AUDI Safety Procedures & PPE 2

Question 1

When working under a lifted Audi, which additional safety measure should ALWAYS be used alongside a hydraulic floor jack?

Accepted Answer

Place jack stands under the vehicle's designated lift points

Question 2

Which type of gloves is most appropriate when handling hot exhaust components on an Audi?

Heat-resistant leather or Kevlar gloves protect against burns from exhaust manifolds, catalytic converters, and other high-temperature components.

Question 3

What is the correct procedure before disconnecting the high-voltage battery on an Audi e-tron or Q4 e-tron?

Accepted Answer

Answer

High-voltage systems on EVs require Class 0 (1,000V rated) or higher insulated gloves and strict OEM de-energization steps to prevent electrocution.

Question 4

Why must safety glasses be worn when using a wire brush attachment on an angle grinder in an Audi workshop?
