-Average consumption in MPG ( l/1 00 km)
from the short-te rm memory
- Average spee d in m ph ( km/ h) fr om the
short-te rm memory
- Dis tance driven i n m iles (km) from the
short -te rm memory

- Long-term memory overview
The short-term memo ry co llects driving infor­
mat ion from the time the ignition is switched
on un til it is switched off. If you continue dr iv­
ing within two hours after switching the igni­
tion off, the new values are included when cal­
culating the current trip information.
Unlike the short-te rm memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automatically. You can
select the time period for evaluating trip in­
formation yourself.
F or some veh icle functions, you can access the
trip information from the temporary memory
in the line
(D r=;, page 23, fig. 5.
The cu rrent fuel consumpt ion can be dis­
p layed using a bar
r=;, page 26, fig. 10. The
average consumption (mpg) stored in the
short-term memory is also displayed. Electri­
cal energy can be stored in the battery when
the vehicle is coasting or driving downhill (re­
cuperation) . The bar will move toward
t:3 .
Efficiency prog ram
The efficiency program can help you to use
less fuel.
It evaluates driving information in
reference to fuel consumption and shows oth­
er equipment influencing consumption as well
as shift recommendations.
r=;, page 25. Fuel
economy messages
r=;, page 25 provide tips
for efficient driving . The effic iency program
uses distance and consumption data from tr ip
computer

To display the efficiency program, call up Ve­
hicle functions and select the menu option
Efficiency program . If the data are deleted in
the efficiency program, those values are also
reset in trip computer .
(j) Tips
-All stored va lues will be lost if the veh i­

Evaluating times and continuing or
resetting timing
You can evaluate the fastest, slowest and
average lap times.
Fig. 18 Dis play : lap time eva luat ion
.,. To evaluate lap times, press the thumb­
wheel. The number of laps traveled, the
fastest lap"+", the slowest lap"- " and the
average lap t ime "0" appears in the display .
.,. To continue t iming for addit ional laps , press

On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ¢4 in
the instrument cluster is part of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD
II) system.
The warning/indicator light illuminates when
the ignition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the idle has stabilized .
This 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 driv­
ing, a malfunction may exist in the eng ine 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.
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate
¢page 210.
On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 19 Locat io n of Data Link Co nnector (D LC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the compo­
nents of your emission control 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.
The 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 refuelling,
stop the vehicle and make sure the fuel filler
cap is properly closed
Q page 210 .
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the
stored data can only be displayed using spe­
c ial d iagnostic equipment (generic scan tool
for OBD) .
In order to connect the special diagnostic
equipment, push the plug into the Data Link
Connector (DLC). The DLC is located to the
right of the hood release

- For safet y rea son s, the cruise control
should not be used in the city, i n stop­
and-go traff ic, on twist ing roads and
when road conditions are poor (such as ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and hydro­
planing) -risk of accident .
- Turn off the cruise control temporar ily
when ente ring turn lanes, highway exit
lanes or in construct ion zones.
- Please note that inadvertent ly "rest ing"
yo ur foot on the accelerator pedal causes
the cruise control not to brake. This is
because t he cr uise con trol is overridden
by the d river 's a cce le rat ion.
- If a bra ke system malfunction such as
overheat ing occurs when the cru ise con­
t ro l system is sw itched on, the braking
f unction in the system may be switched
off. The other cruise control f unctions re ­
ma in active as long as the indicator light
