Notes
• Do not wash the vehicle in direct sun­
light.
• If the vehicle is rinsed with a hose, do not
direct the water into the lock cylinders -
otherwise they may freeze up in the winter.
�W ARNING
• Do not wash, wax or dry the ve­
hicle with the engine running.
• Do not clean the underside of
chassis, fenders, wheel covers,
etc. without protecting your
hands and arms. You may cut your­
self on sharp-edged metal parts.
• Moisture and ice on brakes may
affect braking efficiency. Test the
brakes carefully after each vehicle
wash.
214 Washing
your vehicle with a power
washer
If you use a power washer, please note the
following:
• Always follow the operating instructions
for the power washer -especially for pres­
sure and spraying distance.
• Make sure that the jet on the spray hose
produces a "fan shape" spray. Do not use
a jet which sprays the water out in a direct
stream or one that has a rota ting jet.
• Water temperature should not exceed
140 °F (60 °C).
�W ARNING
Never wash tires with a jet that
sprays the water out in a direct
stream. This could invisibly dam­
age and weaken the tires, even if
they are sprayed from a relatively
long distance for a vary short
amount of time. Damaged and
weakened tires can fail and cause
accidents and personal injury. Headli
ghts
Do not clean your headlights with a dry
towel or sponge. They must be cleaned
with a moistened towel.
Never use a sponge designed for removing
dried-on insects, a kitchen scrubber or any
other similar product since the lens surface
can be damaged by scrat ching and scour­
ing.
When using high-pressure washing equip­
ment or steam-cl eaning units, never spray
the vehicle with the nozzle close the vehicle
surface and never aim the spray at the same
point for a relatively long period of time.
Polishing Please refer to the imp ortant information on
page 212.
Polish your vehicle only if the paint has lost
its shine and the gloss cannot be brought
back with wax. If the polish used doesn't
contain preservative compounds, the paint
must be waxed afterwards.
Do not treat matte- pain�ed and plas­
tic parts with polish or wax.

----------------------DO-IT-YOURSELF SERVICE
Replacing bulbs
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 bulb. This applies especially to the
light bulbs in the front of your car which you
can only reach through the engine compart­
ment.
For your safety, we recommend that you
have your authorized Audi Dealer replace
any bulbs for you, since your dealer has nec­
essary tools, the correct bulbs and the ex­
pertise.
g Always heed all WARNINGS
� on page 232. Gas
discharge lamps
(Xenon lights)•
Yo ur vehicle may be equipped with gas dis­
charge lamps. Due to the high elec trical
voltage, have the bulbs exchanged by a
qualified technician.
Headlights with xenon light are identified by
the high voltage sticker(see symbol above).
� WARNING
Only your authorized Audi Dealer
or a qualified workshop should
change the bulbs in gas discharge
lamps (xenon light). Due to the
high voltage, improper handling
can cause serious personal injury. Insta

replacing a radio
f you wish to install a radio or replace the
factory installed radio, please note the fol­
lowing:
• The factory installed radio connectors are
designed for Genuine Audi Radios.
When installing a different radio, difficulties
could arise such as:
- the radio may not fit into the space pro­
vided
- the electrical connections may not be
compat ible
- different connector terminals may be
needed.
• Therefore, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi Dealer install or re­
place the radiO.
They are the most familiar with the techni­
cal features of your vehicle. They also offer
Genuine Audi Radios with the necessary
installation components and instructions.
� WARNING
Improperly installing a radio could
cause a short circuit.
This could result in an electrical
fire.
