Opening and closing
Central locking
General description
The power locking system locks or unlocks all
doors and the rear lid simultaneously.
You can lock and unlock the vehicle centrally. You
have the following choices:
- Remote master key¢
page 29,
- Sensors in the front door handle on vehicles
with convenience key *
¢ page 30,
-Power locking switch insid e¢ page 31, oder
- Lock cylinder at the driver's door~
page 32.
Automatic locking
The automatic locking feature locks all the vehi­ cle doors and the rear lid when you drive faster
than
9 mph (15 km/h) .
The car is un locked again once the ignition key is
removed. In addition, the vehicle can be unlocked
if the opening function in the power locking sys­
tem switch or at one of the door levers is actuat ­
ed.
Addit ionally, in the event of a crash with airbag
deployment the doors are automatically un­
locked to allow access to the veh icle .
Selective unlocking
When you lock the vehicle, the power locking sys­
tem will lock the doors and the rear lid. When
unlocking, you can set in the rad io or MMI*
whether
only the driver's door or the entire vehi­
cle should be un locked ¢
page 31 .
Anti-theft alarm warning system
If the anti-theft alarm warn ing system detects a
break-in into the vehicle, acoustic and visua l
warn ing s ignals are triggered .
The anti-theft alarm system turns on automati­
cally when you lock the vehicle. It deactivates
when unlocking using the remote control key or
~ by touc hing the sensor on the door handle (con-
ci ~ venience key).
Opening and closing
To switch the alarm off, p ress the@ button on
the remote contro l key or convenience key or
switch the ign ition on. The alarm also stops auto­
matically after a certa in amount of t ime.
You can also trigger the alarm by pressing the
PANIC button on your remote-control key. This
will a lert other people in case of emergency .
Press the
PANIC button again to turn off the
alarm.
Turn signals
When you unlock the vehicle, the turn signals
flash twice, when you lock it once . If they do not
flash, one of the doors or the luggage compart­
ment lid is not locked, the ign ition is still switch­
ed on or the selector lever is not in position
P.
Unintentionally locking yourself out
In the following cases there are safeguards to
prevent you from locking your remote master key
in the veh icle:
- The vehicle does not lock with the central lock­
ing switch if the driver's door is open
¢page 31.
-On vehicles with convenience key*, if the most
recent ly used master key is in the luggage com­
partment, the rear lid is automatically unlocked
aga in after it is closed.
Do not lock your veh icle with the remote master
key or convenience key* until all doors and the
rear lid are closed. In this way yo u avoid locking
yourself out acc identally.
A WARNING
-- When you leave the vehicle, always remove
the ignition key and take it with you . This
will prevent passengers (children, for exam­
p le ) from accidenta lly being locked in the
veh icle should they accidentally press the
power locking switch in the front doors.
- Do not leave children inside the vehicle un­
supervised. In an emergency it would be im­
possible to open the doors from the outside
without the key. .,.

(D Tips
- In the event of a crash with airbag deploy­
ment all locked doors will be automat ica lly
unlocked to give access to the vehicle occu­
pants from the outside.

funct ion, you can lock the driver's door us­
ing the ignit ion key

can still open the fuel tank flap in an emer­
gency ¢
page 176.
-You are well adv ised not to keep valuables
i nside an unattended vehicle, vis ible or not.
Even a properly locked vehicle cannot pro ­
v ide the secur ity of a safe .
- If the LED in the upper edge of the driver's
door panel comes on for about 30 seconds
after the vehicle is locked, there is a mal­
funct ion in the power lock ing o r the anti­
theft warning system. Have the malfunct ion
correc ted by an authorized Audi dea lership
or q ualified repair facility .
