Warm and cold Climate control system
Description
The climate control system circulates, warms or
cools, and removes humid ity from the air in the
veh icle inter ior .
It is the most effective when the
windows and panorama glass roof* or power top*
are closed. If there is a build-up of heat inside
the vehicle, ventilation can help to speed up the
cooling process.
Pollutant filter
The pollutant filter removes pollutants such as
dust and pollen from the a ir.
Key recognition
Various settings are stored and assigned to the
remote control key be ing used .
These settings are different when the power top* is open or closed .
Presetting
Several functions can be preset in the Infotain­
ment system.

- For safer driving, keep all windows free of
ice, snow and fog.
- Become familiar with the correct use and
function of the climate control system as
quickly as possible, especially with the de­
frosting and defogging functions.
- When the temperature is below freezing, only use the windshield washer system after
70
the windshield has been warmed by the cli­
mate control system. The washer fluid could

tem is damaged, switch the system off to
prevent further damage and have it checked
by an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility.

- In vehicl es w ith the efficiency prog ram*,
you can find other consumption information
and more economy tips <=? page 19.
(D Tips
- T o prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to prevent the win­
dows from fogging over, the a ir intake in
front of the windshie ld must be free of ice,
snow or leaves.
- Condensation from the cooling system* can
drip and form a pudd le of water under the
vehicle. This is norma l and does not mean
there is a leak.
- The energy management system may tem­
porarily switch off certain functions, such as
the seat heating* or rear window defogger.
These systems are available again as soon
as the energy supply has been restored.
