Audi's driver's side door button is for the infrared anti-theft alarm system. Below is an introduction to the infrared anti-theft alarm system. Classification of infrared anti-theft alarm systems: An infrared anti-theft alarm is a device that uses infrared rays for alarm purposes, divided into active and passive types. Function of the infrared anti-theft alarm system: An anti-theft alarm system is a device that triggers an alarm when an unauthorized intrusion into a protected area occurs. It is used to signal the presence of a dangerous situation. The anti-theft alarm system uses detectors to secure important locations and areas inside and outside buildings. It can promptly detect unauthorized intrusions and alert relevant personnel when such intrusions are detected.
I've been driving an Audi for many years, and the row of buttons on the driver's side door is most frequently used for controlling window operation and door lock functions. There's a dedicated button for one-touch up/down operation of the driver's window, which works smoothly and effortlessly; the other buttons manage the passenger and rear windows, allowing you to open or close them with a single press, making ventilation in the car particularly convenient. There's also a window lock button on the right—pressing it locks all windows to prevent accidental operation by children or pets for safety. Positioned above the door handle, these buttons can be operated with one hand without affecting visibility while driving, and once you get used to them, they feel very intuitive. The design incorporates ergonomics with buttons that have strong rebound feedback. Occasionally, if they stick, cleaning out dust usually solves the problem. I also recommend regularly checking button responsiveness to avoid poor contact during humid weather affecting their use.
