tor lights and messages may be covered by other
displays. To show them again, select the second
tab for messages with the multifunction steering
wheel > page 72.
Some indicator lights in the display can display in

At temperatures below 41 °F (+5 °C), a snowflake
symbol appears in front of the temperature dis-
play > A.
ZA 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.


Fuel level
The display @ > page 10, fig. 3 only works when
the ignition is switched on. When the display has
reached the reserve mark, a red LED turns on and
the iy indicator light turns on > page 198.
For the tank capacity in your vehicle, refer to the
Technical Data > page 264.
@) Note
Never drive until the tank is completely emp-
ty. The irregular supply of fuel that results
from that can cause engine misfires. Uncom-
busted fuel will then enter the exhaust sys-
tem. This can cause overheating and damage
to the catalytic converter.

*\ Engine stop while driving
If the S indicator light turns on, there may bea
malfunction in the engine or fuel supply.
More force is needed to steer and brake the mov-
ing vehicle when the engine is stopped. If the ve-
hicle is rolling, try to bring it to a stop off to the
side from moving traffic. See an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility for as-
sistance.

If the engine stops while driving, you will need
to use more force to brake the vehicle. This in-
creases the risk of an accident. There will still
be power steering if the ignition is switched
on while the vehicle is rolling and there is suf-
ficient battery charge. Otherwise, you must

use greater force when steering.

If the B indicator light blinks while driving, the
ESC or ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) is actively regu-
lating.
If the BB indicator light turns on, the system has
switched the ESC off. In this case, you can switch
the ignition off and then on to switch the ESC on
again. The indicator light turns off when the sys-
tem is fully functional.
If the [J indicator light turns on, ESC was
switched off using the |2%] button > page 705.


Stabilization control (ESC/ABS): malfunction!
See owner's manual
If the B indicator lamp and the ES / Gass in-
dicator lamp turn on and the driver message ap-
pears, the ABS or electronic differential lock is
malfunctioning. This also causes the ESC to mal-
function. The brakes still function with their nor-
mal power, but ABS is not active.
Drive to an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility immediately to have the
malfunction corrected.
@ Tips
For additional information on ESC and ABS,

— USA models: the daytime running lights are au-
tomatically switched on when the ignition is
switched on and the light switch is set to the O
or the AUTO position (only in daylight). The
Daytime running lights can be switched on and
off in the MMI > page 37 > A.

36
So - All-weather lights*. The headlights automat-
ically adjust so that there will be less glare, for
example when the road surface is wet.
Q# - Rear fog lights*
Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system*
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system so that there is less glare for on-
coming traffic if the vehicle load changes. The
headlight range also adjusts automatically when
braking and accelerating.
Light functions
The following light functions are available de-
pending on vehicle equipment and only function
when the light switch is in the AUTO position.
Static cornering light* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - the cornering light switches on automat-
ically when the steering wheel is turned at a cer-
tain angle at speeds up to approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) and when the turn signal is activated
at speeds up to approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h). The area to the side of the vehicle is
illuminated better when turning.
Highway light function* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - This function adapts the lighting for
highway driving based on vehicle speed.
Speed dependent light distribution* (vehicles
with LED headlights) - The speed dependent light
distribution adapts the light in towns and on
highways or expressways. Intersections can also
be illuminated on vehicles with a navigation sys-
tem*.
ZA WARNING
— Automatic headlights* are only intended to
assist the driver. The driver is still responsi-
ble for controlling the headlights and may
need to switch them on and off manually
depending on light and visibility conditions.
For example, fog cannot be detected by the
light sensors. So always switch on the low
beams under these weather conditions and
when driving in the dark ZO. >
