Warm and cold
Warm and cold Climate control system
Description
Different systems could be installed.
- manual climate control system* or
- automatic climate control system*
The
climate control system* cools and removes
humidity from the air in the vehic le interior. It is
the most effective when the windows and panor­
ama sunroof* are closed.
If there is a build-up of
heat inside the vehicle, ventilation can help to
speed up the cooling process . For this reason, the
windows and panorama sunroof can be opened
from the outside .~
page 41, Convenience open­
ing/closing
Pollutant filter
The pollutan t filter removes pollutants such as
dust and pollen from the air.
Key recognition
You can store various settings for the manua l and
automatic
climate control system* and assign
them to the key being used .
A WARNING
Poor visibility can lead to acc idents.
- For safer driving, keep all w indows free of
ice, snow and fog.
- Become familiar as quickly as possible with
the correct use and function of the climate
control system, espec ially with the defrost­
ing and defogging function .
- When the temperature is below freezing,
only use the windsh ield washer system after
the windsh ield has been warmed by the cli -
64
mate control system. The washer f luid could
freeze on the w indshield and impair visibili­
ty.
(D Note
- If you suspect that the climate control sys­
tem is damaged, switch the system off to
prevent further damage and have it checked
by an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility .
- Repairs to the Audi climate control system
require special technical knowledge and
special tools. See an author ized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility .
@ For the sake of the environment
Reducing the amount of fuel used also re­
duces the amount of pollutants that enter the
a ir .
@ Tips
- To prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to prevent the win­
dows from fogg ing over, the air intake in
front of the w indshield must be free of ice,
snow or leaves.
- Condensation from the cooling system* can
dr ip and form a pudd le of water under the
vehicle . This is normal and does not mean
there is a leak .
- Th e energy management system may switch
the seat heating* or rear window defroster
off temporarily. These systems are available
again as soon as the energy balance has
been restored.
- The f lows through the vents under the rear
window. Make sure the openings are not
covered when p lacing clothing on the lug­
gage compartment cover.

~ WARNING
Individuals with reduced sensitivity to pain or
temperature could develop burns when using
the seat heating function. To reduce the risk
of injury, these individuals should not use seat
heating.
(D Note
To avoid damage to the heating elements in the seats, do not kneel on the seats or place
heavy loads on a small area of the seat.
(D Tips
- The setting for the seat heating on the driv­
er's side is assigned to the key that is in use.
- If the front passenger's seat heating is
turned on, it will not turn on again automat­
ically if more than 10 minutes have passed
between switching the ignition
off and
switching it on again.
Auxiliary heater
Appl ies to vehicles: with diesel engine
In cool outside temperatures, the electric auxili­
ary heater helps the vehicle interior to warm
more quickly. The auxiliary heater switches on
and
off automatically according to the vehicle
heating settings.
The "auxiliary heater" function can be switched
on and
off in the MMI. Select: the !MENUI button
> Car > Systems* control button > AC > Auxiliary

Driving
& WARNING
-Never allow the engine to run in confined
spaces, because this increases the risk of as ­
phyxiation.
- Never
remove the ignition key from the igni­
tion look while the vehicle is moving . Other ­
wise the steering lock will engage and you
will not be able to steer the vehicle.
- Please note that the brake booster and pow­
er steering only work when the engine is
running . When the engine off, you must use
more force to steer or brake the vehicle. Be­
cause the usual steering and braking capa­
bility is not available, the risk of accidents or
injuries increases.
- Always take the vehicle key with you when
leaving the vehicle,
even for a short period
of time. This applies particularly when chil­
dren remain in the vehicle. Otherwise the
children could start the engine or operate
electrical equipment such as power win­
dows .
CT'.) Note
- Avoid high engine speed, full throttle, and
heavy engine load as long as the engine has
not reached operating temperature yet . You
could damage the engine .
- The engine cannot be started by pushing or
towing .
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not let the engine run while parked to
warm up. Begin driving immediately. This re­
duces unnecessary emissions.
(D Tips
- If it is difficult to turn the key to position
(D, turn the steering wheel back and forth
slightly to release the steering wheel lock.
- After starting a cold engine, there may be a
brief period of increased noise because the
oil pressure must first build up in the hy­
draulic
valve adjusters . This is normal and
not a cause for concern.
- If the battery is disconnected and recon­
nected, you have to hold the ignition key in
74
position (D for five seconds for the engine
to start.
- After switching the ignition off, you can only
remove the key when the selector lever is in
the "P" (Park) position. After that, the selec­
tor lever is locked.

tion look while the vehicle is moving . Other­
wise, the steering lock could suddenly en­
gage and you would not be able to steer the
vehicle.
