The various electrical circuits are protected by fuses . The fuses are
clustered in a central ized unit. The unit is located behind the face
panel at the end of the instrument panel.
Two spare fuses and a sticker identifying the fuses are located on
the inside of the fuse box cover.
You are wel l advised to keep a supply of spare fuses in your vehicle .
Fuses with the proper ampere ratings are availab le at your autho­
rized Audi dealer .
& WARNING
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating .
• A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical
part and cause a fire.
0 Note
• On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin
foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the elec­
trical circuit or cause fire.
• If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have
the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and
fixed. •
