WARNING:
Potential equalization in high-voltage system
.
Mortal hazard if the potential equalization screw connection is not correct!
Mortal hazard if the potential equalization screw connection is not correct!
- Observe the safety requirements for potential equalization screw connection.
- Clean contact faces and have then checked by a second person.
- Tighten the screws/nuts for equipotential bonding with torque; have a second person check the torque.
- Correct execution of this work must be documented by both persons in the vehicle records.
