CX) For
a comfortable climate inside the vehicle:
- In the summer, adjust the temperature to just
a few degrees below the outside temperature
- Do not turn the blower up too high
- Do not point the air outlets directly at the occu-
pants
� Adjusting the blower speed
The rotary control (D can be used to adjust the
blower speed in small steps. You should leave
the blower on at a low setting to prevent the win­
dows from misting up and to ensure that the ve­
hicle interior is constantly ventilated. To demist
the windows, we recommend that you increase
the blower speed and set control @ to�-

Switching air cooling* on/off
The air cooling system only works when the blow­
er is switched on. When the air cooling is switch­
ed off, the air is neither cooled nor dehumidified.
The windows may mist up as a result. The air
cooling is switched off automatically at low out­
side temperatures.

dows are defrosted or demisted. The air recircu­
lation is switched off, but can be switched on
again manually by pressing the� button.

� Switching air recirculation on/off
In air recirculation mode, the air from the interi­
or of the vehicle is filtered and recirculated. This
setting prevents fumes etc. from entering the in­

Switching rear window heating on/
off
If the rear window heating is activated with the
ignition switched on, the battery management
determines whether or not the battery charge
level is sufficient for the rear window heating to
be switched on. Otherwise the rear window heat­
ing operates when the engine is running, and
switches off automatically after about
10 -20 minutes, depending on the outside tem­
perature.
To switch on the rear window heating perma­
nently, press and hold the !lliil REAR! button for at
least two seconds. This setting will be stored for
approximately 15 minutes after the ignition is
switched off.
A WARNING
For reasons of safety you should not leave the
air recirculation switched on for too long. This
mode prevents fresh air from entering the ve­
hicle, so the windows can mist over if the air
cooling is switched off. Bad visibility can
cause an accident.

CD CAUTION
If the engine has been working hard for a long
time, there is a risk of heat building up in the
engine compartment after the engine has
been switched off; this could cause engine
damage. For this reason, you should leave the
engine idling for about 2 minutes before
switching it off.
{(D Note
After the engine is stopped, the radiator fan
may remain on or turn itself back on for up to
10 minutes, even if the ignition is switched
off. This may occur for the following reasons:
- Residual heat has raised the coolant tem-
perature.
- Direct sunlight has additionally heated up
the engine compartment while the engine is
warm.
-Applies to vehicles with diesel particulate
filter: The emission control system is hot
because of the regeneration process, even
though the engine has not yet reached oper­
ating temperature.

Vl Driving
In start/stop mode, the engine is switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops, e.g. at
traffic lights. The ignition remains on during this
stop phase. The engine is automatically started
on demand.
The start/stop system is automatically activated
each time you switch on the ignition.
Basic conditions for start/stop mode
- The driver's door must be closed.
- The driver's seat belt must be buckled.
- The bonnet must be closed.
- The vehicle must have been moving at over 4
km/h since the last stop.
A WARNING
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary. Otherwise you may not have
the full benefit of the brake servo and pow­
er steering. You may need more strength to
steer and brake the vehicle than you nor­
mally would. This would mean a greater risk
of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man­
ner.
- Always take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle -even if you only intend to be
gone for a short time. This is especially im­
portant if children are left in the car. They
might otherwise be able to start the engine
or use power-operated equipment such as
the electric windows -this could lead to in­
juries.
- To avoid injury, make sure that the start/
stop system is switched off before working
in the engine compartment ¢page 73.
CD CAUTION
Always switch off the start/stop system
¢page 73 before driving through water.

hold assist* is switched on, the engine will not
start until the accelerator is pressed. The indi­
cator lamp. will go out.
Further information for automatic gearboxes
The engine is switched off when the selector lev­
er is in position P, D, N or So r in manual mode. If
the selector lever is in position P, the engine will
remain off even if you take your foot off the
brake. The engine will not start again until you
press the accelerator or select another gear and
take your foot off the brake.
The engine will start again if you move the selec­
tor lever to R during a stop phase.
If you do not want the engine to start, move the
selector lever quickly from D through R to P.

Note
- You can control whether or not the engine is
switched off by varying the amount of pres­
sure on the brake pedal. For instance, if you
brake gently in stop-and-go traffic or before
turning off at a junction, the engine will re­
main on while the vehicle is at a standstill.
As soon as you press the brake pedal harder,
the engine will be switched off.
- On vehicles with manual gearbox, you
should keep your foot on the brake during a
stop phase to prevent the vehicle from mov­
ing.- If you
press the !START
ENGINE
STOP!
but­
ton during a stop phase, the ignition will be
switched off.
- If the engine stalls on a vehicle with manual
gearbox, you can start it again directly by
pressing the clutch pedal immediately .
- When you stop and the start/stop system
turns off the engine, the ignition remains
on. Before leaving the vehicle, ensure that
the ignition is switched off; otherwise the
battery will be drained .

Audi drive select (vehicle
set-up functions)
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select allows you to use different set-ups
on your vehicle. The four modes efficiency*, com­
fort, auto and dynamic allow the driver, for ex­
ample, to change from a sporty mode to a more
comfortable one via the �.:i.l\:'I button in the centre
console or via the infotainment system. In addi­
tion, the individual mode allows you to adapt the
vehicle set-up to suit your personal driving style.
For example, you might choose to combine a
more dynamic engine set-up with a lighter steer­
ing response.
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The possible vehicle set-up in each mode de­
pends on which equipment is installed on your
vehicle.
Engine and automatic gearbox*
The response of the engine and automatic gear­
box* to accelerator pedal movements will be
more spontaneous or balanced, depending on
which mode you select. In efficiency* mode the
automatic gearbox* selects the next gear at low­
er engine speeds and the coasting mode is activa-
100 ted
¢ page 82. This helps to reduce fuel con­
sumption.
Suspension control (Audi magnetic ride)*
The suspension control uses sensors to collect in­
formation on steering movements, braking and
acceleration input by the driver, road surface
quality, road speed and vehicle loading. With
drive select you can choose between dynamic and
comfort-oriented suspension set-ups (dynamic
and comfort modes), or opt for a more balanced
set-up (auto mode).
Steering
The degree of power assistance can be varied.
The light, indirect steering response in comfort
mode is particularly suitable on long motorway
trips, for instance. The steering has a tighter,
more direct feel in dynamic mode.
Air conditioner*
The air conditioner runs in a particularly econom­
ical mode when the efficiency* setting is selec­
ted. When this function is selected, eco* is shown
in the display of the automatic air conditioner.
Cruise control system*
The acceleration response is particularly econom­
ical in efficiency* mode.
Engine sound*
The sound of the engine is matched to the selec­
ted mode and ranges from subdued to dynamic.
(QJ} Note
- On some models the vehicle's maximum
speed can only be obtained in the auto and
dynamic modes.
- On vehicles with manual gearbox, an E ap­
pears in the gear-change indicator when ef­
ficiency* mode is activated.
-Applies to vehicles with manual gearbox: If
you press the accelerator right down past
the point of resistance in efficiency* mode,
the engine power is automatically control­
led to give your vehicle maximum accelera-
tion. ..,.
