3. Emergency Response Steps • Failure to properly shut down the high voltage electrical system before the Emergency Response Procedures are performed will result in serious injury or death from electrical shock. To prevent serious injury or death, NEVER touch high voltage harnesses or components without always wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). PPE must always be worn when touching or working on high voltage components. If it is necessary to touch any of the high voltage harnesses or components you must always wear appropriate PPE to avoid electrical shock. PPE must always be worn when touching or working on high voltage components. Shut down the high voltage system by following the steps outlined in 3-3.1 High Voltage System Shut-Down Procedure (FRG-20). Wait approximately ten (10) minutes for complete discharge of the high voltage capacitor after the high voltage system has been shut down. • • NEVER assume the Pathfinder HYBRID is shut OFF simply because it is quiet. • If the READY indicator is ON the high voltage system is active. • If possible, be sure to check the READY indicator on the instrument cluster and verify that the READY indicator is OFF and the high voltage system is stopped.
