Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you.
It is becom ing increasingly more and more diffi­
cu lt to replace vehicle light bulbs since in many
cases, other parts of the car must first be re­
moved before you are ab le to get to the bulb.
This applies especially to the light bulbs in the

Consum er Info rmation
Technical Modifications
Our guidelines must be complied with when tech­
nical modifications are made .
Always consult an authorized Audi dealer before
starting work on any modificat ions.
This will he lp ensure that vehicle function, per ­
formance and safety are not impaired
c> &. .
Attempting to work on e lectronic components
and the software used with them can cause mal­
functions. Because of the way electronic compo ­
nents are interconnected with each other, such
malfunct ions can also have an adverse effect on
other systems that are not directly involved. This
means that you risk both a substantial reduction
in the operational safety of your veh icle and an
i n creased wea r of ve hicle parts
c> ,&. .
Author ized Audi dealers w ill perform this work in
a profess io nal and competent manner or, in spe ­
cial cases, refer you to a p rofessional company
that spec ializes in such modificat ions.
.&_ WARNING
Improper repa irs and modificat ions can
c hange the way veh icle systems work and
c ause damage to the veh icle and ser ious per ­
sonal injury.
(UJ) Note
I f emergency rep air s mus t be pe rformed else ­
where, have the vehicle ex am ined by an a u­
thorized A udi dealer as soon as possib le .
