About this book 4About this bookEquipment and illustrationsTh i s b o o k d e s c r i b e s t h e equipment range specified for this model at

time of printing or may only be offered in certain countries.
Th e illustrations are designed as schematic images. Some of the
details on your vehicle may therefore look slightly different than
illustrated in this manual.Structure of the bookThe contents are systematically structured in a color-coded layout
to make it easier to locate specific topics and understand them.Chapters, Table of Contents and IndexThe contents of the book are divided into relatively small sections
that are summarized in clearly arranged chapters (e.g. “System
Operation”). To make it easier to use the book, we have identified
the individual chapters with the color codes from the Audi Naviga-
tion System. Each color code is shown in the bottom margin of the
chapter as well as in the headings and illustrations.
In front of each chapter, icons shaded with the background color
code of that specific section help to make the book more attractive
and also serve to differentiate the fonts and facilitate navigation.

you need.SectionsThe information in most sections apply to all vehicles. However,
since the equipment level is not the same on all vehicles, this book
also contains sections which may not apply to your particular
vehicle. When this is the case, the section will be identified, for example: “Applies to vehicles: with Audi cd changer”. This way, you
only have to read the sections which are applicable to your vehicle.
Although the information has been grouped into the appropriate
sections, there are many possible equipment combinations which
may be described in this book, but not installed on your vehicle.

provides a wealth of potential entertainment and a wide variety of
information in addition to navigation.
Carry out your settings in the Navigation System only when the
vehicle is stationary. Avoid using the Navigation System while you
are driving so that you can devote your full attention to traffic. Use
the controls on the multi-function steering wheel*

cloth.Display
The Display can be cleaned with a professionally available “LCD
cleaner”. The cloth should be slightly dampened with the cleaning
fluid to clean the display.

trapped between the buttons and the housing. We recommend
giving the controls a final wipe with a cloth moistened with water
and dish washing detergent.

Tips
You can find information about the different drives starting on page 34.Anti-theft codingGeneral
Effective safety measures in conjunction with the PIN
prevent misuse of the equipment by unauthorized
parties.The electronic lock-up is operational, if:

the Navigation System is removed from the vehicle,


the Navigation System is disconnected from the vehicle current
supply,


the battery is disconnected or


the electric fuse for the Navigation System is blown.
I f t h e a n t i - t h e ft c o d i n g h as l o cke d up t h e N a v i g a t i o n S ys t e m fo r o n e
of the reasons given, the speller display for entering the PIN
page 14, fig.6 appears after the Navigation System is switched
on.
After that, the Navigation System can only be operated again only
by entering the correct PIN.
This PIN is attached to the equipment card along with the equip-
ment number.
The PIN can be used for your equipment alone and cannot be
changed.
Note
The “equipment card” should be removed and kept in a safe place -
under no circumstances should it be kept in the vehicle. This makes
the Audi Navigation System unusable by thieves.Applies to vehicles: with convenience codingUser-friendly radio codingAft e r t he P I N i s e n t e re d t h e fir s t t im e , t h e N a v i g a t i o n S ys t e m g e t s to
know its vehicle.
If the power supply was interrupted, the Navigation System checks
to see whether it is still its vehicle. If it is, the Navigation System is
ready for use again after a few seconds.
It is no longer necessary to manually disable the electronic lock!
However, if the Navigation System is installed in another vehicle,
the electronic lock must be cancelled by entering the PIN page 14.
