Tachometer
![](https://www.audimanual.ru/img/a6/2407.jpg)
The red range of the scale corresponds to the range of maximum revolutions that are allowed for a short time for a run-in and warm engine.
It is recommended that already on the approach of the arrow to this sector of the scale, switch to a higher gear or release the gas.
During the break-in period, avoid high-speed modes.
Digital clock with date display
The watch is on the tachometer and can work as a radio-controlled quartz watch or as a conventional quartz watch. The clock is set using the button. In mode «radio controlled quartz clock» the symbol for receiving radio information appears on the display panel (divergent radio tower). In this mode, you cannot manually set the time and date. If there is no corresponding radio signal for three days, the mode will automatically turn on «quartz watch». In this case, the symbol for receiving radio information disappears.
Time setting
To set the current hour, pull the button until the hour digit starts flashing. The hour indication is changed by turning the button left/right.
To set the minutes, pull the button until the minutes display starts flashing. The minute display is changed by turning the button left/right.
Date setting
Pull the button several times until the day, month, year numbers start flashing. The day, month or year indication is changed by turning the button left/right.
The time/date setting process is complete when the time/date display digits stop flashing after the button is released.
Engine oil temperature gauge
Until the oil has warmed up, you should not try to realize the full power of the engine. If the instrument needle, as an exception, enters the upper range of the scale, reduce engine speed. The needle should then return to its normal operating range. If the needle remains in the high temperature range, stop, stop the engine and check the oil level. If the level is normal and the oil pressure warning light does not flash after starting the engine, you can avoid high engine speeds and drive to the nearest workshop.
Coolant temperature
The pointer works when the ignition is on.
Avoid increased speed and engine loads while the arrow is on the left side of the scale!
Working temperature
In normal driving mode and coolant temperature, the needle should fluctuate within the middle part of the scale.
With a significant load on the engine and a high outside temperature, the arrow may be in the right side of the scale. This should not be a cause for alarm until the cooling system warning light starts flashing.
If the coolant temperature/level warning light flashes while driving, the coolant level is low or too hot.
Stop, turn off the engine and determine the cause of the problem.
Fuel gauge
The pointer works when the ignition is on.
The capacity of the fuel tank is 70 liters.
If the arrow has reached the reserve scale, this means that 9 liters of fuel are left in the tank.
The gas station symbol on the dashboard lights up to remind you to fill up. Never run out of fuel until the tank is completely empty.
Speedometer
![](https://www.audimanual.ru/img/a6/2408.jpg)
The speedometer is equipped with a digital counter of total and daily mileage, as well as a display that shows information about the timing of vehicle maintenance.
The upper counter records the total mileage and the lower counter records the mileage since the reset.
The mileage counting accuracy is 100 m.
To reset the daily mileage and reset the counter, press the reset button.
Maintenance Timing Information
![](https://www.audimanual.ru/img/a6/2409.jpg)
After switching on the ignition and briefly pressing button 1, the display on the instrument panel displays a message about the number of kilometers until the next maintenance.
When the next maintenance period is due, the display shows the message after starting the engine «SERVICE IN 2000 KM» or «SERVICE!» After about 5 seconds, the display switches to normal display mode.
After a maintenance or oil change in the workshop, new information about the next maintenance intervals is entered. The sequence of actions in this case is as follows:
- 1. Turn off the ignition.
- 2. Press button 2 and, keeping it pressed, turn on the ignition. The display will show the message «SERVICE!».
- 3. Press button 1 until the message disappears «SERVICE!».
When the battery is disconnected, service interval information is retained.
If the self-diagnosis system detects malfunctions, the message appears on the display instead of the mileage reading «dEF». In this case, you should contact the workshop.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter displays the voltage in the on-board network.
The normal voltage value is between 12-16 V. If the voltage drops below 12 V while the engine is running, check the alternator and battery. During engine start, the voltage may drop to 8 V.
Self-diagnosis system
When the ignition is on, as well as while driving, the self-diagnosis system continuously monitors the functioning and technical condition of certain vehicle systems.
The system notifies the driver about the occurrence of malfunctions and the need to perform maintenance and repair work with an audible signal, accompanied by the lighting of warning lights on the instrument panel. The priority of the detected fault is signaled by the color of the signal lights, which can be red (1st priority) or yellow. In addition, text messages can be shown on the display for the driver. The self-diagnosis system also includes a driver alert when the specified speed limit is exceeded.
If the car is equipped with radio equipment at the factory, then information about its functioning can be displayed on the display.
Red warning signals on the display (1st priority):
- brake system malfunction
- coolant level drop or engine overheating
- engine oil pressure drop
The lighting of the signal light with a flashing red symbol is accompanied by a three-time acoustic signal. In this case, you should immediately stop, turn off the engine, check the system in which the malfunction is detected, and eliminate it, possibly by contacting a workshop or calling a tow truck.
If several defects with the first degree of priority are detected at once, the corresponding symbols light up on the display in sequence with an indication duration of 2 seconds. The flashing of the symbols continues until the malfunction is eliminated.
yellow symbols (2nd priority):
- only reserve stock left in the fuel tank
- brake pad wear
- the need to check the engine oil level
- malfunction of the engine oil level sensor
- headlight range adjustment fault
The appearance of the yellow symbol on the display is accompanied by a single beep. If several defects are detected at once, the corresponding symbols light up on the display in sequence with an indication duration of 2 seconds. The flashing of the symbols continues until the malfunction is eliminated.
