Overhaul

Overhaul
During overhaul, immobilize and disable the vehicle if not already done. The HV battery cover should never be breached or removed under any circumstances including fire. Doing so may result in severe electrical burns, shock, or electrocution.





Immobilize Vehicle:
Chock wheels and set the parking brake.
Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position.

Disable Vehicle:
Performing either of the following two procedures will shut the vehicle off and disable the HV battery pack, SRS, and gasoline fuel pump.





Procedure #1
1. Confirm the status of the READY indicator in the instrument cluster.

2. If the READY indicator is illuminated, the vehicle is on and operational. Shut off the vehicle by pushing the power button once.

3. The vehicle is already shut off if the instrument cluster lights and the READY indicator are not illuminated. Do not push the power button because the vehicle may start.

4. If the smart key is easily accessible, keep it at least 16 feet (5 meters) away from the vehicle.

5. If the smart key cannot be found, disconnect the 12 Volt auxiliary battery in the engine compartment to prevent accidental restarting of the vehicle.





Procedure #2 (Alternate if power button is inaccessible)
1. Remove the fuse box cover.

2. Remove the IGCT fuse (30A green colored) in the engine compartment fuse box (refer to illustration). If the correct fuse cannot be recognized, pull all fuses in the fuse box.

3. Disconnect the 12 Volt auxiliary battery in the engine compartment.
