Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have your autho­
rized Audi dealer replace burned out bulbs for you.
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 compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb holders can have sharp edges that can cause
serious cuts, and parts must be correctly taken apart and then prop­
erly put back together to help prevent breakage of parts and long
term damage from water that can enter housings that have not been properly resealed.
For your safety , we recommend that you have your authorized Audi
dealer replace any bulbs for you, since your dealer has the proper
tools, the correct bulbs and the expertise.
Gas discharge lamps (Xenon lights)*:
•
Due to the high electrical voltage, have the bulbs replaced by a qual­
ified technician. Headlights with Xenon light can be identified by the
high voltage sticker .
& WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of the electrical system
and improper replacement of gas discharge (Xenon) headlight
bulbs can cause serious personal injury and death .
• Xenon bulbs are pressurized and can explode when being
changed.
• Changing Xenon lamps requires the special training, instruc ­
tions and equipment .
• Only an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop
should change the bulbs in gas discharge lamps.
& WARNING
There are parts with sharp edges on the openings and on the bulb holders that can cause serious cuts .
• If you are uncertain about what to do, have the work performed
by an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop. Serious
personal injury may result from improperly performed work.
[ i] Tips
• If you must replace the light bulbs yourself, always remember
that the engine compartment of any vehicle is a hazardous area to
work in. Always read and heed all WARNINGS=>
page 209, "Engine
compartment"=>
/A .
• It is best to ask your authorized Audi dealer whenever you need
to change a bulb .•

& WARNING (continued)
• Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always
read and heed all WARNINGS=>
page 209, "Engine compartment".
0 Note
• Applying a highe r voltage booste r battery will cause expensive
damage to sens itiv e electron ic components, such as control units,
relays , radio, etc.
• There must be no electrical contact between the vehicles as
otherwise current could already start to flow as soon as the positive
( + ) terminals are connected .
[ i ] Tips
The d ischarged battery must b e properly connected to the vehicle's
electrical system. •

Emergency towing with commercial
tow truck
General hints
Your Audi requires special handling for towing.
The following information is to be used by commercial tow truck
operators who know how to operate their equipment safely.
• Never tow your Audi, towing will cause damage to the engine
and transmission.
• Never wrap the safety chains or winch cables around the brake
lines.
• To prevent unnecessary damage , your Audi must be transported
with a car carrier (flatbed truck).
• To load the vehicle on to the flat bed, use the towing loop found
in the vehicle tools and attach to the front or rear anchorage
~ page 282 and~ page 283.
& WARNING
A vehicle being towed is not safe for passengers. Never allow
anyone to ride in a vehicle being towed, for any reason. •
Front towing loop
Do not install the front towing loop until it is needed.
Fig. 174 Front
bumper: removing the
grill
Fig . 175 Front

- Remove the screwdriver and towing loop from the
vehicle toolkit =>
page 264.
-Insert the screwdriver into the slot as shown and press
toward the center of the vehicle=> fig. 174. At the same

& WARNING (continued)
• The engine compartment of any motor vehicle is a potentially
hazardous area. Never reach into the area around or touch the
radiator fan. It is temperature controlled and can switch on
suddenly -even when the engine is off and the ignition key has
been removed. The radiator fan switches on automatically when
the coolant reaches a certain temperature and will continue to run
until the coolant temperature drops .
• Always remove the ignition key before anyone gets under the
vehicle.
• Always support your vehicle with safety stands if it is neces­
sary to work underneath the vehicle. The jack supplied with the
vehicle is not adequate for this purpose and could collapse
causing serious personal injury.
• If you must work underneath the vehicle with the wheels on
the ground, always make sure the vehicle is on level ground, that
the wheels are always securely blocked and that the engine
cannot be started .
• Always make sure the transmission selector lever (automatic
transmission) is in "P" (Park position) (automatic transmission) or
Neutral (manual transmission) and the hand brake is firmly
applied.
<£> For the sake of the environment
• Changing the engine settings will adversely affect emission
levels. This is detrimental to the environment and increases fuel
consumption .
• Always observe environmental regulations when disposing of
old engine oil, used brake fluid, dirty engine coolant, spent batteries
or worn out tires.
• Undeployed airbag modules and pretensioners might be classi ­
fied as Perchlorate Material -special handling may apply, see
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate . When the vehicle or
parts of the restraint system including airbag modules safety belts
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation with pretensioners are scrapped, all applicable laws and regula­
tions must be observed. Your authorized Audi dealer is familiar with
these requirements and we recommend that you have your dealer
perform this service for you. •
