Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more diffi-
cult to replace vehicle light bulbs since in many
cases, other parts of the car must first be re-
moved before you are able to get to the bulb.
This applies especially to the light bulbs in the
front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, parts must be
correctly taken apart and then properly put back
together to help prevent breakage of parts and >

Emergency situations


such as the engine block or transmission
are removed.
— When removing heavy components like
these, anchor vehicle to hoist or add corre-
sponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle might tilt or
slip
off the hoist, causing serious personal
injury.

@ Note
— Be aware of the following points before Lift-
ing the vehicle:
— The vehicle should never be lifted or
jacked up from underneath the engine oil
pan, the transmission housing, the front
or rear axle or the body side members.
This could lead to serious damage.
—To avoid damage to the underbody or
chassis frame, a rubber pad must be in-
serted between the floor jack and the lift
points.
— Before driving over a workshop hoist,
check that the vehicle weight does not
exceed the permissible lifting capacity of
the hoist.
— Before driving over a workshop hoist, en-
sure that there is sufficient clearance be-
tween the hoist and low parts of the ve-
hicle.
