Accessories and technical changes

Service Facility, who will perform the work ac-
cording to Audi factory specifications. Only
Audi Genuine Parts are used when Audi ex-
perts perform repair or service procedures.
Failure to use Audi Genuine Parts or Audi Gen-
uine Accessories or performing repairs incor-
rectly may result in severe vehicle damage,
such as corrosion.
Accessories and parts
Consult with an authorized Audi dealer or author-
ized Audi Service Facility before purchasing ac-
cessories or replacement parts. We recommend
that you have your vehicle serviced by an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty and that Audi Genuine Parts and Audi Genuine
Accessories are used.
Audi does not endorse the use of products and
accessories that it has not evaluated, even if the
product is approved by a certified testing agency

ZA WARNING
— Installing unapproved accessories or incor-
rect replacement parts can cause vehicle
damage and can increase the risk of an acci-
dent.
— Never attach accessories, such as telephone
holders or cup holders, to the airbag covers
or within the airbag deployment zone, be-
cause this increases the risk of injury if the
airbag deploys.
— Do not use a license plate bracket different
from the one installed by the factory in the
front of the vehicle, because it may impair
the function of some systems.

@) Note
A correctly-installed exterior antenna is re-
quired for operating radio equipment in the
vehicle. Otherwise, the increased electromag-
netic waves can cause malfunctions in the ve-
hicle. Observe the regulations in the country
where the vehicle is being operated and the
instructions from the radio equipment manu-
facturer.
