-Some of the equipment or features
shown in the general illustration may be
standard equipment on your vehicle or
may be optional eq uipment depending
on your model. Always ask your author­
ized Audi dealer if you have a quest ion
about your vehicle.
- Operation of the Multi Media Interface
(MMI) is described in a separate manual.

(D Note
To avoid damage to the heating elements in the seats, do not kneel on the seats or
place heavy loads on a small area of the
seat.
(D Tips
The seat heating only works when the seat
detects body weight on it. Placing objects
on the seat could create enough weight to
switch seat heating on.
Setup
The basic climate control settings can be ad­
justed in the radio or MM!* .
.. Se lect: I CARI funct ion button> A/C control
button. Or
.. Se lect:
I CARI function button > Car sys-
tems *
control button > AC.
Automatic recirculation*
When switched on, automatic recirculation
controls the recirculation mode automat ica lly.
If the windows fog up, press the
l FRONTI
button.
Synchronization*
When synchronization is switched on, the
same settings are applied to both the driver
and front passenger, except for the seat heat­
ing/ventilation*. Synchroni zation switches off
when you adjust the settings on the front pas­
senger's side.
You can also switch synchronization on by pressing and holding the knob on the driver's
side.
Supplementary heater
The supplementary heater warms the interior
of vehicles with flexible fue l engines more
quickly . The supplementary heater is control­
led automatically in the
Auto setting.
Warm and cold 7 3
Upper cabin heating
Applies to vehicles: with upper cabin heating
Fig. 85 Driver 's seat: ve nt for upper cabin heating
Fig. 86 Driver's seat: upper cabin heating button
I (I) m
The upper cabin area of the front seats can be
heated at three levels when the engine is run­
ning.
.. Press the~ button to switch the upper cab­
in heating on. The LED illuminates.
.. Press the~ button repeatedly until the LED
goes out to switch the upper cabin heating
off.
A WARNING
-
The output from the upper cabin heating
system may be very hot temporarily if the
air vents in the seats
r::!;>fig. 85 are cove red
by cloth ing or other objects when the sys­
tem is switched on. This can cause burns
on unprotected skin exposed direct ly to
the vents .
{!) Tips
-Upper cabin heating always switches on
at the highest level. You can red uce the
heat output with the~ button and in­
crease it with the~ button as needed.

Programming the transmitter (version
B)
Applies to vehicles: with Horne link
Fig. 131 D istance between t he rad ia tor grill e and t he
hand transmitte r
Programming: phase 1 on the control unit
1. Sw itch on the ig nit io n (d o n ot start the
e ngine ).
2. P ress and hold bot h of the outer Home­
Link buttons
r=> fig. 129 until the LED @
turns off complete ly (about
20 seconds).
This procedure clea rs the standard c odes
that were set at the factory and does
not
n eed to be repeated aga in to program the
other b uttons.
3. Briefly press the Homelink button that
you would like to prog ram .
4 . Wai t until the LED@ beg ins to blink
q ui ckly. The Home Lin k modu le wi ll now
remai n in learning mode for
5 minutes .
5. Now stand in front of your vehicle with
the original hand transmitter for the ga­ rage door opener o r for the device that
you would like to allocate to the Home­
Link button.
Programming: pha se 2 on the radiator
grille
6 . Hold the o rig inal hand transmitter some­
what towa rds the center o f you r vehicle 's
radiato r gr ille r=>
fig. 131.
7. Now activate (p ress) t he hand transmit ­
ter.
8 . Pay a ttention to the t urn sign als for yo ur
vehicle when activating the ha nd trans­
mitter . If t he emergency flashers b link
three times, the programming was suc­
cessful. If the emergency flasher only
bli nks one time, the 5 minute t ime limit
Homelink ® 119
for the adaptat ion has expired or the pro ­
gram ming was unsuccessful. Repeat the
programming from step 3 on the controls
o r se lect another distance from the radia­
tor grille.
9. If the garage door or other devices sti ll
fail to be activated w it h the Homelink
control buttons after p rogramming is
comple ted, it is possib le tha t these sys­
tems might be wor king with a roll ing code
ins tead of the normal fixed code .
A Roll­
ing code programming must be per ­
formed
r=> page 120 .
Program the rema ining tw o b uttons a ccord ing
to the instructions mentioned above . Beg in
similar ly w ith the 3rd step if the program ­
m ing connection was successful for t he first
button .
Remote con trol units fo r garage door opene rs
in Canada are set to stop transmitting radio
frequency signa ls after two seconds . This time
may not be suffic ient for the Homelink sys­
tem to learn the radio frequency signa l. Per­
form all other steps as described above.
Erasing the buttons
.,. Switch o n the ignition (do not start the en­
gi ne).
.,. Press and hold both of the outer buttons
until the LED @tu rns off completely (about
20 seconds) to erase all of the buttons si­
m ultaneously .
.,. Programmed buttons cannot be erased ind i­
vidua lly. Reprogram the buttons if necessa­
ry .
Reprogramming the buttons
.,. Switch on the ignition (do not start the en­
gine) .
.,. To reprogram an individua l butto n, press
and hold the button unt il the L ED@ starts
to f lash quickly (after abo ut ten seconds) .
Release t he bu tton imme dia tely. The Home­
L ink module will now remain in learning
mo de for 5 minutes.
.,. Continue with step 5.

Energy management
Starting ability is optimized
Energy management controls the distribution
of electrical energy and thus optimizes the
availability of electrical energy for starting the engine .
If a vehicle with a conventional energy system
is not driven for a long period of time , the bat­
tery is discharged by idling current consumers
(e.g. immobilizer). In ce rtain c ircumstances it
can result in there being insuff icient ene rgy
avai lab le to start the engine .
Intell igent energy management in your vehi­
cle hand les the d istribution of electrical ener­
gy. Starting ab il ity is markedly improved and
the life of the battery is extended.
Basically, energy management consists of
batt ery di agno sis, idlin g current man ag e­
m ent
and dyn ami c en ergy m anage ment .
Batter y diagnosis
Battery diagnosis continuously determines
the state of the battery . Sensors determ ine
battery vo ltage, battery current and battery
temperature. This dete rm ines the current
state of charge and the powe r of the battery.
Idling curr ent man agement
Idling current management reduces ene rgy
consumption while the vehicle is stand ing .
W ith the ignition switched off, it cont ro ls the
energy supply to the va rious electr ical compo ­
nents . Data from battery diagnosis is consid­
ered.
Depending on the battery's state of charge,
i nd ividua l consumers are gradual ly t urned off
to prevent excess ive d ischarge of the bat tery
and thus maintain starting capability .
Dynamic en ergy management
While the vehicle is being driven, dynamic en­
e rgy management dist ributes the energy gen­
e rated according to the needs of the individu­
a l components.
It reg ulates cons umption, so
that more electrical energy is not being used
Int ellig ent technolog y 185
than is being generated and ensures an opti ­
mal state of charge for the battery.
(0 Tips
- But even energy management canno t
negate the limits of physics . Consider
that the power and life of a battery are
limited .
- If starting ability is threatened, the indi­
cator light (•) appears~
page 17.
What you should know
The highest priority is given to maintaining
starting capability.
T he bat tery is severe ly taxed in short-distance
driving, in city traffic and during the cold time
of year. Ab undant electrical energy is re­
quired, but on ly a little is generated .
It is also
critica l if the engine is not running and electri­
ca l components are turned on . In this in­
stance energy is be ing consumed but none is
being generated .
It is in precisely these situations that you will
notice energy management active ly regulat­
ing the d istribution of energy.
V ehicle stand s for an ex tend ed peri od
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period
of severa l days or weeks, e lectrica l compo­
nents are gradually cut back or switched off.
This reduces energy consumption and ma in­
ta ins start ing capability over a longer period .
Some of the convenience functions may not
operate, such as the interior l ights or the
power seat adjustme nt. The convenience
funct ions w ill be available again when you
swi tch on the ignition and sta rt the eng ine .
With the eng in e turn ed off
If you listen to the radio, for example, w ith
the engine tu rned off or use other MMI func­
tions, the battery is be ing d ischarged.
If starting capability is jeopardized due to en ­
ergy consumption, the following warning ap- pears in the MM I display: ..,.
