Warm and cold
Climate controls
Controls
The air conditioning automatically maintains the selected
temperature in the vehicleinterior throughout each
se ason.
F ig. 76 C limate contro ls
We recommend the following setting:
- Rotate the knob~ fig. 76@ to the right to switch on the
ai r conditioning.
- Set the temperature to 72 °F (22 °C).
- Press the !AUTO
j ~ fig. 76 button.
Con tro ls and eq uip­
ment
W arm and cold
Using the previously recommended setting is the quickest way to
achieve a comfortable climate in the vehicle. This setting should
therefore only be changed when personal comfort levels or certa in
circumstances require it.
The climate controls are a combination of automatic heating and
ventilation systems and a cooling system which dehumidifies and cools the air inside the vehic le .
The climate controls automatically maintain a temperature once it has been set. The temperature of the air from the vents, fan speed
(air volume) and air dist ribu tion are a lso automatically adjus ted . The
system also takes into account strong sunshine so that manual
adjus tment is not necessary. So in almost all cases,
a ut omatic mode
offers the best conditions for the comfort of the occupants at all
times of the year~
page 88.
Ple ase not e:
In cooling mode, relative humidity in the interior is reduced. This
prevents the windows from fogging up .
When relative humidity and temperatures outside are high,
conden ­
s ate
can drip from the air conditioning evaporator and form a pool
of water under the vehicle . This is normal and not an indication of a
leak!
When outside temperatures are low, the fan does no t switch to a
higher speed until the coolant has reached an adequate tempera­
ture, with the exception of t he defrost setting .
When accelerating at wide-open throttle, the air conditioning compressor is temporarily switched off to maintain fu ll engine
power.
In order to ensure engine cooling under extreme engine loads, the
compressor is switched off if coolant temperatures climb too high ...

Using the climate controls economically
E conomical use of the climate c ontrols helps to save fuel.
When climate control is working in cooling mode, engine
performance is reduced and fuel consumption is affected.
To keep the t ime the air cond itioning is on as s hort as
poss ible, you s hould do the following:
Controls and equip ­
ment
W arm and cold
- If you would like to save fuel, swit ch the air conditioning
off .
- If you open the windows while driving, switch the air
conditioning off .
- If the veh icle is extremely hot due to the heat of the sun,
briefly open doors and windows.
'£> For th e sake of th e environm ent
When you save fuel, you reduce emissions from the vehicle. •

Starting and stopping the engine
Starting the engine
The engine can only be started with on original Audi key
and the clutch pedal* depressed.
- Set the parking brake.
Move the selector lever to the neutral position (automatic
transmission: selector lever in P or N)
~ & .
- On vehicles with manual transmission, fully depress the
clutch pedal.
- Turn the ignition key to position
0 ~ page 92, fig. 79 -
do not depress the gas pedal when starting the engine!
- Let go of the key as soon as the engine starts.
A cold engine may at first be loud after it has been started. This is
due to the hydraulic valves building up the oil pressure . This normal
and no need for concern.
If the engine does not start immediately, stop trying after 10
seconds and then try to restart the engine about 30 seconds later.
& WARNING
Never start or let the engine run in a confined or enclosed area.
Exhaust fumes from the engine contain carbon monoxide, a color­
less and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can be fatal if inhaled.
• Never leave the engine idling unattended. An unattended
vehicle with a running engine poses a danger of personal injury or
theft.
Controls and equip ­
ment
On the road
0 Note
• Avoid high engine speeds, fast acceleration or heavy engine
loads while the engine is still cold. This could damage the engine.
• The engine cannot be started by pushing or towing the vehicle.
~ For the sake of the environment
To avoid unnecessary engine wear and to reduce exhaust emis­
sions, do not let your vehicle stand and warm up. Be ready to drive
off immediately after starting your vehicle. Maintain moderate
speed until the engine is completely warm. Remember, the engine
performs best at operating temperature. •
Stopping the engine
-Turn the ignition key to position G) ~ page 92, fig. 79.
& WARNING
• Never turn off the engine until the vehicle has come to a
complete stop.
• The brake booster and servotronic only work when the engine
is running. With the ignition turned off, you have to apply more
force when steering or braking. Since you cannot steer and stop
normally, this can lead to accidents and serious injuries.
• The radiator fan can continue to run for up to 10 minutes even
after you have turned off the engine and removed the ignition key.
The radiator fan can also turn on again if the engine coolant heats
up because of intense sunlight or heat build-up
in the engine
compartment. .,
