Cool Cold Engine (Like off for 12 hours) Radiator Fan Comes On Full Blast with engine Off.

My Audi A6 Quatro 2012 3.0 Supercharge Engine (USA Model). Radiator Fan Runs at Full Speed - when car shut off.... Realized this can be normal in Hot Weather so didn't worry, however when I went out this morning - and Opened the Door - after it was off for 14 hours - same thing - just fires up - even before engine on.... So let it cycle - about 1 min or so - and it shuts down - then still with engine not started - I pop the hood - which the car apparently senses - and again - it triggers the radiator fan - full on... which I thought was supposed to have a safety mechanism to stop that from happening - anyway . There are no Check engine lights or other warning lights and the car operates fine. Only 30K miles on it - all services done on time with dealer - current engine oil only on 4500 Miles. Anyway - it is under warranty - just wondering have you ever heard of something like this? And What it may be - didn't see this addressed anywhere
