Procedure: Visual Inspection
When performing a visual inspection inside the engine compart‐
ment, be sure to inspect the electric drive power and control
electronics, the high-voltage cables for the battery and the A/C
compressor, the high-voltage cables for the electric drive, the
high-voltage charging socket in the radiator grill and in the tank
cover.
Pay attention to the high-voltage battery and the high-voltage ca‐
bles for the battery when performing a visual inspection in the
underbody area.
When performing the visual inspection, pay attention to the fol‐
lowing:
♦ The high-voltage components must not show any damage on
the outside.
♦ The insulation on the high-voltage cables must be intact with‐
out any damage.
♦ Look for any unusual deformations on the high-voltage cables.
Note
Inform the high-voltage technician if something seems wrong or
missing.
4.33 Hybrid Components, Visually Inspecting
for Damage of the High-Voltage Com‐
ponents and Wires
WARNING
Hybrid vehicles have a high-voltage system with very high-
voltage. Danger of electrical shock! Check for high-voltage
components in the area where work will be performed before
starting. Pay attention to the safety precautions. Refer to ⇒
Electric Drive; Rep. Gr. 00 ; Safety Precautions .
WARNING
♦ All work on vehicles with a high-voltage system may be
performed only by technicians “certified on electrical sys‐
tems”.
♦ Contact to the responsible high-voltage technician is
something needs clarification.
Procedure: Visual Inspection
When performing a visual inspection inside the engine compart‐
ment, be sure to inspect the electric drive power and control
electronics, the high-voltage cables for the battery and the A/C
compressor, the high-voltage cable for the hybrid module and the
high-voltage charging socket in the radiator grill.
Pay attention to the hybrid battery and the high-voltage cables for
the battery when performing a visual inspection in the underbody
area.
When performing the visual inspection, pay attention to the fol‐
lowing:
