Advice
On some mobile phones or mobile devices, playback is not possi­
bLe if the battery charge is very low (less than 5% of its capacity).
After it has been plugged in, the mobile device will only be recog­
nised as a source in the MMI again when it has sufficient battery
charge.
The Bluetooth audio player function is switched on. Switch the
function off
^>page 258
when you are not using a Bluetooth au­
dio player.
Reset the Media settings to the factory settings
<=>page
256.
External audio player is selected as the source when the adapter
cable is being connected. Activate the mute function (see

tapage
261) or another audio source (e.g.
ipage
228, Calling up
the radio menu) before connecting/disconnecting your mobile de­

vice.

To ensure problem-free playback, only one interface should be in
use at any one time.
Some mobile phones may experience audio playback problems if
the Internet connection in the vehicle was not established via the
SIM card reader* or embedded SIM card of the MMI controL
con­

sole while the mobile data option is activated on the mobile

phone.
Deactivate the mobile data option on your mobiLe phone.
When importing playlists, you must copy all files yourself.

Close the Audi MMI connect app on the connected devices (e.g.
smartphones) that you do not want to use as the Wi-Fi audio play­
er*. Also close any UPnP server apps on the devices, or disable me­
dia sharing on any integrated UPnP/DLNA servers. Connect the de­
sired device as a Wi-Fi audio player*
^>page

The MMI connection switch on the status screen of the Audi MMI
connect app must be switched on to establish a connection with
