A WARNING
- Daytime running lights and automatic
headlights are only intended to assist
the driver. They do not relieve the driver
of his responsibility to check the head­
lights and to turn them on manually ac­
cording to the current light and visibility
conditions. For example, fog cannot be
detected by the light sensors*. So always
switch on the headlights
~D under these
weather conditions and when driving in
the dark.
- Crashes can happen when you cannot see
the road ahead and when you cannot be
seen by other motorists. Always turn on
the headlights so that you can see ahead
and so that others can see your car from
the back.
- Please obey all laws when using the
lighting systems described here.
@ Tips
-With the switch in AUTO front fog lights
and rear fog lights cannot be turned on in addition.
- The light sensor for headlight control is
located in the rear view mirror mount.
You should therefore not apply any stick­
ers to the windshield in this area in order
to prevent malfunctions or failures.
- Some exterior lighting functions can be
adjusted ¢
page 61.
-When you remove your key from the igni­
tion while the vehicle's lights are turned
on, a buzzer sounds as long as the driv­
er's door is open.
- In cool or damp weather, the inside of
the headlights, turn signals and tail
lights can fog over due to the tempera­
ture difference between the inside and
outside. They will clear shortly after
M "' switching them on. This does not affect 0
~ the service life of the lighting.

Adaptive light
Applies to vehicles: with adaptive ligh t
When driving around bends, the relevant area
of the rood is better illuminated .

Switching on adaptive light
... Tu rn the light sw itch to AUTO ¢ page 60,
fig. 56.
The adaptive light is a dynamic corner ing
li ght. When the light is on, it follows the
cur ve of the road. It is dependan t upon the ve­
hicle speed and the angle of the steering
whee l. The curve is then better illuminated .
T he system works when the vehicle is moving
from 6 mph (10 km/) to 68 mph ( 110 km/h).
T he corne ring ligh t will switch on automati­
ca lly at a specific stee ring wheel angle. It
works up to an approximate speed of 44 mph
(70 km/h) .
At approxima tely 72 mph (115 km/h) the ex­
pressway light switches on, wh ich better dis­
tributes the light and increases the light cone
range . The expressway light sw itches
off at
approximately 62 mph (100 km/h).
Perimeter lighting in the mirror housing
Applies to vehicles: with light package
LEDs in the exterior mirror housing illuminate
the ground during entry .
This func tion ensures that when unlockin g,
the vehicle pe riphery is illuminated in the
dark. LEDs in the exterior m irror housing are
switched on. The function cannot be turned
off separate ly.

94 Warm and cold
Warm and cold Climate control
Description
The air conditioner is fully automatic and is
designed to maintain a comfortable and uni­
form climate inside the vehicle .
We recommend the following settings :
.. Set the temperature to 72 °F (+22 °C).
.. Press the
!AUTO ! button.
With this setting, you attain maximum com­
fort in the least amount of time. Change this
setting, as desired, to meet your personal
needs.
The climate controls are a combination of
heating, ventilation and cooling systems,
which automatica lly reduce humidity and cool
the air inside your vehicle.
The air temperature, air flow and air distribu­
tion are automatica lly regu lated to achieve
and maintain the desired passenger compart­
ment temperature as quick ly as possib le.
The system automatically compensates for
changes in outside temperature and for the
intensity of the sunlight entering the vehicle.
We recommend you use the
Automatic mode
¢ page 97 for year-round comfort.
Please note the following:
Turn on the air conditioner to reduce humidity
in the vehicle . Thi s also prevents the windows
from fogging up.
When the outside temperature is high and the
a ir i s very humid,
condensation from the
evaporator may drip under the vehicle. This is
norma l and does not indicate a leak.
If the outside temperature is low, the fan nor­
mally only switches to a h igher speed once
the eng ine coolant has warmed up sufficient­
l y.
The air conditioner temporarily switches off
when you drive off from a standstill using full
thrott le to save eng ine power. The
compressor a lso switches off if the coo l­
ant temperature is too high , so that the en­
gine can be adequately cooled under extreme
loads.
Air pollutants filter
The air pollutants filt er (a comb ined particle
filter and activated charcoa l filter) reduces or
prevents outside air pollution (dust, or pollen)
from enter ing the vehicle. The air is also fil­
tered in air recirculation mode .
The air pollutants filt er must be changed at
the interva ls specified in your Warranty
&
Maintenance booklet, so that the a ir condi­
tioner can properly work.
If you drive your vehicle in an area with high
air pollution, the filter may need to be
changed more frequently than specified in
your Audi Warranty
& Maintenance booklet. If
in doubt, ask your authorized Audi Service Ad­
visor for advice .
Key coded settings
The air conditioner settings selected are auto­
matically stored and assigned to the key be ing
used. When the vehicle is started, the air con­
ditioner automa tically selects the settings as­
s igned to that key. This way every driver will
maintain h is/her own personal settings and
does not have to reset them manually .
If a different dr iver uses your key and changes
the a ir cond itioner settings, the latest adjust­
ments will e rase and replace the settings you
have stored.
Energy management
To prevent the battery from being discharged
and to restore the balance of energy, compo­
nents which require large amounts of energy
are temporarily cut back or switched off
¢ page 228. Heating systems in pa rticular re­
quire a great deal of energy.
If yo u notice , fo r
example, that the seat* or rear window heat­
ing is not heating, they have been temporarily
cut back or switched off by
energy manage­
ment.
These systems are availab le aga in as
soon as the energy balance has been restored . .,.

98 Warm and cold
The temperature should be set to 72 ° F
(22 °C) o r higher . Temperat ure is contro lled
automatically. The maximum amount of a ir
flows mainly from the vents below the wind­
shield.
To defog the rear side windows, the air vents in the doo r pillars sho uld be open and di rect­
ed at the windows .
Manual air recirculation ~
Air recirculation prevents exhaust fumes or
other pollution from entering the vehicle.
Turning on air recirculation

Turning off air recirculation
> Press the~ button agai n, or
> press the IAU TO I button, or
> press th e ~ button.
In the a ir recirculation mode, the air in the
passenger compa rtme nt is recirculated and
fil tered to prevent exhaust fumes and other
pollu tion from en teri ng the veh icle . We rec ­
ommend that you use the manu al air recircu ­
l ation under the following conditions :
- when d riving through tunne ls
- in a traffic jam .
A WARNING
Do not use the air reci rc u lat io n mode for
e xte nded per io d s of t i me . T he windows

A WARNING
- Always pay attention to traffic even when
the cruise control is switched on. You are
always responsible for your speed and
the distance between your veh icle and
other veh icles .
- For safety reasons, the cruise control
should not be used in the city, in stop­
and-go traffic, on twisting roads and
when road conditions are poor (such as
ice, fog , gravel, heavy rain and hydro­
p laning) - risk of accident.
- Turn off the cruise control temporarily
when en ter ing turn lanes, highway exit
lanes or in construction zones .
- Please note that inadvertently "resting"
your foot on the accelerator pedal causes
the cruise control not to brake. This is because the cruise control is overridden
by the driver's acceleration.
- Never use the cruise control when driving
off-road o r on unpaved roads. The cruise
control is intended for use only when the
vehicle is being operated on paved roads,
and is not suitable for use off-road or on
unpaved roads .
(D Tips
The cruise control cannot maintain a con­
stant speed when driving downhill. The ve­
hicle will accelerate under its own weight .
Downshift to a lower gear or use the
brakes to slow down.

Disconne cting the batt ery t erminals
Some vehicle functions (power w indow regu ­
l ators, for example) are lost if the battery ter­
minals are disconnected . These functions have
to be re learned after the battery terminals are
connected again. To prevent this, the battery
should only be disconnected from the vehicle
electrical system when absolutely necessary
for repairs .
Vehicle s not driven fo r lo ng period s
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period
of several days or weeks, electrical compo­
nents are gradually cut back or switched off .
This reduces energy consumption and main­
tains starting capab ility over a longer per iod
¢ page 228 .
Take into consideration that when you unlock
your vehicle, some convenience functions,
such as the inter ior lights or the power seat
adjustment, may not be available . The con­
ve nience funct ions w ill be available again
when yo u turn on the ignition and start the
engine.
Winter op eration
During the winter months, battery capacity
tends to decrease as tempe ratures d rop . This
i s because more powe r is also consumed while
start ing, and the headl ights, rea r window de ­
fogger, etc., are used more often.
Avo id unnecessary power consumption, par­
ticularly in c ity t raffic or when t rave ling on ly
short d istances. Let you r autho rized Aud i
dealer check the capacity of the vehicle bat­
tery before winter sets in ¢
page 268. A well
charged battery wi ll not only prevent starting
prob lems when the weather is cold, but will
also last longer .
If your vehicle is left standing for severa l
weeks at extremely low temperat ures, the
veh icle battery should be removed and
stored where it will not freeze. This will
prevent it from bei ng damaged and hav ing
to be replaced.
