MAINTENANCE  COOLANT(for Inverter)  REPLACEMENT  


CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the reserve tank cap or drain cock plug while the coolant (for inverter) is still hot. Pressurized, hot coolant (for inverter) and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

PROCEDURE

Hide 1.DRAIN COOLANT (for Inverter)

CAUTION:

To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the reserve tank cap while the coolant (for inverter) is still hot. Pressurized, hot coolant (for inverter) and steam may be released and cause serious burns.


NOTICE:
·

Do not reuse the drained coolant because it may contain foreign matter.

·

Collect the drained coolant and measure its volume to establish a benchmark. When adding coolant, make sure to add more coolant than the measured amount.



a.

Remove the reserve tank cap from the inverter reserve tank assembly.


b.
A548709

Remove the 2 bolts and 2 clips.


c.

Pull down the No. 1 engine under cover assembly.

NOTICE:

Do not damage the No. 1 engine under cover.



d.
A430015

Connect a hose with an inside diameter of 9 mm (0.354 in.) to the drain cock as shown in the illustration.


e.

Loosen the drain cock plug indicated in the illustration and drain the coolant.

CAUTION:

To avoid the danger of being burned, do not loosen the drain cock plug while the coolant (for inverter) is still hot. Pressurized, hot coolant (for inverter) and steam may be released and cause serious burns.



f.

Tighten the drain cock plug by hand.


g.

Disconnect the hose from the radiator drain cock.


h.

Install the No. 1 engine under cover assembly to the vehicle with the 2 clips.


i.

Install the 2 bolts.

Torque:
7.5 N*m (76 kgf*cm, 66 in.*lbf)


Hide 2.ADD COOLANT (for Inverter)

NOTICE:
·

Do not reuse the drained coolant because it may contain foreign matter.

·

If the vehicle is driven with air in the inverter cooling system, damage may occur and the following DTCs may be stored.

DTC No. Detection Item

a.
A443726

Slowly pour coolant into the inverter reserve tank assembly until it reaches the F line.

Standard Capacity:

1.6 liters (1.7 US qts, 1.4 Imp. qts)


NOTICE:

To prevent foreign matter such as dust or dirt from entering the cooling system, make sure to confirm that the container used to add coolant is clean and free of foreign matter.



b.

When using the GTS:

i.

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.


ii.

Turn the power switch on (IG).


iii.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Active Test / Activate the Inverter Water Pump.

Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Active Test
Tester Display
Activate the Inverter Water Pump
50004 397 1

iv.

While adding coolant to the inverter reserve tank assembly to keep the coolant at the F line and compensate for the drop in the coolant level as the air bleeds, operate and stop the inverter water pump assembly at 1 minute intervals.

Standard:

Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the inverter reserve tank assembly improves.


HINT:

Loud noises made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the inverter reserve tank assembly indicate that there is air in the cooling system.




c.

When not using the GTS:

i.

Turn the power switch on (READY). [*1]


ii.

Turn the power switch off and add coolant to the F line as the coolant level will drop as the air bleeds. [*2]

NOTICE:
·

Be sure to turn the power switch off before adding SLLC.

·

Do not work on the components in the engine compartment while the power switch is on (READY) as the engine will operate intermittently.




iii.

Repeat steps [*1] and [*2] until air bleeding from the cooling system is completed.

Standard:

Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the inverter reserve tank assembly improves.


HINT:

Loud noises made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the inverter reserve tank assembly indicate that there is air in the cooling system.




d.
A443726

After the air is completely bled from the cooling system, add coolant to the F line of inverter reserve tank assembly and install the reserve tank cap.
