ZA\ WARNING
If there is a severe malfunction in the instru-
ment cluster, the display may turn off. The A
indicator light may also turn on. Stop the ve-
hicle safely. See an authorized Audi dealer or

authorized Audi Service Facility for assistance.

G) Tips
— You can select the units used for tempera-
ture, speed and other measurements in the
Infotainment system.
10
— Speeds are displayed in mph (miles per
hour) or km/h (kilometers per hour).
— If there is a malfunction in the instrument
cluster, DEF will appear in the trip odometer
display. Have the malfunction corrected as
soon as possible.
Coolant temperature
indicator
The coolant temperature indicator @) > page 10,
fig. 3 only operates when the ignition is switched
on. To reduce the risk of engine damage, please
observe the following notes about the tempera-
ture ranges.
Cold range
If only the LEDs at the bottom of the gauge turn
on, the engine has not reached operating tem-
perature yet. Avoid high engine speeds, full ac-
celerating and heavy engine loads.
Normal range
The engine has reached its operating tempera-
ture once the LEDs up to the center of the gauge
turn on. If the |_| indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster display turns on, the coolant tem-
perature is too high > page 207.

8S1012721BE
Instrument cluster

@) Note
— Auxiliary headlights and other accessories in
front of the air intake impair the cooling ef-
fect of the coolant. This increases the risk of
the engine overheating during high outside
temperatures and heavy engine load.
— The front spoiler also helps to distribute
cooling air correctly while driving. If the
spoiler is damaged, the cooling effect will
be impaired and the risk of the engine over-
heating will increase. See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Fa-
cility for assistance.
Tachometer
The tachometer (2) > page 10, fig. 3 displays the
engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM).
The beginning of the red zone in the tachometer
indicates the maximum permissible engine speed
for all gears once the engine has been broken in.
Before reaching the red zone, you should shift in-
to the next higher gear, choose the &#34;D&#34; or &#34;S&#34; se-
lector lever position, or remove your foot from
the accelerator pedal.
Engine speed limitation
Applies to: vehicles with center armrest
If the BB indicator light turns on, the engine will
be automatically limited to the RPM displayed in
the instrument cluster. This will protect the en-
gine components, for example during a cold start
or from overheating.
The engine speed limitation deactivates once the
engine is no longer in the critical temperature
range and you have released the accelerator ped-
al once.
If the engine speed limitation was activated by an
engine control malfunction, the B§ indicator
light also turns on. Make sure the engine speed
does not go above the speed displayed, for exam-
ple when downshifting. Drive to an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility im-
mediately to have the malfunction corrected.
CG) Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short period of
time before there is a risk of damaging the
engine. The location where the red zone be-
gins varies depending on the engine.
Odometer
11:30&#34;

Fig. 4 Instrument cluster: odometer and reset button
The trip odometer and odometer are displayed in
the status line ©) > page 10, fig. 3.
The trip odometer shows the distance driven
since it was last reset. It can be used to measure
short distances. The odometer shows the total
distance that the vehicle has been driven.
Resetting the trip odometer

> Press the reset button [0-0] on the instrument
cluster. The trip odometer will be reset to zero.
(i) Tips
Distances are displayed in mi (miles) or km
(kilometers).

Outside temperature
display
The outside temperature is displayed in the sta-
tus line ©) > page 10, fig. 3.
If your vehicle is stationary or if you are driving at
very low speeds, the temperature displayed in
the instrument cluster may be slightly higher
than the actual temperature outside due to heat
radiating from the motor.

*\ Engine stop while driving
If the S indicator light turns on, there may bea
malfunction in the engine or fuel supply.
More force is needed to steer and brake the mov-
ing vehicle when the engine is stopped. If the ve-
hicle is rolling, try to bring it to a stop off to the
side from moving traffic. See an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility for as-
sistance.

ZA\ WARNING
If the engine stops while driving, you will need
to use more force to brake the vehicle. This in-
creases the risk of an accident. There will still
be power steering if the ignition is switched
on while the vehicle is rolling and there is suf-
ficient battery charge. Otherwise, you must

use greater force when steering.

53/8 Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC)

If the B indicator light blinks while driving, the
ESC or ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) is actively regu-
lating.
If the BB indicator light turns on, the system has
switched the ESC off. In this case, you can switch
the ignition off and then on to switch the ESC on
again. The indicator light turns off when the sys-
tem is fully functional.
If the [J indicator light turns on, ESC was
switched off using the |2%] button > page 705.


Stabilization control (ESC/ABS): malfunction!
See owner&#39;s manual
If the B indicator lamp and the ES / Gass in-
dicator lamp turn on and the driver message ap-
pears, the ABS or electronic differential lock is
malfunctioning. This also causes the ESC to mal-
function. The brakes still function with their nor-
mal power, but ABS is not active.
Drive to an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility immediately to have the
malfunction corrected.
@ Tips
For additional information on ESC and ABS,
see > page 104.

function in the engine control. Drive slowly to an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Facility to have the engine checked.

mediately to an authorized Audi dealer or author-
ized Audi Service Facility to have the malfunction

data is continuously stored in your remote con-
trol key. Your Audi service advisor can read out
this data and tell you about the work your vehicle
needs. This applies also to vehicles with a con-
venience key”.
Personal convenience settings
If two people use one vehicle, it is recommended
that each person always uses “their own” master
key. When the ignition is turned off or when the
vehicle is locked, personal convenience settings
for the following systems are stored and as-
signed to the remote master key.

PANIC
PANIC
If you unlock the vehicle but then do not open
any of the doors, the luggage compartment lid,
or the hood within a short period time, the vehi-
cle will lock again automatically. This feature pre-
vents the vehicle from being accidentally left un-
locked for a long period of time.
The settings in the Infotainment system deter-
mine if the entire vehicle or only the driver&#39;s door
is unlocked when unlocking the vehicle
> page 23.

Z\ WARNING
No one, especially children, should stay in the
vehicle when it is locked from the outside, be-
cause the windows can no longer be opened
from the inside > page 24. Locked doors
make it more difficult for emergency workers
to get into the vehicle, which puts lives at risk.
@ Tips
— Only use the remote control key when you
are within view of the vehicle.

— The selector lever must be in the P position
on vehicles with a convenience key*; other-
wise the vehicle will not lock.
— Do not use the vehicle key to lock and un-
lock when you are inside the vehicle. Other-
wise, you could trigger the anti-theft
alarm. If this happens, press the fj unlock
button.
— Only use the panic function in an emergen-
cy.
