Navigation (NAV)
General safety precautions Be sure that you always have complete control of your vehicle in all
traffic situations when using navigation.
The driver is completely responsible for traffic safety
even when driving with the Navigation System active. WARNING
· Always obey traffic laws, signs and signals, they take prece-
dence over navigation system recommendations.
· Always concentrate on driving and pay attention to the road,
listen to the voice prompts and never let yourself be distracted by
the map display on the screen Þ page 9.
· Always remember that data on the Navigation DVD can differ
from the actual situation because of insufficient data or because
the road or traffic routing has changed since the area was
mapped. Do a “reality check” and ignore the navigation system
recommendation if necessary.
· Always remember that even if one-way streets, pedestrian
zones, etc. are stored on the Navigation DVD, traffic routing is
subject to constant change. Traffic signals, turning lanes or prohi-
bitions, stop and yield signs, no parking and similar zones as well
as narrow lanes are not covered by the navigation system.

Introduction
· The Navigation System is designed to provide you with
suggested routes in locating addresses, destinations and other General
points of interest.
· Changes in street names, construction zones, traffic flow, points
of interest or other road system changes are beyond the control of
Audi of America, Inc.
· Complete, detailed mapping of lanes, roads, streets, toll roads,
highways, etc., is not possible, therefore you may encounter
discrepancies between the mapping and your actual location.
The Audi Navigation System can help you to reach your destination
without spending a lot of time studying maps.
During the trip you will receive information on vehicle location,
instructions for turning (direction and distance to turn-off), present
distance to destination and estimated time of arrival at destination
in the Navigation System display Þ fig. 112 and in the instrument
cluster display Þ page 111, fig. 114. In addition you will receive
navigation prompts in the form of a spoken announcement
Þ page 112.
There are two possibilities for guide destination:
· Route without stopover (Single destination mode)
· Route with stopover (Route plan) How does the Navigation System work?

Tips
· Snow and other objects on the GPS antenna or screening by
trees and large buildings can interfere with satellite reception and
make it more different to determine vehicle location. If several satel-
lites are turned off or disabled, this may result in interference with
GPS reception and make it more difficult to determine vehicle loca-

The Demo mode provides a simulation of the route you entered. This
allows you to effectively plan and display your destination by
showing specific map content Þ page 155 or route criteria
Þ page 141.
Map type “Position 3D” Þ page 154 is not shown in Demo mode. If
you have selected map type “Position 3D”, the simulation is shown
in map type “current position”.
Fig. 178 Setup Navigation: Set direction of position
You can calculate the route from another position than the present
vehicle location.
We recommend entering the data for the starting point into a desti-
nation input menu Þ page 117, fig. 121 before you select the Set
position/direction. That way, the system will jump to the point
entered in the map display. It is easier to set the location on the map
from this point.
You can search for the starting point using the crosshairs
Þ page 149.
You can enter the starting point manually to calculate future routes.
When you have set the location manually on the map, you can
switch to a destination input menu to enter the destination data.
