Turn signals
When you unlock the vehicle, the turn signals
flash twice. When you lock the vehicle , the
turn signals flash once. If they do not flash,
one of the doors, the rear lid or the hood is
not locked.
Unintentionally locking yourself out
In the following cases there safeguards to
prevent you locking your remote master key in
the vehicle:
- The vehicle does not lock with the power
locking switch ¢
page 42 if the driver's
door is open.
- On vehicles with Convenience key* , if the
most recently used master key is in the lug­
gage compartment, the rear lid is automati­
cally unlocked again after it is closed.
Do not lock your vehicle with the
remote mas­
ter key or Convenience key*
until all doors
and the rear lid are closed. In this way you
avoid locking yourself out accidentally.
A WARNING
- When you leave the vehicle, always re­
move the ignition key and take it with
you. This will prevent passengers (chil­
dren, for example) from accidentally be­
ing locked in the vehicle should they acci­
dentally press the power locking switch
in the front doors .
- Do not leave children inside the vehicle
unsupervised . In an emergency it would
be impossible to open the doors from
the outside without the key.
@ Tips
- In the event of a crash with airbag de ­
ployment all locked doors will be auto­
matically unlocked to give access to the
vehicle occupants from the outside .
-If the power locking system should mal­
function, you can lock the driver's door
using the mechanical key ¢

- If the power locking system should fail,
you can still open the fuel tank flap in an
emergency ¢
page 22 7.
- You are well advised not to keep valua­
bles inside an unattended vehicle, visible
or not. Even a properly locked vehicle
cannot provide the security of a safe.
- If the LED in the upper edge of the driv­
er's door panel comes on for about
30
seconds after the vehicle is locked, there
is a malfunction in the power locking or
the anti-theft warning system . Have the
malfunction corrected by an authorized
Audi dealership or qualified repair facili­
ty.
