D) AUDI AG provides access to services from third party pro-
viders. Permanent availability cannot be guaranteed, be-
cause that depends on the third party provider.
The map view is based on data packets received
from the Internet in the form of satellite images,
which are then combined with the roadways from
the Standard map view. There are two gigabytes
of memory space in the MMI memory that can be
used to temporarily store the map or navigation
data that was received. This is roughly the
amount required for the map/navigation data for
a 2,485 mile (4,000 km) route. As long as the
satellite images loaded for route guidance are
stored, you can use them without having an ac-
tive data connection.
G) Tips
—The stored satellite map data ) can be de-
leted through Factory settings > Navigation
and online memory > page 172.
—The satellite map”) is updated regularly
whenever the function is opened. The proc-
ess may take several seconds.
—When the satellite map”) display is switched
on with the 3D position map type, the map
display automatically switches to the 2D
