Basic settings
General
The basic climate control settings can be adjusted in the
fv1fv1I.
-Select: Function button I CAR]> Control button AC.
The following functions can be selected:
• Auto recirculate=>
page 118
• Synchronization :::::, page 118
• Supply. heater*=> page 119
• Rear operation*=> page 119•
Automatic recirculation mode
An air quality sensor detects increased concentrations of
pollutants in the outside air and automatically switches
to recirculation mode.
We recommend that you always keep automatic air recirculation ON
to prevent polluted outside air from entering the vehicle inter io r.
If the
air quality sensor located in the air cond it ion ing system detects
polluted outside air, the sensor decides whether the air pollution can
be reduced by the factory-installed pollutant filter or whether it is
necessary to switch to air recirculation. With heavy concentrations of
pollutants, the a ir cond it ion ing system is switched automat ically to
recircu lation mode and the supply of outside air is b locked . As soon
as the concentration of pollutants in the outside air drops , fresh air is
supplied to the vehicle interior again. In the event that the windows fog up during automatic air recircula­
tion, you must press the® button immediately.
Under certa in operating conditions, automatic a ir recirculation is
switched off automatically. With outside temperatures below about
SO °F
(+10 °C), automatic air recirculation is lim ited to 30 seconds.
With outside temperatures below about
30 °F (-1 °() and with the air
conditioner switched off, the automatic air recirculation is limited to
15 seconds. •
Synchronization

With synchronization active, the driver's settings are adopted for the

& WARNING
Improper use of steering wheel adjustment and improper seating
position can cause serious personal injury.
• Adjust the steering wheel column only when the vehicle is not
moving to prevent loss of vehicle control.
• Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so that there is a
minimum of 10 inches (25 cm ) between your chest and the
s teering wheel=>
page 190, fig. 183. If you cannot maintain this
minimum distance , the airbag system cannot protect you prop­
erly .
• If physical limitations prevent you from sitting 10 inches (25
cm ) or more from the steering wheel, check with your authorized
Audi dealer to see if adaptive equipment is available.
• If the steering wheel is aligned with your face , the supple­
mental driver's airbag cannot provide as much protection in an
accident. Always make sure that the steering wheel i s al igned with
your chest.
• Always hold the ste ering wheel with your hands at the 9 o'clock
and 3 o'clock positions to reduce the risk of personal injury if the
driver' s airbag deploys .
• Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o 'clock position or with
your hands inside the steering wheel rim or on the steering whe el
hub. Holding the steering wheel the wrong way can cause serious
injuries to the hands, arms and head if the driver's airbag
deploys .•
