Introduction
General notes
The driver informa tion display inside the in­
strument cluster provides you, the driver,
with much useful information.

Information from the driver information sys­
tem is shown in the display in the center of
the instrument cluster.
When you turn on the ignition and while you
are driving, some functions and vehicle com­
ponents are scanned for their operating sta­
tus. Malfunctions or required service proce­
dures are signaled audibly and shown by red
and yellow lighted symbols and rem inders to
the dr iver in the display.
The driver is also shown information about ra­
d io and CD operation and directions for the
nav igation system*. You can find add itional
i n formation on these subjects in the M MI
manual.
The illustrations in the instrument panel dis­
play differ in some of the vehicles .

Outside temperature display
Fig. 11 Display : outside te mperature
At temperatures below 41 °F (+S °C), a snow­
flake symbol appears in front of the tempera­ ture display . It is intended to remind the driv ­
er to pay spec ial attent ion to
ic e on the roa d.
If your vehicle is stat ionary or if you are driv­
ing at very low speeds, the temperature dis­
played may be slightly higher than the actual
temperature outside due to the heat radiating
from the eng ine .
The unit of measurement for the temperature
can be set in either °For in °Con the MM I* or
on the radio control un it . The outside temper­
ature display automatically shows the unit of
measurement that has been set. For addition­
a l information, see the MMI* or the radio in­
struction manua l.
_& WARNING
- Never use the outside temperature d is ­
play to determine if a road surface is icy
or not. Keep in mind that road surfaces,
especially bridges and overpasses, could
be ice covered and slippery even at an
outside temperature above 41 °F (+S
0 ().
-Always remember, even if the "snow­
flake" symbol ( ice warn ing) does not ap­
pear i n the display, blac k ice could be on
the road.
- Always reduce you r speed and drive with
special care in cold weather conditions
when the chance of encountering icy
road s urfaces increases .
'
(D Tips
-If the vehicle is stationary, or if you are
dr iving at a very low speed, the tempera­
t u re shown in the d isp lay m ight be
slightly h igher than the actual outside
temperat ure. Th is is caused by the heat
being radiated from the engine .
Gearshift Indicator
Applies to vehicles: wit h manual transmiss ion and gear ­
shift indicato r
This indicator can help conserve fuel.

Shifting sugg estion .
In order to become familiar with the gearshift
indicter, at first just drive the way you are
used to.
If the current gear -and the dr iv ing
s ituation - is not the best one for conserving
fuel, then the indicator will disp lay the recom­
mended gear . The display shows the current
gear and the gear that is recommended
r:::> fig . 12.
- Up shifting The display will light up to the
right of the gear cu rrently selected if it is
recommend ing a higher gear .
-Downshift ing: The display will light up to
the
left of the gear currently se lected if it is
recommend ing a lowe r gear .
Somet imes the i ndicator will recommend
sk ipping a gear (3
> 5).

If there is no gearshift recommendation, then
just drive in the appropriate gear for conserv­
ing fuel.
@ Tips
-This indicator can help you conserve fuel.
This indicator is not meant to show you
which gear you should a lways be in in all
driving situations. Sometimes, in s itua­
tions such as passing, driving through mountains or when towing a trailer,
there won't be any gearsh ift recommen­
dat ion.
- The display does not light up when the
clutch pedal is be ing depressed .
Digital speedometer
Fig. 13 Display : Dig ital speedo mete r
Current speed appears in the display . Speed is
shown in 1 mph increments (USA models) or 1
km/h increments (Canada models) .
You can switch the display from miles to kilo­ meters and vice versa via the MMI*.

Fig. 22 Display: fuel economy message
F ue l economy messages are disp layed when
fuel consumption is increased by certain con­ ditions. If you follow these fuel economy mes­
sages, you can reduce your vehicle's consump­
tion of fuel. The messages appear automati­
cally and are only displayed in the efficiency program. The fuel economy messages turn

played in every instance, but rather in in­
tervals over a period of time.
On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) flllifi in
the instrument clus ter
9 page 13, fig. 8 is
part of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) sys­
tem .
The warning/indicator light illuminates whe n
the ign ition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the idle has stabilized. T
his indicates that the MIL is working proper­
ly .
If the light does not go out after the engine
is started, or illuminates while you are dr iv­
ing, a malfunction may exist in the engine sys ­
tem. If the light illuminates, the catalytic con­
verter could be damaged.
Continue driving
with reduced power (avoid­
ing sustained high speeds and/or rapid accel­
erations) and have the condition corrected.
Contact your authorized Audi dealer .
If the light illum ina tes, the electronic speed
limiter may also be mal functioning. For more
information ¢
page 2 7, Electronic speed
limiter .
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate
¢ page 234.
On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 23 Location of Data Link Connector (OLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the compo­
nents of your em iss ion contro l system . Each
monitored component in your engine system
has been assigned a code . In case of a mal­
function, the component will be identified
and the fault stored as a code in the control
module memory.
T he MIL light may also illuminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recovery sys­
tem . If the light illuminates after a refueling,
stop the vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is properly closed¢
