How can I get rid of this error?

We have this as a holiday car so gets very little usage and so I diconnect the battery whenever I park it up for months.  But when i reconnect the battery I get this error message on the centre screen every single time I start up.

Is there any way to get rid of this without going to the dealers?

Usually a bad connection on the multiplug under the seats that connect the loom to the seats wiring.
Leave keys out, undo the multiplug under the seat, spray with electrical solvent, contact cleaner, leave off 5 mins to dry, re assemble plug, may need to reset fault with a scanner. Job done hopefully

Sorry when I read the title of the post I thought you'd just bought an Audi.
