Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized 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
IJ>

316 Fuses and bulbs
must be co rrectly taken apart and then prop ­
erly put back together to help prevent break­
age of parts and long term damage from wa­
te r that can enter housings that have not been
properly resealed.
F or your safety, we recommend that you have
your author ized Audi deale r 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 vo ltage, have the
bu lbs rep laced by a qualified technician.
Headlights with Xenon light can be identified
by the high voltage sticker.
A WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of
the electrical system and improper re­ placement of gas discharge (Xenon) head­
light bulbs can cause serious personal in­
jury and death .
- Xenon bulbs are pressurized and can ex­
plode when be ing changed .
-Chang ing Xenon lamps requires the spe­
cial train ing, instructions and equip­
ment .
- Only an authorized Audi dealer or other
qualified workshop should change the
bulbs in gas d ischarge lamps.
A 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 author­
ized Audi dea le r or other qualified work­
shop. Serious personal injury may result
from improperly performed work .
(j) Tips
-If you must replace the light bu lbs your­
se lf, always remembe r that the engine
compartment of any vehicle is a hazard­
ous area to work in . Always read and
heed all WARNINGS

- It is best to ask your authorized Audi
dealer whenever you need to change a
bulb .
