Checking and Filling

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.

ZA WARNING
California Proposition 65 Warning:
— Engine exhaust, some of its constituents,
and certain vehicle components contain or
emit chemicals known to the State of Cali-
fornia to cause cancer and birth defects and
reproductive harm. In addition, certain flu-
ids contained in vehicles and certain prod-
ucts of component wear contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
— Battery posts, terminals and related acces-
sories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harms.
Wash hands after handling.


ZA\ WARNING
The voltage in the high-voltage system is life-


threatening. Touching a damaged high-volt-

() Note
When filling fluids, be sure not to add any flu-
ids to the wrong reservoirs. Otherwise, severe
malfunctions and damage will occur.
@) For the sake of the environment
You should regularly check the ground under
your vehicle in order to detect leaks quickly. If
there are visible spots from oil or other fluids,
bring your vehicle to an authorized Audi deal-
er or authorized Audi Service Facility to be
checked.

Message
EB warning! Hood is not locked. Stop vehicle
and check the lock
The hood latch is not locked correctly. Stop im-
mediately and close the hood.

ZA WARNING
— 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.
— For safety reasons, the hood must always be
closed securely while driving. Because of
this, always check the hood after closing it
to make sure it is latched correctly. The hood
is latched if the front corners cannot be lift-
ed.
— If you notice that the hood is not latched
while you are driving, stop immediately and
close it, because driving when the hood is
not latched increases the risk of an accident.

@) Note
— Before winter weather begins, have an au-

Service Facility check if the coolant additive
in your vehicle matches the percentage ap-
propriate for the climate. This is especially
important when driving in colder climates.
— If the appropriate coolant additive is not
available in an emergency, do not add any
other additive. Using other additives in-
creases the risk of damage. If this happens,
only use water and restore the correct mix-
ture ratio with the specified coolant additive
as soon as possible.
— Only refill with new coolant.
— Radiator sealant must not be mixed with
the coolant.

Immediately drive your vehicle to an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility
and have the cooling system inspected.
