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 mobile 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 24 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 engine off.
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter > page 18,
Traffic safety information.

Applies to: vehicles with telephone
Requirement: the vehicle must be stationary and
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
the MMI = page 206 and the mobile phone.
> Applies to: MMI: Select on the home screen:
PHONE.
> Follow the system instructions. The available
Bluetooth devices will be displayed after sever-
al seconds.

Handsfree
Requirement: your mobile phone must be con-
nected to the MMI via a Bluetooth Hands Free
Profile (Bluetooth HFP).
You can use the hands-free system. You can make
calls using the antenna on your mobile device.
Sending and receiving messages
See > page 166.
@ Tips
— Pay attention to any system prompts dis-
played on your mobile device or the MMI,
for example if the system should connect
automatically in the future. Depending on
the mobile device, you may need to down-
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.
— You can manage additional settings for con-
nected mobile devices in the Connected de-
vices menu > page 207.
— When leaving the vehicle, the Bluetooth
connection to the mobile device will auto-
matically disconnect. Depending on your
mobile device, phone calls in progress may
be automatically redirected from the MMI
to your mobile device so that you can con-
tinue the call on your phone.
Using two telephones
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.
Applies to: mobile devices with Bluetooth Mes-
sage Access Profile (MAP): You can send and re-
ceive messages with both mobile devices

Z\ WARNING
— The mobile device may become hot during
wireless charging. Pay attention to the tem-
perature of your mobile device and be care-
ful when removing it from the Audi phone
box.
—An alternating magnetic field is used for
wireless charging. Maintain a minimum dis-
tance of approximately 2.4 in (6 cm) to the
Audi phone box charging plate. The thresh-
olds for prolonged exposure at this distance
comply with ICNIRP1998. Therefore, inter-
actions such as irritation of sensory organs,
malfunctions of active implants (such as
pacemakers, infusion pumps, or neurosti-
mulators) or effects on passive implants
(such as prosthetic limbs) is highly unlikely.
If you have an implant, consult a medical
specialist if you have any questions. You can
also switch the function for wireless charg-
ing in the Audi phone box on and off. You
can continue to charge your mobile device
using a cable connection.

Problem Solution

Pairing the mobile device to the
MMI failed.
Make sure the requirements for connecting a cell phone have been
met > page 158, or
make sure you did not accidentally decline the PIN for establishing
a connection on your cell phone. If necessary, repeat the pairing
process > page 158.

After pairing, not all contacts or
no contacts have been loaded in-
to the MMI.
Avoid using special characters in names.
Avoid using contact groups on your mobile phone.
Check for prompts on your mobile device when connecting via
Bluetooth.

Certain telephone functions are
grayed out or not available.
The telephone functions depend on the mobile device service pro-
vider and the mobile device you are using.

Some telephone functions may
be switched off or not available,
even though the mobile device is
supported.
Check if the Bluetooth settings on your mobile phone are limited
or individual Bluetooth settings are deactivated. This may be the
case with business mobile phones.

The MESSAGES menu is not avail-
able.
Make sure your mobile device has an option to show messages op-
tion and that it is enabled.

Wireless mobile phone charging
is not working or is interrupted.

Check if wireless charging with the Audi phone box is switched on.
Check if your mobile device is Qi-capable.
Make sure your mobile device is positioned correctly in the Audi
phone box > page 160 and that there are no objects located be-
tween the phone box and the phone.
