Safety instructions for electrical systems
DANGER
High voltage!
Danger to life!
Under no circumstances should you touch the HV wires and connections without ensuring that
there is no voltage beforehand!
The battery may only be connected by a qualified electrician!
Under no circumstances should you bypass or avoid security installations! Any malfunctions
resulting from this could have life threatening consequences!
Before starting work with the battery, the shut-down of the coupled motor must be ensured! Even
when the HV supply is switched off, a turning motor can still produce voltage!
