Media
General information
There may be different media drives and connec-
tions available depending on the vehicle equip-
ment. For example, you can play media files us-
ing the SD card reader or connect your mobile de-
vices to the Audi music interface and operate
them through the MMI.
Media and format restrictions: the MMI (includ-
ing the SD card reader and the USB storage de-
vice connection) was tested with a variety of
products and media on the market. However,
there may be cases where individual devices or
media and audio/video files may not be recog-
nized, may play only with restrictions, or may not
play at all.
Restricted functionality: reset the Media to the
factory default settings if functionality is restrict-
ed.
Digital Rights Management: please note that
the audio/video files are subject to copyright pro-
tection.
The media drives do not play files that are pro-
tected by DRM and are identified with the symbol
&.
Data security: never store important data on SD
cards, CDs/DVDs, or mobile devices. Audi AG is
not responsible for damaged or lost files and me-
dia.
Loading times: the more files/folders/playlists
there are on a storage medium, the longer it will
take to load. To reduce the amount of time it
takes the audio/video files to load, use a storage
medium that only contains audio/video files, and
create subfolders (for example, for each artist or
album).
Additional information: When playing, audio
files are automatically displayed with any addi-
tional information that is stored (such as the ar-
tist, track and album cover). If this information is
not available on the storage medium, the MMI
will check the Gracenote metadata database.
However, in some cases, the additional informa-
tion may not be displayed.

C@) Note
Read the information about Audi connect, and
be sure to note the connectivity costs section
=@ in General information on page 154.
SD card reader
The SD card reader is located in the glove com-
partment.
Inserting the SD card
>» The angled corner of the SD card must face to-
ward the right front side when being inserted.
> Slide the SD card into the card reader slot until
the SD card clicks into place.
The SD card reader is accessed and operated
through the MMI > page 185.
@) Note
— Only use one-piece SD cards. If adapter
cards (SD cards with more than one piece)
are used, the card could fall out of the
adapter when driving because of vibrations.
Individual pieces could then become stuck
in the drive and impair the functionality.
—To reduce the risk of damaging drives and
data carriers, always keep data carriers ina
sleeve and never expose them to direct sun-
light.
Bluetooth audio player
Applies to: vehicles with Bluetooth audio player
With the Bluetooth audio player, you can play
music wirelessly through the MMI from your
Bluetooth-capable mobile device (such as a cell
phone).
Requirement: The vehicle must be stationary and
the ignition must be switched on. The Bluetooth
settings will open on your mobile device during
the connection setup. The Bluetooth function and
visibility of the MMI > page 196 and mobile de-
vice must be switched on.

— Do not use an additional adapter cable or
USB extension cable to connect mobile devi-
ces to the Audi music interface that already
have a cable or that must be connected with
a USB adapter cable (> page 184, fig. 134).
Using an additional adapter or US extension
cable may impair functionality.

terface is not supported on Apple and MTP

face will support iPod touch or iPhone devi-
ces from the 5th generation or newer with

Checking and Filling

Service interval display
The service interval display detects when your ve-
hicle is due for service.
The service interval display works in two stages:
— Inspection or oil change reminder: After a cer-
tain distance driven, a message appears in the
instrument cluster display each time the igni-
tion is switched on or off. The remaining dis-
tance or time is displayed briefly.
— Inspection or oil change due: If your vehicle is
due for an inspection or oil change or both, a
message appears briefly in the instrument clus-
ter display when switching the ignition on or
off: Inspection due! or Oil change due! or Oil
change and inspection due!.
Checking service intervals
You can check the remaining distance or time un-
til the next oil change or next inspection in the
Infotainment system.
Select on the home screen: VEHICLE > Settings
& Service > Service intervals.
Resetting the indicator
An authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility will reset the service interval dis-
play after performing service.
If you have changed the oil yourself, you must re-
set the oil change interval.
Select on the home screen: VEHICLE > Settings
& Service > Service intervals > Reset oil change
interval.
@) Note
— Only reset the oil change indicator if the oil
was changed.
— Following the service intervals is critical to
maintaining the service life and value of
your vehicle, especially the engine. Even if
the mileage on the vehicle is low, do not ex-
ceed the time for the next service.
