Coolant temperature indicator
The coolan t temperature display c:> page 8,
fig. 3
(D only functions when the ignition is
switched on. To prevent engine damage, p lease
observe the following notes about the tempera
ture ranges.
Cold rang e
If o nly the L EDs in the left area of the gauge turn
on, the engine has not reached operating tem
perature yet. Avoid high engine speeds, full ac
celerating and heavy engine loads .
Normal range
The engine has reached its operating tempera
ture once the LEDs up to the center of the gauge
turn on . If the . indicator light in the Infotain
ment system display turns on, the coolant tem
perature is too high
c:> page 12.

(D Note
-Aux iliary head lights and other accessories in
front of the coo ling-a ir intake impa ir the
cooling effect o f the coolant. This increases
the risk of the engine overheating during high outside temperatures and heavy en
gine load.
- T he front spoiler a lso helps to distribute
cooling air correctly while driving . If the
spoiler is damaged, the cooling effect will
be impaired and the risk of the eng ine over
heating w ill increase. See an authorized
Audi dealer or author ized Audi Service Fa
cility for assistance .
Fuel level
The indicator @ only func tions when the ignition
i s sw itched on. If the fuel level drops below 1.9
gal (7
L), a red LED wi ll light up and the rD indi
cator light will turn on
c:> page 16 . The LED
blinks red when the fuel level is very low.

Ill co
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev
olutions per minute (RPM) .
The beginning of the red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maximum permissible engine speed
for all gears once the engine has been broken in
and when it is warm. Before reaching the red
zone, you should shift into the next higher gear,
choose the Dor S selector lever position, or re
move your foot from the accelerator pedal.
@ Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short per iod of
time or there is a risk of damaging the engine .
The location where the red zone begins varies
depending on the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early helps you to save fuel and re
duce operating noise.

-Average consumption
-Range
- Short-term memory overv iew
- Long-term memory overview
The short -term memory collects driving informa
tion from the time the ignition is switched on un
til it is switched off. If you continue driving with·
in two hours after switching the ignition off, the
new values are included when calculating the cur
rent trip information .
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automatically. You can se
lect the time period for evaluating trip informa
tion yourself .
Fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption can be shown us
ing a bar graph . The average consumption stored
in the short-term memory is also displayed. If
the bar is green, your vehicle is saving fuel
through one of the following functions:
- Recuperation : electrical energy can be stored in
the vehicle battery when the vehicle is coasting or driving downhill. The bar will move toward
CJ .

The eng ine has reached its operating tempera
ture when the engi ne oil temperatu re is between
176 °F (80 °() and 248 °F (120 °C) under normal
driv ing cond itions. The eng ine o il temperature
may be higher if there is heavy engine load and
high temperatures outside. This is not a cause for
concern as long as the
. c> page 12 or
Ill e> page 15 indicator light is not flashing in the
display .
@ Tips
-You can select the units used for tempera
ture, speed and other measurements in the
Infota inment system.
- If your vehicle is stationary or if you are driv
ing at very low speeds, the temperature dis
played may be slightly higher than the ac
tual temperature outside due to the heat ra
diating from the engine.
- At temperatures below41 °F (+5 °(), a
snowflake symbol appears in front of the
tempe rature disp lay
