2.￿Important￿Notes
Proceed￿in￿the￿reverse￿order￿when￿reattaching￿the￿high-voltage￿cable.￿The￿following￿graphic￿shows
the￿complex￿design￿of￿the￿high-voltage￿connector￿on￿the￿high-voltage￿components￿and￿explains￿why
one￿must￿proceed￿with￿care￿when￿removing￿and￿inserting￿high-voltage￿cables.
High-voltage￿connector￿on￿the￿high-voltage￿component
Removing￿the￿connector￿of￿the￿high-voltage
cable
The￿connector￿of￿the￿high-voltage￿cable￿must
now￿be￿removed￿in￿the￿direction￿of￿the￿arrow.
After￿the￿connector￿has￿been￿pulled￿out￿a
few￿millimeters￿(A),￿one￿encounters￿a￿higher
counterforce.￿The￿connector￿must￿then￿be
pulled￿out￿further￿in￿the￿same￿direction (B).
Under￿no￿circumstances￿must￿the￿connector
be￿pressed￿back￿into￿the￿socket￿on￿the￿high-
voltage￿component￿after￿reaching￿position￿(A).
This￿may￿damage￿the￿connector￿on￿the￿high-
voltage￿components.
The￿high-voltage￿connector￿of￿the￿high-voltage
cables￿must￿be￿pulled￿out￿at￿a￿right￿angle￿in￿two
steps￿and￿in￿the￿same￿direction.￿Changing￿the
direction￿of￿movement￿during￿removal￿is￿not
permitted.
