[A4] Considering to buy A3, but how about the temperature?

[Quincy Chiang]

Yep, all >'99.5 cars have the revised climate control system with the "off" button.

Btw, I don't think turning on the compressor by switch to recirculating mode during winter will blow cold air.  The A/C system in that case works to defog the interior but it should still blow warm air.
