temperature display to determine if a
road surface is icy or not . Keep in mind
that road surfaces , espec ially br idges
and overpasses, could be ice covered and
slippery even at an outside temperature
above 41 °F (+S °C).

road surfaces increases.
¢j) Tips
If the vehicle is stationary, or if you are
driving at a very low speed, the tempera
ture shown in the display might be slightly
higher than the actual outside tempera
ture. This i.s caused by the heat being radi
ated from the engine .

On-Board Diagnostic
system (OBD)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ¢4' i n
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
i ng, 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 cond ition corrected.
Contact your authorized Audi dealer.
If the light il luminates, the electronic speed
