Ride height adjustment (4 Level Air Suspension)
......., _____ ___ �--
-�
�. 842· 8!18 ..J
The ride height level can be adjusted auto­
matically or manually -depending on
the vehicle's speed:
• Low laval -Reduced ground clearance,
like a sport suspension. The lowest green
LED will come in the level display (2).
In automatic mode, the vehicle will auto­
matically lower to the low level after it
reaches about 75 mph (120 km/h). The sys­
tem builds in a brief delay before this hap­
pens. If the speed drops below about 45
mph (70 km/h) for an extended period, the
system resumes the normal level. •
Normal level -Standard ground clear­
ance. The two lower green LED's will now
be lit in the level display (2).
• High level -Increased ground clear­
ance for rough roads and trails. The three
lower LED's will now be lit in the level dis­
play (2).
• Highest level-Ride height level for ex­
tremely rough roads and terrain. All four
green LED's will now be lit in the level dis­
play (2).
Notes
• If you manually select "High" or "High­
est" while the automatic mode is on, but
the vehicle has slowed down to the point
where it lowers to "Normal" or "Low"
level, the system will automatically raise the
vehicle back to the "High" position.
When does this happen?
- If the vehicle speed falls below 38 mph
(60 km/h), this will happen after about
30 seconds.
- If the vehicle speed falls below 19 mph
(30 km/ h), this will happen right away. CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMEN T
Yo u can deactivate this mode either by
manuallly selecting Normal or Low level, or
by switching off the ignition.
To activate this mode again, first switch on
the ignition and then select High or Highest
level.
• In the manual mode, the automatic
switching to High level and automatic low­
ering to low level at high vehicle speeds are
deactivat ed.
• When you park your vehicle. make
certain that there is enough clear­
ance above the roof. Sometimes
changes in temperature or load will
cause the vehicle to raise itself auto­
matically. The roof could get dam­
aged if there isn't enough clearnace.
153

CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMENT
The above illustration shows the outlets at
the rear of the center console.
Air is directed to these outlets automati­
cally.
The heater outlets for the rear footwall are
located under the front seats. They are con­
trolled together with outlet 5.
16 6 Solar
roof*
On models with a solar sliding roof, if the ve­
hicle is parked in sufficiently strong sunlight
and the ignition has been turned off, the
blower automatically switches to the solar­
powered mode. The blower motor runs on
solar energy, keeping the vehicle's interior
supplied with fresh air.
For optimum air delivery the center (4) and
the side dashboard vents (3) should be
opened.
The solar -powered fan only works when the
sliding roof is closed or raised open at the
rear.
If the ventilation system happens to be set
to the recirculate mode, the climate control
system automatically switches to the fresh
air mode. Key
coding
To achie ve maximum comfort levels, the
current manual settings for the air condi­
tioning system are automatically saved.
For example, if the air conditioning settings
were changed when someone else used
your car, the air condition system will auto­
matically be reset to the settings that match
your key when you turn on the ignition
again.
This assumes that the previous driver used
a key other than yours. If the previous driver
used your key, his or her new settings
would be assigned to your key.
If a number of persons use the vehicle, then
if possible, each should use a different key.
In this way, your personal air conditioning
set ting will be restored automatically.

---------------------CONTROLS AND
EQUIPMENT
General notes
• Vehicle heating is depend upon tne tem­
perature of the engine coolant -therefore,
your vehicle interior will warm uponly when
the engine has reached its operating tem­
perature.
When the ambient temperature is too low,
the fan only switches to high speed modes
when the coolant has reached a sufficiently
high temperature, or when the ® button
has been depressed.
• Keeping the air intake slots in front of the
windshield free from ice, snow and debris
helps to make sure that the climate control
system will work properly.
• When the air conditioner compressor is
on it reduces both the temperature and the
humid ity of the air inside the vehicle. This
prevents the windows from fogging up.
• The air conditioner works best with the
windows and power roof* closed. •
If the inside temperature is very high af­
ter the vehicle has been parked in the sun,
open windows and allow the hot air to es­
cape before switching on the air condi­
tioner.
• The dust and pollen filter will prevent
dust and pollen etc. in the outside air from
entering the car. Switch to air recirculation
to prevent unpleasant fumes from entering
the vehicle.
If water drips under the
vehicle ...
At high outside temperatures and humidity,
condensation may drip from the evaporator.
This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
If the airflow is not cool ...
• At low ambient temperatures the air con­
ditioner compressor switches off automati­
cally. The compressor cannot be switc hed
on again in this case, even by pressing the
AUTO button. •
The air conditioner may switch itself off
temporarily to ensure sufficient engine
cooling when the engine is running at full
load.
The air conditioner will also be switched off
temporarily in the kick-down function. See
page 109.
• Check the air conditioning fuse on the
fuse p imel -see page 27 4. Have it replaced,
if necessary.
• If you suspect that the air conditioner is
damaged, for instance after an accident,
switch to the ECON and have the system
examined immediately for leaks or other
damage.

CONTROLS AND
EQUIPMENT--------------------
Maintenance
• For maximum efficiency of the air condi­
tioner the dust and pollen filter elements
must 'be replaced at the intervals indicated
in the Maintenance Schedule.
• The condenser must be checked regu­
larly to make sure it is clean. If it becomes
obstructed by dirt or insects, spray 1t clear
with water.
• Repairs to the Audi air condition­
ing system require specialized
knowledge and special tools.
If the system is not functioning
properly, contact your Audi Dealer.
16 8 Power roof*
The roof will slide open or tilt up at the rear
as required. When the ignition is on it can be
opened and closed by turning the rota�
control next to the interior light. The roof 1s
tilted open or closed by pressing or pulling
the control -see illustration.
When turning the ignition off, however, the
sunr oof can still be operated as long as the
driver's and front passenger's door are
closed. When either door is opened, sliding
roof operation will be deactivated .
Always close the roof completely if you are
going to park your vehicle and leave. �W
ARNING

roof 1 tilt roof. Not paying atten­
tion could cause you or others to
be caught and injured as the roof

ROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Notes
• When the glass roof opens, the sun visor
used to keep out strong sunlight is also
opened automatically. If desired, the visor
can be slid shut manually when the power
roof is closed.
It is important to remember to close the
power roof when parking the car or if it sud­
denly starts raining -especially when the
sun shade is extended.
• The power roof is protected by a circuit
breaker to prevent the electrica l system
from overlo ading. If the power roof will not
close normally, it can be closed by pulling
the controL
Conv enience closing
You can also close . the power roof from the
outside when locking your vehicle:

Emergency closing
If you cannot close the roof with the electric
switch, you can still close the roof manually
using a crank (see right illustr ation). The
crank is located behind the fuse cover (see
page 274).
In order to access the power roof motor, re­
move the interior light (lens and housing) as
follows:
• Place the flat side of the screwdriver
found in the vehicle tool kit on the rear side
of the lens as shown in the illustration and
carefu lly pry the lens downward.

Then insert the screwdriver into the gap
between the light housing and the frame in
the rear on the side and carefully pry out the
housing.
To close the roof, press the manual
crank (1) into the hex socket (2) until it en­
gages. Keep pressing down and turn the
crank.
Reinst all the light housing and lens in the
reverse order.
Have the problem corrected by your autho­
rized Audi dealer. Power
roof with solar panel*
The solar panel is operated in the same way
as the power roof. The roof's solar cells sup­
ply energy for the air conditioner blower.
See page 166.
The interior trim is fixed to the solar panel
cannot be opened and closed separately.
