- When switching the ignition on, the nee
dles in the instrument cluster swing up
ward briefly.
- The illumination for the instrument clus
ter lights up whenever you switch on the
i gnition with the
vehicle headlights off .
As the daylight fades, the instrument
cluster illumination likewise dims auto
matically a nd will go out completely
when the outside light is
very low. This
feature is meant to remind you to switch
on the headlights when outside light
conditions become poor.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
The engine coolant gauge c> fig. 3 CD only
works when the ignition is on. To prevent
damage to your engine, please note the fol
lowing important points:
Engine cold
If the needle is at or close to the bottom of
the gauge, the engine has not yet reached its
operating temperature. Avoid high engine
speeds, heavy engine loads, and heavy throt
tle app lications.
Normal temperature
When the engine has reached its operating
temperature, the needle will
move to the mid
dle of the gauge and remain there . If the en
gine is working hard at high outs ide tempera
tures, the needle may
move higher on the
gauge. This is not a cause for concern as long
as the . warning light in the instrument
cluster display does not illuminate. If the.
warning light in the instrument cluster dis
play flashes, this can mean one of two things:
either the coolant
temperature is too high, or
the coolant
level is too low c> page 18 Ill-

Instrument s and warning /indicator lights 11
/! WARNING
- Always observe the warning in
¢ page 205, Engine compartment, be
fore opening the hood and checking the
engine coolant level.
- Never open the engine hood if you see or
hear steam, or if you see engine coolant
dripping from the engine compartment.
You could burn yourself . Let the engine
cool off first so that you cannot hear or
see any steam or engine coolant .
(D Note
-Mounting additional lights or accessories
in front of the air inlets reduces the cool
i ng effect of the radiator . At h igh outside
temperatures or high engine load, the
engine could overheat.
- The front spo iler has been designed to
properly distribute the cooling air when
the veh icle is moving. If the spoiler is
damaged, this could reduce the cooling
effect and the engine could then over
heat. Ask your authorized Audi dealer for
assistance.
Tachometer (engine rev counter)
The tachometer indicates the engin e RPM
(revolutions per minutes).
If engine RPM d rops be low 1,500 , you should
downshift to the next lower gear. The red area
at the end of the scale indicates maximum
permissible engine RPM after the break-in pe
riod . Before reaching this area, move these
lector lever to position D/S or ease your foot
off the accelerator pedal.
(D Note
The tachometer needle@¢ fig. 3 should
only briefly be in the red zone: you cou ld
damage your engine! The beginning of the
red zone varies depending on the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Upshifting early saves fuel and reduces en
gine noise.

You can perform different functions with this
button .
Fig. 4 SET but ton in th e in str ume nt cluster
The !SE T! button performs the following func
tions:
Switching on time, date , temperature
display, and odometer
The display appears for approximately 30 sec
onds when you press the
!SE Ti button ¢ fig. 4
with the ignition off.
Starting the Auto -Check sequence
The Auto-Check system constantly monitors
certain ind iv idual functions and components
of the vehicle when the ign ition is turned on
and when the vehicle is moving .
With the ignition turned on, you can start the " Auto-Check sequence" by pressing the
!S ET i
button. You can perform an Auto-Check se
quence when the vehicle is stationary and the
ignition is turned on or when the vehicle is
moving slower than 3 mph (5 km/h) .
In addition, the number of keys initial ised fo r
your vehicle is displayed.
L2 3/3 means that
three keys have been initialised. This feature
enables used car buyers to make sure they
have received all of the keys.
If you are given only two keys, for instance,
you should take the vehicle and the existing keys to an Audi dealer to have the missing key
disabled.
It is also important to notify your in -
surance company about the loss .

• Alternator fault: Battery is not being
charged
If the indicator light turns on and the mes
sage appears, there is a malfunction in the
generator or vehicle e lectrica l system.
D rive to you r autho rized Aud i dealer or quali
fied workshop immediately . Because the vehi
cle battery is discharging, turn
off a ll unnec
essary electrical equipment such as the radio .
Seek professional assistance if the battery
charge leve l is too low.
(•) Low battery: Battery will be charged
while driving

correct the ma lfunction.
'l:::7: Engine oil pre ssure
The red engine oil pressure warning symbol
requires immediate service or repair . Driving
with a low-oil-pressure indication is likely to
inflict severe damage to the engine .
• Turn off engine! Oil pressure too low
If the indicator light turns on and the mes
sage appears, the oil pressure is too low.
.,. Pull
off the road.
.,. Stop the vehicle.
.,. Tur n
off the engine .
.,. Check the engine oil level c:> page 217.
.,. If the engine oi l level is too low, add engine
oil

oil level in your engine at regular inter
vals, preferably each time you refuel,
and always before going on a long trip.
- The yellow oil level warning indication
l!I requires oil refill or workshop serv
ice without delay. Do not wait until the

Trip computer
Introduction
The trip computer gives you information on
current and average fuel mileage, average
speed, fuel range and driving time .
Fig. 9 Trip computer display: Average fuel mileag e
The fo llowing information is continuously
eva luated by the trip computer and can be dis
p layed sequentially in the instrument cluster
display:
Fuel range
The estimated cruising range in miles (km)
appears in the display. This tells you how far
your vehicle wi ll be able to travel on the cur
rent tank of fue l and with the same driving
style. The display changes in increments of 6
miles (10 km).
The cruising range is calcu lated based on the
fuel cons umption for the last 18 mi les
(30 km) . If you drive conservatively, the cruis
ing range will increase.
Average fuel mileage
The average fuel economy in MPG (l/100 km)
since you last cleared the memory appears in
this display. You can use this disp lay to adjust
your driving technique to achieve a desired
mileage .
Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in miles
per gallon (l/100 km) is shown in this display .
You can use this display to adj ust yo ur driving
technique to ach ieve a desired mileage.
Driver information display 25
Fuel consumption is recalcu lated at intervals
of 33 yards (30 meters). This display switches
to gallons/hour (liters/hour) when the veh icle
is not moving.
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) s ince you
last reset the memory appears in the display.
Elapsed time
The length of time that yo u have been driving
s ince you last reset the memory appears in
th is disp lay.
Distance
The distance that has been covered since the
last time the memory was cleared appears in
the d isplay .
(0 Tips
- Fuel consumptions (average and cur
rent), range and speed are displayed in
metric units on Canadian mode ls.
- All stored values will be lost if the vehi
cle battery is disconnected.
Memories
The trip computer is equipped with two fully
automatic memories as well as an efficiency
program* .
