Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with
the interior temperature.
However, the blower stages can be manually adapted to suit your particular
needs.
›
Repeatedly pressing the symbol button
on the left or right reduces or in-
creases blower speed.
If the blower is switched off, the Climatronic system is switched off.

WARNING
■
“Stale air” may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce atten-
tion levels and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an ac-
cident increases.
■
Do not switch off the Climatronic system for longer than necessary.

Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)
Introduction

Radio remote control 118
Conditions for the functioning of auxiliary heating (Aux. heating and ventila-
tion), hereinafter referred to only as auxiliary heating (Aux. heating).
The charge state of the vehicle battery is sufficient.
The fuel supply is adequate (the warning icon
is not lit in the display of
the instrument cluster).
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by
switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).
Auxiliary heating (aux. heating)
The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) can be used when stationary, when the
engine is switched off to preheat the vehicle and while driving (e.g. during the
heating phase of the engine).
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the air-
conditioning system or Climatronic.
The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) also warms up the engine. This is not valid
for vehicles with the 3.6 l/191 kW FSI engine.
The auxiliary heating (parking heating) warms up the coolant by combusting
fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant heats air flowing into the passenger
compartment (as long as the blower fan speed
