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.

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 . ._
