card is connected, the SIM card in the handset is used.
For more information on how to insert the SIM card in the handset,
please refer to page 31.
Twin card
A twin card is a second SIM card for one telephone number. If you
are using a twin card in the handset, you should activate the PIN
query page 98. The SIM card in the vehicle is then only activated
when you enter the PIN.
Note
•You can still place an emergency call without a SIM card
page 147.
•The handset supports “Supplementary Services”, for example if
you want to check how much credit is still available on a prepaid
card.
•When using twin cards, calls can be disconnected suddenly if
two or more cards are in operation at the same time. Please contact
your mobile network service provider if you have any questions.
•These telephone functions depend on your mobile network
service provider. For more information, contact your service
provider.
•Some mobile telephones with Hands-Free Profile do not support
the handset. If this is the case, delete the handset from the Blue-
tooth device list page 96 or insert the SIM card into the handset.
For further information, please ask an Audi dealer or specialist
retailer.

which has been blocked. You receive the PUK from your mobile
network service provider together with the SIM card.

tively small and could possibly be swallowed.
Caution
•The handset and the SIM card can be damaged if care is not
taken.
−Please do not use force when sliding the SIM card into the slot.
−When inserting the SIM card, make sure it is in the correct
position.
•There are many different telephone SIM cards available on the
market, so it cannot be guaranteed that every card will function properly. The old type of SIM card (5V technology) can no longer be
used. If you have this type of SIM card, please contact your mobile
network service provider to obtain a replacement (with 3V tech-
nology). Never attempt to operate your telephone with an incompat-
ible SIM card, as this can cause damage to the card or your tele-
phone.
•The SIM card contacts can be easily damaged by scratches or
bending. For this reason, handle the SIM card with care.
Note
•When using a twin card please follow the recommendations of
your provider. Otherwise, you may experience connection problems
and callers may not be able to reach you.
•You can also enter the PIN and PUK using the MMI page 88.
•If you are using a twin card in the handset, you should activate
the PIN query page 98. The SIM card in the vehicle is then only
activated when you enter the PIN.
