CONTROLS
AND EQUIPMENT---------------------
Turn signals, headlight dimmer switch lever
Turn signals
The turn signals only work when the ignition
is switched on.
The turn signal indicator light flashes when
you operate the lever (ignition on).
Lever up
Lever down
15 6 -
right turn signals
- left turn signals. The
turn signals are cancelled automatically
when you have completed a turn (for exam­
ple, when turning a corner), and the steering
wheel returns to the straight ahead posi­
tion.
If a turn signal fails, the indicator light
flashes about twice as fast. A light bulb may
have to be replaced.

VEHICL E
CA RE-------------------------
Weatherstrips
Keep silicone sprays off the wind­
shield to avoid wiper smear in rain.
To seal properly, weatherstrips around
hood, rear lid, doors, etc., must be pliable.
Spray with silicone or coat with talcum pow­
der or glycerine to reta in flexibility of the
rubber and to protect against freezing in the
w1nter.
Dull finishes and plastics
Plas .tic pa �s. such as light bulb lenses, dec­
orative stnpes, panels, bumpers, etc., will
come clean with regular washing. Should
additional cleaning or spot remova l be nec­
essar y, use a soft brush or cloth soaked with
a mild detergent solution. Then rinse thor­
oughly and imme diately with clear water.
Do not use anyth ing which could
mar the plastic or dull finished sur­
faces, such as wax, polish, abrasive
detergents or chemical cleaning sol­
vents.
216 Bright
metal trim
Bright or black anodized metal trim will
come clean with regular washing. Remove
spots or dirt from chrome and stainless
steel with a chrome cleaner. Apply a
chrome polish for continued luster and
protec tion.
Steel wheels
Always include the hub caps and wheel
rims when washing your vehicle to remove
road dirt, salt sprays and brake dust. If nec­
essary, use a commercial wheel cleaner to
remove accumulated brake dust. Paint
scratches should be touched up as soon as
possible to prevent corrosion.
Light alloy wheels
To preserve the decorative appearance of
the light alloy wheels, some special care is
necessary. In addition to road dirt and salt
sprays, brake dust is also corrosive. If left on
too long, brake dust can cause pitting. Wash
the wheels with a sponge or hose brush ev­
ery other week. Road salt
should be removed weekly with
an acid free cleaning solution. Every three
months (after regular cleaning) coat the
wheels with petroleum jelly or car wax. Rub
it in firmly with a soft cloth. Never use abra­
sive or metal polishing cleaning agents.
� WARNING
Moisture, ice, and road salt on
brakes may affect braking effi­
ciency. Test the brakes carefully
after each washing. Always heed
WA RNING on page 203.

----------------------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
lling I
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.
