If the II indicator light turns on if there is a mal­
function in
the engine control.
Drive slowly

to have the engine
checked .
o System indicator light (MIL)
The system indicator light (MIL) is part of the On
Board Diagnostic system (OBD II). The ¢.j sym­
bol turns on when the ignition is switched on and
turns
off again once the engine is started and
running
at a steady idle speed. This indicates that
the MIL is functioning correctly.
The indicator
light turns on if there is a malfunc­
tion in the engine electronics. See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility
to
have the malfunction corrected.
For additional
information, refer to¢ page 17.
!?\Engine speed limitation
Applies to vehicles wit h en gi ne speed lim itation
(I! Maximum engine speed: XXXX rpm
The engine speed is automatically limited to the
speed displayed in the driver information system.
This protects
the engine from overheating.
The engine speed
limitation deactivates once the
engine is no longer in the critical temperature
range and you have released the accelerator ped­
al once.
If the engine speed limitation was activated by
an engine
control malfunction, the II indicator
light also turns on. Make sure the engine speed
does
not go above the speed displayed, for exam­
ple when downshifting. Drive
to an authorized
Audi dealer or authori z

speed
of about 2 mph (3 km/h) or higher ini­
tiates
the emergency braking function. The vehi ­
cle
is braked at all four wheels by activating the
hydraulic brake system . The brake performance is
similar to heavy braking. c> &.
In order not to activate the emergency braking by
mistake,
an audib le warning tone (buzzer)
sounds when
the switch is pulled. As soon as the
switch is released, or the accelerator pedal is de ­
pressed, emergency braking stops .
A WARNING
Emergency braking should only be used in an
emergency, when the normal brake pedal has
fai led or the brake pedal is obstructed. During
emergency braking, your vehicle
will brake
simi lar
to heavy braking. ESC and the associ ­
ated components
(ABS, ASR, EDL) cannot
overcome
the laws of physics. In corners and
when road or weather condi
tions are bad, a
full brake application can cause the vehicle to
skid or the rear end to break away, which in­
creases the risk of an accident.

Intelligent Technology
Electronic stabilization
control (ESC)
· Description
The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) reinfor­
ces driver safety. It reduces the risk of slipping
and improves driving stability.
ESC detects criti­
cal situations such
as the vehicle oversteering
and understeering or the wheels are spinning.
The vehicle
is stabilized by applying the brakes or
reducing engine torque. Once the ESC is activat­
ed,
the indicator light DJ blinks in the instru­
ment cluster.
The following systems are integrated in the ESC:
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking when brak­
ing. The vehicle
can still be steered even during
hard braking. Apply steady pressure
to the brake
pedal.
Do not pump the pedal. A pulsing in the
brake pedal indicates that the system is acting to
stabilize the vehicle .
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can decrease braking dis­
tance.
It increases braking power when the driver
presses
the brake pedal quickly in emergency sit­
uations .
You must press and hold the brake pedal
until the dangerous situation is over.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces engine power when the drive wheels
begin spinning and adapts
the force to the road
conditions. This makes
it easie r to start, acceler­
ate and drive up inclines.
Electron ic differential lock (EDL)
EDL applies the brakes to a wheel that starts
spinning and transfers
the drive power to the
other driving wheels. This function is not availa­
ble
at higher speeds.
In extreme cases, EDL automatically switches off
to keep the brake on the braked wheel from over­
heating . The vehicle
is still working correctly. EDL
Intelligent Technology
will switch on again automatically when condi­
tions have returned
to normal.
Steering recommendation
The ESC helps to stabilize the vehicle by changing
the steering torque.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control is used when driv­
ing on curves. The
front wheel on the inside of
the curve or both wheels on the inside of the
curve are braked selectively as needed. This al­
lows more preci
se driving in curves . The applica­
ble system may
not activate when driving in wet
or snowy condit ions.
Automatic post-collision braking system
The "Automatic post-collision braking system"
can help to reduce the risk of sliding and of other
collisions after an accident. If the airbag control
module detects a collision above a certain vehicle
speed,
the vehicle is braked by the ESC.
The vehicle does not brake automatically if:
-the driver presses the accelerator pedal, or
-the braking force generated by the pressed
brake pedal
is greater than the braking force
that would be initiated by the system, or
-the ESC, the brake system or the vehicle electri­
cal system are not functioning.
A WARNING ,..:-
-The ESC and its integrated systems cannot
overcome
the limits posed by natura l physi­
cal laws. This is especially important on slip­
pery o r wet roads. If the systems begin act ­
ing
to stabilize your vehicle, you should im­
mediately alter your speed to match the
road and traffic conditions. Do not let the
increased safety provided tempt you into
taking risks. This could increase your risk of
a collision.
- Please note
the risk of a collision increases
when driving fast, especially through curves
and on slippery
or wet roads, and when driv-
ing
too close to objects ahead. The ESC and .,..

its integrated systems cannot always pre­
vent collisions -there is still a risk of acci­
dents!
-Press the accelerator pedal carefully when
accelerating on even, slippery surfaces such
as ice and snow. The drive wheels can spin
even when these control systems are instal-
Switching on and off
led and this can affect driving stability and
increase the risk of a collision.
@ Tips
-ABS and ASR only function correctly when
all four wheels are equipped with identical
tires. Different tire sizes can lead to a reduc­
tion in engine power.
-You may hear noises when the systems de­
scribed are working.
ESC turns on automatically when you start the engine .

amount of stabilization control will differ de­

The following
examples are unusual situations
where it may make sense to switch sport mode
