On-Board Diagnostics
F ig. 4 Loc ation of D ata Link Connector (OLC)
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components
of your emission control system. Eac h monitored
component in your engine system has been as­
signed a code . In case of a ma lfunction, the com­
ponent w ill be identified and the fa ult stored as a
code in the control module memory.
The MIL light may also ill uminate if there is a
leak in the on-board fuel vapor recovery system .

In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stor­
ed data can only b e display ed using special diag­
nostic equipment (gener ic scan tool for OBD) .
In order to connect the special d iagnost ic equip­
ment, push the plug into the Data Link Connector
(DLC). The DLC is located to the right of the hood
release
~ fig. 4.
Your a utho rized Aud i dea ler or a qua lified service

Warm and cold Climate control system
Description
The climate control system warms, cools and re­
moves humidity from the air in the vehicle interi­
or. It functions most effectively when the w in­
dows are closed. If there is a build-up of heat in ­
side the vehicle, ventilation can help to speed up
the cooling process.
Pollutant filter
The pollutant filter removes pollutants such as
dust and pollen from the air.
Key recognition
Certain settings are automatically stored and as­
signed to the remote contro l key being used .
A WARNING
Poor visibility can lead to accidents.
- For safer driving, keep all windows free of
ice, snow and fog.
- Become familiar as quickly as possible with
the correct use and function of the climate
control system, especially with the defrost­
ing and defogging function.
- When the temperature is below freezing,
only use the windshield washer system after
the windsh ield has been warmed by the cli­
mate control system. The washer fluid could
freeze on the windshield and impair visibili­
ty .
(D Note
-If you suspect that the climate control sys­
tem is damaged, switch the system off to
Warm and cold
prevent further damage and have it checked
by an authorized Audi dea ler or authorized
Audi Service Facility.
- Repairs to the Audi climate control system
require special technical know ledge and
special tools. See an authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility.
(® For the sake of the environment
Reducing the amount of fuel used also re­
duces the amount of pollutants that enter the
air.
(D Tips
- To prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to prevent the win­
dows from fogging over, the air intake in
front of the windshield must be free of ice,
snow or leaves.
- Condensation from the cooling system can
drip and form a puddle of water under the
vehicle. This is normal and does not mean
there is a leak .
- The energy management system may switch
the seat heating* or rear window defroster
off temporarily . These systems are availab le
aga in as soon as the energy supp ly has been
restored.
- The flows through the vents under the rear
w indow . Make s ure the openings are not
covered when plac ing clothing on the lug­
gage compartment cover .
