Example: battery isolator switch
You can interrupt the voltage supply using the
battery isolator switches. This prevents short cir‐
cuits, which could create sparks that might in
turn cause a fire or an explosion. Vehicles for
hazardous material transport are equipped with
one or two battery isolator switches depending
on the ADR classification regarding the interrup‐
tion of the voltage supply.
Only use the battery disconnect switches when
the vehicle is stationary, e.g. when loading the
vehicle in a hazardous goods area.
#
Observe the notes in the event window in the
on-board computer.
#
Switch the ignition off.
On vehicles with a retarder, wait approximately
five seconds after switching the ignition off
before interrupting the voltage supply using the
battery disconnect switch.
If the auxiliary heating is switched on, wait for the
auxiliary heating run-on phase to end.
In a hazardous situation, the power supply can be
interrupted immediately with the battery discon‐
nect switch.
It takes up to ten seconds from the disconnecting
procedure until the voltage supply is interrupted.
If the voltage supply is interrupted by the battery
isolator switch when the anti-theft alarm system
is primed, the anti-theft alarm is triggered.
