How to set the horn sound when locking an Audi A6?
2 Answers
Audi A6's horn sound setting method for locking: Find the vehicle settings in the car's central control screen, then locate the lock sound option to make adjustments. The locking horn primarily produces sound through electromagnetic vibration. The electromagnetic coil attracts the moving contact switch of the relay to close, allowing current to flow to the horn's wiring. This current activates the electromagnet inside the horn, causing the vibration membrane to vibrate and produce sound. Taking the Audi A6 (imported) 2021 Avant Pioneer 40TFSI Luxury Dynamic model as an example: It is a mid-to-large-sized car launched by Audi (imported), with dimensions of 4951mm in length, 1886mm in width, and 1483mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2925mm. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Setting the lock confirmation beep for the Audi A6 is actually quite convenient. Having driven this model, I can confirm the process is done through the MMI system. First, sit in the car and start the engine, or simply turn on the power. Then press the menu button on the center console to access the 'Vehicle' settings area, which might be labeled as Vehicle Settings or Door Lock Settings. In the submenu, look for 'Central Locking' or a similar option, where you'll find a 'Lock Confirmation Sound' or 'Acoustic Feedback' toggle—simply select and enable it, then save. Remember to perform this operation while parked in P mode for safety. I've found that once enabled, pressing the remote key will trigger a horn beep to confirm successful locking, which is especially useful in parking lots or noisy environments to ensure you don't forget to lock the car. If it doesn't work, try checking the vehicle battery or restarting the system, then manually verify the settings again. I also recommend confirming this setting during routine maintenance to ensure the anti-theft feature remains functional, enhancing daily convenience. Overall, it takes just a minute or two to set up and significantly improves the user experience.
