Product Usage Instructions
Electric Vehicle Identification:
Identify the vehicle using the characteristics: look for the high-voltage
charge port and the Mach-E badge.
High-Voltage System De-Energizing:
Always assume the vehicle’s high-voltage system is powered up. BEFORE ACCESSING THE VEHICLE MAKE SURE THAT ANY EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED (e.g. electric charger, electric tools). Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury or death.
HIGH-VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL DISCONNECT FEATURES
WARNINGS:
Removing the service disconnect will disconnect the high-voltage from the vehicle. The high-voltage battery pack will remain live and dangerous. Do not cut the high-voltage battery case. Do not penetrate the high-voltage batteries or case in anyway. If possible, isolate and avoid contact with high-voltage vehicle components.
To prevent the risk of high-voltage shock, always follow all warnings and
service instructions precisely including instructions to depower the system.
The high-voltage system utilises voltage in excess of 450 V DC. This voltage
is provided through high-voltage cables to components and modules. The high-
voltage cables and wiring are identified by orange harness tape or orange wire
covering. All high-voltage components are marked with high-voltage warning
labels with a high-voltage symbol. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in serious personal injury or death.
Ignition is in the OFF Position – Any time the ignition is in the OFF position
(and the vehicle is not being charged), the high-voltage system is
deactivated.
Service Disconnect – Whenever the service disconnect is removed, the high-
voltage
system is disabled.
Method 1:
- Make sure the vehicle transmission gear selector is in the PARK position.
- Check that the vehicle READY light is off. This indicates that the high-voltage system is disconnected.
- If the vehicle READY light is on, press the engine start/stop button to turn off the ignition.
HIGH-VOLTAGE SYSTEM DE-ENERGIZING – METHOD 2
The high voltage battery system uses a low voltage disconnect plug that opens
the 12-volt contactor control supply circuit and is located in the engine
compartment. When the service disconnect plug is disconnected the high voltage
contactors that supply high voltage to the vehicle are unable to close.
Note: This method involves accessing the engine compartment.
- Open the hood of the vehicle.
- Remove the driver side beauty cover.
- Release the Connector Position Assurance (CPA) clip.
- Depress the release tab and slide out until the OFF label is visible.
- Insert a suitable tool in the lockout to prevent reinsertion.
Important: The high-voltage system may retain a dangerous level of voltage for a short time after it is depowered. Wait for 5 minutes for the voltage to dissipate before beginning any service to avoid personal injury or death.
