Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Ind icator Lamp (MIL)
ISi
in
the instrument cluster is part of the On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD II) system.
The warning/indicator
light ill umina t es when
the ignition is switched on and goes out after
the engine starts and the idle has stabi lized.
This indicates that the MIL is work ing proper-
ly.
If the light does not go out
after t he engine
is started, or illuminates while you are driv-
ing, a malf unction may exist in the engine sys-
tem.
If
the light illumi nates, the catalytic con-
verter could be damaged .
Contin ue driving
with reduced power
(avoid-
ing susta ined high speeds and/or rapid accel-
erations) and have the cond ition corrected .
Contact your authorized Audi dealer.
If the light illuminates, the electronic speed
li miter may also be malfunct ion ing. For more
information ¢ page 2 8, Electronic speed
limiter.
An improperly closed fuel filler cap may also
cause the MIL light to illuminate
