ly unscrew the cap to the left until you feel re­
sistance¢ &_ .
.. Push the release button again and remove the
cap completely .
.. Make sure that the fluid level remains stable .

Coolant loss usually indicates there is a leak . Im­
mediately drive your vehicle to an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Aud i Serv ice Facility

cooling system is not leaking, a loss can come
from the coolant boiling through overheating

not open the coolant expansion tank cap

risk of burns .
-The coolant additive and the coolant can be
dangerous to your health . For this reason,
keep the coolant in the original container
and away from children. There is a risk of
poisoning.
-When working in the engine compartment,
remember that the radiator fan can switch
on even if the ignition is switched off, which
increases the risk of injury.
CD Note
Do not add coolant if the expansion tank is
empty. There may be air i n the cooling sys­
tem, which increases the risk of engine dam­
age . If this is the case, do not continue driv­
ing . See an authorized Audi dea ler or author­
ized Aud i Service Facility for assistance.

For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you.
It is becoming increasing ly more and more diff i­
cult to replace vehicle light bulbs s ince in many
cases, othe r parts of the car must fi rst be re­
moved before you are able to get to the bu lb .
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 ho lders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, parts must be
correct ly taken apart and then properly put back
together to he lp prevent breakage of parts and
380
long term damage from water that can enter
housings that have not been properly resealed.
Fo r you r safety, we recommend that you have
you r autho rized Audi dea ler replace any bulbs for
you, since your dealer has the proper tools, the
correct bu lbs and the expertise.
Ga s di sc harg e la mp s (Xe non ligh ts):
Due to the h igh electr ical voltage, have the bulbs
rep laced by a qualified technician . Headlights

needs to be replaced.
A WARNING
Changing Xenon lamps without the necessary
equipment can cause serious personal injury.
-Bulbs are pressurized and can explode when
be ing changed. Potent ial r isk of injury!

bulbs (Xenon light) life-threatening injuries
can result from improper handling of the
high-vo ltage portions of such lamps!
-Only your authorized Audi dealer or quali­

gas discharge lamps . There are parts with
sharp edges on the openings and on the bulb holders that can cause serious cuts. If
you are uncerta in about what to do, have

ment is a hazardous area to work
i n c:> & in
