Tips
The Navigation System is designed to provide you with
suggested routes in locating addresses, destinations and other
points of interest.
Changes in street names, construction zones, traffic flow, points
of interest or other road system changes are beyond the control of
Audi of America, Inc.
Complete, detailed mapping of lanes, roads, streets, toll roads,
highways, etc., is not possible, therefore you may encounter
discrepancies between the mapping and your actual location.
IntroductionGeneralFig. 112 Display: Example of navigation mapThe Audi Navigation System can help you to reach your destination
without spending a lot of time studying maps.
During the trip you will receive information on vehicle location,
in structions for turning (directio n and dis tance to turn-off), p resen t
distance to destination and estimated time of arrival at destination
in the Navigation System display
fig.112 and in the instrument
cluster display
page 111, fig.114. In addition you will receive
navigation prompts in the form of a spoken announcement
page 112.
There are two possibilities for guide destination:

Your map data DVD includes the continental United States
(excluding Alaska), Hawaii and parts of Canada on a single media
allowing for seamless routing across coverage areas.
Street and city names can be changed. For this reason, there may
be exceptions where the names stored on the DVD do not match the
names that have been changed.
Navigation DVDs can be purchased from an Audi dealer. The
dealer can also provide you with information about navigation DVD
updates.
GPS positioning works in only one direction, i.e. the navigation
system receives data to determine vehicle location, but does not
broadcast data.
Navigation route guidanceFig. 113 Navigation: Example of screen in the Navigation System display
Guidance for your route navigation is provided both visually and
acoustically:
with voice messages
page 112
through a screen in the Navigation System display

through a display in the instrument cluster

(
page 113)Tips
If the recommended route is not followed, the system will calcu-
late a new route from the current location.
It is also possible to start the navigation in demo mode
page 161 for simulation purposes.
