check regularly that the emergency key is still
present in the remote control key casing.
@ Spare key
This key is intended for temporary use only and
should be used only in an emergency. Keep it in a
safe place and do not carry it on the keyring.
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. Se
lect the following on the infotainment system:
I MENU I
button >Car> left control button > Serv
icing & checks > Initialised keys. This feature en
ables used car buyers to make sure they have re
ceived 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 ignition key from a dif
ferent 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
26 -
Central locking system
-Windows
- Background lighting*
- Parking aid*
- Active lane assist*
- 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.
_& 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.
The function of the remote control key may be
impaired by interference from other nearby
radio signals (for example from a mobile tele
phone or TV transmitter) if these are in the
same frequency range.

Start/stop system
Description
Applies to vehicles: with start/stop system
The start/stop system can help to save fuel and
reduce CO2 emissions. Driving
In start/stop mode, the engine is switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops, e.g. at traf
fic lights. The ignition remains on during this
stop phase. The engine is automatically started
on demand.
The start/stop system is automatically activated
each time you switch on the ignition.
Basic conditions for start/stop mode
- The driver's door must be closed.
- The driver's seat belt must be buckled.
- The bonnet must be closed.
- The vehicle must have been moving at over
4 km/h since the last stop .
.&, WARNING
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary . Otherwise you may not have
the full benefit of the brake servo and power
steering. You may need more strength to
steer and brake the vehicle than you nor
mally would. This would mean a greater risk
of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man
ner.
-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 im
portant if children are left in the car. They
might otherwise be able to start the engine
or use power-operated equipment such as
the electric windows -this could lead to in
juries.
- To avoid injury, make sure that the start/
stop system is switched off before working
in the engine compartment ¢ page 65.
CD CAUTION
Always switch off the start/stop system
¢page 65 before driving through water.

power management
While the vehicle is moving, this function distrib
utes the available power to the various electrical
components and systems according to their re
quirements. The power management ensures
that on-board systems do not consume more
electrical power than the alternator can supply,
and thus maintains the maximum possible bat
tery power Level.
ijJ Note
- The power management system is not able
to overcome the given physical Limits.
Please remember that the power and Life of
the battery are Limited.
- If the indicator Lamp ril c:> page 13 appears,
the starting ability may be impaired.
Points to remember
Starting ability has first priority.
Short trips, city traffic and Low temperatures all
place a heavy Load on the battery . In these condi
tions a Large amount of power is consumed, but
only a small amount is supplied. The situation is
also critical if electrical equipment is in use when
the engine is not running. In this case power is
consumed when none is being generated.
In these situations you will be aware that the
power management system is intervening to con
trol the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power management
will gradually shut off the on-board systems one
by one, or reduce the amount of current they are
using. This Limits the amount of power consumed
and helps to ensure reliable starting even after a
Long period. Certain convenience features, such
as remote control unlocking, may not be availa
ble. These functions will be restored when you
switch on the ignition and start the engine. Intelligent
technology
With the engine switched off
If you Listen to the radio or use other electrical
equipment when the engine is not running, this
will discharge the battery.
A message will appear on the infotainment dis
play before the battery power drops to a Level
where the starting ability is impaired.
This message warns you that the system you are
using will soon be switched off automatically.
You should therefore start the engine if you wish
to continue using the system.
When the engine is running
Although the alternator generates electrical pow
er, the battery can still become discharged while
the vehicle is being driven. This can occur when a
Lot of power is being consumed but only a small
amount supplied, especially if the battery is not
fully charged initially.
To restore the necessary energy balance, the sys
tem will then temporarily shut off the electrical
components that are using a Lot of power, or re
duce the current they are consuming. Heating
systems in particular use a Large amount of elec
trical power. If you notice, for instance, that the
seat heating* or the rear window heater is not
working, they may have been temporarily switch
ed off or regulated to a Lower heat output. These
systems will be available again as soon as suffi
cient electrical power is available.
You may also notice that the engine runs at a
slightly faster idling speed. This is quite normal,
and no cause for concern. The increased idling
speed allows the alternator to meet the greater
power requirement and charge the battery at the
same time.
Information saved in the
control units
The vehicle is fitted in the factory with electronic
control units that, among other things, control
the engine and the gearbox. The control units al
so monitor the exhaust system and the airbags.
The control units continually analyse data rele-
vant to the vehicle while you are driving. In the
