 Dear driver ,

This Quick Reference Guide provides

you with a brief overview of selected
procedures and functions in your vehicle.
It does not replace the Owner's Manual
with its important explanations and
warnings.

The Owner's Manual provides detailed

information about your vehicle. You can
find information on the radio, CD player,
navigation system, and telephone in the
MMI Owner's Manual.

We hope you enjoy driving your new

Audi and we wish you safe and pleasant
motoring.
AUD!
