Checking and Filling
Motor compartment
General information
Special care is required if you are working in the
motor compartment
For work in the motor compartment, such as
checking and filling fluids, there is a risk of in-
jury, scalding, accidents, and burns. For this
reason, follow all the warnings and general
safety precautions provided in the following in-
formation. The motor compartment is a danger-
ous area in the vehicle. > A.

age component can result in a fatal electric
shock. The components in the high-voltage
system are marked with a warning label which
warns of the high-voltage.
— The voltage level in the high-voltage system
is still dangerous and potentially life-threat-
ening when the ignition is switched off.
— Never perform work on orange high-voltage
cables or on high-voltage components. Only
authorized repair facilities that are certified
may perform work on the high-voltage sys-
tem.


ZA WARNING
— Switch the ignition off.
— Set the parking brake.
— Select the “P” (Park) selector lever position.
— Keep children away from the motor com-
partment.
— Never spill operating fluids in the motor
compartment.
— Avoid short circuits in the electrical system.
— Never open the hood when there is steam or
coolant escaping from the motor compart-
ment, because there is a risk that you could
be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
— Never open the cap on the coolant reservoir
if the coolant is hot. The cooling system is
under pressure.
— To protect your face, hands, and arms from
hot steam or coolant, cover the cap with a
thick cloth when opening.
— All work on the battery or electrical system
in your vehicle can result in injuries, chemi-
cal burns, accidents, or burns. Because of
this, all work must be performed only by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility.
— Limit your exposure to chemicals to as short
a time as possible.
