Audi R8 Coupé Setting off Doors and window... Central locking...
The vehicle can be locked and unlocked via the central locking system. You can use any of the following:
Automatic locking function (Auto Lock)
The Auto Lock function locks the doors and the luggage lid when the vehicle exceeds a speed of about 15 km/h.
The vehicle is unlocked again immediately when the unlock button in the central locking switch is pressed or one of the inside door handles is pulled. The Auto Lock function can be switched on and off on the infotainment system link.
In the event of an accident in which the airbags inflate, the doors will be automatically unlocked to facilitate access and assistance.
Unlocking one side of the vehicle only
When you lock the vehicle, the central locking system will lock the doors and the luggage lid. When you unlock the vehicle, the central locking system will unlock either the driver s door only, or all the locks on the vehicle, depending on the setting you have selected on the infotainment system link.
Turn signals
The turn signals will flash twice when the vehicle is unlocked and once when the vehicle is locked. If the turn signals do not flash, one of the doors or the luggage lid is still open or the ignition is still on.
Accidental lock-out
The central locking system prevents you from being locked out of the vehicle in the following situations:
  • When the driver s door is open, you cannot lock the vehicle by pressing the button on the remote control key or touching the locking sensor* on one of the doors.
  • When one of the doors is open, it cannot be locked together with the other doors by pressing the button in the central locking switch and then closing the door link.
To prevent yourself from being locked out, do not lock the vehicle with the convenience key until all of the doors and the luggage lid are closed.
Note
  • Never leave any valuable items in the vehicle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not a safe.
  • When you lock the vehicle, the LED on the driver s window sill flashes. If the LED is still on about 30 seconds after the vehicle is locked, the central locking system is not working properly. You should have the malfunction repaired by a qualified workshop.
