Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

  • E-chain harness is severely damaged/tangled: Stop movement to prevent wire shorting.
  • If the XY system exhibits movement failure, contact a qualified technician immediately, as this involves complex mechanical and electrical components like the E-chain harness.
