th e ignition is on .
.&_ WARNING
An airbag system that is not f unct io ning prop
er ly cannot provide supplemental protection
in a frontal crash.
- If the airbag indicato r light ¢
page 21
comes when the vehicle is being used, have
t h e system inspected immediate ly by your
autho rized Aud i dealer . It is possible that
196
the airbag will inflate when it is not sup
posed to, or will not inflate when it should.
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light
Fig . 166 Center co nsole: passenger a irbag off warning
light
The PAS SENG ER AI R BAG OFF light is located in
the center of the instrument panel ¢

The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light will come on
and stay on to tell you when the front Advanced
Airbag on the passenger side has been turned off by the electronic contro l unit . If the b ulb for the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light b urns out, the
a irbag indicato r light
II (USA models)/ m
(Canada mode ls) wi ll come on to signa l a mal
funct io n in t he Advanced Ai rbag System. A l
though the burned -out bulb wi ll not change the
way the front passenger's frontal airbag works, it
will no longer be possible to use the
PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF
light to make sure that the airbag
on/off status is correct for the occupant on the
front passenger seat . Have the airbag system in
spected immed iately by yo ur authorized Audi
dealer .
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light will blink
for about 5 seconds when:
-the ignition is sw itched on and

change in the status of the front passenger
seat.
As soon as the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light
stops blinking, always make sure that the airbag

- If you should ingest any battery acid, seek
medical attention immediately.
- Do not expose the battery to an open flame,
electric sparks or an open light.
- Do not smoke.
- Do not interchange the positive and nega-
tive cab les.

the anti-theft alarm system! Otherwise you
will set off the a larm.
- When disconnecting the battery, first dis
connect the negative cable and then the
posit ive cab le.

all electrical consumers are switched off.
Reconnect the positive cab le first and then
the negative cable . Never interchange the
cables - th is could start a fire!
- Never charge a frozen o r a thawed-out bat
tery. It could explode! If a battery has fro-
Checking and Filling
zen, then it must be replaced. A discharged
battery can freeze over at 32 °F (0 °C).
- Make sure the vent hose is always attached
to the opening on the side of the battery.
- Never use batteries which are damaged.
There is the danger of an exp losion! Always
replace a damaged battery.
