Calling
Applies to vehicles: with cell phone package
Introduction
A cell phone is connected to the cell phone package and
operated using the radio system, the multifunction
steering wheel*, or the telephone voice operation.
The cell phone package is located in the center arm rest. You
connect your cell phone using the special cell phone cradle. You can
purchase cell phone cradles from your authorized Audi dealer.
You operate your cell phone using the radio system, the multifunc-
tion steering wheel* ⇒ page 50, or the telephone voice operation
⇒ page 58.
The active audio source is muted during an incoming/outgoing call
and the drive is stopped. Muting is indicated by the crossed-out
speaker symbol. After the call is ended, the audio source is restored
to the previous volume level.
A cell phone in the cell phone cradle transmits and receives through
the external vehicle antenna. This ensures good transmission
quality and prevents cell phone electromagnetic fields in the vehicle
interior.
To use the telephone function of your radio system, a cell phone
must be connected to the cell phone package ⇒ page 39.
After switching off the ignition, the system will remain operable
with the cell phone in the cradle for about 30 minutes (switch-off
1)
delay ).

The switch-off delay can be altered by an authorized Audi dealer.
WARNING
•
Make sure that all persons maintain a minimum distance of 6
in (15 cm) from the antenna, in accordance with the certification
guideline for mobile HF transmitters.
•
Pay attention first and foremost to your driving! As the driver,
you have total responsibility for operating the vehicle safely.
Therefore, when using the functions, make certain that you have
complete control of your vehicle in all traffic situations!
•
The telephone voice operation* should not be used in emergen-
cies, since the voice can change in stressful situations. The result
can be that the desired telephone connection does not go through
under certain circumstances or does not go through quickly
enough. Dial the emergency number manually.
Note
•
Observe all applicable laws for making telephone calls in vehi-
cles.
•
Switch off your cell phone in areas in which the use of cell
phones is prohibited.
•
Switch off your cell phone in locations where there is a danger of
explosion. These locations are not always clearly identified. They
include, for example, filling stations, storage or transportation facil-
ities for fuel or chemicals; locations where there is fuel vapor in the
air (e.g. escaping propane or fuel vapors in vehicles or buildings) or
locations where there are chemicals or large quantities of dust
particles (e.g. from flour or wood) in the air. This also applies to all
other locations where you normally switch off your car's engine.
