Default Quick question about odometer display

Hey there: this is my first Audi. Brand new here with a very newbie question...

On a 2010 A4 premium plus, what is the number that shows up to the right of the cars total mileage number on the main display? Can't figure it out. So for example the display will say something like 10690 mi 1780 . I know the first number is the odometer reading. But what's that 2nd number? Thought maybe it was a trip computer but I have scrolled through trip computer 1 and 2 and reset both, and it didn't affect this. I attached a pic too. Thanks!

It's a trip meter, seperate from "trip computer 1&2". You reset it with the 00 button next to the display.

OH ok. Thanks that's great, but I don't really see why there would need to be 3 trip computers.

While I'm on the subject of random display questions, do you happen to know what the GALA setting is that defaults at "3" in the sound settings of the radio display? Thanks again.

GALA with the different strength settings controls the speed dependent volume adjustment.
If you havent noticed, the Trip Computer 1 resets itself when car is OFF for 2 hours. Very good for readout after a trip. Computer 2 is user controlled. Good for checking fuel consumption etc. The trip meter just measures a trip distance, with an easy reset function. (The base level cars don't have the "Trip Computers").
