Instruments and warning/indicator lights 17
o Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (M IL) is part
of the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) system.
The symbol
f• lights up when the ignition is
turned on and will turn off after the engine
has started and has sett led at a constant idle
speed. Th is ind icates that the MIL is working
properly.
The warning light illuminates when there is a
malfunction in the engine electronic system .
Contact your author ized Audi dealer and have
the ma lfunction corrected.
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate (only vehiÂ
cles with gasoline engine)
c:> page 253.
For more informat ion c:> page 2 7.
0 Adaptive Air Suspension
Applies to vehicles: with Adaptive Air Suspension
This II warning/indicator light has the folÂ
l owing functions:
- It illuminates for a few seconds after the igÂ
nition is turned on as function check and
then goes out .
- If the warning/ind icator light illuminates or
blinks continuously, there is a system fau lt
in the Adaptive A ir Suspension . A system
fault can result in limited ride comfort and
low ground clearance . Drive safely to the
nearest authorized Aud i dealer or qualified
workshop, and have the fault corrected .
- If the warning/ind icator light flashes, you
should not drive the vehicle. The flash ing
warning/ind icator light po ints to an extreme
High level. A very
pronounced lifting of the
vehicle (extreme High level) can resu lt, fo r
example, when a heavy load is removed
from the vehicle. As soon as the leve l has reÂ
turned to normal, the warning/indicator
light stops flashing, and you can drive away.
- If the warning/ind icator light flashes in conÂ
junction with the
II warning/indicator
light, you sho uld not drive off immediately
i n order to prevent damage to the underÂ
body. The two warning/ind icator lights flashing together points to an extreme Low
level. A very
pronounced lowering of the veÂ
hicle (extreme Low leve l) can result, for exÂ
ample, from a heavy load. As soon as the
level has retu rned to normal, the warning/
ind icator lights stop flashing, and you can
drive away.
(D Note
If the warning/indicator light flashes in
conjunction with the
II warni ng/indicaÂ
tor light, you should not dr ive the veh icle
because low-lying vehicle parts can botÂ
tom out as you drive over uneven ground
and be damaged as a result.

controls.
- If the warning/indicator light flashes in conÂ
junction with the
II warning/indicator
light, you should not drive the vehicle immeÂ
diately in order to prevent damage to the
underbody. The two warn ing/ indicator
lights flashing together points to an exÂ
treme Low level. A very
pronounced lowerÂ
ing
of the vehicle (extreme Low level) can reÂ
sult, for example, from a heavy load. As
soon as the level has returned to normal,
the warning/indicator lights stop flashing,
and you can drive away.
