General notes on CD/DVD operation
These general notes apply to audio CDs and navigation
DVDs.
Requirements for good sound reproduction
Please note the following in order to ensure perfect high-quality
sound reproduction and avoid damage to media drives:
•Do not use damaged or scratched CDs or DVDs .
•Do not use single CDs (diameter 8 cm / 3 inches) .
•Do not use non-circular CDs (shape CDs) .
•Do not use labels .
•Do not use protective rings .
•Do not use dirty CDs or DVDs.
•Do not use a CD cover or a stabiliser.
•Always store unused CDs/DVDs in a suitable CD case and do not
expose them to direct sunlight.
Cleaning media drives, CDs and DVDs
Never use a CD player cleaning disc to clean the media drives.Clean CDs and DVDs with a soft, lint-free cloth. Wipe the disc in a
straight line from the centre outwards. If necessary, dirt can be
removed with a commercially available CD cleaner or with isopropyl
alcohol. Please never use petrol, paint thinner or record cleaner, as
these can damage CDs and DVDs.
Use of laser equipment
Laser devices are divided into the safety classes 1 to 4, as specified
by DIN IEC 76 (CO) 6/ VDE 0837. The audio devices used on your
vehicle are classified as safety class 1. Lasers used in devices that
fall into this category are very weak and well screened, so there is
no danger if used correctly.
Read errors
If the display indicates a read error, any of the following causes are
possible:

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.

Special destination.
The navigation system can also guide you to special destinations
such as petrol stations or hotels. When entering your destination,
simply choose the approximate location of the special destination
(in the immediate vicinity, in the vicinity of the destination or nation-
wide). You can then select the category of the special destination
from a list (e.g. petrol station or hotel). The MMI display even indi-
cates the direction of the special destinations (arrows).
In immediate vicinity
The special destination is located in the immediate vicinity of your
vehicle. The special destinations are sorted according to the
distance from your current location, starting with the closest. You
can use this function, for example, to plan stopovers (closest restau-
rant).In vicinity of destination
The special destination is located in the vicinity of your destination.
You can use this function, for example, to find a petrol station near
your destination.
Nationwide
A special destination can be found irrespective of your current posi-
tion and your navigation destination. You can use this function, for
example, to navigate to an airport in the selected country.
Call: (telephone number)*
If telephone numbers are stored for a special destination on the
navigation DVD and your vehicle is equipped with a factory-fitted
telephone*, you can call the selected special destination. For
example, you can call a restaurant and reserve a table before driving
to the destination.
Note
There are certain destination entries in the list that cannot be
displayed completely because they are too long (too many charac-
ters). If you select one of these entries, a separate window will be
displayed after a few seconds. This window will show more informa-
tion about the selected entry.
Applies to vehicles: with navigation system
Top destination
– Select: Function selector button , or
– Select: Function selector button > stopover.
When storing a navigation destination, you can activate the func-
tion Display as top destination (). Top destinations are listed in the
destination entry screen page 105, fig. 91 and can be copied into
the destination entry field directly.
