A WARNING
- USA models: If the 1111 warning l ight
and
the m warning light come on to
gether, the rear wheels could lock up
first under hard braking . Rear wheel lock
up can cause loss of vehicle control and
an acc ident. Have your vehicle repaired
immediately by your authorized Audi
dealer or a qualified workshop . Dr ive
slowly and avoid sudden, hard brake ap·
plicat ions.
- Canada models: If the brake warn ing
light . and the ABS warning light
II]
come on together, the rear wheels could
.
lock up first under hard braking . Rear
wheel lock-up can cause loss of vehicle
control and an accident . Have your vehi
cle repaired immed iately by your author·
ized Audi dealer or a qualified workshop .
Drive s low ly and avoid sudden, hard
brake applications.
- If the brake warning/ind icator light does
not go ou t after a few seconds and the
pa rking brake released, or lights up wh ile
you are driv ing, the fluid level in the
brake fluid reservoir is too low. If yo u be
lieve that it is safe to do so, proceed im
mediately at low speed to the nearest
author ized Audi dealer or qualif ied repair
facility and have the brake system in·
spected.
- Always keep in mind that after severa l
brake applications, you will need greater
pressure on the brake pedal to stop your
veh icle. Do not rely on strained brakes to
respond with max imum stopping power
in critical s ituations. You must allow fo r
increased braking dis tances. The extra
distance used up by fading brakes could
lead to an accident.

Outside temperature display
Fig. 11 Display : outside te mperature
At temperatures below 41 °F (+S °C), a snow
flake symbol appears in front of the tempera ture display . It is intended to remind the driv
er to pay spec ial attent ion to
ic e on the roa d.
If your vehicle is stat ionary or if you are driv
ing at very low speeds, the temperature dis
played may be slightly higher than the actual
temperature outside due to the heat radiating
from the eng ine .
The unit of measurement for the temperature
can be set in either °For in °Con the MM I* or
on the radio control un it . The outside temper
ature display automatically shows the unit of
measurement that has been set. For addition
a l information, see the MMI* or the radio in
struction manua l.
_& WARNING
- Never use the outside temperature d is
play to determine if a road surface is icy
or not. Keep in mind that road surfaces,
especially bridges and overpasses, could
be ice covered and slippery even at an
outside temperature above 41 °F (+S
0 ().
-Always remember, even if the "snow
flake" symbol ( ice warn ing) does not ap
pear i n the display, blac k ice could be on
the road.

On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) flllifi in
the instrument clus ter
9 page 13, fig. 8 is
part of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) sys
tem .
The warning/indicator light illuminates whe n
the ign ition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the idle has stabilized. T
his 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 dr iv
ing, a malfunction may exist in the engine 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 .
If the light illum ina tes, the electronic speed
limiter may also be mal functioning. For more
information ¢

Your veh icle may be factory equipped with
tires that are rated for a maximum speed of
130 mph (210 km/h) . Th is is less than the
maximum speed of you r vehicle. To reduce the
ri sk of s udden tire failure and loss of control if
t he veh icle is ope rated at excessive speeds,
your vehicle also has an electronic speed lim it
er . The electronic speed limiter prevents yo ur
ve hicle from going faster than the tire speed
rating. For more informat ion

A WARNING
Always observe the posted speed limits
and ad just you r speed to suit p revailing
road, t raff ic and weather conditions. Never
drive your vehicle faster than the maxi
mum speed rating of the tires insta lled.
Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep
your driving speed below a set speed limit.
The speed warning system wa rns if the driver
exceeds a prev iously stored maxim um speed.
A warning tone will sound as soon as the vehi-
Dri ver information di spla y 2 7
cle speed exceeds the set speed by about
3 mph (3 km/h). At the same time, a warning
symbol appears in the display. The symbo l's
appearance might be different in some mod
els.
The speed warning system has two warning
thresholds that funct ion independent ly of
each other and that have somewhat different purposes:
Speed warning 1
You can use speed warning 1 to set the maxi
mum speed while you are driving. This setting
will remain in effect until yo u turn off the ign i
tion, assuming that you have not changed or reset the setting.
The . (USA mode ls)/ . (Canada models)
speed warning symbo l in the warning 1 dis
play appears when you exceed the maximum
speed . It goes out when the speed falls be low
the stored maximum speed .
The speed warning symbol will also go o ut if
the speed exceeds the stored maximum speed
by more than about 2S mph (40 km/h) for at
least 10 seconds . The stored max imum speed
is deleted.
Speed w arning 2
Storing warning 2 is recommended if yo u al
ways want to be reminded of a certain speed,
for example whe n you are trave ling in a coun
try that has a genera l maximum speed limit,
o r i f you do not want to exceed a specified
speed for wi nte r tir es.
The . (USA models) . (Canada models)
speed warning 2 symbol appears in the dis
play when yo u exceed the sto red speed limit.
Unlik e warning 1, it will not go out unt il the
vehicle speed drops below the s to red speed
