On-Board Diagnostics
F ig. 4 Loc ation of D ata Link Connector (OLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Eac h monitored
component in your engine system has been as­
signed a code . In case of a ma lfunction, the com­
ponent w ill be identified and the fa ult stored as a
code in the control module memory.
The MIL light may also ill uminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recovery system .
18
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only b e display ed using special diag­
nostic equipment (gener ic scan tool for OBD) .
In order to connect the special d iagnost ic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Link Connector
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood
release
~ fig. 4.
Your a utho rized Aud i dea ler or a qua lified service
station can interpret the code and perform the
necessary repair.
A WARNING
Do not use t he diagnostic connector for per­
sonal use. Incorrect usage can cause malfunc­
tions, which can increase the risk of a co lli­
sion!

Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in rev­
olutions 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
and when it is warm. Before reaching the red
zone, you should shift into the next higher gear,
choose the Dor S selector lever position, or re­
move your foot from the accelerator pedal.
@ Note
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short per iod of
time or there is a risk of damaging the engine .
The location where the red zone begins varies
depending on the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early helps you to save fuel and re­
duce operating noise.

Fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption can be shown us­

in the short-term memory is also displayed. If
the bar is green, your vehicle is saving fuel

Opening and closing
& WARNING
No one, especially children, should stay in the
vehicle when it is locked from the outside, be ­
cause the w indows can no longer be opened
from the inside¢
page 30. Locked doors
make it more difficu lt for eme rgency workers
to get into the vehicle, which puts lives at
risk.
@ Tips
- Only use the remote control key when you
a re within view of the vehicle.
- Do not use the remote control when you are
in side the vehicle. Otherwise, you could un­
in tent ionally lock the vehicle. If you then
tried to start the engine or open a door, the
alarm would be triggered. If this happens,
press the un lock button@.
- The selector lever must be in the P position
on vehicles with a convenience key*. Other­
wise the vehicle will not be ab le to lock .
- Only use the panic function in an emergen ­
