wheel NISSAN LEAF 2013 1.G Dismantling Guide

3. Preparation for Dismantling
• Failure to properly shut down the high voltage electrical system before the
Dismantling Procedures are performed will result in serious injury or death from
electrical shock. To prevent serious injury or death, DO NOT touch high voltage
harnesses or components without always wearing appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) .
• If it is necessary to touch any of the high voltage harnesses or components you
must
always wear appropriate PPE to avoid electrical shock. Shut down the high
voltage system by following the steps outlined in 3-3 High Voltage System Shut-Down
Procedures. Wait at least ten (10) minutes for complete discharge of the high voltage
capacitor

after the high voltage system has been shut down. • NEVER assume the LEAF is shut OFF simply because it is quiet.
• If it becomes necessary for the dismantler to leave the vehicle, place a “DANGER” sign
(for
example, refer to 4-3 Storing the Vehicle) on the vehicle to alert other people that the
vehicle

contains a high voltage battery.
• If the READY indicator or charging indicator are ON, the high voltage system is
active.
• If possible, be sure to verify that the READY indicator on the instrument cluster
is

OFF and the high voltage system is stopped.
3-1 Discharging Procedures Do not perform this procedure if the battery is damaged. If you are unsure of battery
damage,

use extreme caution and wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) .
Li-ion battery discharging must take place before dismantling. Sufficient discharging can be achieved by
following these steps. 1. Place the selector lever into the Park (P) position
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Set wheel chocks to ensure the vehicle is completely immobilized.
