A WARNING
Do not assume the roads are free of ice based
on the outside temperature display . Be aware
that there may be ice on roads even when the outside temperature is around 41 °F (+5 °C)
and that ice can increase the risk of accidents.
@ Tips
- Depending on vehicle equipment, the in ­
strument illumination (needles and gauges) may turn on when the lights are off and the
ignition is switched on . The illumination for
the gauges reduces automatically and even­
tually turns off as brightness outside in­
creases. This function reminds the driver to
turn the low beams on at the appropriate
time .
- You can select the units used for tempera­
ture, speed and other measurements in the
Infotainment system
c::> page 248.
- If your vehicle is stationary or if you are driv­
ing at very low speeds, the temperature dis­
played may be slightly higher than the ac­
tual temperature outside due to the heat ra­
diating from the engine .
- At temperatures below 41 °F ( +5 °C), a
snowflake symbol appears in front of the
temperature display
c::> A .
Coolant temperature indicator
The coolant temperature
display @c::> page 10,
fig. 3 or c::> page 10, fig. 4 only functions when
the ignition is switched on. To prevent engine
damage, please observe the following notes
about the temperature ranges.
Cold range
If only the LEDs at the bottom of the gauge turn
on, the engine has not reached operating tem­
perature yet . Avoid high engine speeds, full ac­
celeration and heavy engine loads.
Normal range
The engine has reached its operating tempera­
ture once the LEDs up to the center of the gauge
turn on. If
the. indicator light in the instru-
Cockpit overview
ment cluster display turns on, the coolant tem­
perature is too high
c::> page 30.
(D Note
- Auxiliary headlights and other accessories in
front of the cooling-air intake impair the
cooling effect of the coolant. This increases
the risk of the engine overheating during
high outside temperatures and heavy en­
gine load.
- The front spoiler also helps to distribute cooling air correctly while driving. If the
spoiler is damaged, the cooling effect will
be impaired and the risk of the engine over ­
heating will increase . See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Fa­ cility for assistance .
@ Tips
Diesel engines: due to the high efficiency of
these engines, the engine may not always reach operating temperature in cold outside
temperatures . This is normal and not a cause
for concern.

On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 22 Location of Data Li nk Con nec tor (DLC )
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your em ission control system. Each monitored
component in your eng ine system has been as­
signed a code. In case of a ma lfunction, the com­
ponent will be identified and the fault stored as a
code in the control module memory.
The MI L light may also illuminate if there is a
leak in the on -board fuel vapor recovery system.
If the light illuminates after a refueling, stop the
vehicle and make sure the fuel filler cap is prop­ erly closed (only vehicles with gasoline engine)
¢ page 317 .
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only be displayed using special diag­ nostic equipment (generic scan tool for OBD) .
In order to connect the specia l diagnostic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Link Connector
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood

Description
You can lock and unlock the veh icle centrally . You
have the following options:
-Remote control key¢ page 40,
-Sensors in the door handles* ¢ page 40,
-Lock cylinder on the driver's door c::> page 42,
or
-Interior central locking switch c::> page 41.
Turn signals
The turn s ignals flash twice when you unlock the
veh icle and flash once when you lock the veh icle.
If they do not flash, then one of the doors, the
rear lid or the hood is not closed.
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock funct ion locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has
ex­
ceeded approximately 9 mph (15 km/h).
The vehicle can be unlocked if the opening func­
tion in the central locking system sw itch is used
or one of the door handles is pulled.
In the event of a crash with airbag deployment,
the doors will a lso automat ically unlock to allow
access to the vehicle.
Selective door unlocking
The doors and luggage compartment lid will lock
when they close . You can set in the Infotainment
system whether
only the driver's door or the en­
tire vehicle should be unlocked when unlocking
c::> page 41.
Unintentionally locking yourself out
Only lock your vehicle when all of the doors and
the luggage compartment lid are closed and the remote control key is not in the vehicle . This
helps to prevent you from locking yourse lf out
accidentally .
The follow ing cond it ions prevent you from lock­
ing your remote control key in the vehicle:
Opening and closing
-If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked by pressing the
fi'.) button on the re­
mote contro l key or by touching the locking
sensor* on a door.
-If the most recently used convenience key* is
detected in the luggage compartment, the lug­
gage compartment lid automatically unlocks
again after closing it.
-If the convenience key* that was last used is de­
tected inside the vehicle, then the vehicle will
not be able to lock from the outside .
_& WARNING
---
-When you lock your vehicle from outs ide,
nobody- espec ially children
-should rema in
inside the vehicle. Remember, when you
loc k the vehicle from the outside the win­
dows cannot be opened from the inside .
- When you leave the vehicle, always take the
ignit ion key with yo u. This will prevent pas­
sengers (children, for examp le) from acci­
dentally being locked in the vehicle should
they accidentally press the power locking
switch in the doors.
- Do not leave children inside the vehicle
un­
supervised. In an emergency it would be im­
possible to open the doors from the outside
without the key.
(D Tips
-Do not leave valuables unattended in the ve­
hicle. A locked vehicle is not a safe!
-The LED in the driver's door rail blinks when
you lock the vehicle. If the LED lights up for
approximately 30 seconds after locking,
there is a malfunction in the central locking
system. Have the problem corrected by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
