Securing the vehicle
3. Remove the battery cover.
NOTE: The 24V-batteries are stacked on top of each other within the
chassis, which makes access to the terminals difficult.
4. Disconnect the battery clamp from the negative terminal.
5. Disconnect the battery clamp from the positive terminal.
6. Hold the positive and negative cables together to discharge any power that may be
stored in the capacitors.
7. Secure the cables; make sure that they cannot come into contact with the terminals.
3.4 HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERIES
1 Battery string (also called high-voltage or
traction battery)
2 Electric motor
3 Charge plug
The CF electric is equipped with two battery strings also referred to as high-voltage
batteries. One fitted on each side of the chassis behind the side skirts. Each battery
string contains two, in series connected, high-voltage batteries. Each of the battery
string is equipped with a so called MSD (Manual Service Disconnect) disconnecting the
high-voltage circuit between two high-voltage batteries. The MSD is a safety protection
device (Fuse) for the high-voltage circuit. This plug must be removed during the safety
lock-out procedure.
