Bulbs
Replacing 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
difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs since in many cases, other parts of the car must first
be removed before you are able to get to the
bu lb. Thi s applies especially to the light bu lbs
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 ser ious cuts, parts must
be correctly taken apart and then properly put
back together to help prevent breakage of
parts and long term damage from water that
can enter housings that have not been proper·
ly resealed.
F or your safety, we recommend that you have
your author ized Audi dealer replace any bulbs
for you, since your dealer has the proper tools,
the correct bu lbs and the expertise.
Ga s discharge lamps (Xenon lights}*:
Due to the high electrical vo ltage, have the
bu lbs rep laced by a qualified technician.
H eadlights with Xenon l ight are identified by
the high voltage sticker.
A WARNING
Changing Xenon lamps without the neces­
sary equipment can cause serious personal
in jury.
- Bulbs are pressurized and can explode
when being changed. Potential risk of in­
jury!
- On vehicles equipped with gas discharge
bulbs (Xenon light)* life-threatening in­
juries can result from improper handling
of the high-voltage portions of such
lamps!
- Only your authorized Audi dealer or a
qualified workshop should change the
bu lbs in gas discharge lamps. There are
pa rts with sharp edges on the openings
and on the bulb holders that can cause
serious cuts. If you are uncertain about
what to do, have the work performed by
an author ized Audi dealer or other quali­
fied workshop. Ser ious personal injury
may result from improperly performed
work.
(D Tips
- If you st ill prefer to replace the light
bulbs yourself, be aware that the engine
compartment is a hazardous area to
work in
9 page 213, Engine compart­
ment
9 Lr:,. .
-It is best to ask your authorized Audi
dealer whenever you want to change a
bulb.
