@) Tips
Because of your vehicle's aluminum body de-
sign, all service and repair procedures affect-
ing the body should be performed by an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Serv-
ice Facility, who will perform the work accord-
ing to Audi factory specifications. Only Audi
Genuine Parts are used when Audi experts
perform repair or service procedures. Failure
to use Audi Genuine Parts or Audi Genuine Ac-
cessories or performing repairs incorrectly
may result in severe vehicle damage, such as
corrosion.
Accessories and parts
Consult with an authorized Audi dealer or author-
ized Audi Service Facility before purchasing ac-
cessories or replacement parts. Audi recom-
mends having your vehicle serviced by an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty and using Audi Genuine Parts and Audi Genu-

Audi does not endorse the use of products and
accessories that it has not evaluated, even if the
product is approved by a certified testing agency
or government agency.

ZA WARNING
— Installing unapproved accessories or incor-
rect replacement parts can cause vehicle
damage and can increase the risk of an acci-
dent.
— On vehicles that have factory-installed li-
cense plate brackets on the front of the ve-
hicle, the brackets may only be replaced
with ones that are the same size and made
of the same material. Do not install any li-
cense plate brackets on the front of vehicles
that do not have factory-installed brackets.
Otherwise, the function of the system could
be impaired.

@) Note
A correctly-installed exterior antenna is re-
quired for operating radio equipment in the
vehicle. Otherwise, the increased electromag-
310
netic waves can cause malfunctions in the ve-
hicle. Observe the regulations in the country
where the vehicle is being operated and the
instructions from the radio equipment manu-
facturer.
