Warning 48 V: Danger of hazardous arc! Switch off Ignition before disconnecting the 48 V battery! Q8 + SQ8 Legend Status: 08/2020, AUDI AG • Audi Q8 / SQ8 from 2018 12 V lead acid battery remove foot mat open floor flap separate minus pole of the 12 V battery 1. 2. 3. 48 V Lithium-ion battery (in 48 V mildhybrid) ! The 48 V on-board power supply is automatically deactivated during accidents in which the airbag(s) deployed. For all other cases, in order to deactivate the on-board power supply the 48 V Lithium-ion battery has to be separately disconnected in addition to the 12 V lead acid battery. Therefore: ! WARNING! Hazard due to electric arc at 48 V ! Turn off ignition before separating the 48 V battery! For minimization the risc of electric arc it is recommended to disconnect the batteries as follows: 1. 2. 3. remove the cargo floor from the trunk emove the spare tire and vehicle toolkit remove the over from the 48 V Lithium-Ion battery by removing the four bolts with a screwdriver pull out the communication connector plug 5. remove the pole cap and separate the minus pole of the 48 V Lithium-ion battery.
