Default How to I change to next song using my steering wheel?

Have tried to have a look at some old post regarding how to change songs using the steering wheel. But it made me more confused.
Can anybody help me? I'm I totally stupid? I do not have the "*" button as you can see.

The scroll wheel on the left side of the steering wheel.
Scroll up and down through the play list.
The playlist displays on the dash
Scroll two clicks down and then press on the scroll wheel to select and play the song.

Default You might have to press the scroll wheel to get the display of songs.

Then you can scroll up or down and select/press-click the scroll wheel to play the song of choice.

Or, if you just want to skip a song, press the right arrow beneath the volume control on the console (if you have one)

Hey everyone, just got my 15 RS5 on Monday, I haven’t introduced myself yet because it’s been raining in CT so my car is filthy so I didn’t want to post until I have some nice clean shots.

Anyway, when I’m playing songs via Bluetooth off my iPhone, I can see the current song playing in the DIC but when I scroll using the left steering wheel button it doesn’t scroll through my songs. Is there something wrong with my functions or is it because it’s bluetooth?

Thanks, guys. That's a good alternative to using the **** on the console. I learned something new today!

Gotta say... my S5 is my first Audi... and it's little engineering things like being able to use the left rotating control (and then push to select) or the small chrome **** down on the console to toggle up/down on songs or stations... and control volume (like the right-side rotating control on steering wheel that has convinced me that Audis are one of the best when it comes to design...and that JUST for the MMI!! Then add the gonzo SC 3.0 engine in Dynamic/Sport mode and I can't get the dang grin off my face!!
