Doors, bonnet and boot open
After unlocking the vehicle and while driving,
the display on the instrument panel shows
whether any of the doors, bonnet and the
boot are open and, if necessary, it may also
be indicated by an acoustic signal. The dis-
play may vary according to the type of instru-
ment panel fitted.
Selector lever positions (DSG ®
dual clutch
gearbox)
The current position of the selector lever is
displayed both next to the lever and on the
instrument panel display. When the lever is
in the D/S position, as well as in the Tiptronic
position, the gear engaged at any time is dis- played on the instrument panel display.
Outside temperature display
If the outside temperature is lower than ap-
prox. +4°C (+39°F), the external temperature
display additionally lights up the “snowflake
symbol” 
. This symbol remains lit until the
outside temperature rises above +6°C
(+43°F) ›››
.
When the vehicle is stationary, when the aux-
iliary heater is switched on or when driving at very low speed, the outside temperature dis-
played may be higher than the actual temper-
ature due to the heat discharged by the en-
gine.
The measuring range extends from -45°C
(-49°F) to +76°C (+169°F).
Gear-change recommendation
While driving, the instrument panel may indi-
cate a gear-change recommendation for sav-
ing fuel.

travelled by the car.
The odometer (trip
) displays the distance
travelled since the last odometer reset.●

tainment System or the multifunction steer-
ing wheel ››› page 5

it could stop in traffic and accidents and seri- ous injuries could occur.●
If the level of the fuel tank is too low, the
fuel could reach the engine irregularly, espe- cially when going up or down slopes.
●
The steering and the driver and braking as-
sist systems do not work if the engine runs ir- regularly or if it switches itself off due to lack
of fuel or its irregular topping up.
●
Refuel as long as there is only a quarter of
fuel left in the tank to prevent the vehicle
from stopping due to lack of fuel.
CAUTIONNever run the fuel tank completely dry. If the
fuel is not topped up regularly, it may cause
faulty combustion and unburnt fuel could
reach the exhaust system. The catalytic con-
verter or the particle filter could be damaged!NoteThe small arrow on the fuel gauge next to the
fuel dispenser symbol points to the side of
the vehicle where the fuel tank flap is loca-
ted.Engine coolant temperature displayFig. 4
