@ Key fob with vehicle code*
You can reveal the vehicle code* on the key fob by
rubbing off the coating. It is not, however, rele­
vant for this vehicle.
Replacing a key
If you should lose a key, please contact an Audi
dealer. Have the remote control coding for that
key deactivated. For this purpose you should
bring all available keys with you. It is also impor­
tant to notify your insurance company if a key has
been lost.
Number of keys
You can check how many keys are initialised for
your vehicle using the infotainment system. To
do so, select: I MENU I button >Car> left control
button > Servicing & checks > Car information.
This feature enables used car buyers to make
sure they have received all of the keys.
Electronic immobiliser
The immobiliser is designed to prevent unauthor­
ised persons from driving the vehicle.
It may not be possible to start the engine with
the key if there is another remote control key
from a different make of vehicle on the same key
ring.
Data stored on remote control key
Data related to the service and maintenance of
the vehicle are stored continuously on your re­
mote control key while you are driving. Your Audi
dealer can read out the data and will then be able
to tell you what service work is required. This also
applies to vehicles with convenience key*.
Personal convenience settings
If two people use the same car regularly, it is a
good idea for each person to have his or her
"own" remote control key. When you switch off
the ignition or lock the vehicle, your personal set­
tings for the following convenience features are
stored and assigned to the remote control key:
- Air conditioner
- Parking aid*
- Active lane assist*
28 -
Side assist*
- Drive select
The stored settings are then recalled automati­
cally the next time the vehicle is unlocked, the
doors are opened or the ignition is switched on.
A WARNING
Always take the key with you when leaving the
vehicle -even if you only intend to be gone for
a short time. This is especially important if
children are left in the car. They might other­
wise be able to start the engine or use power­
operated equipment such as the electric win­
dows -this could lead to injuries.
.
1 Note
The function of the remote control key may
be impaired by interference from other near­
by radio signals (for example from a mobile
telephone or TV transmitter) if these are in
the same frequency range. You should always
check that your vehicle is locked.

CX) Soft
top (folding roof)
Soft top
General notes
The soft top opens and closes automatically.
When the top opens, it folds away completely in­
to the storage box. The soft top can be opened or
closed at a speed of up to SO km/h.
In normal conditions the soft top is windproof
and waterproof. In extremely bad weather (such
as torrential or continuous rain), a few droplets
of water may possibly form inside the car. This is
quite normal, and no cause for concern.
To preserve the appearance of the soft top and
keep it waterproof, please follow the instructions
for cleaning and care ¢page 263, Care of vehi­
cle and cleaning. You should also note the fol­
lowing points:
- Open and stow the soft top only when it is
clean and dry. Pressure creases can form if the
soft top is stowed when damp, and mildew or
other damage can occur if left for long periods.
To avoid scratching or damaging the soft top,
do not use sharp objects to remove ice and
snow. A normal ice scraper can be used to clear
the rear window.
- Do not leave the soft top open for weeks at a
time to prevent any discolouration in the folds
of the fabric.
- Do not open the soft top at temperatures be­
low O 0
C. The fabric loses its elasticity at sub­
zero temperatures.

- When operating the soft top make sure that
external factors, e.g. wind, do not affect the
function of the soft top and do not incon­
venience or endanger other road users.
- Never drive with the soft top not correctly
locked in place. There is a danger that the
fabric could be caught by the airstream and
blown open. This could cause an accident,
possibly resulting in personal injury or dam­
age to the car.
- When opening and closing the soft top,
make sure there is no risk of injury from the
moving parts of the frame, etc.
- Since the rearward view is obstructed while
the soft top is opening or closing, you
should avoid operating the soft top when re­
versing.
CD CAUTION
- To prevent damage to the soft top:
- Do not put any items in the soft top stor-
age box.
