or the Audi virtual cockpit*.
1) Note
- Depending on the vehicle equipment, the
instrument lighting (for dials and needles)
may be switched on when the ignition is on
and the vehicle's lights are off. The illumi­
nation of the diaLs and needles is automati­
cally reduced as it becomes dark outside
and is eventually switched off altogether.
This function is intended to remind the driv­
er to switch on the dipped headlights in
good time.
- You can change the measurement units for
temperature or speed, etc. via the infotain­
ment system

Coolant temperature gauge
The coolant temperature gauge

Fig.

12, Fig. 3 only works when the ig­
nition is switched on. In order to avoid possible
damage to the engine, please read the following
notes for the different temperature ranges.
Engine cold
If the LEDs are still in the lower range of the dis­
play, this indicates that the engine has not yet
reached operating temperature. Avoid high en­
gine speeds, full acceleration and heavy engine

loads.

Normal temperature
The LEDs will settle somewhere in the centre of
the display once the engine has reached operat­
ing temperature. If the warning lamp || lights
up in the instrument cluster display, the coolant
temperature is too high

- Additional lights and other accessories in
front of the air inlet reduce the cooling ef­
fect of the radiator. At high outside temper­
atures and high engine loads, there is a risk
of the engine overheating.
- The front spoiler also ensures proper distri­
bution of the cooling air when the vehicle is

moving.
If the spoiler is damaged this can
reduce the cooling effect, which could cause
the engine to overheat. Obtain professional
assistance.
® Note
Applies to: vehicles with diesel engine
These engines are so efficient that they may
not reach their full operating temperature in
very cold weather. This is quite normal and no
cause for concern.
Rev counter

The
rev counter indicates the number of engine
revolutions per minute.
The start of the red zone on the dial indicates the
maximum engine speed which may be used brief­
ly in all gears when the engine is warm and after
it has been run in properly. However, it is advisa­
ble to change up a gear or move the selector lev­
er to D/S (or
lift your
foot
off
the accelerator) be­
fore the needle reaches the red zone. •

-Short-term
memoryD

- Average fuel consumption
- Long-term memory B
The single journey memory processes the infor­
mation on
a
journey from the time the ignition is
switched on until it is switched off. If the journey
is resumed within two hours after the ignition is
switched off, the new figures are automatically
included in the calculation.
Unlike the single journey memory, the
total
jour­
ney memory is not erased automatically. In this
way, you can determine the period for which you
wish the on-board computer to supply driving in­

formation.

The following additional display may be available
in the on-board computer, depending on the ve­
hicle equipment:
- Active Cylinder Management: The engine auto­
matically shuts down two cylinders when per­
formance demand is low and certain other
con­

ditions have been met. This process is imper­
ceptible to the occupants. The driver message

2-cylinder
mode will appear if the current or
average fuel consumption display
oFig.
16 is
selected in the instrument cluster. The cylin­
ders are reactivated under heavier load condi­

tions.

Efficiency program
3

Applies to: vehicles with efficiency program
The efficiency program can help to save
fuel.
It
evaluates fuel efficiency data, shows a list of aux­
iliary equipment affecting fuel consumption, and
suggests gear changes. It also provides economy
tips for saving
fuel.

The efficiency program uses the trip and fuel
con­

sumption data from the short-term memory.
When you clear the data from the efficiency pro­

gram,
the values in the short-term memory are
reset to zero.
The following additional displays are available in
the efficiency program, depending on the vehicle
equipment:
- Advanced gear-change indicator: The advanced
gear-change indicator is based on the same
log­

ic as the "regular" gear-change indicator. The
"regular" gear-change indicator disappears
from the display when the advanced gear-
change indicator appears
^>page
14.
- Energy consumers: The efficiency program
shows a List of energy consumers currently af­
fecting the vehicle's fuel consumption. The dis­
play shows up to three energy consumers. The
energy consumer drawing the most power ap­
pears at the top of the list. If more than three
energy consumers are switched on, the ones
currently using the most power are displayed.
In addition, a scale indicates the overall current
fuel consumption of all energy consumers.
- Economy
tips:
Economy tips will automatically
appear intermittently in the efficiency program •

Speed warning function
Applies to: vehicles with speed warning function
The speed warning function can
help
you keep
below a pre-set maximum speed. It can be set,
changed and deleted on the infotainment sys­
tem.
The speed warning function will warn you if the
vehicle exceeds the pre-set maximum speed. The
system gives an audible warning signal if the set
speed is exceeded by a small amount. At the
same time, a warning lamp [5] and a message
will appear on the instrument cluster display.
The indicator Lamp [5] and the message will dis­
appear when the road speed drops below the set

value.

You are recommended to store this speed limit
warning if you wish to be reminded of a particu­
lar speed limit. This could be when driving in
countries with general speed limits, or if you
need to keep below a particular speed when
win­

ter tyres are fitted, etc.
Setting speed limit warning

•
Select the following on the infotainment sys­

tem:
IMENUI
button > Car > left control button
> Driver assist > Speed warning > manual.
© Note
- Please bear in mind that, even with the
speed warning function, it is still important
to keep a check on the car's speed with the
speedometer and to observe the statutory
speed limits.
- On vehicles for some markets, the speed
warning function warns you when you reach
a speed of 120 km/h. This speed limit warn­
ing is preset at the factory.
Switching on
Applies to: vehicles with cruise control system
The cruise control system allows you to drive at a
constant speed of 20 km/h or
higher.

road,

even when you are using the cruise control

system.
It is always the driver who is re­
sponsible for determining the speed and for
keeping a safe distance to the other vehicles
on the
road.

- For safety reasons, the cruise control sys­
tem must not be used in city traffic, stop-
and-go traffic, on roads with a lot of bends
or in difficult or slippery driving conditions
(such as ice, fog, Loose grit or gravel, heavy

rain,
etc.) - risk of accident!
- When you take a turn-off, drive along a mo­
torway exit lane or pass through roadwork
