App lies to veh icles: w ith De luxe automatic climate control plus
Description
The air conditioner is fully automatic and is designed to
maintain a comfortable and uniform climate inside the
vehicle.
We recommend the following settings:
- Set the temperature to 75 °F (+23 °C).
- Press the
[AUTO) button.
With this setting, you attain maximum comfort in the least amount
of time. Change this setting, as desired, to meet your personal needs.
Controls and equip­
ment Safety first
The climate controls are a combination
of heating, ventilation and
coo ling systems, which automatically red uce humidity and cool the
air inside your vehicle .
The climate control automatically maintains a temperature once it
has been set. The temperature of the air from the vents, fan speed
(air volume) and air distribution are also automatically adjusted. The
system a lso takes into account strong sunsh ine so that man ual
adjustment is not necessary. So in almost all cases,
automa tic mo de
offers the best condit ions for the comfort of the occupants at all
times of the year~
page 104.
Please note the following:
T urn on the a ir cond itioner to reduce humidity in the vehicle. This also
prevents the windows from fogging up.
When the outside temperature is high and the air is very humid,
condensati on from the evaporator may drip under the vehicle. This is
normal and does not indicate a leak .
If the outside temperature is low, the fan normally only switches to a
higher speed once the engine coolant has warmed up sufficiently.
T he air conditioner temporari ly switches off when you drive off from
a standstill using full throttle to save engine power.
T he compressor also switches off if the coolant temperature is too
high, so that the engine can be adequately cooled under extreme
loads.
Du st a nd p ollen filt er
The dust and pollen filter (a combined particle fi lter and activated
charcoal filter) reduces or prevents outside a ir po llution (dust, or
pollen) from entering the vehicle.
T he dust and pollen filter must be changed at the intervals specified
in your Maintenance booklet, so that the air conditioner can properly
work.
If you drive your vehicle in an area with a high degree of air pollution,
the filter may need to be changed more frequently than specified in .,.

Energy management
To prevent the battery from being discharged and to restore the
balance of energy, components wh ic h require large amo unts of
energy are temporarily cut back or sw itched off=>
page 243. Heating
systems in part icu lar req uire a g rea t dea l of energy. If you notice, for
example, that the rear window heater is not heating, then it has been
temporar ily c ut back or switched off by
ene rg y management. These
systems are available again as soon as the energy balance has been
restored .
& WARNING
Reduce d vi sibility is danger ous and can cause a ccident s.
• For safe dri ving it is very important that all windows be free of
ic e, snow and condensation .
• Completely fam iliar ize yourself with the prope r use and func­
tion of th e heating and v entilation sy stem and esp eciall y how to
defog and defro st the w indows .
• Never use the wind shield wiper /wa sher system in fr eezing

0 Note
• If you suspect that the cl imate contro l system has been damaged,
switch the system off to avoid further damages, and have i t inspected
by a qua lified dealersh ip. •
Repairs to the Audi a ir conditioner require special techn ica l knowl­
edge and special tools . Co ntact an a uth orized Audi dealer fo r assis­
tance .
(I] Tips
• To avoid adversely affecting heating and cooling performance and
to prevent condensation on the windows, the air intake in front of the
w indshield must be free of ice, snow and leaves.
• Th e air flowing out of the vents and througho ut the veh icle's
entire inter ior is discharged at the rea r of the vehicle . Make su re that
the o utlet s lots are not covered by clothing, etc.
• Climate control works most effective ly if the windows and the
panoramic sliding/tilt ing sunroof * are closed. However, if the interior
of a parked vehicle is extremely hot from the sun, briefly opening the
windows can speed up the cooling process. •

(I] Tips
If the climate control is running in cooling mode, air flows mainly
from vents @ and @. To achieve adequate cooling, you should never
close these vents completely. •
Applies to vehicles: with Deluxe automatic cl imate control plus
Rear air vents
The rear air vents are located in the center console.
- Rotate the thumbwheel to open and close the vents .
- To adjust the direction of the airflow from the outlet,
move the tab in the center of the outlet in the desired
direction . The direction of the air delivered from the vents
can be adjusted horizontally and vertically.
The air vents are actuated either automatically or manually
depending on the operating mode selected. Heated or unheated
fresh air, or cooled air flows from the vents .
The air vents to heat the rear footwell are located under the front
seats.
(I] Tips
If the climate control is operating in cooling mode, air flows primarily
from the vents in the center console. To achieve adequate cooling,
you should never close these vents completely. •

Economical use of the climate control
system
Economical use of the climate control system helps save
fuel.
When the climate control system is working in cooling mode,
engine performance is reduced and fuel consumption is
affected. To keep the time the climate control system is on as
short as possible, you should do the following:
- To save fuel, turn off cooling mode by pressing the AC
button (indicator light goes out).
- In addition, if you open the window or the panoramic
sliding/tilting sunroof* while driving, turn off cooling
mode by pressing the AC button (indicator light goes out).
- If the vehicle is extremely hot due to the heat of the sun,
briefly open doors and windows.
