Replacing  light  bulbs 
For  your  safety,  we recommend  that  you  have 
your  authorized  Audi dealer  replace  any bulbs  for 
you. 
I t  is becoming  increasing ly 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  wh ich  you  can  only  reach 
through  the  eng ine  compartment. 
Sheet  metal  and  bulb  ho lders  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 
long  term  damage  from  water  that  can  enter 
housings  that  have  not  been  properly  resealed. 
For your  safety,  we  recommend  that  you  have 
your  author ized  Audi  dealer  replace  any  bulbs  for 
you,  s ince  your  dealer has  the  proper  tools, the 
;;§ correct  bu lbs  and  the  expert ise .

bu lbs  (Xenon  light)  life-threatening  injuries
