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 ­

{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

- 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

{!) 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,
