WARNING
Working on vehicles with high-voltage wiring:
• Do not support yourself or tools on high-voltage wiring or
associated components --> this can damage the insula‐
tion.
• High-voltage wiring must not be excessively bent or
kinked --> this can damage the insulation.
• The round high-voltage connectors are colour-coded with
an external coloured ring and are provided with mechan‐
ical coding or guide lugs. It is important to observe this
coding when joining up the round high-voltage connec‐
tors, otherwise the connectors can be damaged.
– De-energise high-voltage system.
The high-voltage system must be de-energised according to the
“Guided Fault Finding” routine in the ⇒ Vehicle diagnostic tester,
and ONLY by this method.
DANGER!
High voltage can cause fatal injury
Danger of severe or fatal injuries from electric shock
♦ The high-voltage system may only be de-energised by a
suitably qualified person (Audi high-voltage technician).
♦ It must be definitely confirmed that the high-voltage sys‐
tem is de-energised. The system may only be de-ener‐
gised using the vehicle diagnostic tester via “Guided Fault
Finding”.
♦ The qualified person (Audi high-voltage technician) con‐
firms that the system is de-energised and uses the locking
cap - T40262- to ensure that the system cannot be re-
energised. The ignition key and the maintenance connec‐
tor for high-voltage system - TW - are then stored in a safe
place by the qualified person.
♦ The qualified person (Audi high-voltage technician) marks
the vehicle by attaching the appropriate warning signs.
