For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace burned out bulbs for you.
It is becoming increas ingly more and more
d iff icu lt 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
bu lb. Th is applies especially to the light bu lbs
in the front of your car which you can on ly
reach through the engine compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb ho lders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious c uts, and parts
must be correctly taken apart and then prop
erly put back together to help prevent break
age of parts and long term damage from wa
ter that can enter hous ings 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.
G as discharg e la mps (X enon light s):
Due to the high electrical voltage, have the
bulbs rep laced by a qualified technician .
Headlights with Xenon light can be identified
by the high voltage sticker.
LED headlights * require no maintenance .
P lease contact your authorized Audi dealer if a
bu lb needs to be replaced.
A WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of
the electrical system and improper re
placement of gas discharge (Xenon) head-
Fu ses and bulb s 273
light bulbs can cause serious personal in
jury and death.
- Xenon bulbs are pressurized and can ex
plode when being changed.
- Changing Xenon lamps requires the spe
cial tra ining, instructions and equip
ment.
- On ly an authorized A udi dealer or other
qualified workshop should change the bulbs in gas discharge lamps.
A WARNING
There are parts with sharp edges on the
openings and on the bulb holders that can
cause ser ious cuts.
- If you are uncertain about what to do,
have the work performed by an author
ized Audi dealer or othe r qualified work
shop. Ser ious personal in jury may result
from imprope rly performed wo rk.
Q) Tips
- If you must replace the light bulbs your
self, always remember that the eng ine
compartment of any vehicle is a hazard
ous area to work in. A lways read and
heed all WARN INGS
