interface carefully so it is not damaged.
- Use a USB extension cable to connect devi­
ces that have an integrated USB connector
(such as a USB stick) to prevent damage to
your USB device and the Audi music inter­
face.

can occur inside vehicles can damage mobile
devices and/or impair their performance .
Never leave mobile devices in the vehicle in
extremely high or low temperatures.
@ Tips
-Do not use an additional adapter or USB ex­
tension cable to connect mobile devices to
the Audi music interface that already have a
cable or that must be connected with a USB
adapter( <=>
