High-voltage Battery Charging Recommendations. INFORMATION Only properly trained personnel, who have passed all applicable technical training courses, should perform any maintenance or repairs on any Hybrid or Electric Vehicle. Work performed by unqualified persons may result in severe injury or damage to the vehicle. Additional information may be found in REP 61 00... Observe safety instructions when handling electric vehicles. There are several options for charging the high-voltage battery in the I01. The charging requirements vary depending on how the vehicle is being used. Refer to the following scenarios for the appropriate charging recommendations. In addition, certain precautions must be followed during charging to prevent damage to certain high-voltage components. Diagnosis: * During diagnostic work on the vehicle, a charging cable must be connected via the vehicle's charge port. A level 1 (Occasional Use Cable), level 2 (Wallbox), or DC charger may be used. Repair work: * During non-electrical or low-voltage repair work which is not associated with the drivetrain or any highvoltage components: * The vehicle must be turned off (KL0) and plugged in using an HV charging cable, i.e., Level 1 Occasional Use Cable. * During work on, or near high-voltage components or any drivetrain components: * o The high-voltage system must be shut down by properly trained personnel via Repair Instruction REP 61 25 900. If the vehicle needs to be turned on during the repair process, the vehicle should be connected to a workshop power supply at the 12V service posts on the Electric Machine Electronics (EME). Programming: * During programming with ISTA/P, the high-voltage system must be shut down by properly trained personnel. * A workshop power supply, e.g., DUETRONIC 1600, must be connected to the 12V service posts on the EME. External power supply (low-voltage - 12V): * An external power supply such as a workshop or showroom power supply may be used, but certain precautions mu
