Air conditioning systems with refrigeranR1234yf - General information - Edition 07.2017  
When the air conditioner service station is switched off, take  
measures to prevenifrom rolling away.  
Only keep or use the air conditioner service station with R1234yf  
refrigeranin cool, well-ventilated areas  
Protecagainsheaand direcsunlight, do nokeep or use in  
areas with temperatures higher than 50°C.  
Do nokeep or use in or near cellars or other low lying areas.  
Only keep or use in areas with a sufficienflow of air (complete  
air exchange aleasonce per hour in workshop area and  
lk  
three times per hour in low lying areas, e.g. inspection pits).  
1.5  
Safety measures for working on vehicles with high-voltage system  
Danger to life from high voltage  
The high-voltage system is under high voltage. Severe or fatal  
injury from electric shock.  
– Persons with life-preserving or other electronic medical devi‐  
ces in or on their body musnoperform any work on the high-  
voltage system. Such medical devices include internal anal‐  
gesic pumps, implanted defibrillators, pacemakers, insulin  
pumps and hearing aids.  
– The high-voltage system musbe de-energised by a suitably  
qualified technician.  
Risk of injury due to unexpected motor star 
On electric and hybrid vehicles, ican easily be missed thathe  
vehicle is in „ready“ mode. There is a risk of parts of the body  
becoming trapped or drawn in.  
– Switch off ignition.  
– Always store the ignition key outside the vehicle.  
Risk of damage to high-voltage cables  
Improper handling of high-voltage cables or high-voltage connec‐  
tors can resulin damage to their insulation.  
– Never supporbody weighon high-voltage cables or high-  
voltage connectors.  
– Never supporany tools on high-voltage cables or high-volt‐  
age connectors.  
– Never kink or severely bend high-voltage cables.  
– Always observe the coding when connecting high-voltage con‐  
nectors.  
Risk of injury from activate stationary air conditioning  
On electric and hybrid vehicles with active stationary air condi‐  
tioning, the stationary air conditioning could switch on uninten‐  
tionally. Risk of limbs becoming trapped or drawn in by the  
radiator fan starting automatically.

– Deactivate the stationary air conditioning.  
1.6  
Safety precautions when working in the vicinity of high-voltage components  
Danger to life from high voltage  
lk  
The high-voltage system is under high voltage. Damage to high-  
voltage components can resulin severe or fatal injury from  
electric shock.  
– Perform visual check of high-voltage components and high-  
voltage cables.  
– Never use cutting or forming tools, or any other sharp-edged  
tools.  
– Never use heasources such as welding, brazing, soldering,  
hoair or thermal bonding equipment.  
1.7  
Safety measures when working on pressurised tanks/containers  
Risk of fatal injury and explosion from sources of ignition  
Risk of fatal injury and explosion from sources of ignition in the  
vicinity of air conditioning systems and refrigerantanks. Escap‐  
ing refrigerancould ignite and cause an explosion. Risk of ex‐  
plosion leading to loss of life or serious injuries.  
– Never bring sources of ignition close to air conditioning sys‐  
tems and refrigerantanks.  
– Avoid electrostatic discharge, sparks from tools striking sur‐  
faces and hosurfaces.
