Installing Steering Lock

1. Fit the steering lock in the vehicle with the locking pin in unlocked position (ignition steering lock position 1)
   NOTE:

   • If necessary, first modify the lock barrel (use previous lock barrel) or modify the key head (handheld transmitter). This makes it unnecessary to teach the transponder (refer to INSTALLATION  ).
2. Align steering lock housing; the peg of the steering lock must engage easily. Tighten fastening screws.
3. On Tiptronic vehicles, join the keylock cable with the steering lock (in steering lock position 1). To do this, line up the pusher on the keylock cable with the steering lock and insert (press in) in this position until the connection nipple engages on the steering lock housing. (Selector lever not in position "P".) Then select position "P" and subsequently turn steering lock to position "0". See Fig 1 .

   NOTE:

   • If the steering lock cannot be turned to position "0", this may be due to the following:
   • Pusher of keylock cable not correctly fitted on the steering lock
   • Keylock cable not correctly fitted on the selector console
   • Defective parts (replace if necessary).

     The keylock cable is not adjustable. However, the following procedure (mounting instructions) must be followed when mounting on the selector console.

     Instructions for mounting keylock cable on the selector lever 

   • Turn ignition key to position "1" (ignition on) and move selector lever to position "D". See Fig 2 .
   • Engage nipple (1) of the cable in the keylock lever (2) of the selector console. See Fig 2 .
   • Insert housing adjustment device (3) in the selector console housing until the clip (4) engages. See Fig 2 .
   • Press cable sleeve (5) toward the selector console (6). See Fig 2 .
   • Release cable and press locking button (7) until it engages. See Fig 2 .
   • Check keylock function: Insert ignition key and turn to position 1 (ignition on). Move selector lever from "P" to "D". Turn ignition key counter-clockwise. It must not be possible to reach the pull-out position. Then release key again and move selector lever to position "P". In this position, it must be possible to remove the ignition key and the selector lever button must be locked. See Fig 2 .

The transponder does not have to be taught if:

• The previous key head A (handheld transmitter) is fitted on the new key C. (Disassembling and assembling handheld transmitter.)
• A new lock barrel with defined locking is installed (the entire previous key can thus be used).
