Calling up the registered remote keys
~page 27.
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 author -
ized Audi dealership to have the function
locked for
this key. Also inform your insurance
company that this key is lost.

cle. Always lock all doors and take the

- Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle, especially with access to vehicle
keys. Unguarded access to the keys pro-

tems such as the power windows. Unsu-
pervised operation of any vehicle system
by children can result in serious injury.
