Using the telephone
Applies to vehicles: with Bluetooth car telephone kit or phone pre-installation
Introduction
You can operate a mobile phone* or the handset conveniently via
the MMI system. It does not matter whether the mobile phone is
connected to the Bluetooth car telephone kit or the phone pre-
installation. The basic operation via the MMI control console is
always the same.
Many telephone functions that you are familiar with from your land
line or your mobile phone are available in your vehicle: You can
answer and end calls, place calls on hold and go back and forth
between two separate calls (switching calls). In addition, you can
access the MMI directory, the phone book on your SIM card and the
phone book on your mobile phone.
When you place or receive telephone calls the audio source is
muted automatically and the current media drive is paused. A
crossed-out loudspeaker will appear in the display when the system
is muted. After the call the audio source will return to its previous
volume.
You can set the system so that it will switch off the navigation* voice
guidance during phone calls if desired page 119.
Caution
•You must switch off the telephone system via the MMI menu
(Setup Telephone) in areas where the use of mobile telephones is
prohibited. Please observe all relevant caution notices and regula-
tions.
•Switch off the car telephone kit, the handset* page 140 and
any other mobile phones in all areas where there may be a risk of
explosion. Remember that these areas may not always be
adequately marked. Such places are filling stations, fuel and chem-
ical storage facilities or transport vehicles and other places where fumes, chemicals (e.g. from leaking propane or fuel vapours in vehi-
cles or buildings) or large quantities of dust particles (e.g. from
flour, wood or metal) could accumulate in the air. This warning also
applies to all other places where you would normally switch off your
engine.
Note
The telephone functions will depend on the mobile network service
provider and the mobile phone used. For more information, contact
your service provider.

Navigation
Applies to vehicles: with navigation system
Introduction
Let the “Global Positioning System” (GPS) guide you to
your destination.
Wasting time studying confusing maps and tediously planning
routes are things of the past! Now you can simply enter your desired
destination into the navigation system, and the route guidance will
guide you directly to it. You can also set up to three stopovers on the
way to your destination.
The route guidance will be transmitted in the form of spoken cues
that will inform you in good time of any necessary turns, stops etc.
In which language would you like to hear the route guidance? You
can select any of the following languages: German, English, French,
Italian, Portuguese, Spanish or Dutch. You can have the last route
guidance cue repeated by pressing the right-side thumbwheel on
the multi-function steering wheelpage 137.
A detailed route map is displayed on the MMI screen page 110.
You can also receive information on your route via the driver infor-
mation system page 111.
If you do not want to follow a certain route guidance cue, no
problem! The navigation system will re-calculate the route from the
current location of the vehicle. In addition, if the dynamic navigation
function is activated, the navigation system will even take into
account traffic reports so that you can reach your destination even
faster.
If the vehicle is located in a place that cannot be identified by the
software (e.g. car park), a speech cue will inform you of this.
WARNING
•Today's driving conditions require the full attention of drivers.
Please see page 9, “Notes on traffic safety”.
•Pay attention to traffic rules when driving.
•The route calculated by the navigation system is a recommen-
dation of how best to reach a destination. Pay attention to traffic
lights, no stopping signs, lane change restrictions, one-way
streets, etc.
Caution
•Should the navigation directions contradict the current traffic
regulations, you must always follow the traffic regulations.
•The volume should only be set at a level which enables you to
hear distant police and emergency vehicles clearly - failure to do so
could result in an accident.
Note
•Snow or other obstructions on the GPS aerial or interference
caused by trees or large buildings could affect the reception of the
satellite signals and make positioning difficult. GPS reception and
vehicle positioning can also be adversely affected by deactivation or
a malfunction of several satellites.
•Street and town names can change, therefore the names stored
on the DVD can in some cases be different from the names that have
since been changed.
•The navigation DVDs can only be purchased from Audi dealers.
They can also provide you with information on the most recently
updated navigation DVDs.
