Heater/AC
Significant advantages in comparison with
vehicles without solar roof are:
– lowered temperature level in vehicles
parked in the sun (see chart),
– increased efficiency of the air conditioner
as the interior temperature set is achieved
more quickly,
– despite the reduced output of the system
during the winter, an air-drying effect
occurs which effectively dehumidifies the
vehicle, reducing fogging of the windows.
Solar roof
For the first time, the A4 can optionally be
equipped with the solar roof previously used
in the A8 and A6.
The fresh air blower is continually driven by
electricity obtained from solar radiation.
The output is proportional to the intensity of
the sunlight.
Modifications to the familiar models:
– Re-engineered fresh air blower
– The DC/DC transformer has been discontin-
ued, its function is now performed by the
fresh air blower control unit J126.
