2.2.�Safe�working�practices�for�working�on�a�high-voltage�system
Before�working�on�high-voltage�components�of�the�I01,�it�is�essential�to�observe�and�implement�the
electrical�safety�rules:
1
The�high-voltage�system�must�be�disconnected�from�the�supply
2
The�high-voltage�system�must�be�provided�with�a�safeguard�to�prevent�unintentional�restarting
3
The�safe�isolation�of�the�high-voltage�system�must�be�verified
The�following�chapters�provide�brief�descriptions�on�how�to�implement�the�electrical�safety�rules�in�the
I01.
2.2.1.�Preparations
Prior�to�beginning�any�work,�the�vehicle�must�be�secured�against�rolling�away�(engage�the�parking�lock
of�the�transmission�and�activate�the�parking�brake).�Terminal�15�and�terminal�R�must�be�switched�off.
Disconnect�any�connected�charging�cables.�The�vehicle�should�be�in�"rest�state".
2.2.2.�Disconnect�the�high-voltage�system�from�the�supply
The�high-voltage�system�in�the�I01�is�disconnected�from�the�supply�with�the�high-voltage�safety
connector.�To�disconnect�from�the�supply,�the�connector�must�be�pulled�from�the�relevant�socket.�This
interrupts�the�circuit�of�the�high-voltage�interlock�loop.
This�image�shows�the�high-voltage�safety
connector�in�a�connected�state.�The�circuit
of�the�high-voltage�interlock�loop�is�not
interrupted.
The�message�"ON"�at�the�high-voltage�safety
connector�indicates�an�active�high-voltage
system.
