Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Safety precautions when working on vehicles with high-voltage system
Risk of death due to high voltage |
The high voltage system carries high voltage. Electrical shocks will
cause serious injuries or death. |
– |
People having electronic medical devices for life support or health
maintenance in or on their bodies are prohibited from working on the
high-voltage system. Life-support and health-maintaining devices
include, for example, internal analgesia pumps, implanted
defibrillators, pacemakers, insulin pumps and hearing aids. |
– |
Have a qualified technician de-energise the high-voltage system. |
Danger of injury due to motor starting unexpectedly |
It is difficult to determine whether electric or hybrid vehicles
have been activated for driving. It is possible that body parts may be
pinched or drawn into moving parts. |
– |
Deposit the ignition key outside the passenger compartment. |
Risk of damage to high-voltage cables |
Improper handling can damage the insulation of high-voltage cables
or connectors. |
– |
Never support yourself on high-voltage cables or connectors. |
– |
Never support tools on high-voltage cables or connectors. |
– |
Never bend high-voltage cables tightly or kink them. |
– |
When joining high-voltage connectors, observe coding. |

Continuation of checking pressures
Where vehicles have a restrictor and reservoir, check these
(with internally regulated air conditioning system compressor)

Restrictor
The restrictor creates a restriction. This restriction
limits the flow, separating the high-pressure and low-pressure
sides in the refrigerant circuit. Upstream of the restrictor,
the refrigerant is warm due to the high pressure. Downstream of
the restri ...
