PINPOINT TEST HC: Fuel Delivery System: Notes
WARNING:
This vehicle is equipped with high voltage cables, components, and wiring. The high voltage warning labels containing the high voltage symbol are located on each high voltage component. High voltage cables and wiring are orange in color. Certified rubber insulating gloves and a face shield must be worn when working with the high voltage cables, components, or wiring. The ignition key must be cycled to the OFF position for a minimum of 5 minutes, and the high voltage traction battery service disconnect plug placed in the servicing/shipping position before disconnecting the high voltage cables. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or death.
Do not disconnect, disable, or touch the high voltage cables, components, or wiring during the module reprogramming procedure because high voltage is present. The high voltage warning labels containing the high voltage symbol are located on each high voltage component. High voltage cables and wiring are orange in color. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or death.

WARNING:
The fuel system remains under pressure after the engine is off. Relieve pressure before repairing. Highly flammable mixtures are present. To release pressure from the fuel system, carry out the following:
Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
- Connect a Rotunda fuel pressure gauge 134-R0087 or equivalent.
- Gradually open the testing kit valve to relieve the fuel pressure in the vehicle fuel system and drain the fuel into a suitable container or return it to the fuel tank.
- To avoid unnecessary fuel spillage and fire hazard, any time fuel lines are disconnected, the ignition switch must be in the OFF position unless fuel pump operation is required for test purposes.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING:
Before working on or disconnecting any of the fuel tubes or fuel system components, relieve the fuel system pressure to prevent accidental spraying of fuel. Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure, even when the engine is not running. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or have an open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not carry personal electronic devices such as cell phones, pagers or audio equipment of any type when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
When handling fuel, always observe fuel handling precautions and be prepared in the event of fuel spillage. Spilled fuel may be ignited by hot vehicle components or other ignition sources. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Clean all fuel residue from the engine compartment. If not removed, fuel residue may ignite when the engine is returned to operation. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
