The Upgrade procedure

Unload your CD player of all disks

 

The Audi manual on this says that a backup power source should be connected to your battery, instead of this most people just leave the engine running.

 

Warning: Do not use any electrical device while this process is running, so get comfortable first before you begin.

 

Load the first disk in to slot 1

 

wait 30 secs or so and start up the mmi, Press Return and Setup on your center console together.

 

Keep both pressed until you see the Current Config Menu

 

On Screen , bottom left you will see SWUpdate, Press the lower right button around the main control knowb

 

You should now be given an option (usually only 1 option to select the Download Server

 

Press the centre knob to confirm that you want to use the CD for the update

 

The MMI will confirm with "Reading Meta Information"

 

You will now see a list of all the devices that the MMI beleives need to be updated. At this point you can make a selection if you want to particulaly update only 1 device, however we will accept the default and scroll down to Start Download

 

Press The Center knob when Start Download is highlighted

 

You will now be promted not to use any electrical devices

 

then a progress report

 

This will tell you how many devices where updated and if the update was succesfull

 

Scroll down the list to make sure all were OK, if any failed , you can follow the prompt to try it individually again.

 

Once completed , scroll to the bottom and select Restart MMI

 

Remove the disk and place the next disk in,

 

Start the whole procedure again for each disk

 

You may find that dependant on your current version Disk 2 may not have any updates on it for you. Dont worry about this , just continue to the next disk
