Coolant temperature
display
The coolant temperature display @ > page 72
only functions when the ignition is switched on.
To reduce the risk of engine damage, please ob-
serve 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 [ij indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster display turns on, the coolant tem-
perature is too high * page 246.
— Auxiliary headlights and other accessories in
front of the air intake impair the cooling ef-
fect of the coolant. This increases the risk of
the engine overheating during high outside
temperatures and heavy engine load.
14
~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.
Tachometer
The tachometer @) > page 12 displays the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (RPM). The be-
ginning of the red zone in the tachometer indi-
cates the maximum permissible engine speed for
all gears once the engine has been broken in. Be-
fore reaching the red zone, you should shift into
the next higher gear, select the "D" or "S" selec-
tor lever position, or remove your foot from the
accelerator pedal.
Engine speed limitation
If the [JJ indicator light turns on, the engine will
be automatically limited to the RPM displayed in
the instrument cluster. This will protect the en-
gine components, for example during a cold start
or from overheating.
The engine speed limitation is deactivated if you
release the accelerator pedal while the engine is
at normal operating temperature.
If the engine speed limitation was activated by an
engine control malfunction, the 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 authorized Audi Service Facility im-
mediately to have the malfunction corrected.
The needle in the tachometer may only be in
the red area of the gauge for a short period of
time before there is a risk of damaging the
engine. The location where the red zone be-
gins varies depending on the engine.
Odometer
The trip odometer and odometer are displayed in
the status bar ©) © page 12. >

4K80127218K
Instrument cluster
The trip odometer shows the distance driven
since it was last reset. It can be used to measure
short distances. The odometer shows the total
distance that the vehicle has been driven.
Resetting the trip odometer
» Select on the instrument cluster: vehicle func-
tions tab > (SJ button > Reset mi.
Distances are displayed in mi (miles) or km
(kilometers).
Outside temperature
display
The outside temperature is displayed in the sta-
tus bar @) > page 12.
If your vehicle is stationary or if you are driving at
very low speeds, the temperature displayed in
the instrument cluster may be slightly higher
than the actual temperature outside due to heat
radiating from the motor.
At temperatures below 41 °F (+5 °C), a snowflake
symbol appears in front of the temperature dis-
play
>
A.
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.
Engine oil temperature
indicator
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the engine
oil temperature 88 may be indicated by a bar in
the instrument cluster.
» Open the vehicle functions tab and switch to
the enhanced view page 73.
When engine oil temperatures are low, the dis-
play --- °F (--- °C) appears in the instrument clus-
ter. The engine has reached its operating temper-
ature when the engine oil temperature is be-
tween 176 °F (80 °C) and 248 °F (120 °C) under
normal driving conditions. The engine oil temper-
ature may be higher if there is heavy engine load
and high temperatures outside. This is not a
cause for concern as long as the [ij or Bijindica-
tor lights do not turn on.
Boost indicator
Applies to: vehicles with boost indicator
Depending on vehicle equipment, the current en-
gine load (meaning the current boost pressure)
may be indicated by a bar in the instrument clus-
ter.
» Open the vehicle functions tab and switch to
the enhanced view © page 13.
Shift light indicator
Applies to: RS models
The shift light indicator informs the driver when
the RPM limit is reached.
» Select the RS Performance or RS Runway lay-
out if necessary > page 13.
The shift light indicator is displayed with green,
yellow and red ranges in the upper areas of the
tachometer. The shift light indicator will blink red
when approaching the engine speed limit. Shift
to the next highest gear at the right time.
Sport displays
Applies to: RS models
Various sport displays, such as a G meter or tire
pressure indicator, may be available depending
on vehicle equipment.
Opening sport displays in the instrument
cluster
» Select in the instrument cluster: Vehicle func-
tions tab > J button > Sport displays.
> Turn the left thumbwheel on the multifunction
steering wheel until the desired sport display
appears in the instrument cluster.

G meter
The G meter displays the longitudinal and lateral
acceleration. The current values are displayed in
the instrument cluster while driving. The maxi-
mum values that are reached are stored and dis-
played when the vehicle is stationary. Only the
maximum values that are reached are displayed
in the MMI.
» To reset the stored values, press and hold the
left thumbwheel on the multifunction steering
wheel for one second.
Tire pressure
The tire pressure monitoring system displays the
current tire pressures and temperatures. Also see
© page 275, Tire pressure monitoring system.
Engine data
The engine data in the instrument cluster shows
which percentage of the maximum output or
maximum torque is currently being used.
Temperature
The temperature display in the MMI shows the
temperature of various fluids and vehicle compo-
nents, such as the engine oil or sport differential.

Short-term memory and long-term memory
The short-term memory collects driving informa-
tion from the time the ignition is switched on un-
til it is switched off. If you continue driving within
two hours after switching the ignition off, the
new values will be included when calculating the
current trip information.
Unlike the short-term memory, the long-term
memory is not erased automatically. You can se-
lect the time period for evaluating trip informa-
tion yourself.
Average consumption
The current consumption can be shown using a
bar graph. The average consumption stored in
the short-term memory is also displayed. Ifthe >

tion. The display shows up to three equipment
items. The equipment using the most power is
listed first. If more than three items using power
are switched on, the equipment that is currently
using the most power is displayed. A gauge also
shows the current total consumption of all other
equipment.
