• Download the guide.
• You can book your vehicle using your Outlook calendar. Select the vehicle (send a meeting invitation to the vehicle’s calendar) and select the date and time. Enter the driver’s name and mobile number in the topic field (‘Emne’). Just name one driver, even if there are several drivers. State the purpose of the trip and the destination in the location field (‘Sted’). 
• If you are a secretary and you are reserving the vehicle on behalf of colleagues and/or students, set up a meeting in the vehicle’s own Outlook calendar and invite the vehicle to the meeting. 
• Please note that a vehicle can only be booked for up to one week at a time.
• Remember to update your booking in Outlook if you have to make any changes.

NB! If you make an all-day reservation, it is important that you change the vehicle’s status from available (‘ledig’) to reserved (‘optaget’).  

Special booking rules for students
Students cannot book vehicles themselves, and should contact the school secretariat, which is where the booking must be made (contact information). Students must complete and bring with them a driving permit which must be signed both by the student concerned and by the head of the school secretariat/deputy head of school (as authorised by the head of school).

Download the driving permit.

You need to show the driving permit as well as a printout of the booking confirmation or the vehicle’s Outlook calendar to the Maintenance Office in Aarhus (or Berit Granum in Emdrup) when you pick up the keys.

Please note that you must complete a separate driving permit for each booking. 

When you pick up the keys, please hand in a printout of your booking confirmation or the vehicle’s Outlook calendar. We need this for administrative reasons.
The keys can be picked up the day before you need the vehicle

It is important that you pick up and return your vehicle at the agreed time.

You will find a logbook in the vehicle. Please fill this in when you return the vehicle. Check whether the previous driver has registered the number of kilometres correctly.

Further information about driving the vehicle can be obtained by using the QR code, which is located on the dashboard/in the glove compartment in the car.       

Please return the vehicle at the agreed time. Park it where you found it in the underground car park (Aarhus) or in the car park (Emdrup).

The vehicle must be returned with a full tank. You must pay for the fuel you use. You must also pay any fines, parking charges etc.  

Please clean and wash the vehicle before returning it.

Please note that, in connection with the reopening of the university after the Corona lockdown, there are special rules for using the faculty’s official vehicles. Please disinfect all the surfaces inside the vehicle before you return it. Disinfectant wipes will be provided in the vehicle.    

Via SikkerhedsPartner A/S, you can call Dansk Autohjælp A/S for roadside assistance for official AU vehicles:

If you need roadside assistance, please call 70 113 113.

When contacting Dansk Autohjælp, you must state the vehicle’s registration number and refer to the university’s customer number: SP-87150000.

Aarhus University is self-insured. This means that any accidents and damage to official vehicles occurring in Denmark will be covered by Aarhus University.

Special information for students

Students are not covered by Aarhus University’s industrial injury insurance for employees. Students are therefore encouraged to take out their own accident insurance.
