Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
To make phone calls in your vehicle using the
MMI, connect your cell phone to the MMI via
Bluetooth.
Handsfree
After you have connected your mobile device to
the MMI via Bluetooth, you can use the handsfree
system and operate telephone functions through
your MMI. You can make calls using the antenna
on your mobile device.
Z\ WARNING
— Medical experts warn that mobile devices
can interfere with the function of pacemak-
ers. Always maintain a minimum distance of
about 8 inches (20 cm) between the cell
phone antenna 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 104 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 92,
Traffic safety information.

@) Note
Always follow the information found in >@ in
General information on page 125.
G) Tips
—To learn which Bluetooth connections and
which of the functions in your mobile device
are supported, check with your mobile de-
vice service provider or the database for mo-
bile devices at www.audiusa.com/
bluetooth.
— The Bluetooth connection range is limited
to inside the vehicle. It can also be affected
by local conditions and interference with
other devices.

ber of contacts.
@) Note
Always follow the information found in >@ in
General information on page 125.
@) Tips
— Making phone calls through the MMI is only
possible using the Handsfree Bluetooth pro-
file.
— You can apply additional settings to con-
nected mobile devices using the connection
manager = page 172.
— 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.
— Authorizing the MMI connection on your
mobile device will make it possible to con-
nect automatically.
— Pay attention to any system prompts dis-
played on your cell phone, for example if
the system should connect automatically in
the future. Depending on the cell phone,
you may also need to download the directo-
ry and confirm access to your text messages
separately.
— 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.
— You can obtain more information from your
mobile device service provider or from your
mobile device user guide. For information
on using the telephone, visit www.audiusa.
com/bluetooth or contact an authorized Au-
di dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
— Applies to: vehicles without secondary
phone: Several cell phones can be paired to
the MMI, but only one cell phone can be ac-
tively connected to the MMI.
— Applies to: vehicles without secondary
phone: If a Bluetooth device is already con-
nected to the MMI, it will be disconnected
when another device connects to the MMI.

Telephone
Operating two mobile devices through the
i
You can connect two cell phones to the MMI, for
example your business cell phone as the primary
phone and your private cell phone as the secon-
dary phone. You can be reached in your vehicle
through both cell phones.
The first connected cell phone is displayed as the
primary phone in the MMI. The second cell phone
is connected as the secondary phone.
The directory from the connected primary phone
will always be displayed. If you would like to use
the directory from the secondary phone, you
must switch the primary and secondary phone
=> page 112.
Connecting a cell phone as the primary
phone
Connect your cell phone to the MMI via Blue-
tooth. The first connected cell phone is displayed
as the Primary phone in the MMI.
See > page 110, Connecting a cell phone using
Bluetooth.
Connecting a cell phone as the secondary
phone
Requirement: a cell phone must be connected to
the MMI as the primary phone.
Select: [MENU] button > Telephone > right con-
trol button > Connect secondary telephone.
See > page 110, Connecting a cell phone using
Bluetooth.
Example: you have connected your business cell
phone to the MMI as the primary phone and your
private cell phone as the secondary phone. To be
able to call contacts from your private cell phone
directory, you must switch the primary and sec-
ondary phone, since the directory from the pri-
mary phone is always displayed.
Switching the primary and secondary phone
Requirement: a primary phone and a secondary
phone must
be connected.

Switch primary and second. phone: select:
MENU} button > Telephone > right control but-
ton > Switch primary and second. phone.
G) Tips
— Please note that only the directory from the
primary phone is always displayed.
— To view if your cell phone is connected as
the primary or secondary phone, go to the
Connection manager > page 172. Or: the
device name of the connected primary
phone is shown in the Telephone menu
(such as myPhone).
— If the primary phone does not connect auto-
matically to the MMI when the ignition is
switched on, for example because it is out
of the vehicle range or the Bluetooth func-
tion is switched off, then a previously paired
secondary phone is automatically connected
as the primary phone.
— You can send and receive messages on your
primary phone as well as on your secondary
phone > page 114, fig. 111. You do not
need to switch your primary phone and sec-
ondary phone for this.
— You can also make your connected cell
phone the default phone by selecting Set as
default telephone in the Connection man-
ager > page 174.

Using the Audi phone
box
Applies to: vehicles with Audi phone box
You can charge your mobile device battery using
the Audi phone box. You can make calls through
the exterior antenna* on the vehicle. Using the
external antenna* helps when there is a low sig-
nal and also provides better reception quality.
Fig. 110 Storage compartment in the center armrest: Audi
phone box with connections
Requirement: a cell phone must be connected
through Bluetooth > page 110.
— Connecting to the external vehicle antenna:
lay the cell phone on the center of the cell
phone symbol in the Audi phone box with the
display facing up. Make sure there are no ob-
jects between the Audi phone box and the mo-
bile device > fig. 110.
— Charging a cell phone wirelessly: place a Qi-ca-
pable ) cell phone centered on the symbol in
the Audi phone box with the display facing up
> fig. 110. The cell phone will charge.
— Charging a cell phone using the USB adapter:

driving.
—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.

— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
