General information
– The KTM Freeride E-SX is a high-voltage electric motorcycle with a lithi-
um-ion battery (KTM PowerPack, 260 V).
– The high-voltage components in the vehicle are identified by yellow warning
labels.
– The high-voltage cables in the motor housing and in the KTM PowerPack can
be identified by the orange color of their insulation.
– Before beginning work on the vehicle, switch off the main switch
on the
right side of the handlebar .
Version 1: Lightly damaged vehicle
(Orange high-voltage cable is not visible, no visible damage to
KTM PowerPack)

Version 2: Severely damaged vehicle
(Orange high-voltage cable is visible and/or metallic penetration of
the KTM PowerPack)
The intrinsic safety of the high-voltage system of the vehicle cannot be
determined from the outside.
Using suitable high-voltage protective equipment, the vehicle must be
de-energized by removing the KTM PowerPack (high-voltage battery).
1. Switch off the main switch
.
2. Unlock the seat
and fold it up.
3. Disconnect the 12-V battery
.
4. Loosen the hex screws size 10
.
5. Remove the KTM PowerPack (high-voltage battery, 260 V)
and store in a
safe place until it can be submitted to a specialist workshop.
Version 3: Vehicle fire
– In the event of a vehicle fire, the usual regulations for low-voltage systems
apply.
– If the KTM PowerPack was affected by the fire, the extinguishing and cool-
ing process may take up to 24 hours. The surroundings must be protected
accordingly.
– To cool a burning KTM PowerPack, use large quantities of water.
– When using branch pipes and water as an extinguishing agent, maintain a
safety distance of
1 m for spraying
and
5 m for a full jet of water
