"Advanced Key" entry and start
authorisation system
"Advanced Key" can be taken to mean an
"advanced locking and security system".
It takes the form of a non-contacting key
recognition system. With the "Advanced Key"
package, the "Vehicle unlocking" and "Vehicle
locking" functions by way of a mechanical or
remote control key are supplemented by the non-
contacting functions "Vehicle unlocking" and
"Vehicle locking".
Functions
Advanced Key "unlocking"
The key owner enters the key detection zone next
to the vehicle (less than 1.5 m from door handle)
and reaches into the recessed handle moulding.
aerial.
The key responds by way of radio waves and the
vehicle is unlocked if authorised.
Advanced Key "starting"
The driver presses the start button, which again
initiates a key scan via the passenger-
compartment aerials near the selector lever, at the
rear centre vents and at the rear centre armrest.
The remote control key provides confirmation,
with the result that the ignition is switched on on
depressing the first stage of the start button and
the engine started on depressing the second
stage. The engine is switched off with the STOP
button.
Advanced Key "locking"
If the vehicle is to be locked from the outside, it is
sufficient to press the locking button in one of the
door handles. Actuation of the locking button
triggers a key scan via the door handle aerial and
the vehicle is locked on confirmation of the remote
control key.In addition, the driver can start the engine
with the START/STOP button (START/STOP
function) without inserting the ignition key
in the electronic ignition lock.

A distinction is made between two air
conditioner unit versions
– 2-zone front and rear climate
control
– 4-zone front and rear climate
control
and three types of control and

– Air conditioner control panel with
no seat heating/ventilation
– Air conditioner control panel with
seat heating
– Air conditioner control panel with
seat heating and seat ventilation
(identified by part number index).

Self-diagnosis
Fault diagnosis and measured value blocks
for air conditioner and seat heating system
can be read out by way of address words 08
"Air conditioner/heater electronics" and 28
"Rear climate control". The functions of and
exact procedure for self-diagnosis and
assisted fault-finding with VAS 5051 can be
found in the Heating/Air Conditioner
Workshop Manual for the relevant vehicle
model.
Operating principle
When the ignition is switched on, the
Climatronic control unit J255 starts up with
the same temperature, air distribution and
fresh-air blower speed settings etc. as were
applicable the last time the ignition was
switched off by way of the appropriate key or
using fingerprint recognition.
If fingerprint recognition has been
implemented, this has priority over key
recognition (refer also to SSP 287 – Audi A8 ´03
Electrical Components).
Personalised settings
The following settings can be made for each
climate control zone (front left, right and,
optionally, with 4-zone climate control rear left
and right):
– Left/right temperature
– Air flow
– Left/right air distribution
– Left/right seat heating
– Left/right seat ventilation
– Operating modes (AUTO for driver and front
passenger, temperature-adjustable centre
vents, automatically controlled
recirculated-air mode, ECON)
The heated windscreen can be activated by
way of the air conditioner defrost button or
the air conditioner control unit automatically
switches on the electric heated windscreen if
the appropriate conditions are satisfied
(windscreen defrost or automatic mode on
cold starting).
The Climatronic J255 and heated windscreen
J505 control units communicate by way of the
LIN bus. The Climatronic control unit transmits
the specified windscreen heating power to the
heated windscreen control unit on the LIN bus.
Heating/Air Conditioner
Key recognition takes place in the case of
remote control (radio or key transponder),
with the driver identification control unit
providing the Climatronic control unit J255
with the appropriate information by way of
the CAN bus.
The electrically heated windscreen is only
supplied with the amount of power which can
currently be drawn from the electrical system
without draining the battery. This is
monitored by the energy management
control unit J644.
As is the case with the Audi A4, the
windscreen is heated by applying voltage to a
metallic foil fitted in the glass (refer to
SSP 213).
As in the Audi A4, the air conditioner
compressor is regulated as a function of load
and controlled externally by way of the
compressor regulating valve (refer to
SSP 240). The Climatronic control unit J255 is
connected to the convenience CAN, via
which diagnosis is also performed.
A manual air conditioning system is not
available.
