Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The new Audi A6 – the most progressive vehicle
takes the lead.
The new Audi A6 consistently adopts the highly
networked electronic architecture, which is already
used in the Audi A8. Overall, new technologies allow
the A6 to match up with its "model" vehicle, the Audi
A8. Features, which were previously reserved for
luxury vehicles, are now also available in the top-
class segment.
In combination with these diverse capabilities,
the underlying technology has, of course,
been enhanced considerably.
The use of the most modern network technologies,
such as CAN, LIN, MOST and Bluetooth, and the
related distributed vehicle functions signals the
arrival of a new generation of vehicle electrics in
this class.
Some of these are safety-related features, such as
the combined rain/light sensor or the pivoting
cornering headlight. Comfort features of the top
class, such as the MMI operating system or
sophisticated functionalities for the mobile
baseplate, which is available ex-works, are part and
parcel of these new saloons.
The new Audi A6 has everything that is needed to
become the Number One model in the top-class
range.
It combines many different, attractive components
to form one unit. Design and performance go
hand-in-hand. The new Audi A6 will take over
as the most progressive vehicle.

The basic design of the control unit for power
management is the same as the control unit used in
the Audi A8 ‘03.
It is installed in the boot well, next to the battery.
This control unit has been adapted for use in the
Audi A6 ’05 in that it now has revised software,
which shows the battery condition rather than the
battery charge level in the MMI display.
Furthermore, the diagnosis tester can be used to
read out history data, i.e. data relating to the
condition of the on-board power supply in the past.
Convenience electrics
Reference
The basic functions of the control unit for power
management J644 are described in the SSP 287.
Battery condition
The battery condition indicates how efficient the
battery is. The efficiency is determined from the
battery charge level and the ability to start.
Advantages of the battery condition:
– The cut-off stages can be allocated directly to the
battery condition.
– The messages in the central display of dash
panel insert J285 always appear for the same
battery condition reading.
– A 100 % display indicates that no cut-off stage
will be set the next time the engine is switched
off.
