Default Alarm chirps when door wet

I just got a new A4 30th Ann. edition in Daytona Gray. Washed yesterday for first time and alarm beeps when I spray water on the doors. Whats with that? Can't find anything in the manual. Anybody familiar with this?

The key-less entry system uses sensors in the door handles. These sensors are triggered by moisture. If your key is within a few feet of the door then moisture will trigger the lock/unlock. Just place the keys a few meters away and all will be well.
