Never drive until the tank is completely emp­
ty. The irregular supply of fuel that results
from that can cause engine misfires . Uncom­
busted fuel will then enter the exhaust sys­
tem. This can cause overheating and damage
to the catalytic converter .
Indicator lights
Description
The indicator lights in the instrument cluster
blink or turn on. They indicate functions or mal­
functions.
With some indicator lights, messages may ap­pear and warning signals may sound. The indica­

using the multifunction steering wheel
c;, page 19. If there are several malfunct ions,
you can display them one at a time using the
thumbwheel.
Some ind icator lights in the display can display in
several colors .
Overview
Some indicator lights turn on briefly as a function
check whe n you switch the ign ition on . These sys­
tems are marked with a

Opening and closing
Central locking
Description
You can lock and u nlock the veh icle centrally. You
have the following options:
- Remote control key
c::> page 26,
-Sensors in the door handles* c::> page 27,
- Lock cylinder on the driver 's door c::> page 29,
o r
- Central locking switch inside
c::> page 28.
Auto Lo ck
The A uto Lock f unct ion locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has ex­
ceeded approx imately 9 mph (1S km/h) .
The vehicle can be unlocked if the openi ng func­
tion in the centra l locking system sw itch is used
or one of the door handles is pulled. The A uto
L ock function can be switched on and off in the
Infotainment system
c::> page 28.
I n t he event of a crash with a irbag deployment ,
t he doors will a lso automat ically unlock to allow
access to the veh icle .
Selective unlocking
The doors and luggage compartment lid w ill lock
when they close. You can set in the Infotainment
system whether
only the driver's door or the en­
tire veh icle should be unlocked when unlocking
c::> page 28 .
Turn signals
The turn s ignals flash tw ice when you unlock the
veh icle and flash once when you lock the vehicle .
I f the bli nking continues, one of the doo rs or the
luggage compartment lid is not closed or the ig­
nition is still switched on .
Unintentionally locking yourself out
The follow ing cond itions prevent you from lock­
ing your remo te contro l key in the vehicle :
- If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked by pressing the
I@ button on the re-
24
mote contro l key or touching the locking sen ­
sor* on a door.
- When lock ing using the
Im button in the central
locking switch, the vehicle will not lock if a door
is open
c::> page 28 .
-On veh icles with a convenience key *, the lug­
gage compartment lid unlocks again after clos­
ing if the most recent ly used key is in the lug ­
gage compartment. The emergency f lashers
blink four times.
Do not lock your vehicle with the remote cont rol
key or convenience key* until all doors and the
l uggage compartment lid are closed. This helps
to prevent you from locking yourself out acciden­
tally .
¢j) Tips
- Do not leave va luables unattended in the ve­
hicle. A locked veh icle is not a safe!
- The LED in the driver's door rail blinks 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 au tho rized Aud i
Service Facili ty.

control panel
1. Switch on the ignition.
2. Press both of the outside buttons on the con ­
trol unit ¢
page 32, fig. 26 until the yellow

the other buttons as needed .
(D Tips
-The ro lling code can be programmed more
quickly and more easily with the help of a
