NOTICE

When the engine is cold, avoid high engine speeds, driving at full throttle and overloading the
engine.
The needle on the rev counter should only briefly point into the red area, as engine damage may
otherwise be incurred.

Changing up a gear early will help to save fuel and reduce engine noise.

Digital instrument cluster (Active Info Display)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
The Active Info Display is a digital instrument cluster with high-resolution TFT colour display. To
complement the standard dials such as the rev counter and speedometer, users can choose from
various "information profiles" to view additional data.

If the outside temperature falls below approximately +4°C (+39°F), the temperature display also
shows a snowflake symbol . This symbol remains lit up until the outside temperature rises
above +6°C (+43°F) ⇒ .
Heat radiated from the engine may cause the temperature display to show a slightly higher value
than the actual outside temperature if the vehicle is stationary, the auxiliary heater ⇒ Auxiliary

Doors and central locking button
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Indicator lamp in the driver door 
⇒ Automatic locking and unlocking 
⇒ Central locking button 
⇒ Opening and closing the driver door manually 
⇒ Manually closing the front passenger door and rear doors 
⇒ Childproof lock 
⇒ SAFELOCK 
⇒ Troubleshooting 
If the vehicle key or central locking fails, the doors can be locked manually and, in some cases, also
unlocked manually.
The central locking system enables you to centrally lock and unlock all the doors, the boot lid and
the tank flap of the vehicle.

Never leave children or people requiring assistance alone in the vehicle. All doors can be locked from
the inside using the central locking button. This may mean that people lock themselves in the
vehicle. People locked in the vehicle may be subjected to very high or very low temperatures.
Temperatures inside a locked vehicle may become extremely hot or cold, depending on the season.
This can cause serious injuries and illness or fatalities, especially in the case of small children.
Never leave anyone inside a locked vehicle. People in the vehicle could become trapped in an
emergency and will not be able to get themselves to safety.

NOTICE
When carrying out manual opening or closing, remove parts carefully and install them again
correctly in order to avoid damage to the vehicle.
Indicator lamp in the driver door
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
The central locking indicator lamp is located in the driver door ⇒ Vehicle overviews .
Vehicle is locked: a red LED flashes for approximately two seconds, firstly at short intervals and then
more slowly. The indicator lamp does not flash if the vehicle was locked with the central locking
button in the driver door ⇒ Central locking button .
Automatic locking and unlocking
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒Introduction 
Settings for central locking can be made in the Vehicle settings menu in the Infotainment system
⇒ Infotainment system controls and displays .
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The vehicle can lock itself automatically at speeds above approximately 15 km/h (9 mph). The
indicator lamp in the central locking button will light up yellow when the vehicle is locked.
Automatic unlocking (Auto Unlock)
If one of the following conditions applies, all doors and the boot lid will be automatically unlocked:
The vehicle is at a standstill and the vehicle key has been removed.
In vehicles with DSG® dual clutch gearbox: the selector lever is in position P and the ignition has
been switched off.
OR: the vehicle is stationary and the button has been pressed.
OR: the door release lever has been operated.
OR: in an accident where the airbags have been triggered ⇒ Troubleshooting .
Automatic unlocking provides access to the vehicle if assistance is required.

The operation and freedom of movement of all pedals must never be impaired by objects or floor
mats.
Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area free and can be securely fastened in the footwell so
that they do not slip.

WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can interfere with pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control of
the vehicle and increase the risk of serious injury.
Make sure that all pedals can always be operated without any interference.
The floor mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.
Never place additional floor mats or other floor coverings over the fitted floor mat.
Make sure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.
If there are any objects in the footwell, remove them when the vehicle is parked.
