At the operating unit
1. Switch on the ignition (do not start the engine).
2. Press and hold down the two outer HomeLink buttons
⇒page 145, fig. 160 until the indicator diode
⇒page 145, fig. 160 begins to flash after about
20 seconds. This procedure will delete the standard
factory settings and does not need to be repeated when
programming the other buttons.
3. Press the particular HomeLink button which you would
like to program.
4. Wait until the diode begins to flash. The HomeLink
module now remains in training mode for 5 minutes.
5. Now step in front of your vehicle with the original hand-
held transmitter for the garage door opener or any other
device you wish to assign to the HomeLink control
button.
At the radiator grille
6. Hold the original hand-held transmitter at or near the
centre of your car's radiator grille ⇒page 145, fig. 161.
7. Press the activator button on the original hand-held
transmitter.
8. As you do so, watch the turn signals on your vehicle.
HomeLink confirms successful programming by flashing
all four turn signals three times.
9. If the turn signals fail to flash three times, repeat the
procedure with the transmitter held at a different
distance from the radiator grille.
The proper distance between the hand-held transmitter and the
HomeLink module at the radiator grille depends on the system you
want to train. It may require several attempts.
The turn signals will flash once if the time limit for the programming
mode has been exceeded. In this case the programming procedure
needs to be performed again. Repeat the sequence at the operating
unit starting with step 3.
The programming instructions above also apply to the other control
buttons. Start with step 3 if you wish to proceed and program the
other two buttons.
If the garage door or other devices still fail to be activated with the
HomeLink control buttons after programming is completed, it is
possible that these systems might be working with a rolling code
instead of the normal fixed security code. If this is the case, a rolling
code programming is required in addition to the steps described
above. ⇒page 146Applies to vehicles: with HomeLinkRolling code programming
Some devices require rolling code programming of the
HomeLink universal transmitter.Identifying a rolling code
– Press the already programmed HomeLink button again
and hold it down.
–Watch HomeLink diode ⇒page 145, fig. 160. If the
diode starts flashing rapidly and turns into a constant
light after about 2 seconds, this indicates that the device
you wish to operate (e.g. a garage door opener) is
equipped with a rolling code.
– Program the rolling code as follows:

Activating the garage door opener drive unit
– Locate the programming button on the garage door
drive. The exact location and colour of the button may
vary depending on the type of garage door opener.
– Press the programming button on the door drive unit
(this will normally cause a “programming mode indicator
lamp” on the unit to light up). You now have about 30
seconds to start and complete the programming of the
HomeLink control button on the operating unit.
Programming at the operating unit in the
headliner
– Press and release the already programmed HomeLink
button.
– Press the HomeLink button again to complete rolling
code programming.After programming at the operating unit in the headliner, the
garage door opener should recognize the HomeLink signal and
respond when the HomeLink button is pressed. Now the other
control buttons can be programmed as required.
Note
•
Having a second person assist you makes programming of the
rolling code easier and faster. For some makes of garage door
openers the HomeLink button may have to be pressed a third time
to complete the training sequence.
•
If you encounter problems programming the rolling code you
may find helpful information in the operating instructions of the
garage door opener or other device you wish to operate.
Applies to vehicles: with HomeLinkOperating HomeLink
The programmed devices are activated by means of the
HomeLink control buttons in the headliner.– Make sure that the ignition is on.
– Press the programmed HomeLink button ⇒page 145,
fig. 160. The device assigned to that button (e.g. garage
door) will be activated.The HomeLink indicator diode ⇒page 145, fig. 160 will light up
when you press the button.Applies to vehicles: with HomeLinkErasing the button programming
You can erase the complete HomeLink programming by
pressing the two outer buttons.– Switch on the ignition (do not start the engine).
– Press and hold down the two outer buttons until the indi-
cator diode starts to flash ⇒page 145, fig. 160.
– Then release the buttons.After the programming of the HomeLink buttons has been erased,
the system will return to the training mode and is ready to be re-
programmed at any time.
Note
•
Programmed buttons cannot be erased individually.
•
For security reasons it is advisable to erase the programming of
the HomeLink buttons prior to selling your vehicle.

Technical data After washing, the wheels should only be cleaned with an "acid-
free" cleaning agent for alloy wheels. This is available from Audi
dealers and specialist retailers. Never leave the cleaning agent on
the rims for any longer than specified in the instructions before
rinsing it off. If the wheel cleaner fluid contains acid it can attack the
surfaces of the wheel bolts.
Car polish or other abrasive agents should not be used. If the
protective paint coating is damaged by stone chips etc., the
damaged area should be touched up immediately.
WARNING
Please note when cleaning the wheels that water, ice and road salt
can impair the effectiveness of the brakes – this can cause an
accident.Care of interiorMMI display screen and control consoleThe MMI display screen can be cleaned with a soft cloth and a
special “LCD cleaner” (available from retailers of electrical goods).
Moisten the cloth with a small amount of the cleaning fluid.
Clean the MMI control console with a fine brush first to prevent any
dirt from getting in between the control buttons and the housing.
We then recommend wiping the MMI control console using a cloth
moistened with washing-up liquid and water.
Caution
To avoid scratching the screen, do not wipe the MMI display with a
dry cloth.•
To avoid any possibility of damage, do not let any liquid get
inside the control console.
Plastic parts and leatherettePlastic parts and leatherette can be cleaned with a damp cloth. If
this is not sufficient, plastic parts and leatherette should only be
treated with a special solvent-free plastic cleaner.Textile covers and trim partsTextile covers and trim parts (e.g. seats, door trim) should be
cleaned regularly with a vacuum cleaner. This will remove surface
dirt which could otherwise be rubbed into the textile material
during use. Do not use steam cleaners, as the steam could carry the
dirt deeper into the textile material.
Normal cleaning
We recommend that you use a soft sponge or lint-free, micro-fibre
cloth for normal cleaning. Only use brushes on floor coverings and
mats, as other textile surfaces could become damaged.
In the case of normal surface dirt you can use a foam cleaner. Use a
sponge to spread the foam on the textile surface and to work it into
the material lightly. However, make sure that the textile material
does not become soaking wet. Then dab off the foam with a dry and
absorbent cloth (e.g. a micro-fibre cloth) and vacuum off any
residue once the surface is completely dry.
Removal of stains
To treat stains caused by spilled drinks (coffee, fruit juice or similar)
make up a solution with a mild detergent for sensitive fabrics and
apply it with a sponge. If the stains are difficult to remove, a
washing paste can be applied directly onto the stain and worked
into the fabric. The surface will then have to be wiped with clear
water to remove any residue left by the paste. To do so, use a damp
cloth or sponge and then dab the stain with an absorbent cloth.
Treat chocolate or make-up stains with a washing paste and then
rinse off with water (using a damp sponge).
