Climate Control -> Stationary air conditioning for Your Volkswagen ID.5 SUV First Generation (2021-2025)

With the stationary air conditioning, the vehicle interior can be cooled, ventilated or heated when stationary. In winter, operation of  
the system allows ice, condensation and a thin covering of snow to be cleared from the windscreen. The stationary air conditioning is  
supplied with power via the main socket or via the vehicle’s high-voltage battery.  
The stationary air conditioning system can be programmed and managed in the Infotainment system or via an app on your mobile  
telephone.  
Information about the app, the requirements for use and availability, and about compatible end devices is available on the internet .  
NOTICE  
Foodstuffs, medicines and objects that are sensitive to heat or cold can be damaged or made unusable by the air flowing out of the  
vents.  
Never leave food, medicines or other temperature-sensitive objects in front of the vents.  
The range of the vehicle will be reduced if you operate the stationary air conditioning without a connected charging cable. At  
extreme outside temperatures, the heating or cooling output of the stationary air conditioning may not be sufficient to achieve  
the set desired temperature.  
The stationary air conditioning can be operated when the charging connector is not plugged in. When the charging connector is not  
inserted, the stationary air conditioning will be supplied with energy from the high-voltage battery.  
The stationary air conditioning only functions with the charging connector unplugged if the high-voltage battery is sufficiently  
charged. The stationary air conditioning will not start if the charge level of the high-voltage battery on the digital instrument cluster is  
in the reserve range (→ Charge level display and range).  
Opening the Stationary air conditioning menu in the Infotainment system  
Open the Stationary air conditioning menu in the Infotainment system  
1. Open the app overview in the Infotainment system.  
2. Tap Stationary air conditioning in the app overview.  
Setting desired temperature  
1. Open the Stationary air conditioning menu in the Infotainment system  
2. Tap

Immediate air conditioning of stationary vehicle  
Immediate air conditioning in the air conditioning block of the Infotainment system.

3. To switch off stationary air conditioning manually, tap again in the air conditioning block.  
tap in the air conditioning menu.  
switch off stationary air conditioning via the app on the mobile telephone.  
Alternatively, the vehicle can be air conditioned before a desired departure time (→ Stationary air conditioning).  
If you switch on immediate air conditioning when the ignition is switched on, the vehicle interior is air-conditioned to the  
temperature you have set in the air conditioning block in the Infotainment system.  
The stationary air conditioning switches off automatically  
The stationary air conditioning switches itself off automatically if one of the following conditions is met:  
After around 30 minutes if the vehicle is air conditioned with the ignition switched off.  
After around 15 minutes if the vehicle’s drive system was not activated after a programmed departure time.  
If the charge level of the high-voltage battery is too low .  
Operating noises can be heard if the stationary air conditioning is switched on.  
The stationary air conditioning can be programmed for your planned departure time in the Infotainment system. You can program the  
desired temperature of the vehicle interior for a planned departure time.  
On the basis of the desired temperature, the vehicle calculates the time at which the stationary air conditioning must be switched on in  
order to achieve the desired temperature at the departure time. The maximum running time of the stationary air conditioning before  
the departure time is around 30 minutes.  
Air conditioning the vehicle before departure  
1. Open the Stationary air conditioning menu.  
2. Tap  
3. Set the planned departure time.  
4. Tap  
to open the timer menu.  
.
5. To switch on the timer, activate the checkbox.  
The earliest programmed departure time is shown in the exit menu in the Infotainment system and can be switched on or off  
there (→ Exit menu).  
When the vehicle is locked, the stationary air conditioning can switch on a maximum of five times in succession. This counter is  
reset as soon as you activate the vehicle’s drive system.  
Stationary air conditioning with convenience functions  
If the vehicle is air conditioned before departure, it can also switch on the convenience features automatically depending on the  
outside temperature. The convenience features are switched on automatically no earlier than 10 minutes before the scheduled  
departure time.  
The vehicle can switch on the following equipment-dependent convenience functions automatically before a scheduled departure  
time:  
seat heating.  
Steering wheel heating.  
Exterior mirror heating.  
Rear window heating.  
Windscreen heating.  
If you want the vehicle to switch on the convenience functions automatically before a scheduled departure time, proceed as follows:  
1. Open the Stationary air conditioning menu.  
2. Tap  
.
3. Select the front seats whose convenience functions are to be switched on automatically before a scheduled departure time.  
Only the convenience functions of the selected front seats are switched on automatically before departure.  
4. To switch on the rear window heating automatically before the departure time, for example, switch on the Automatic windscreen  
heating function.  
Air conditioning the vehicle after charging the high-voltage battery  
The vehicle can be air conditioned before a planned departure time if the vehicle’s high-voltage battery is charged with alternating  
current (AC) or direct current (DC). You can adjust this setting in the charging settings in the Infotainment system (→ Timer-controlled  
charging).  
Air conditioning of vehicle after unlocking  
1. Open the Stationary air conditioning menu in the Infotainment system  
2. Tap  
.
3. Activate the Start stationary air conditioning when vehicle is unlocked checkbox.  
As soon as you open a vehicle door, the vehicle is air conditioned for 5 minutes.  
Depending on the equipment, you can set door unlocking to Single door or All doors in the Vehicle settings menu on the  
Infotainment system in vehicles with the keyless locking and starting system Keyless Access (→ Keyless Access). If door  
unlocking is set to Single door, the air conditioning only starts when you open the driver door. If door unlocking is set to All  
doors, the air conditioning starts when you open a vehicle door or the boot lid.  
Checking programming
