Cut all power to the vehicle

WARNING!
Wear eye protection and rubber gloves classified for 1,000 V when carrying
out work with a risk of coming into contact with voltage class B (650 V).
WARNING!
Avoid cutting the cable harness for voltage class B (650 V) while the
voltage is on. The system may be energised even if:
• the break switches for 24 V or voltage class B are switched off
• the contactors in the propulsion batteries have been welded in the closed
position.
There is a high risk of an electrical arc that may cause personal injury. Wear
eye protection and rubber gloves classified for 1,000 V.
1. Switch off the 24 V system by disconnecting the battery terminals on the 24
V batteries. The 24 V batteries are located on the right-hand side behind the
front wheel.
This normally results in the propulsion battery being disconnected. This
action prevents voltage from the electric machine.
To be sure that there is no residual voltage remaining in the system's
charged capacitor, wait 15 minutes.
2. If the cable harness for voltage class B needs to be cut or becomes
damaged, and if the 24 V system is not accessible, disconnect the
connectors on the propulsion battery. This guarantees that the electric drive
system is disconnected.
