A WARNING

- Please direct your full attention to the road
at all times! As the driver, you have full re­
sponsibility for the safety of the vehicle and
other road users.
For
this reason, you should
only use the functions in a manner that al­
lows you to maintain control of the vehicle
in all situations - accident risk!
- The speech dialogue system must not be
used in cases of emergency, since the voice
changes in stressful situations. This could
result in a failed or delayed telephone
con­

nection.
Always dial emergency numbers
manually!
164

Telephone
- Do not carry a mobile phone in your breast
pocket directly over the pacemaker when
the phone is switched on.
-If you suspect interference, switch the
mobile phone off immediately.
- The speech dialogue system*
^>page
164
must not be used in cases of emergency,
since the voice changes in stressful situa­

tions.
This could result in a failed or delayed
telephone connection. Always dial emergen­
cy numbers manually!
- Switch off your mobile phones in all areas
where there may be a risk of explosion. Re­
member that these areas may not always be
adequately marked. Such places are filling
stations, fuel and chemical storage facilities
or transport vehicles and other places where
fumes, chemicals (e.g. from leaking
pro­

pane or fuel vapours in vehicles or build­
ings) or large quantities of dust particles

(e.g.
from flour, wood or metal) could accu­
mulate in the air. This warning also applies
to all other places where you would normal­
ly switch off your engine.
- Today's driving conditions require the full
attention of drivers. Please always note the
information in the chapter

Telephone
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
You have different options for making calls in
your vehicle via the MMI; this depends on your
vehicle's equipment and the features of your mo­
bile phone.
Handsfree operation
After connecting your mobile phone to the MMI
system via Bluetooth, you can operate the hands-
free system and the telephone functions conven­
iently via the MMI. Your phone calls will be made
via the antenna of your mobile phone.
With the Audi phone box*, you can use the
vehi­

cle's external aerial to make calls. The use of the
external aerial reduces radiation in the vehicle
and also ensures better reception quality

phone.
With the car telephone function, you can
use the vehicle's external aerial to make calls.
The use of the external aerial reduces radiation in
the vehicle and also ensures better reception
quality

fully, you can also change the profiles at a later

time.
