HYBRID SYSTEM - MAINTENANCE
When cleaning the air in-
take vents/filters make sure
to remove vent/filter before
cleaning. If a compressed air
blow gun, etc. is used to blow
out dust and clogs, the dust or
clogs may be pushed into the
air intake vents/filters, which
may affect the performance of
the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) and cause a malfunction.
When Cleaning the Air
Intake Vents / Filters
To Prevent Damage to the
Vehicle
Do not allow water or for-
eign matter to enter the air
intake ducts when the vent/
filters are removed.
Carefully handle the re-
moved vent/filter so that it
will not be damaged. If the
vent/filter is damaged, have
it replaced with a new filter
by your BraunAbility dealer.
Make sure to reinstall the
vent/filters and push pins to
their original positions after
cleaning.
Do not install anything to
the air intake vents other
than the exclusive filters
for this vehicle or use the
vehicle without the filters
installed.
When Cleaning the Air
Intake Vents / Filters
Do not use water or other
liquids to clean the air intake
vents/filters without remov-
ing and drying. If water is
applied to the hybrid battery
(traction battery) or other
components, a malfunction
or fire may occur.
Before cleaning the air in-
take vents/filters, make sure
to turn the power switch off
to stop the hybrid system.
