WARNING:
If the vehicle or parts are disposed of (scrapped) while the capacitor (i-ELOOP) is charged with electricity, it could cause the following accidents. Before disposing of the vehicle or parts, always discharge the capacitor (i-ELOOP) to prevent the following accidents from occurring:
Ignition generated by a shorted current may ignite flammable objects
The wiring harness temperature increases by the shorted current while it is disconnected and cause severe burns and serious injury if the wiring harness is touched
Touching the wiring harness while your body is wet with the wiring harness disconnected may result in electrical shock
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.5].)
2. Disconnect the service plug. (See SERVICE PLUG DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [i-ELOOP].)
3. Remove the discharge box cover.
4. Connect the connector in the discharge box to the plug.
5. Verify that the LED which displays during discharging is displayed.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the discharge box because the inside of the box becomes hot during discharging.
NOTE:
The LED turns off when the discharge is completed. Completion of discharge takes a maximum of approx. 2 hours.
6. Verify that the LED turns off.CAUTION:
Do not return the service plug to the original position even after discharging is finished.
7. Dispose of the vehicle or the parts.
