Fuses and bulbs

ZA\ WARNING
Do not repair fuses and never replace a blown
fuse with one that has a higher amp rating.
This can cause damage to the electrical sys-
tem and increases the risk of fire.
@) Note
If a new fuse burns out again shortly after you
have installed it, have the electrical system
checked as soon as possible by an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty.
@) Tips
— The following table does not list fuse loca-
tions that are not used.
