RE:
Electrical Insulated Gloves
TIN NO.
TIN-22-00-001
AFFECTED VEHICLES: 2012 - 2017 i-MiEV, 2018 & newer Outlander PHEV
PURPOSE
Certified EV dealers MUST have a set of electrically insulated gloves, MB992648-01. While
servicing an i-MiEV or Outlander PHEV, these gloves are essential in protecting a Technician
from a potentially fatal electric shock. We would like to reiterate the importance of properly
maintaining these gloves and adhering to the following guidelines:
• Inspect the gloves for holes and cracks before every use. Do not use the gloves if a
defect is found.
• Always use the leather protector and gloves together. Never use either piece separately
as they do not provide adequate protection from electric shock.
• Do not expose the gloves to petroleum products. Hand soaps and detergents may
contain petroleum products that will damage your gloves.
For additional information, please review the attached instruction sheet originally provided with
the gloves.
IMPORTANT!
United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration Regulations (OSHA) section 1910.137
et seq. also require that these gloves be inspected after twelve months from the original
inspection date printed on the glove. Additional inspections are required every six months of use
thereafter. The gloves must be inspected and certified by an accredited laboratory. For
information on how and where to get your gloves certified, please visit http://www.nail4pet.org.
If the gloves fail the inspection or you would rather purchase new gloves, they can be ordered
from Bosch Automotive Service Solutions (formerly SPX) at 1-888-727-6672. If sourced locally,
ensure you purchase gloves with an OSHA rating of Class 0 (1000V).
