Remote control key or convenience key*
Number of keys
You can check how many keys are initialised for your vehicle using the infotainment system. To do so, select: MENU button > Car > left control button > Servicing & checks > Car information. This feature enables used car buyers to make sure they have received all of the keys.
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 important to notify your insurance company if a key has been lost.
The immobiliser is designed to prevent unauthorised 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 different 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 remote control key. 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*.
CAUTION
The remote control key must not be exposed to moisture or excessive temperatures; do not leave it in the sun.
Note
The function of the remote control key may be impaired by interference from other nearby radio signals (for example from a mobile telephone or TV transmitter) if these are in the same frequency range. You should always check that your vehicle is locked.
