Indicator lights overview
The indicator lights in the instrument cluster
blink or turn on. They indicate functions or mal-
functions.
With some indicator lights, messages may ap-
pear and warning signals may sound. The indica-
tor lights and messages may be covered by other
displays. To show them again, select the second
tab for messages with the multifunction steering
wheel © page 12.
Some indicator lights in the display can display in
several colors.
Some indicator lights turn on briefly as a function
check when you switch the ignition on. These sys-
tems are marked with a V in the following tables.
If one of these indicator lights does not turn on,
there is a malfunction in that system.
The following indicator lights may be available,
depending on the vehicle equipment:

Central locking
You can lock and unlock the vehicle centrally. You
have the following options:
— Remote control key > page 24
— Sensors in the door handles* > page 24
— Lock cylinder on the driver's door > page 26,
or
— Interior central locking switch > page 25
Automatic locking function (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks all doors and the
luggage compartment lid once the speed has ex-
ceeded approximately 9 mph (15 km/h).
The vehicle can be unlocked if the opening func-
tion in the central locking system switch is used
or one of the door handles is pulled. The Auto
Lock function can be switched on and off in the
Infotainment system => page 26.
In the event of a crash with airbag deployment,
the doors will also automatically unlock to allow
access to the vehicle.
Selective door unlocking
The doors and luggage compartment lid will lock
when they close. You can set in the Infotainment
system whether only the driver's door or the en-
tire vehicle should be unlocked when unlocking
=> page 26.
Turn signals
The turn signals flash twice when you unlock the
vehicle and flash once when you lock the vehicle.
If the blinking continues, one of the doors or the
luggage compartment lid is not closed or the ig-
nition is still switched on.
Unintentionally locking yourself out
Only lock your vehicle when all of the doors and
the luggage compartment lid are closed and the
remote control key is not in the vehicle. This re-
duces the risk of locking yourself out accidental-
ly.
The following conditions prevent you from lock-
ing your remote control key in the vehicle:
— If the driver's door is open, the vehicle cannot
be locked by pressing the & button on the re-
mote control key or by touching the locking
sensor* ona door.
— If the most recently used convenience key* is
inside the luggage compartment, the luggage
compartment lid will automatically open again
after closing it.
— If the last convenience key* that was used is de-
tected inside the vehicle, the vehicle cannot be
locked from the outside for a brief time > ©.
@) Note
Applies to: Vehicles with convenience key
— If the convenience key* that was last used is
detected inside the passenger compart-
ment, then the vehicle cannot be locked
from the outside. The turn signals will flash
several times to indicate this. If you do not
open the vehicle within a short time to re-
move the vehicle key, then the vehicle will
lock automatically. This prevents the vehicle
from being left unlocked for long periods of
time. The key will then be locked inside the
vehicle.
— If the convenience key* that was used last is
detected inside the luggage compartment,
it will not be possible to lock the luggage
compartment and the luggage compart-
ment lid will open. The turn signals will
flash several times to indicate this. The
doors will lock. Always take the convenience
key with you, or unauthorized people may
be able to enter the vehicle.
G) Tips
— Do not leave valuables unattended in the ve-
hicle. A locked vehicle is not a safe!
—The LED in the driver's door rail blinks when
you lock the vehicle. If the LED lights up for
approximately 30 seconds after locking,
there is a malfunction in the central locking
system. Have the problem corrected by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility.

Opening and closing
> Press the ff lock button on the convenience key
and touch the sensor on the door handle (driv-
er's door) one time within five seconds of press-
ing the button > fig. 16. Do not grasp the door
handle while locking the vehicle, or else the ve-
hicle will not lock.
> To check if the function has been deactivated,
wait at least 10 seconds and pull the door han-
dle again. The door should not open.
After that, it will only be possible to unlock the
vehicle using the remote control key or by me-
chanically unlocking the lock cylinder. Keyless ac-
cess will be active again after the next time the
vehicle is locked/unlocked.
You can unlock/lock the vehicle at every door. The
convenience key must no be more than approxi-
mately 5 feet (1.5 m) away from the door handle.
The function should not be impaired if the con-
venience key is in your jacket pocket or in your
briefcase, for example.
If you hold the door handle while locking, this
can impair the locking function.
The door cannot be opened for a brief period di-
rectly after locking it. This way you have the op-
portunity to check if the doors locked correctly.
The settings in the Infotainment system deter-
mine if the entire vehicle or only one of the doors
is unlocked when unlocking the vehicle
=> page 26.
ZA\ WARNING
No one, especially children, should stay in the
vehicle when it is locked from the outside, be-
cause the windows can no longer be opened
from the inside > page 27. Locked doors
make it more difficult for emergency workers
to get into the vehicle, which puts lives at risk.
Z\ WARNING
Read and following all WARNINGS. > A in
Key set on page 22
@) Tips
If your vehicle is left standing for a long peri-
od
of time, note the following:
—To prevent the vehicle battery from dis-
charging, the energy management gradual-
ly switches off convenience functions that
are not needed. You then may no longer be
able to unlock your vehicle with the sensors.
— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see
=> page 283.

—The central locking switch also works when
the ignition is switched off and automatical-
ly locks the entire vehicle when the & button
is pressed.

ion, press the front button up/down. To adjust
the rear seat cushion, press the rear button up/

@- Lengthening/shortening the upper thigh sup-
port*: lift the grip handle.
Z\ WARNING
— Only adjust the front seat when the vehicle
is stationary. Otherwise, this increases the
risk of an accident
— The power front seats can also be adjusted
when the ignition is switched off. For this
46
reason, children should never be left unat-
tended in the vehicle because they could be
injured.
— Exercise caution when adjusting the seat
height. Unsupervised or careless seat adjust-
ment can pinch fingers or hands causing in-
juries.
— The front seat backrests must not be re-
clined too far back when driving, because
this impairs the effectiveness of the safety
belts and airbag system, which increases the
risk of injury.
—To minimize the risk of injury during sudden
braking or a collision, the driver and the
front passenger must not drive or ride with
the backrest in the reclined position. The
safety belts and airbag system can only pro-
vide the greatest protection possible when
the backrests are in the upright position and
the safety belts are worn correctly. The more
a backrest is reclined, the greater the risk of
injury due to an incorrect seating position
and safety belt position.
Multifunction button
Applies to: vehicles with multifunction button
You can adjust the side bolsters using the multi-
function button.
> If you turn the multifunction button @
=> page 46, fig. 48 to the left or right, the side
bolsters on the seat backrests will increase or
decrease the lateral support.
G) Tips
The air in the side bolsters* is released as
soon as the driver's door opens. This makes is
possible to enter and exit the vehicle more
comfortably. As soon as you start driving the
vehicle, the side bolsters fill.

ZX WARNING
Spilled hot liquid can increase the risk of acci-
dents and injuries.
— Never drive with containers that contain hot
liquid such as coffee or tea. The hot liquid
could spill and cause burns during a colli-
sion, sudden braking or other vehicle move-
ment. Spilled hot liquid can also increase
the risk of accidents and injuries.
— Only use soft containers in the cup holders.
Hard cups and glasses can increase the risk
of injury during a collision.
— Never use the cup holder or the adapter as
an ashtray because this is a fire hazard.
C) Note
Beverage containers in the cup holders should
always
have a lid. Otherwise, the liquid inside
could spill and cause damage to vehicle
equipment.
Additional storage
You will find a range of storage compartments
and holders at different locations in the vehicle.
— Compartments in the doors
— Storage area in the glove compartment. The
glove
compartment can be locked using the
mechanical key > page 23.
— Storage compartment under the center arm-
rest*
— Storage compartment between the seat backr-
ests

weight of 2.2 lbs (1 kg).
ZA WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure the
covers for all storage compartments are al-
ways closed while driving.
— Only use the storage compartments in the
door trim panels to store small objects that
will not stick out of the compartment and
impair the function of the side airbags.

tion during a collision. Always make sure
that the steering wheel is level with your
chest.
— Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi-
tions to reduce the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys.
— Never hold the steering wheel in the 12
o'clock position or with both hands on the
rim or the center of the steering wheel.
Holding the steering wheel incorrectly sig-
nificantly increases the risk of injury to the
hands, arms and head if the airbag deploys.
ZA WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering wheel adjust-
ment and an incorrect seating position can
cause serious injuries.
— Only adjust the steering column when the
vehicle is stationary so that you do not lose
control of the vehicle.
— Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is at least a 10 in (25 cm) dis-
tance between your chest and the steering
wheel. If you do not maintain this distance,
you will not be properly protected by the air-
bag system.
— If your physical characteristics prevent you
from sitting at least 10 in (25 cm) or more
away from the steering wheel, see if an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility can provide adapters that
will help.
