I had an odd incident last night on my 2019 S3, just curious if anyone knows what happened.

I was stopped at a light. The engine shut off and went into ready mode (auto stop-start) as normal.

I was resting my arm on my leg and I think I pushed one of the buttons on the key fob by accident.

The car suddenly gave an alert beep, went from ready to full "off", and said the remote key was no longer valid / connected / something to that effect (wish I remembered the actual error message but I kind of went into panic mode that a) my new car was randomly broken and b) the light was green and someone was behind me). I put the car into park and restarted and everything was fine, but ... does anyone know what I did, and if this is an expected behavior?

Thanks.
