• When working on high voltage system, the work should be performed by technicians who have completed the relevant training. A lack of understanding of the high voltage system can lead to serious accidents due to electric shock or electric leakage.

• When working on high voltage system or related components, make sure that you are familiar and comply with the "Safety Precautions, Cautions and Warnings." If you do not comply with the instructions, serious accidents due to electric shock or leakage may occur.

• When working on high voltage system, make sure to check the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and high voltage shut-off procedures.

1.Install in reverse order of removal.

Kia EV6. Refrigerant Line   

Be sure to inject the specified refrigerant (R-1234yf) and refrigeration oil (POE) by using the refrigerant recovery/charging equipment dedicated to the electric compressor. Compressor damage and safety accidents may occur if refrigeration oil (PAG) of general vehicles is mixed.
