Engine Control System: Precaution
CAUTION:
A repair operation incorrectly performed on the hybrid vehicle (HV) could cause an electrical shock, leakage or explosion. Be sure to perform repair operations correctly.
- REMOVE KEY FROM IGNITION SWITCH
- ENSURE THAT CHARGE CONNECTOR IS DISCONNECTED
- WEAR INSULATING GLOVES ALWAYS
- DISCONNECT NEGATIVE (-) TERMINAL CABLE FROM AUXILIARY BATTERY
- REMOVE SERVICE PLUG AND DO NOT START ANY REPAIR OPERATION BEFORE 5 MINUTES HAVE PASSED CAUTION:
- Due to the discharge resistance, it takes at least 5 minutes before the 273.6 V electricity is sufficiently discharged from the condenser in the inverter circuit.
- Even after the 5 minutes have passed, the following precaution should be observed. Before touching a 273.6 V cable or any other cable which you cannot identify, use the tester to confirm that the voltage through the cable is 12 V or less.
- After removing the service plug, cover the plug connector using rubber or vinyl tape.
- AFTER REMOVING 273.6 V CABLE, BE SURE TO COVER TERMINAL USING VINYL TAPE
- USE INSULATED TOOLS
- DO NOT LEAVE TOOLS OR PARTS (BOLTS, NUTS, ETC.) INSIDE CABIN
- DO NOT WEAR METALLIC OBJECTS SUCH AS MECHANICAL PENCILS OR SCALES
CAUTION:
A metallic object may drop and cause a short-circuit.
