Fuses
Replacing a fuse
A problem in the electrical system may be caused by a
blown fuse.
Fig. 244 Instrument
panel left: Face cover
- Locate the fuse which belongs to the component which
failed.
- Switch off the ignition and the electrical component affected.
- Carefully pry the face cover
off the instrument panel using
a screwdriver => fig. 244 .
- Remove the plastic clip from its retainer in the face cover,
place it over the questionable fuse and remove the fuse.
- Replace a blown fuse (recognizable by the melted metal
strip inside) with a fuse of the
same amperage.
The individual circuits are protected by fuses. The fuse panels with
the fuses are located on the left and right front faces of the instru-
Vehicle OP-eration
ment panel behind a cover and in the right storage area in the
luggage compartment.
There is a plastic clip in the cover on the left side of the instrument
panel, which can be used to remove the fuses. You will also find a
label on both covers in the instrument panel with the fuse layout for
the corresponding fuse panel.
& WARNING
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
• A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical
part and cause a fire.
0 Note
• On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin
foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the elec­
trical circuit or cause fire .
• If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have
the cause of the repeated short circuit or overload located and fixed.
Ii] Tips
You are well advised to keep a supply of spare fuses in your vehicle .
Fuses with the proper ampere ratings are available at your authorized
Audi dealer. •

Bulbs
Replacing bulbs
F or your safety, we recommend that you have your autho­
ri zed Audi dealer replace any bulbs for you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more diff icult to rep lace vehicle
ligh t bulbs since in many cases, other parts o f the car must fi rst be
removed before yo u are able to get to the bulb . This applies especially
to the light bu lbs in the front of your car which you can on ly reach
throug h the engi ne compartment .
Sheet meta l and bu lb holders can have sharp edges that can ca use
ser ious cuts, parts must be co rrectly t aken ap art and the n properly
put back together to he lp prevent breakage of parts and long term
d am age fro m water t hat c an enter housings that have no t been p rop­
erly resea led.
For your safety, we recommend that you have you r authorized Audi
dealer replace any bulbs fo r you, since yo ur dealer has t he p roper
too ls, the correct bu lbs and the expertise.
Gas discharge lamp s (Xenon light s)* :
Due to the high electr ica l voltage , have the bulbs replaced by a qual­
ified technicia n. Hea dlights w ith Xenon light are ident ified by the
high voltage sticker .
& WARNING
Changing Xenon lamps w ithout the necessary equipment can
cause serious personal injury.
• Bulbs are pressur ized and can explode when being changed.
Potential risk of injury !
• On vehicles equipped with gas discharge bulbs (Xenon light )*
lif e-threatening injurie s can re sult from improper handling of the
high- voltage port ions of such lamps ! .,_
Vehicle care Do-it-yourself service Technical data

-Fuses and bulbs Pf":I..._ ______________ _
& WARNING (continued)
• Only your authorized Audi dealer or a qual ified workshop
should change the bulbs in gas discharge lamps. There are parts
with sharp edges on the openings and on the bulb holders th at can
cause serious cuts . If you are uncertain about what to do, have the
work performed by an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified
workshop . Serious personal injury may re sult from improperly
perfo rmed work.
[ i ] Tips
• If you still prefer to rep lace the light bu lbs yourself, be aware that
t he engine comp artme nt is a haza rdous area to work in =>
page 272,
"Eng ine compartment"=> &.
• It is best to ask yo ur autho riz e d Au di d ealer w henever you w ant to
change a bulb. •
