Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
You can operate various telephone functions easi-
ly through the MMI in your vehicle.
Depending on the country and the vehicle equip-
ment, the following options may be available:
— Connecting a cell phone with Bluetooth
— Using two telephones
— Using the Audi phone box

ZA WARNING
— Medical experts warn that mobile devices
can interfere with the function of pacemak-
ers. Always maintain a minimum distance of
about 7.9 inches (20 cm) between the mo-
bile device antennas and the pacemaker.
— Do not carry the mobile device in a pocket
directly over the pacemaker when the
phone is switched on.
— Switch the mobile device off immediately
if you suspect it may be interfering with
the pacemaker.
— Do not use the voice recognition system*
= page 25 in emergencies because your
voice may change in stressful situations. The
system may take longer to dial the number
or may not be able to dial it at all. Dial the
emergency number manually.
— Switch your mobile device off in areas where
there is a risk of an explosion. These loca-
tions are not always clearly marked. This
may include gas stations, fuel and chemical
storage facilities or transport vehicles, or lo-
cations where fuel vapors (such as propane
or gasoline vapor in vehicles or buildings),
chemicals or large quantities of dust parti-
cles (such as flour, sawdust or metal) may
be present in the air. This also applies to all
other locations where you would normally
turn your vehicle motor off.
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter > page 17,
Traffic safety information.

CG) Note
Read the information about Audi connect, and
be sure to note the connectivity costs section
=> page 186.
G@) Tips

to inside the vehicle.
—Aselection of supported Bluetooth devices
can be found in the database for tested mo-
bile devices at www.audi.com/bluetooth.

the ignition must be switched on. The Bluetooth
settings must be open on your mobile device dur-
ing the connection setup. The mobile device to be
connected must not be actively connected to any
other Bluetooth device. The MMI must only be
connected to one mobile device.
> Enable the Bluetooth function and visibility on

@) Tips
— Pay attention to any system prompts dis-
played on your mobile device or the MMI,
for example if the system should connect

load contacts and confirm access to your
messages separately.
— You can also search for the MMI on your mo-
bile device using the Bluetooth device
search.
— You only have to pair your device one time.
Bluetooth devices that are already paired
automatically connect to the MMI when the
Bluetooth function is switched on, when
they are within range, and when the ignition
is switched on. The last connected mobile
device is given first priority.

nected mobile devices in the Connected de-
vices menu > page 230.
— When leaving the vehicle, the Bluetooth
connection to the mobile device will auto-
matically disconnect. Depending on your

be automatically redirected from the MMI
to your mobile device so that you can con-
tinue the call on your phone.

Applies to: vehicles with telephone, and Audi phone box
You can connect two mobile phones to the MMI
at the same time using the Bluetooth HFP, for ex-
ample a business phone and a private phone. You
can be reached in your vehicle through both mo-
bile phones.
