& WARNING
• When you lock your vehicle from outside, nobody -especially
children · should remain inside the vehicle. Remember, when you
lock the vehicle from the outside the windows cannot be opened
from the inside.
• When you leave the vehicle, always remove the ignition key and
take it with you. This will prevent passengers (children, for example) from accidentally being locked in the vehicle should they
accidentally press the power locking switch.
• Do not leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised. In an
emergency it would be impossible to open the doors from the
outside without the key.
[ i J Tips
• In the event of a crash with airbag deployment all locked doors
will be automatically unlocked to give access to the vehicle occu
pants from the outside .
• If the power locking system should malfunction, you can lock
each door individually using the vehicle key.
• If the power locking system should fail, you can still open the
fuel tank flap in an emergency=>
page 218.
• You are well advised not to keep valuables inside an unattended
vehicle, visible or not . Even a properly locked vehicle cannot provide
the security of a safe! •

The pollutant filter (particle filter) ensures that contaminants in the
outside air (such as dust or po llen) are grea tly reduced or stopped.
T he air is also filtered in recirculation mode.
The pollutant fil ter e lement must be changed according to the inter
vals specified in the maintenance schedu le so that the air condi
tioning system's performance is not adversely affected.
If the fil ter's effectiveness is weakened by driving the vehicle in
areas with heavi ly polluted outside air, the filter element should also
be changed in between the listed services .

• I f you suspect that the climate contro ls have been damaged ,
switch the system off to avoid damaging it , and have it inspected by
an authorized Audi dealer.
• Audi climate control system repairs require specia l expertise and
the proper tools. You shou ld contact an authorized Audi dealer in
the event of malfunct ions.
[ i ] Tip s
• To avoid adversely affecting heating and cooling performance
and to prevent condensation on the windows, the air intake in front
of the windsh ield must be free of ice, snow, and leaves.
• The air coming from the vents and circu lating through the en tire
interior is extracted through the out let slots in the side panels in the
luggage compartment. Make sure that the outlet slots are not
covered by clo th ing, etc.
• Climate control works most effectively if the windows are closed .
However , if the interior o f a parked vehicle is extremely hot from the
sun's rays, briefly opening the windows can speed up the cooling
process. •
