driven since you last reset the odometer back to zero . You can use
this odometer when you want to keep track of how many miles (kilo ­

cates 1/10 of a mile (100 metres). You can set the trip odometer back
to zero by pressing the reset button::::,

®
The key set for your vehicle includes:
Fig. 22 Key set
@ two master keys (press the release button => page 37,
fig. 23 to fold and unfold the master key)
@ one valet key
@ Master key with remote control
You can centrally lock and unlock your vehicle and start the engine
with the master key with remote control. The rear lid can be
unlocked with the remote control unlock button
c;:;::::5 on the master
key.
@ Valet key
The valet key fits only the driver's door and the ignition lock. If you
have to leave the key with somebody else, you are well -advised to
turn over the valet key only.
Be aware that the rear lid can be opened from inside the vehicle with
the remote rear lid release
c;:;::::5 located in the driver's door.
Key replacement
If you lose a key, contact your authorized Audi dealer immediately
to have the
lost key disabled. Be sure to bring all your keys with you.
Registered keys
You can check to find out how many remote keys have been regis­
tered to your vehicle . Therefore, when buying a used vehicle, make
sure to get all of the remote keys that belong to it.
Calling up the registered remote keys=>
page 23.
An example of a possible display: 3/2. The first digit indicates how
many keys have been coded for your vehicle . The second digit indi­
cates the current number of remote keys that are registered . For our
example, this would mean that
2 keys have been enabled for your
vehicle, and that, for example, one key has been lost.
If one key has been lost, contact an authorized Audi dealership to
have the function locked for
this key. Also inform your insurance
company that this key is lost.
& WARNING
• Do not leave your vehicle unattended with the key in the igni­
tion lock . Entry by unauthorized persons could endanger you or
result in theft or damage the vehicle. Always lock all doors and
take the key.
• Do not leave children unattended
in the vehicle, especially with
access to vehicle keys . Unguarded access to the keys provides
children the opportunity to start the engine and/or activate vehicle
systems such as the power windows . Unsupervised operation of
any vehicle system by children can result in serious injury . ._

[ i J Tips
• If you open the driver's door with the key left in the ignition lock,
a chime will sound. This is your reminder to remove the key and lock
the door.
• For security reasons, replacement keys are only available from
authorized Audi dealers. •
Master key with remote control
The remote control allows you to Jock or unlock the
vehicle electronically.
Fig . 23 Fold-up master
key with remote
control

button
~ fig. 23.
The transmitter and battery are located in the head of the remote
control. The receiver is located inside the vehicle. The maximum
effective range depends on several things. Remember, if the battery
is weak, the effective range decreases.
If you need to replace the remote control, or if you need to have it
repaired, you must see your authorized Audi dealer. Only then can
you use the key again.

@andthecover @carefully
with a coin.

sign on the battery faces down. Correct polarity is shown
on the cover.
- Place the cover with the new battery on the key base and
press both parts together.
For the sake of the environment
Dispose of dead batteries properly so as not to pollute the environ ­
ment.
[ i ] Tips
The replacement battery must be the same specification as the
original. •
Electronic immobilizer
The immobilizer prevents your vehicle from being started
by unauthorized persons.
A computer chip inside your key automatically deactivates the elec ­
tronic immobilizer when you insert the key in the ignition lock .
When you remove the key from the ignition lock, the electronic
immobilizer is automatically activated once again .
If an unauthorized key was used,
SAFE is displayed continuously in
the odometer display field.
[ i ] Tips
• Your engine can only be started using the factory -equipped key.
• You may not be abl e to s tart your vehicle if an ignition key of a
different vehicle make is also located on your set of keys.
