      *1 Coolant (for inverter) Passage

      Tilt the inverter with converter assembly back and forth to drain the coolant (for inverter).

      Note

      Do not hold the inverter with converter assembly by the coolant pipes or inverter signal connector.

      Tech Tips

      The coolant (for inverter) passage is designed as shown in the illustration. Tilt the inverter with converter assembly back and forth repeatedly to drain the coolant (for inverter) completely.

    3. A01V1TP

      Blow compressed air into the inverter with converter assembly until most all of the coolant (for inverter) is blown out.

      Note

      Do not damage the coolant pipes.

      Tech Tips


      • Use a piece of cloth as shown in the illustration to prevent the coolant (for inverter) from spraying.

      • Cover the air inlet port with a piece of cloth to minimize air leakage.

  3. CLEAN INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY

    CAUTION:

    Wear insulating gloves.


    1. Using a piece of cloth, clean the outside of the inverter with converter assembly and around the bolts.
