Safety Precautions

2.1.3 Safety Precautions for High Voltage/Line Voltage

Very high voltages occur in electrical systems. Due to voltage flashover on damaged components, such as marten damage or touching live components, the risk of electric shock is likely. High voltage via the vehicle and line voltage via the building's mains supply can cause severe injury or even death if adequate care is not taken. Therefore regard the following:

• Only use power supply cables with grounding contact.

• Only use a checked or the attached power cord.

• Always use the original cable set.

• Regularly check cables and adapters for damage.

• Always connect the ground cable from device to vehicle first.

• Perform any assembly work such as the connection of the device to the vehicle or the replacement of components only when ignition is switched off.

• Do not touch live components when ignition is switched on.

2.1.4 Safety Precautions – Risk of Injury

When working on the vehicle, there is a risk of injury through rotating parts or rolling of the vehicle. Therefore regard the following:

• Prevent the vehicle from rolling.

• Additionally place gear selector lever of AT vehicles to park position.

• Deactivate the start/stop system to avoid an inadvertent engine startup.

• Connect the device to the vehicle only when engine is shut down.

• Do not reach into rotating components when engine is running.

• Do not run cables near rotating parts.

• Check the high-voltage parts for damage.

2.1.5 Safety Precautions – Chemical Burns

If the TFT display is damaged, there is a danger of chemical burns due to the escape of liquid crystal. Therefore regard the following:

• Immediately rinse affected parts of the body or clothing with water (consult a doctor).

• Seek medical attention immediately after inhaling or swallowing.

2.1.6 Safety Precautions Regarding the Risk of Pinching/Crushing

2.1.7 Safety Precautions for Hybrid/Electric Vehicles

Very high tensions occur on hybrid and electric vehicles. Due to voltage flashover on damaged components, such as marten damage or touching live components, the risk of electric shock is likely. High voltage at or in the vehicle can lead to death in case of inattention. Therefore regard the following:

• Only the following qualified employees are allowed to de-energize the high-voltage system:

– High-voltage technician

– Skilled electrician for predetermined operations – Hybrid or rather electric vehicles

– Skilled electrician

• Place warning signs and warning tapes.

• Check the high-voltage system and the high-voltage lines for damage (visual inspection!).

• De-energizing the high-voltage system:

– Switch off ignition.

– Disconnect the service disconnect plug.

– Remove the fuse.

• Securing the high-voltage system against re-activation:

– Withdraw the ignition key and keep it safe.

– Keep the service disconnect plug safe or secure the battery master switch against re-

activation.

– Insulate the battery master switch, the plug connections etc. with dummy plugs, covering

caps or insulating tape with the corresponding warning notice.

• Check the de-energized state with a voltage tester. Even with disconnected high-voltage system, residual voltage can still be present.

• Ground and short-circuit the high-voltage system (necessary only if voltage is higher than 1000 V).

• Voltage below 1000 V: Cover the parts which are close to the system or which are energized e. g. with insulating cloth, hoses or plastic coverings. Voltage higher than 1000 V: Cover the parts with insulating plates/protective panels specially developed for this purpose so that sufficient protection against contact to adjacent parts is ensured.

• Regard the following before re-energizing the high-voltage system:

– All tools and utilities are removed from the hybrid/electric vehicle.

– Remove the grounding and short circuit of the high-voltage system. Do not touch any of

the cables now.

7.4.3 Parameters

Many of the on-board systems supply digital measured values in the form of parameters for fast diagnostics. Parameters indicate the present state or nominal and actual values of the components. The device displays the parameters alphanumerically and graphically.

Example 1

The engine temperature can be within a range of -30 °C to 120 °C.

If the temperature sensor reports 9 °C but the engine actually has a temperature of 80 °C, the ECU calculates an incorrect injection time.

A trouble code is not stored, as this temperature is logical for the ECU.

Example 2

Fault text: Oxygen sensor signal faulty

In both cases, diagnostics can be significantly eased if the corresponding parameters are read out.

The mega macs 56 Bike reads the parameters and displays them in plain text. It additionally provides information on the parameters.
