and three types of control and
display unit
– Air conditioner control panel with
no seat heating/ventilation
– Air conditioner control panel with
seat heating
– Air conditioner control panel with

Self-diagnosis
Fault diagnosis and measured value blocks
for air conditioner and seat heating system
can be read out by way of address words 08
"Air conditioner/heater electronics" and 28
"Rear climate control". The functions of and
exact procedure for self-diagnosis and
assisted fault-finding with VAS 5051 can be
found in the Heating/Air Conditioner
Workshop Manual for the relevant vehicle
model.
Operating principle
When the ignition is switched on, the
Climatronic control unit J255 starts up with
the same temperature, air distribution and
fresh-air blower speed settings etc. as were
applicable the last time the ignition was
switched off by way of the appropriate key or
using fingerprint recognition.
If fingerprint recognition has been
implemented, this has priority over key
recognition (refer also to SSP 287 – Audi A8 ´03
Electrical Components).
Personalised settings
The following settings can be made for each
climate control zone (front left, right and,
optionally, with 4-zone climate control rear left
and right):
– Left/right temperature
– Air flow
– Left/right air distribution
– Left/right seat heating
– Left/right seat ventilation
– Operating modes (AUTO for driver and front
passenger, temperature-adjustable centre
vents, automatically controlled
recirculated-air mode, ECON)
The heated windscreen can be activated by
way of the air conditioner defrost button or
the air conditioner control unit automatically
switches on the electric heated windscreen if
the appropriate conditions are satisfied
(windscreen defrost or automatic mode on
cold starting).
The Climatronic J255 and heated windscreen
J505 control units communicate by way of the
LIN bus. The Climatronic control unit transmits
the specified windscreen heating power to the
heated windscreen control unit on the LIN bus.
Heating/Air Conditioner
Key recognition takes place in the case of
remote control (radio or key transponder),
with the driver identification control unit
providing the Climatronic control unit J255
with the appropriate information by way of
the CAN bus.
The electrically heated windscreen is only
supplied with the amount of power which can
currently be drawn from the electrical system
without draining the battery. This is
monitored by the energy management
control unit J644.
As is the case with the Audi A4, the
windscreen is heated by applying voltage to a
metallic foil fitted in the glass (refer to
SSP 213).
As in the Audi A4, the air conditioner
compressor is regulated as a function of load
and controlled externally by way of the
compressor regulating valve (refer to
SSP 240). The Climatronic control unit J255 is
connected to the convenience CAN, via
which diagnosis is also performed.
A manual air conditioning system is not
available.
