Accessories and technical changes
@) Tips
Because of your vehicle's aluminum body de-
sign, all service and repair procedures affect-
ing the body should be performed by an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Serv-
ice Facility, who will perform the work accord-
ing to Audi factory specifications. Only Audi
Genuine Parts are used when Audi experts
perform repair or service procedures. Failure
to use Audi Genuine Parts or Audi Genuine Ac-
cessories or performing repairs incorrectly
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. Audi recom-
mends having your vehicle serviced by an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty and using Audi Genuine Parts and Audi Genu-
ine Accessories.
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
or government 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.
— On vehicles that have factory-installed li-
cense plate brackets on the front of the ve-
hicle, the brackets may only be replaced
with ones that are the same size and made
of the same material. Do not install any li-
cense plate brackets on the front of vehicles
that do not have factory-installed brackets.
Otherwise, the function of the system could
be impaired.

@) 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.
Reporting Safety Defects
Applicable to U.S.A.
If you believe that your vehicle
has a defect which could cause a
crash or could cause injury or
death, you should immediately in-
form the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA) in
addition to notifying
Audi of America, Inc.
2200 Ferdinand Porsche Drive
Herndon, VA 20171
If NHTSA receives similar com-
plaints, it may open an investiga-
tion, and if it finds that a safety
defect exists in a group of
vehicles, it may order a recall and
remedy campaign. However,
NHTSA cannot become involved in
individual problems between you,
your dealer, or Audi of America,
Inc.
