To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage of electric and electronic components, always observe the following:
CAUTION:
- Always switch ignition off before connecting or disconnecting test/measurement tools.
- It is possible that the control module will recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during some tests. After completing all tests and repairs, DTC memory should therefore be checked and erased if necessary.
- Always switch ignition off before disconnecting or connecting battery. Failure to do so may damage a control module.
- On vehicles equipped with Audi Telematics by OnStar(R), switch-off the emergency (back-up) battery for the Telematic/Telephone Control Module prior to disconnecting battery. See EMERGENCY (BACK-UP) BATTERY, SWITCH ON/OFF, RESET TIME REGISTER .
