WARNING Read and follow the information below when de-energizing the high voltage system to reduce the risk of fatal injury. ♦ Only a qualified technician (high voltage technician) should disable the high voltage system. ♦ The high voltage technician (HVT) makes sure the system is de-energized and cannot be re-energized again. ♦ The high voltage technician assures that the system can‐ not be re-energized again by safely storing the key, the High Voltage System Maintenance Connector - TW- and the pilot line connector. ♦ The high voltage technician (HVT) puts a sign on the ve‐ hicle saying the voltage is disabled. ♦ Only hybrid electrically instructed persons may perform all work (maintenance, tire changing, Convenience System) on vehicles with a high voltage system. If there is any un‐ certainty, discuss with the responsible high voltage tech‐ nician. ♦ A high voltage technician must disable the system before any work can be performed on the high voltage electrical system or any other service work to the body. ♦ Only a high voltage expert (HVE) may perform repairs to the vehicle if it is not possible to disable the high voltage electrical system. ♦ Individuals with electrical medical equipment must not work on vehicles with a high voltage electrical system. Ex‐ amples of electrical medical equipment include pain med‐ ication pumps, implanted heart defibrillators, pacemakers, insulin pumps and hearing aids. WARNING Working with high voltage cables: ♦ Do not support yourself or lay tools on the high voltage cables or on any of its components. ♦ When working near high voltage components and high voltage cables, do not use tools that generate heat, that have sharp edges or that are used for cutting or shaping, such as welding, soldering, hot air or thermal adhesive equipment. ♦ When working near high voltage components and high voltage cables, do not use tools that generate heat such as welding, soldering, hot air or thermal adhesive equip‐ ment. ♦ Do not excessively bend or flex high voltage cables. questions or if something is not clearly understood. Check the contact surfaces on the potential equalization cables before installation. grease on them. GTI 2014 ➤ Generic Scan Tool - Edition 04.2015 1. General Information 5 |
