When a vehicle accident occurs,
move the vehicle to a safe place, turn
OFF the vehicle and remove the aux-
iliary battery (12 V) terminal to pre-
vent high voltage electricity from
flowing. Remove the auxiliary battery
(12 V) terminal and turn it OFF.When you suspect leakage of inflam-
mable gas and other harmful gases,
open the windows and evacuate to a
safe place. If any leaked fluid comes
in contact with your eyes or skin,
immediately clean the affected area
thoroughly with tap water or saline
solution and have doctors inspect it
as soon as possible.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
ELECTRIC VEHICLE
Responding to Vehicle Accidents in your
Electric Vehicle
WARNING- Exposed
Wires & Electrical
Components
Do not touch electric wires that
may become exposed from
inside or outside the vehicle,
high voltage electric wires
(orange), connectors and all
electric components and
devices. Doing so may result in
electric shock and lead to
injuries.
WARNING- Damaged battery
Do not touch harmful gas and
electrolytes which may leak if
the high voltage battery is dam-
aged in an accident.WARNING- Vehicle fires
If a vehicle fire occurs, use a powder extinguisher for an
electric fire. If there is no pow-
der extinguisher for the electric
fire, use plenty of water to put
out the fire. If you do not use
enough water or use an inap-
propriate fire extinguisher, you
might get injured due to electric
shock.
When a vehicle fire occurs due to the battery, there is a risk of a
second fire. Contact the fire
department when towing the
vehicle.
