2. Fully open the driver's window.
3. Remove the HEPA filter housing
Warning: If the 12V power supply is disconnected, do not attempt to open the front doors with door glass in closed position. Failure to follow this instruction could result in door glass shatter.
Note: Before disconnecting the 12V power supply, ensure that the driver’s door window is fully open. Failure to follow this instruction could result in vehicle lockout.
4. Disconnect the 12V battery ground connection (torque 10 Nm).
5. Disconnect the first responder loop.
6. Wait at least 2 minutes for all electrical circuits to fully discharge.
Warning: Before working on any high voltage components, perform the Vehicle Electrical Isolation Procedure
Removal:
1. Disconnect 12V power (refer to procedure).
2. Release the red plastic cover from the 12V positive connection.
3. Disconnect the 12V battery positive connection (torque 10 Nm).
4. Release the edge clip and the barrel clip that secure the 12V harnesses from the top of the battery cage.
5. Release the edge clip that secures the coolant hose to the bottom of the battery cage.
6. Release the battery vent tube by gently pulling it way from the 12V battery.
