Warm and cold Climate control system
Description
The climate control system warms , cools and re­
moves humidity from the air in the vehicle inte ri­
or. It functions most effective ly w hen the w in ­
dows are closed. If there is a build -up of heat in ­
side the vehicle, venti lation can help to speed up
the cooling process .
Pollutant filter
The pollutant filte r removes pollutants such as
d ust and pollen from the a ir.
Key recognition
Certain settings are automat ically stored and as­
signed to the remote contro l key being used .
A WARNING
Poor vis ibili ty ca n lead to ac cidents .
- For safer d riving, keep all windows free of
ice, snow a nd fog.
- Become fam ilia r as qu ickly as possible with
the correct use and function of the cl imate
c o ntro l system, espe cially with the defrost­
ing and defogg ing func tion.
- Whe n the tempe ratu re is below free zing,
o nly use the win dshi eld washer sys tem after
the wi nds hield ha s been war med by t he cli ­
mate co ntro l sys tem. The washer fluid co ul d
freeze on the w indshield and impair visibili ­
ty .
{LlJ) Note
-If yo u suspect t hat the clim ate con trol sys ­
tem is d amaged, sw itch the system off to
Warm and c old
preven t furt her damage and have it chec ked
by an autho rized Audi dea ler o r auth orized
Audi Service Facility .
- Repairs to t he Audi climate control system
require special technical know ledge and
special tools. Have it inspected by an a u­
thorized Aud i dealership or a qualified elec­
tronics store.
@) For the sake of the environment
Reducing the amount of fue l used a lso re­
duces the amount of pollutants that enter the
a ir.
{!) Tips
- To prevent interference with the heat ing
and cooling output and to prevent the win­
dows from fogging over , th e a ir intake in
fro nt of t he w indshie ld m ust be free of ice,
snow o r leaves .
- Condensation from the cooli ng system can
dr ip and form a pudd le of water unde r the
veh icle . T h is is no rma l and does not mean
there is a le ak .
- Th e ene rgy managemen t system may tem­
pora rily switch off certa in fu nctions, s uch as
the seat heati ng* o r rear window defogger.
Th ese sys tems are availab le aga in as soon

minute and t hen stays on, there is system ma l­
function. The following are examples of sit ua­
tions that cou ld cause a malfunction:
-If the message appears at the end o f the adap ­
tation phase, the system may not detect one or
severa l of the wheel senso rs necessa ry for pres ­
s ur e monitoring. This may result from one or
more wheels being installed without wheel sen­
sors or with incompatible wheel sensors .
- A wheel sensor o r another component has
failed.
- Using snow cha ins can affect the f unction of
the system because of the shie lding effect of
the cha ins.
- The tire pressure monitor ing system is not
available due to a malfunction.
- Transmitters with the same frequency, such as
headphones or remote-controlled dev ices, may
cause a temporary system malfunction due to
the strong electromagnetic field .

The m;i indicator lig ht and the message turn off
once the tire pressure monitoring system is avail ­
