Doors, bonnet and rear lid open
When the vehicle is unlocked and while driv-
ing, the instrument panel display shows if any
of the doors, the bonnet or rear lid are
opened and, in some cases, it is also indica-
ted by an audible warning. The display may
vary according to the type of instrument
panel fitted.
Selector lever positions (DSG® dual clutch
gearbox)
The current position of the selector lever is
shown on the side of the lever and on the in-
strument panel display. When the lever is in
the D/S position or in the Tiptronic position,
in some cases, the gear engaged in each
case is shown on the instrument panel dis-
play .
Outside temperature indicator
If the outside temperature is lower than ap-
proximately +4 °C (+39 °F), the “ice crystal
symbol” on the outside temperature dis-
play also lights up. This symbol remains lit
until the outside temperature exceeds +6 °C
(+43 °F)

.
When the v
ehicle is st
ationary, when the
auxiliary heater is switched on or when driv-
ing at very low speeds, the outside tempera-
ture indicated may be higher than the actual
temperature due to the heat produced by
the engine.
The margin of measurement ranges from
-45 °C (-49 °F) to +76 °C (+169 °F).
Gear-change recommendation
While driving, the instrument panel of cer-
tain vehicles may indicate a gear recommen-
dation for saving fuel

Combined operating range display
(hy-
brid vehicles)
The value shown is calculated and updated
according to the driving style. Therefore, the
range can vary even when the fuel tank is full
and the high-voltage battery is fully charged.
Range can be increased by reducing or
switching off comfort consumers, e.g. air
conditioning or seat heating.
