brake INFINITI Q70 HYBRID 2016 First Responder´s

3-1.2 Daily Inspection
This
inspection is performed before and after use. The responder who will be using the items should
perform the inspection and check for deterioration and damage. • Insulated rubber gloves should be inspected for scratches, holes and tears. (Visual check and airleakage test)
• Insulated safety boots should be inspected for holes, damage, nails, metal pieces, wear or other problems on the soles. (Visual check)
• Insulated rubber sheet should be inspected for tears. (Visual check)
3-1.3 Insulated Tools
When performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
3-2 Vehicle Immobilization and Stabilization
Apply the parking brake and stabilize the vehicle with a wheel chock(s) or deflate the tires. Put support
material such as wooden blocks or utilize the Lift Airbag Equipment for rescue. To avoid electrical shock, do not put the Lift Airbag Equipment for rescue and wheel
chock(s)
under the high voltage components and harnesses. AAYIA0016ZZ

3-3.5 High Voltage Battery Damage And Fluid Leaks
The high voltage battery contains electrolyte solution. To avoid exposure to electrolyte
solution
and serious personal injury, always wear appropriate solvent resistant Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) and read the following precautions:
• Electrolyte solution is a skin irritant.
• Electrolyte solution is an eye irritant – If contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of water and
see a doctor immediately.
• If electrolyte leak occurs, wear appropriate solvent resistant PPE and use a dry cloth to clean up the spilled electrolyte. Be sure to adequately ventilate the area.
• Electrolyte solution is highly flammable.
• Electrolyte liquid or fumes that have come into contact with water vapors in the air will create an oxidized substance. This substance may irritate skin and eyes. In these cases,
rinse with plenty of water and see a doctor immediately.
• Electrolyte fumes (when inhaled) can cause respiratory irritation and acute intoxication. Move to fresh air and wash mouth with water. See a doctor immediately.
If electrolyte solution leakage, or damage such as any problem with the high voltage battery casing are
observed, first responders should attempt to neutralize the battery by applying a large volume of water to the
battery pack while wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) . The neutralization process
helps stabilize the thermal condition of the battery pack but does not discharge the battery.
High Voltage Battery Electrolyte Solution Characteristics: • Clear in color
• Sweet odor
• Similar viscosity to water
• Since the high voltage battery is made up of many small sealed battery modules, electrolyte solutionleakage should be minimal.
NOTE:
Other fluids in the vehicle (such as engine oil, washer fluid, brake fluid, coolant, etc.) are
the same as those in a conventional vehicle.
