Applies to: Audi Q7s with Wi-Fi
The MMI s Wi-Fi audio player media source allows you to connect and operate your Wi-Fi media player (e.g. smartphone) to play music wirelessly from your player s media centre. The media player is connected via the MMI s Wi-Fi hotspot. A UPnP server app or an integrated UPnP/DLNA server on the media player is required to access the media centre of your media player. In addition, you can use the Audi MMI connect app to access Internet radio programmes*.
Important: The Wi-Fi function of the media player must be switched on. The Audi MMI connect app or a UPnP server app must be installed on your media player, or you must be using a UPnP/DLNA server integrated in the media player.
- To connect a media player: Select the MEDIA button. Press the left control button repeatedly until the source overview link► is displayed. Select and confirm Wi-Fi audio player -8- Fig. ►.
- You may need to select and confirm Wi-Fi off > Activate Wi-Fi to switch Wi-Fi on in the MMI. Select Wi-Fi settings if necessary. Use the settings of the Wi-Fi hotspot for the media player you are using.
- To start the Wi-Fi audio player: Start the Audi MMI connect app or a UPnP server app, or enable media sharing on your media player. The first song from your device s media centre will be played.

WARNING
- Do not allow the features of the Wi-Fi hotspot to distract you from watching the traffic – taking your eyes off the road can cause an accident.
- Laptop computers and similar devices can only be operated safely when the Audi Q7 is stationary because of their weight; any loose objects can be catapulted through the Audi Q7 in an accident and cause serious injuries. Always make sure that such devices are securely stowed while you are driving.
- No Wi-Fi devices may be used from the front seats in the areas around the airbags while the Audi Q7 is being driven. Please also observe the safety warnings on link►.
CAUTION
Please note that it is your responsibility to take precautions regarding data protection, anti-virus protection and protection against loss of data on mobile devices used to connect to the Internet via the Wi-Fi hotspot.
Note
- The Wi-Fi audio player only needs to be connected to the MMI via the Wi-Fi hotspot once. Depending on the device, a media player that has already been bonded will automatically be reconnected to the Wi-Fi hotspot of the MMI when it is within range.
- Inserting or removing a SIM card from the SIM card reader* causes the Wi-Fi connection to be reconfigured. This may cause a short interruption in the audio playback of some media players.
- Please also observe the notes in the chapter link►.
- Please note that the Wi-Fi connection does not automatically enable you to use the Internet. Further information can be found from link► onwards.
- To avoid interruptions in audio playback, deactivate the energy saving function on your media player, or connect the player to a charger.
- The time it takes to load audio files depends on the media player in use and on the number of files stored.
- A maximum of 2,000 entries per directory are shown on the MMI.
- Audi dealerships will be able to provide you with further information on Wi-Fi audio players.
