Removal [06/2015 - 11/2018]: Procedure

  1. PRECAUTION 
    NOTE:
    • After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

      Refer to PRECAUTION [06/2015 - ]

    • Place signs [HIGH PRESSURE GAS WORK IN PROGRESS - DO NOT TOUCH!], etc. to warn other technicians to be cautious. (An example sign is included, so make a copy and use it.)

    • When performing depressurization, do not open or close any parts of the hydrogen gas piping except for the following:

      - Adjustment bolt of the hydrogen tank assembly manual valve

      - Tank shut valve of the hydrogen tank assembly

      - No. 1 hydrogen supply regulator plug

    • When installing or removing hydrogen system components (hydrogen tank assembly, high pressure hydrogen piping, hydrogen inlet receptacle, hydrogen tube joint, hydrogen tank pressure sensor or hydrogen supply regulator assembly), to prevent strain such as twisting from being applied to the high pressure hydrogen piping, use the hydrogen tank installation and removal guide tool and remove the hydrogen tank unit from the vehicle before performing procedures.
    • Even when replacing only the No. 1 hydrogen tank assembly, or only the No. 2 hydrogen tank assembly, to prevent strain from being applied to the high pressure hydrogen piping, use the tank positioning attachment of the hydrogen tank installation and removal tool, and perform positioning of the No. 1 hydrogen tank assembly and No. 2 hydrogen tank assembly.
    • Even when not removing or installing the high pressure hydrogen piping, be careful not to pull or otherwise apply strain to the high pressure hydrogen piping.
    • Do not reuse high pressure hydrogen piping after it has been removed, because the coupling portions will not maintain their airtightness.
    • When reusable parts such as the hydrogen tank assembly valve portion, hydrogen inlet receptacle, hydrogen tube joint and hydrogen supply regulator assembly have been removed, to protect the seal portions and threaded portions from damage as well as to prevent foreign matter such as dust and metal fragments from entering through openings, cover these areas with protective tape.
    • Do not use packing tape, or any other tape that will leave residue on parts, as protective tape.
    • Protect seal portions and threaded portions as shown in the illustration.

      *a Protective Tape
      *b Seal Portion
      *c Threaded Portion
    • To protect the seal portions and threaded portions from damage or contamination by foreign matter, remove the protective tape immediately before installation.
    • When reassembling components that have been removed, make sure that there is no foreign matter adhering to the openings.
    • After installing hydrogen system components, first perform primary leak inspection with low pressure nitrogen gas, and then fill pressurized hydrogen gas at a hydrogen station to perform secondary leak inspection. When performing secondary leak inspection, the vehicle cannot be driven to the hydrogen station under its own power, so transport it using a car carrier, etc.
    • Do not insert any sharp objects into the exhaust tube of the hydrogen supply regulator assembly release valve.

      *a Exhaust Tube
      *b Atmosphere Ventilation Hole Cap
    • Do not remove the atmosphere ventilation hole cap of the hydrogen supply regulator assembly.
    • When the vehicle is parked with the power switch off, if the FC control ECU judges that the FC stack temperature will go below 0°C (32°F), it activates the FC air compressor, hydrogen pump and FC cooling water pump for a maximum of 180 seconds and drains water from the FC stack assembly. When performing inspection or repairs with the power switch off (not on (IG) or on (READY)), disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal before performing work.
