Notes for use and adaptation of vehicle key
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 Audi S8, 2003 Audi A8, 2002 Audi S8, 2002 Audi A8, and 2001 Audi S8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Engine will only start when an authorized vehicle key is used, i.e. on of the keys adapted to the immobilizer.
During adaptation of the vehicle keys (see ADAPTATION OF VEHICLE KEYS ), all vehicle keys, including replacement and emergency keys, must always be adapted to the immobilizer.
If new or extra vehicle keys are required, adaptation of all vehicle keys must be performed.
If adaptation cannot be performed for all vehicle keys, for example, key lost during a trip, the customer must be informed that adaptation must eventually be performed for any and all vehicle keys.
Especially when a key has been lost, all vehicle keys should be re-adapted, since this will render the lost key unauthorized for vehicle start.
