Electric FORD KUGA 2011 1.G User Guide

Standard Workshop Practices
Vehicle in Workshop
When working on a vehicle in the workshop always
make sure that:
– the parking brake is applied or the wheels aresecurely chocked to prevent the vehicle moving
forwards or backwards.
– the key is removed from key operated hood locks before any work is carried out around the
front of the vehicle.
– if the engine is to be run, there is adequate ventilation, or an extraction hose to remove
exhaust fumes.
– there is adequate room to raise the vehicle and remove the wheels, if necessary.
– fender covers are always fitted if any work is to be carried out in the engine compartment.
– the battery is disconnected if working on the engine, underneath the vehicle, or if the vehicle
is raised.
CAUTION: When electric arc welding on a
vehicle, always disconnect the generator
wiring to prevent the possibility of a surge
of current causing damage to the internal
components of the generator.
– if using welding equipment on the vehicle, a suitable fire extinguisher is readily available.
Towing the Vehicle
WARNING: When the vehicle is being
towed, the ignition switch must be in
position II (steering lock released and
warning lamps illuminated). Only then will
the steering, turn signal lamps, horn and
stop lamps be operational. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
NOTE: The removable towing eye (if equipped),
has a left-hand thread and must be fully tightened
before towing can commence.
When towing is necessary, the vehicle towing eyes
should be used. The rope must be securely
fastened to the towing eyes and must also be
attached to the other vehicle such that the rope will
not foul the bodywork.
When a vehicle with automatic transmission is
towed, the gear selector must be in position N (Neutral). Never tow a vehicle with automatic
transmission at a speed greater than 30 mph (50
km/h) or for a distance greater than 30 miles (50
km). If it is necessary to tow the vehicle a greater
distance, the drive wheels must be lifted clear off
the ground.
Alternatively the vehicle can be transported on a
low loader or a trailer.
Connecting a Slave Battery Using
Jumper Cables
WARNING: If the slave battery has recently
been charged and is gassing, cover the
vent plugs or covers with a damp cloth to
reduce the risk of explosion should arcing
occur when connecting the jumper cables.
Failure to follow these instructions may
result in personal injury.
CAUTIONS:
A discharged battery condition may have
been caused by an electrical short circuit.
If this condition exists there will be an
apparently live circuit on the vehicle even
when all normal circuits are switched off.
This can cause arcing when the jumper
cables are connected.
While it is not recommended that the
vehicle is jump started, it is recognized
that this may occasionally be the only
practical way to mobilize a vehicle. In such
an instance, the discharged battery must
be recharged immediately after jump
starting to avoid permanent damage.
– Always make sure that the jumper cables are adequate for the task. Heavy duty cables must
be used.
– Always make sure that the slave battery is of the same voltage as the vehicle battery. The
batteries must be connected in parallel.
– Always make sure that switched electric circuits are switched off before connecting jumper
cables. This reduces the risk of arcing occurring
when the final connection is made.

WARNING: Make sure that the ends of the
jumper cables do not touch each other or
ground against the vehicle body at any
time while the cables are attached to the
battery. A fully charged battery, if shorted
through jumper cables, can discharge at
a rate well above 1000 amps causing
violent arcing and very rapid heating of the
jumper cables and terminals, and can even
cause the battery to explode. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in
personal injury.
Always connect the jumper cables in the following
sequence:
– Slave battery positive first and then vehicle battery positive.
– Slave battery negative next and then vehicle ground at least 12 inches (300 mm) from the
battery terminal, for example engine lifting eye.
Always reduce the engine speed to idle before
disconnecting the jumper cables.
Before removing the jumper cables from the vehicle
that had the discharged battery, switch on the
heater blower (high) or the heated rear window, to
reduce the voltage peak when the cables are
removed.
Always disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse
order to the connecting sequence and do not short
the ends of the cables.
Do not rely on the generator to restore a
discharged battery. For a generator to recharge a
battery, it would take in excess of eight hours
continuous driving with no additional loads placed
on the battery.
Component Cleaning
To prevent the ingress of dirt, accumulations of
loose dirt and greasy deposits should be removed before disconnecting or dismantling components
or assemblies.
Components should be thoroughly cleaned before
inspection prior to reassembly.
Cleaning Methods:
– Dry cleaning.
– Removal of loose dirt with soft or cable brushes.
– Scraping dirt off with a piece of metal or wood.
– Wiping off with a rag.
WARNING: Wear eye protection when
cleaning vehicle components with
compressed air, a steam cleaner or a
power washer. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.
CAUTIONS:
Compressed air is sometimes 'wet' so use
with caution, especially on hydraulic
systems.
To prevent damage to the electrical
connectors in the engine compartment, do
not use a steam cleaner or a power washer
to clean the engine compartment.
– Blowing dirt off with compressed air.
– Removal of dry dust using vacuum equipment. This method must always be used to remove
friction lining material dust (asbestos particles).
– Steam cleaning.
WARNING: Most solvents require careful
handling and some are harmful. Refer to
Health and Safety Precautions and to the
manufacturers literature for the relevant
safety precautions. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
Various solvents are available which are suitable
for component cleaning. Some components, such
as brake hydraulic parts and electrical assemblies
should be cleaned only with recommended solvents
— refer to Solvents, Sealers and Adhesives or to
the section of the manual relevant to the
component.
Calibration of Essential Measuring
Equipment
WARNING: Equipment, which requires
regular calibration, must be calibrated in
accordance with the manufacturers

Body Repair Health and Safety and General Precautions
General
Appropriate repair methods and carrying out repair
and paint jobs correctly is particularly important to
the operating safety of vehicles and the safety of
people.
WARNING: There is danger of injury
through:
• High voltage when electrical welding. – Do not perform welding work in a dampenvironment or on a wet substrate. Use
suitable insulation underneath.
• Welding spatter and UV radiation. – Wear protective clothing, gloves and weldingmask or welding goggles.
• Fire, explosion and hot surfaces in the work area.
– Always have a suitable fire extinguisheravailable when using welding or heating
equipment.
– Remove flammable substances from the danger area. Remove the fuel tank and fuel
pipes and hoses.
– Welding and grinding near the battery presents the danger of explosion. Remove
the battery before you start working.
– During paint work there is an increased danger of fire or explosion. Prevent any
sparks being created. Fire, open light and
smoking are forbidden.
– Always ventilate the workplace well and use an extraction system.
– Wear protective footwear made from anti-static material.
– Only use tools made of wood, brass or copper to clean stands and extraction ducts.
Do not use tools made of steel.
– Only fill or decant paint materials in a specially marked area. • Inhalation and/or absorption through the skin of
harmful substances.
– Welding fumes grinding dusts and solventvapours can be extremely harmful to the
health.
– Sealants, underbody protection and paint residues must not be burnt down with an
unshielded flame, as this will produce harmful
substances.
– Always ventilate the workplace well and use an extraction system.
– Wear protective clothing.
• Pyrotechnic components. – Disconnect the battery negative clamp andcover the battery terminal.
– Remove any airbag components.
• Noise – Cutting, grinding and alignment work cancause a noise level over 85 dB (A).
– Always wear ear protection.
• High Forces. – The various body areas are subject to veryhigh forces during realignment work. Should
any component suddenly become detached
during this process, there is a very great
danger of injury.
– Pulling chains and pulling shackles must be secured with arrester cables.
As well as these general instructions on the
dangers in body and paint shops, you must
observe:
• All valid local national and international regulations governing Health and Safety at Work

Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
Inspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanicalor electrical damage.
3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible)
before proceeding to the next step.
4. If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom and REFER to the Symptom Chart.
How to Use this Diagnostic Procedure
Section
• Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) concernshave become more important as vehicles have
become more sensitive to these vibrations. This
section is designed to aid in identifying these
concerns.
• The section provides diagnostic procedures based on symptom. If the condition occurs at
high speed, for instance, the most likely place
to start is under Shake and Vibration While
Driving.
• The road test procedure will tell how to sort the conditions into categories and how to tell a
vibration from a shake.
• A series of Road Test Quick Checks are provided to make sure that a cause is either
pinpointed or eliminated.
• Name the condition, proceed to the appropriate section and locate the correct diagnosis. When
the condition is identified, the job is partly done.
• Follow the diagnostic procedure as outlined.
• Quick Checks are described within the step, while more involved tests and adjustments are
outlined in General Procedures.
• Always follow each step exactly and make notes to recall important findings later.
Customer Interview
The road test and customer interview (if available)
provide information that will help identify the
concern and will provide direction to the correct
starting point for diagnosis.
Identify the Condition
NVH usually occur in four areas:
• tires
• engine accessories
• suspension
• driveline
It is important, therefore, that an NVH concern be
isolated into its specific area(s) as soon as
possible. The easiest and quickest way to do this
is to carry out the Road Test as outlined. To assist
in the diagnosis and testing procedure(s), use a
suitable approved NVH diagnosis tester.
Noise Diagnostic Procedure
Non-Axle Noise
The five most common sources of non-axle noise
are exhaust, tires, roof racks, trim panels and
transmission.
Therefore, make sure that none of the following
conditions are the cause of the noise before
proceeding with a driveline teardown and
diagnosis.
• In certain conditions, the pitch of the exhaustmay sound very much like gear noise. At other
times, it can be mistaken for a wheel bearing
rumble.
• Tires, especially snow tires, can have a high pitched tread whine or roar, similar to gear
noise. Radial tires may have this characteristic.
Also, any non-standard tire with an unusual
tread construction may emit a roar or whine
noise.
• Trim panels can also cause whistling or whining noise.
• Clunk may be a metallic noise heard when the automatic transaxle is engaged in "R"
(REVERSE) or "D" (DRIVE) or it may occur
when the throttle is applied or released. It is
caused by backlash somewhere in the driveline.
• Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. This condition is usually caused by a
damaged wheel bearing.
