Heating/Air Conditioner

Design and operation

The air conditioning system represents a
more advanced version of the concept
employed in the Audi A8 predecessor model
with 2-zone climate control and features fully
automatic regulation.
The following components are new features
as compared to the systems previously fitted
in the Audi A8:
– Humidity sender G355
– Evaporator outflow temperature sender
G263
– Two versions: 2-zone front climate control
with 12 control motors and 4-zone front
and rear climate control with 15 control
motors
– Rear climate control with electric rear
additional heater as additional equipment
("4-zone system") – rear left and rear right
footwell heater element Z42 and Z43
– Second control and display unit with
4-zone climate control, Climatronic control
unit J255, rear Climatronic control and
display unit E265
72
An optional feature for the Audi A8 ´03 is
4-zone climate control, enabling both driver
and all passengers to make individual
settings independently of the climate control
level selected for the other occupants.
– Climate control menu in MMI (Multimedia
Interface) for display of climate control set
values and basic settings
– Front and rear seat heating and seat
ventilation
– Heated windscreen Z2
– Energy management control unit J644
The interaction of these components in
coordination with the entire air conditioning
system forms a control loop and permits
comfortable front and rear climate control to
suit all requirements.
