Humidity sender G355
Heating/Air Conditioner
At low ambient temperatures, when the
windscreen is extremely cold, the top third is
particularly susceptible to fogging.
To cover this area, the humidity sender G355
is fitted in front of the base of the rear view
mirror.
The sender is designed to detect the
following:
– Humidity level
– Sender ambient temperature and
– Windscreen temperature
All three functions are combined in the
sender housing.
The humidity sender is intended for all
equipment versions.The sender data enable the air conditioning
system to detect potential misting of the
windscreen in good time.
Before water vapour from the air in the
passenger compartment can form on the
windows, the output of the air conditioner
compressor and the blower speed are
automatically increased and the defrost flap
is opened further. Dry air is then routed from
the open defrost vents to the windscreen and
side windows via the evaporator and heat
exchangers.
Measurement of humidity level and
corresponding temperature
Physical principles
Humidity measurement involves determining
the water vapour content of the passenger
compartment air. The capacity of air to
absorb water vapour is governed by the air
temperature. It is thus necessary to
determine not only the humidity level but also
the corresponding air temperature in the
measurement area.The warmer the air, the more water vapour it
can absorb. Water starts to condense if this
water-vapour enriched air cools down again.
This results in fine droplets forming on the
windscreen.
SSP282_104

Operation
Measurement is performed by way of a
special capacitor which can absorb water
vapour. The water absorbed produces a
change in the electrical properties and thus
the capacitance of the capacitor. The
capacitance measurement thus provides
information on the humidity level. The sender
electronics convert the measured capacitance
into a voltage signal.
Measurement of windscreen temperature
Physical principles
All bodies exchange heat with their
environment in the form of electromagnetic
radiation. This electromagnetic radiation can
include thermal radiation in the infrared
range, visible light or ultraviolet components.
The wavelength of the radiation emitted
depends on the temperature of the actual
body. A change in the temperature of the
body alters, for example, the infrared
component of the radiation emitted. The
temperature of the body can be determined
in a non-contacting manner by measuring the
infrared radiation emitted.
Operation
The infrared radiation emitted by a body
(windscreen) is measured by means of a
highly sensitive infrared radiation sensor.
A change in the temperature of the
windscreen also produces a change in the
infrared component of the thermal radiation
emitted by the windscreen. This is detected
by the sensor and converted by the sensor
electronics into a voltage signal.

The buttons for the seat heating and
ventilation options are integrated into the
front and rear control and display units
(refer to Page 74). Climate-controlled seats with heating and
ventilation function
The Audi A8 ´03 can be fitted with front and
rear climate-controlled seats as optional
equipment. These seats offer a combination
of seat heating and seat ventilation and can
be regulated individually for each occupant.
Heating/Air Conditioner
The corresponding feedback LED lights after
pushbutton activation of seat heating/seat
ventilation. The selected seat heating/seat
ventilation stage can be called up in the
display segment of the Climatronic control
unit J255 and in the MMI (Multimedia
Interface) climate control menu. Once seat
heating/seat ventilation has been activated, it
remains active even after switching off the air
conditioner by means of the ON/OFF button.The use of seat ventilation leads to lower
occupant skin temperatures. Automatic
additional seat heating operation controlled
as a function of temperature cancels the
cooling effect and the air flow is warmed.
The ventilation function promotes pleasant
conditions in the occupant's back and seat
area and eliminates sweating more quickly.
Under normal circumstances, the seat
ventilation function is deactivated
automatically after approx. 30 minutes.

Comfort seat
The seat heating and seat ventilation
functions are not incorporated into
automatic climate control mode.
Seat climate control is achieved by way of
integrated fans in the seat cushion and
backrest. Air ducts in the seat padding convey
the air warmed by the seat heating to the
occupant through the fine perforations in the
leather.

Auxiliary heater/coolant additional heater
An auxiliary heater is available as an option
for all vehicle and engine versions. The
auxiliary heater with petrol engines and
additional heater with diesel engines are
integrated into the engine coolant circuit.
Vehicles with diesel engine are fitted with an
additional heater as standard. On diesel
engines with auxiliary heater, the activated
auxiliary heater is also used as engine
additional heater depending on temperature.
Heating/Air Conditioner
Design and operation are described in
SSP 240 – Audi A2 Technical Features.
Operation with cut-in by way of remote
control or timer
In the Audi A8 ´03, the auxiliary heater is
activated by the air conditioner. The heated
coolant is initially supplied to the passenger
compartment (primarily auxiliary heater
mode). On attaining pre-determined
temperature levels, engine pre-heating is
then switched in in line with a characteristic
curve.
Activation sequence:
1 A remote control or timer signal is
transmitted to the auxiliary heater control
unit.
2 The auxiliary heater then transmits a signal
via the CAN bus to the Climatronic control
unit J255.
3 The control unit then decides as a function
of desired temperature, ambient
temperature and passenger compartment
temperature whether auxiliary ventilation
or auxiliary heating is to be employed.
The setting of the auxiliary heater/
ventilation function is shown in the setup
menu in the MMI (Multimedia-Interface).The cut-in time is "programmed" by way of
the MMI system (Multimedia Interface) under
the menu item "timer status".
4.1 Auxiliary ventilation sequence
The energy management control unit
J644 interrogates the battery capacity
check function of the battery and energy
management system to determine
whether auxiliary ventilation can be
accepted. In the event of acceptance, the
fresh-air blower is actuated.
