Central locking
Description
You can lock and unlock the vehicle centrally . You
have the following options:
- Remote control key <=>
page 24,
-Sensors in the door handles" <=> page 24,
-Inner central locking switch <=>page 25, or
- Lock cylinder on the driver's door<=>
page 26.
Turn signals
The turn s ignals flash twice when you unlock the
veh icle and flash once when you lock the vehicle.
If they do not flash, then the ignition may still be
sw itched on, or one of the doors or the luggage
compa rtment lid may be open, fo r example.
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has ex ­
ceeded approx imately 9 mph (15 km/h).
The vehicle will unlock again if the ignition key* is
removed, the opening function from the central
locking switch is activated, or one of the door
handles is operated .
In the event of a crash with airbag deployment,
the doors will also automatically unlock to allow
access to the vehicle.
Selective door unlocking
The doors and luggage compartment lid wi ll lock
when they close. You can set in the Infotainment
system if
only the driver's door or the entire vehi­
cle should unlock when unlocking<=>
page 26,
Setting the central locking system .
Unintentionally locking yourself out
Only lock your vehicle when all of the doors and
the luggage compartment lid are closed and the
remote control key is not in the vehicle. This
helps to prevent you from locking yourself out
accidentally .
The fo llow ing conditions prevent you from lock­
ing your remote control key in the vehicle :
22
-If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked by pressing the
!'.II button on the re­
mote contro l key or by touching the locking
sensor* on a door .
- If the most recently used convenience key* is in
the luggage compartment, the luggage com­
partment lid automatically unlocks again after
closing it<=>
page 2 7. The emergency flashers
blink four t imes.
- If the convenience key* that was last used is de­
tected inside the veh icle, then the vehicle will
not be able to lock from the outside .
A WARNING
-Always take the key with you when leaving
your vehicle, even if for a short pe riod of
time. This applies particularly when children
remain in the vehicle. Otherwise, children
could start the engine or operate electrical
equipment (such as power windows), which increases the risk of an accident.
- No one, especially children, should stay in
the vehicle when it is locked from the out­
side, because the windows can no longer be
opened from the inside <=>
page 2 7. Locked
doors make it more difficult for emergency
workers to get into the vehicle, which puts
lives at r isk .
A WARNING
Appl ies to: ve hicles with ignition loc k
Do not remove the key from the ignition lock
until the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
Otherwise, the steering lock could engage
suddenly and increase the risk of an accident.
(D Tips
-Do not leave va luables unattended in the ve­
hicle. A loc ked vehicle is not a safe!
- The LED in the dr iver's door rail b links when
you lock the vehicle. If the LED lights up for
approximate ly 30 seconds after locking,
there is a malfunction in the centra l locking
system . Have the problem corrected by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Aud i
Service Facility.

@ -Windshield wipers off
(D -Interval mode. To increase/decrease the wip­
er intervals, move the switch @ to the left/right.
In vehicles with a rain sensor *, the wipers turn on
in the rain once the vehicle speed exceeds ap­
proximate ly 2 mph (4 km/h). The higher the sen­
sitivity of the rain sensor that is set (switch ® to
the right), the earlier the windshield w ipers react
to mo isture on the windshield .
@-Slow wiping
@-Fast wiping
©-Sing le w ipe. If yo u hold the leve r in this posi­
tion longer, t he wipers sw itch from s low w iping
to fast wiping.
® -Clean the windshield . The wipe rs wipe one
time afte r several seconds of dr iv ing to remove
water drop lets . You can swi tch this func tion off
by moving the lever to position ® within 10 sec­
onds of the afterwipe . The afterwipe function is
38
reactivated the next time you switch the ignit ion
on .
®-Wipe the rear w indow. The rear w iper moves
about every 6 seco nds.
0 -Clean the rear window . The number of wipes
depends on how long the lever is held in pos it ion
(i) .
& WARNING
-The rain sensor is on ly intended to ass is t th e
driver . The driver may still be responsible
for manually switch ing the wipers on based
on visibility conditions .
- Th e windsh ield may not be treated with wa­
ter-repelling windshield coating agents . Un­
favorable conditions, such as wetness, dark­
ness or low sun, can result in i ncreased
glare, which increases the risk of an acci­
dent. Wiper blade chatter is also possible.
- Properly functioning windshield wiper
blades are required for a clea r view and safe
driving
~ page 39, Replacing windshield
wiper blades .
(D Note
-If there is frost, make sure the windshield
wiper blades are not frozen to the wind­
shield . Swi tching on the w indshield w ipers
when the b lades are frozen to the win d­
shield can damage the w iper blades.
- Th e windsh ie ld w iper system must be
switche d off (lever in posi tion
@ ) before us­
ing a ca r wash. This prevents the w ipers
from swit ching o n uni ntent iona lly an d caus­
ing damage to the winds hield wiper sys tem .
{I) Tips
- The wind shie ld w ipers sw itch off when the
ign ition is swi tched off. You can activa te t he
w indshield wipe rs a fter the ignition is
switched back on by moving the windshield
wiper lever to any position.
- Worn or dirty windshie ld wiper blades resu lt
in streaking . This can affect the rain sensor*
function. Check your windshield wiper blades regula rly. ..,.

the climate control system runs continuously at
maximum cooling or heating power. There is no
temperature regulation.
Synchronization : by pressing the AUTO button
for two seconds, the temperature setting for the

er's side. This applies a temperature change to
the front passenger's side.
Be Blower
Using the regulator 8ft, you can manually adjust
the volume of air generated by the blower to your
preference.
Use the left
8ft butto n to decrease the air speed,
and use the right
8ft button to increase the air
speed .
The blower should always run at a low setting to
prevent the windows from fogging and to ensure
a continuous exchange of a ir inside the vehicle.
To have the airflow regulated automatically,
press the AU TO button.

To keep the front s ide windows from fogging up
in damp weathe r, we recommend opening the
side air vents and tilting them to the side.
~ MAX Defrosting
The windshield and side windows are defrosted
or cleared of condensation as quickly as possible.
The maximum amount of air flows mainly from
the vents below the windshie ld. Recirculation
