 .
 The A/C compressor is shut off for approx. 12 sec. by -J192- when accelerating from a stop and from low speed. 
If the gas pedal is released sooner, the time is reduced to a minimum of 3 sec. At wide open throttle, the A/C 
compressor is switched off by the automatic transmission (kick-down switch). 
  
   2 = Rear window heating - Signal (0 = off; 1 = on)  
Notes: 
 The rear window heating signal is only displayed on vehicles without A/C.
 On vehicles with A/C "0" is always displayed.

 Display group 029 (Diagnosis status)  
Notes:  
OBD II regulations require a display ("Readiness Code") that indicates readiness for inspection (annual exhaust emissions 
test). The readiness code display (display field 1) shows that every component and/or system that affects the exhaust, which 
can lead to switching on the MIL, has been operated at least once with positive result. 
The readiness code is reset and/or erased: 
 
Every time the DTC memory is erased (both with address word 01 function 05 and with address 33 mode 4).
 When the battery is disconnected.
 When the engine control module is disconnected (e.g. connecting test box VAG 1598/19, replacing ECM, etc.).
To generate the readiness code, take a "mixed city and highway" drive (short test). A "mixed city and highway" drive is 
understood to be approx. 1-1/2 to 5 minutes at 80-100 km/h (50-63 mph) with manual transmission in 4th or 5th gear, or 
automatic transmission selector lever in "D" position, preferably in 4th gear. 
The "Trip Status" display (display field 2) shows which components and/or systems have been checked since the start of the 
trip. After successful diagnosis, the current display value is set to "1" whether the diagnosis was recognized as OK or not OK. 
The trip-status display is reset to "0" at each start since the components and/or systems are checked at each new start. A 
"trip" is understood to be a drive of approx. 1-1/2 to 5 minutes at 80-100 km/h (50-63 mph) with manual transmission in 4th or 
5th gear, or automatic transmission selector lever in "D" position, preferably in 4th gear, with preceding cold start. 
The readiness code display (display field 1) shows whether the components and/or systems checked in display field 2 were 
recognized as OK or not OK by the engine control module.  
 If the diagnosis is recognized as OK, the current display value is set to "0."

 If the diagnosis is recognized as not OK, the current display value is not set to "0", it stays at "1." 
 If every component and/or system has operated at least once with positive results, all display values of the readiness code 
are set to "0." 
 If, during another diagnosis, a component and/or system is recognized as not OK, the readiness code is not reset to "1."
