Dc-Dc Converter - Tesla 2012 Model S Emergency Response Manual

DC-DC CONVERTER

The DC-DC converter is located in the front right wheel well, on the passenger side of the firewall. It transforms the high voltage current from the 400 volt
battery to low voltage to charge the Model S 12 volt battery. High voltage is present at the DC-DC converter. Use caution when cutting in this area during
a dash lift (dash roll) procedure —use work-around techniques, if necessary.
WARNING: Regardless of the disabling procedure you use, ALWAYS ASSUME THAT ALL HIGH VOLTAGE COMPONENTS ARE ENERGIZED! Cutting, crushing or touching high voltage
components can result in serious injury or death.
