Keeping your hands on the wheel

A built in hands-free phone system is available as an option on the S5 Sportback.

The options

Mobile phone preparation

This option provides a Bluetooth connection for your mobile phone. This means that your phone can be operated using the multifunction steering wheel in conjunction with the driver information system. The mobile phone’s antenna and battery will be operating at full capacity when in use.

In addition to standard hands-free functionality such as accepting/rejecting calls and hands-free communication, mobile phone preparation provides direct access to entries and phone numbers stored in the address book of compatible phones. 

Mobile phone preparation high

This innovative phone solution offers an unprecedented level of convenience, as it becomes possible to literally leave your phone ‘in your jacket pocket’ and still operate it using the car controls as outlined above. In effect, the mobile phone in your jacket pocket serves merely as a mobile SIM card reader. The phone calls are made using the car so mobile phone battery life is greatly increased and reception is improved as you are using the car’s antenna.

Mobile phone preparation low

Mobile phone preparation low comprises a user-friendly hands-free unit, a high-performance external aerial and a charger. Your mobile phone is paired with the system by way of Bluetooth or a cradle adapter which can be obtained from your Audi Dealer. The big advantage of this system is that the cradle adaptor uses the cars external antenna and power supply to make and receive calls which improves call quality. The phone can also be operated from the multi-media interface as well as via the multifunction steering wheel in conjunction with the driver information system.
