24 Instr uments and warning/indicator lights
¢¢Turn signals
The indicator light blinks when you use either
turn signal .
Whenever you use the left II or the rig ht a
turn signal, the indicator light blinks. When
you use the emergency flashers, both indica
tor lights flash.
If one of the turn signal light bulbs burn out,
the turn signal will blink twice as fast as nor
mal. Carefully drive to your authorized Audi
dealer immediately to have the malfunction
corrected. The indicator light does not indi
cate a malfunction if a turn signal on the trail
er or on the vehicle fails in trailer towing
mode.
