Radio, Stereo, and Compact Disc: Service Precautions



Safety Precautions

If test and measuring equipment is required during road test, the following must be observed:

WARNING:
- To avoid risk of injury while performing measurements and tests during road test, the following must be observed:

Audi TT coupe:
- Only VAS 5051 or VAG 1551 must be used to read measuring value blocks. The tester must always be secured to the rear seat and must be operated from there by a second technician.
- Due to limited space, the passenger seat must be adjusted as far forward as possible and the seatback adjusted to the forward-most engaged position using the hand wheel. Unlocking lever of backrest must not be used to do so.

Audi TT Roadster:
- For the Audi TT Roadster, only VAG 1552 must be used with passenger-side airbag switched off at key switch.
- Deactivate passenger-side airbag via key switch in glove compartment
- Passenger-side airbag must be re-activated after completing work.


To prevent injuries to persons and/or damage to electronic and electrical components, note the following points:
- Always switch off the ignition before connecting or disconnecting test instruments.
- During some of the tests the control module may identify and record malfunctions as DTCs. The DTC memory should therefore be checked and (if necessary) erased after completing the tests and any repair work that may be required.
- Always switch off the ignition before connecting or disconnecting the battery; otherwise the transmission control module may be damaged.
