Take advice from a qualified workshop before purchasing accessories and replacement parts. We recommend that you have all work performed by an Audi workshop using Audi Genuine Parts and that you use Audi Genuine Accessories.
We cannot judge the reliability and suitability of non-genuine products or assume responsibility for them, even if they have been approved by an officially recognised technical testing authority or by the relevant authorities.
Any retrofitted equipment which has a direct effect on the vehicle and/or the way it is driven must be approved for use in your vehicle and bear the e mark (the European Union s approval symbol). A cruise control system is an example of this type of equipment.
If any additional electrical equipment is connected, but does not serve to control the vehicle itself, it must bear the
mark (manufacturer conformity declaration in the European Union). Examples of such equipment include refrigerator boxes, computers or ventilator fans.
WARNING
- The use of non-approved accessories or the wrong replacement parts can cause damage to the vehicle - risk of accident!
- Never secure accessories (such as telephone brackets or cup holders) on airbag cover panels or in the areas around the airbags; this could cause injury if the airbag is triggered.
- Do not use number plate holders on the front bumper which vary from the holder fitted at the factory, and do not fit any additional holders.
CAUTION
An external aerial installed properly is required in order to operate radio transmitters inside the vehicle. If this is not the case, the increased electromagnetic radiation can cause malfunctions in the vehicle. Please observe the relevant local regulations and follow the instructions from the radio equipment manufacturer.
