Replacing a ke y
If a key is lost, see an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility. Have this key de
activa ted. It is important to bri ng all keys wit h
you .
If a key is lost, you should report it to your
insurance company.
Numb er of keys
You can check the number of keys assigned to
your veh icle in the Infotainment system. To do
this, select: the I MENU I button > Vehi cle > left
control button > Service & checks > Vehicle in·
fo rma tion. This way, you can make sure that you
have
all the keys when purchasing a used vehicle.
Electron ic immobilizer
The immobilizer preven ts unauthorized use of
the vehicle.
Unde r certain circumstances, the vehicle may not
be able to start if there is a key from a different
veh icle manufacturer on the key chain.
Data in the master key
When driving, service and maintenance-relevant
data is continuously stored on your remote con
trol key. Your Audi service advisor can read out
this data and tell you about the work your vehi cle
needs. This applies also to vehicles with a con
ven i
ence key*.
Personal comfort settings
If two people use one vehicle , it is recommended
that each person always uses "their own " master
key. When the ignition is turned off or when the
veh icle is locked, personal convenience settings
for the following systems are stored and as
signed to the remote master key.
-
Climate control system
-Parking aid*
- Active

The stored settings are automatically recalled
when you unlock the vehicle, open the doors or
turn on the ignition .
_&WARNING
Always take the vehicle key with you when
leav ing the vehicle, even for a short period of
time. This applies particularly when children
remai n in the vehicle . Otherwise the children
could
start the engine or operate e lectrical
equipment such as power w indows .
@Tips
-1
The operation of the remote control key can
be
temporarily d isrupted by interference from
transmitters in the vic in ity of the vehicle
working
in the same frequency range (e.g. a
cell

Programming the transmitter
Applies to: vehicles with garage door opener (Homelink)
F ig.
29 Distance between the radiator grille and the re
mote control transmitter
Programming the button : step 1 on the
control panel
1. Switch on the ign ition.
2.
Press both of the outside buttons on the con
trol panel Q page 33, fig. 28 until the yellow
LED@ turns off and the green LED@ blinks.
This procedure clears
the standard codes that
were set at the factory and does not need to
be repeated again to program the other but
tons.
3. Briefly press the button in the control panel
that you want to program.
4. Wait until the yellow LED@ blinks. The pro
gramming mode is active for 5 minutes.
5.
Go in front of the vehicle with the original re
mote control transmitter for the system that
you are programming to the control panel
button.
Programming the button : step 2 at the
radiator grille
6. Hold the remote control transmitter at the
vehicle radiator grille c:> fig. 29.
7 . Now press the remote control transmitter
until the turn signals on your vehicle blink.
This can
take up to 30 seconds.
8.
If the emergency flashers blink three times,
the programming was successful. If the
emergency flashers only blink one time, the
5 minute time limit for programming has ex
pired
or the programming was unsuccessful.
Repeat the programming starting from the
third step or change the distance to the radi
ator grille.
34
9. If the garage door or other systems do not
open with the Homelink buttons even if the
programming was successful, the system
may use a rolling code instead of a fixed
code.
You must also then perform rolling
co de
programmin g Q page 35.
The other two buttons in the control panel can be
programmed using the instructions given above.
Start with step 3.
Deleting button programming
The programmed buttons cannot be deleted indi
vidually, they
must be deleted all at once. Repro
gram the buttons if necessary.
... Sw itch on the ign ition.
... Press both of the outside buttons on the con
trol unit until the yellow LED@ turns off and
the green LED@ blinks .
Reprogramming buttons
... Switch on the ignition .
... To reprogram an individual button, press the
desired button until the green LED@ turns off
and the yellow LED@ starts to blink (after ap
proximately
20 seconds). Release the button
immediately. The programming mode is active
for S minutes.
... Continue with step 5.
(!) Tips
-The distance needed between the remote
control transmitter and the Homelink mod
ule in the radiator grille c:> fig. 29 depends
on the system you are programming.
- Depending on the system model, you may
need
to release the button on the remote
control transmitter while it is programming
and press it again. Hold every position you
try when programming for at least 15 sec
onds before trying a new position. Keep an
eye on the vehicle turn signals while doing
this.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine voltage, the battery current, and the battery
temperature. The current charge level and the
performance of the battery are determined based
on this.
Idling current management
The idling cur
rent management decreases the
energy used w hile parked. With the engine
switched off, it manages the energy distribution
to the different electrical components. Date from
battery diagnosis is taken into account for this.
Depending
on the battery charge level, electrical
equipment is switched off one item after the oth
er, to prevent the battery from draining and to
retain the starting ability.
Dynamic energy manage
ment
While driving, dynamic energy management dis
tributes the appropriate amount of energy to the
electrical equipment. It controls the battery
charge level so that more energy is not used then
is being generated in order to maintain an opti
mal battery charge level.
(!) Tips
-Energy management cannot overcome the
laws of physics. Note that the charge level
and
length of the battery life are limited.
-
When the starting ability is jeopardized, the
r-1 indicator light turns on ~page 13.
What you should know
Maintaining the starting ability is the highest
priority.
A lot of stress is placed on the battery when driv
ing
short distances, in traffic, and at cold times
of the year. A lot of energy is used but little is
generated. It is also critical when the engine is
not running but electrical equipment is switched
on . In this case, energy is used but none is gener
ated.
In situations like this, energy management will
actively regu l
ated the distribution of energy.
Intelligent T echnology
Long periods without use
If you do not drive your vehicle for several days or
weeks, electrical consumers are gradually scaled
back
or switched off. This reduces energy use and
ensures the vehicle will be able to start after long
periods
of time. Some convenience functions
such
as opening with the remote control key may
not be available. These convenience functions
will be available again once you switch
the igni
tion on and start the engine.
With the engine switched off
The battery will drain if you use Infotainment
functions such as listening to the radio while the
engine is switched off.
The vehicle's
ability to start may be impa ired by
the energy use, a message will appear in the In
fotainment system display. The message indi
cates that the system will switch off automatical
ly soon. If you would like to continue using the
functions, you must start the engine.
With the engine running
Although electrical
energy is generated while
driv ing,
the battery can drain. This can happen
when little energy is generated, and much is used
and the charge level of the battery is not optimal.
To
restore the balance of energy, components
that require large amounts of energy are tempo
rarily scaled back or switched off. Heating sys
tems in particular require a great deal of energy.
If you notice, for example, that the seat heating*
or rear window defroster is not working, then it
has been temporarily re d uced or sw itched off.
T
hese systems are availab le again as soon as the
energy balance has been restored.
In addition, you may notice that the idle speed
has slightly increased. That is normal and no
cause for concern. Due to the increased idling
speed, the additional required energy will be
generated and the battery will be charged.
