MMI: Multi Media Interface
The Audi Multi Media Interface (MMI) combines different
communication and entertainment systems in your Audi.
With your MMI you can listen to the radio or CDs, watch television*
and even connect portable players*1). The navigation system*
guides you directly to your destination. You can also follow your
individual route plan with up to three stopovers. Information about traffic conditions is taken into account when calculating your route.
Of course, you can use many your mobile phone's* functions in
conjunction with the MMI. Alternatively, a handset is available for
the integrated Bluetooth car telephone kit*. In addition, the MMI
combines various driver assistance systems of your vehicle.
You can access the comprehensive infotainment system in several
ways. On the one hand, you can reach all functions via the MMI
control console with its intuitive and standardised operation
concept. On the other hand, you can access frequently used MMI
functions via the multi-function steering wheel or the speech
dialogue system.
Notes on traffic safety
You should only perform important functions, e.g. enter a naviga-
tion destination, while the vehicle is stationary. Please always bear
in mind: Be prepared to stop operating the system in the interest of
your safety and that of other road users.
WARNING
•Today's driving conditions require your full attention. As the
driver, you have full responsibility for the safety of the vehicle and
other road users. For this reason, only operate the MMI when the
traffic conditions allow you to do so safely and when you can
maintain proper control of your vehicle - risk of injury.
•The volume of the audio sources (radio, CD player, etc.) 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 acci-
dent.
•Please heed laws regulating the use of telephones in vehicles.

Phone pre-installation
Applies to vehicles: with phone pre-installation
Introduction
A mobile phone can be connected to the on-board phone
system and operated via the MMI control console, the
multi-function steering wheel or the speech control
system.
The phone pre-installation is located in the centre armrest. A special
mobile phone adapter is needed in order to connect your mobile
phone to this interface
page 20. Mobile phone adapters are avail-
able from Audi dealers or specialist retailers.
You can operate your mobile phone using the MMI control console

page 87, the multi-function steering wheel*
page 132, the
speech dialogue system*
page 169 or the telephone speech
control system*
page 160. You can also use the talk button *
on the mobile phone adapter to answer and end a call.
When your mobile phone is in the mobile phone adapter, call
signals are sent and received via the external car aerial. This ensures
good transmission quality and reduces radiation emissions in the
interior of the vehicle.
WARNING
•Please note that persons should maintain a minimum distance
of 15 cm from the aerial as prescribed by the certification regula-
tions for mobile high frequency transmission devices.
•Please direct your full attention to the road at all times! As the
driver, you have full responsibility for the safety of the vehicle and
other road users. For this reason, you should only use the func-
tions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the
vehicle in all situations - accident risk!
•The speech dialogue system*
page 169 and the telephone
speech control system*
page 160 must not be used in cases of
emergency, since the voice changes in stressful situations. This
could result in a failed or delayed telephone connection. Always
dial emergency numbers manually!
Caution
•Always obey the laws regulating the use of telephones in vehi-
cles.
•Always switch off your telephone in areas where using mobile
phones is prohibited.
•Switch off the telephone in all areas where there may be a risk of
explosion. Remember that these areas may not always be
adequately marked. Such places are filling stations, fuel and chem-
ical storage facilities or transport vehicles and other places where
fumes, chemicals (e.g. from leaking propane or fuel vapours in vehi-
cles or buildings) or large quantities of dust particles (e.g. from flour
or wood) could accumulate in the air. This warning also applies to
all other places where you would normally switch off your engine.
Note
•In order to use the telephone functions, your mobile phone must
be compatible with the phone pre-installation in the vehicle, and the
functions must be supported by your service provider.
•For up-to-date information on the phone pre-installation, please
ask an Audi dealer or specialist retailer.

2).
•If you use mobile phones in the vehicle this can generate electro-
magnetic fields.
−For this reason, you should always operate mobile phones
with an external aerial. This also applies to mobile phones used
in Bluetooth mode. The external aerial directs the electromag-
netic fields to the exterior, which reduces the field strength in the
vehicle interior.
−If retrofitting an external aerial, please ensure that it is
installed correctly.

Bluetooth car telephone kit 24
Bluetooth car telephone kit
Applies to vehicles: with Bluetooth car telephone kit
Introduction
The car telephone kit has a universal interface, which
means that different types of mobile phone can be
connected using Bluetooth technology.
The car telephone kit is approved for use in GSM 900 and GSM 1800
networks. The functionality of SIM cards for UMTS networks may be
limited in certain circumstances.
Bluetooth profiles
Bluetooth devices use profiles to communicate with each other. The
SIM Access Profile and the Hands-Free Profile are used to exchange
data between Bluetooth phones and the car telephone kit. Please
check which profiles are supported by your mobile phone.
Mobile phones which support both the Hands-Free Profile and the
SIM Access Profile can use all of the telephone functions on the car
telephone kit. These telephone functions are appended with the text
“Mobile phone with SIM Access Profile” in this Operating Manual.
Mobile phones which support only the Hands-Free Profile cannot
use all of the telephone functions on the car telephone kit. These
telephone functions are appended with the text “Mobile phone with
Hands-Free Profile” in this Operating Manual.
Mobile phone with SIM Access Profile
SIM Access Profile means that a car telephone kit can access the SIM
card on a Bluetooth-capable mobile phone via a Bluetooth connec-
tion.
You can use your mobile phone's SIM card, phone book and tele-
phone functions on the car telephone kit as long as your mobile
phone is fully compatible with the car telephone kit. Telephone calls
are directed via the external aerial. This reduces the radiation inside
the vehicle and improves the quality of the telephone connection.Handset* for the car telephone kit
If your vehicle is equipped with a car telephone kit and handset*,
you can insert a SIM card in the handset*. Alternatively, you can
bond a mobile phone (with SIM Access Profile) to the car telephone
kit and use the mobile phone's SIM card functions on the handset*.
Please refer to
page 27 for information on how to set up the
system.
Mobile phone with Hands-Free Profile
Hands-Free Profile means that a mobile phone can be connected to
the car telephone kit via Bluetooth. The handsfree system on the car
telephone kit can then be used to make phone calls. Not all of the
telephone functions on your car telephone kit will be available.
Please refer to
page 28 for information on how to set up the
system.
The external car aerial is not used. The handset* cannot be used.
