NOTE:
Components with white number in black background are high voltage components.No. Component
LocationDescription
a Charge
port Under hood Connecting port for EVSE (Electric Vehicle
Supply Equipment) . Two ports are available:
Normal charge and quick charge (if so
equipped) .
b High voltage
cables Under hood and
undercarriage Orange-colored power cables carry high volt-
age current between each of the high voltage
components.
c Traction Motor Under hood Converts three-phase AC power to drive
power (torque) which propels the vehicle.
Inverter Under hood Converts the DC power stored in the Li-ion
battery to three-phase AC power and controls
motor torque (revolution) by regulating the
motor current.
Electric air condi-
tioner compressor Under hood
Air conditioner compressor
Power Distribution
Module (PDM)
• On Board Charger
• DC/DC Converter
• High voltage junction box (J/B) Under hood
The PDM includes an On Board Charger, DC/DC
converter and high voltage junction box (J/B) .
The On Board Charger converts single-phase AC
power from a home power outlet to DC power and
increases the voltage in order to charge the Li-ion
battery.
The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of the Li-ion
battery to provide power to the 12V battery in order to
operate the vehicle’s electric components (headlights,
audio system, etc.) .
The J/B provides electric power from the Li-ion battery
to all high voltage parts of the vehicle.
d 12V Battery Under hood A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the low
voltage devices.
e Cabin heater Interior (This unit is
installed behind the
instrument panel) This is the electric heat source for the cabin
heater. It heats the interior of the vehicle.
f Li-ion (Lithium ion)
battery Undercarriage Stores and outputs DC power (Maximum voltage
398.4V) needed to propel the vehicle.
g High voltage battery
service disconnect Rear seat floor Isolates the battery from the rest of the high volt-
age electrical system.
h Brake power supply
backup unit Cargo area (This unit
is installed behind a
trim panel to prevent
access) Power supply backup unit for the brake system. It
supplies power to the brake system if a malfunc-
tion occurs in the 12V battery.

Cabin Fuse Box Location
NO
TE:
Insert a screwdriver wrapped with a protective cloth (A) into the slit (1) . Pull to remove the fuse
box cover (2) . Remove the fuse with the fuse puller (3) .
7. Release the parking brake.
8. Turn the power switch OFF.
9. Release brake pedal. To avoid possible personal injury or vehicle damage, use wheel chocks or take appropriate
steps
to prevent the vehicle from rolling freely.
Be sure to firmly position wheel chocks when P (Park) position is manually released.
4-2.1 Reset Procedure 1. Install the 2 fuses removed previously.
2. Turn the power switch ON and wait 5 seconds without pressing the brake pedal. Ensure selectorlever is in the N (neutral) position.
3. If 12V battery is low voltage, please charge with battery charger.
4. Turn the power switch OFF and wait 5 seconds.

5-2.3 Insulated Tools
When
performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
5-3 Removing the Service Plug • Do not remove the service plug without always wearing appropriate Personal
Protective
Equipment (PPE) to help protect the responder from serious injury or death
by electrical shock.
• Immediately cover the service plug socket with insulated tape. The Li-ion battery
retains
high voltage power even when the service plug is removed. To avoid electric
shock, DO NOT touch the terminals inside the socket. To avoid unintended reinstallation and risk of electrical shock and severe personal injury
or
death, the service plug should be securely stored away from the vehicle while the vehicle
is in storage.
1. Check the READY indicator status. If it is ON, the high voltage system is active.
2.
Place the selector lever in the Park (P) position.
3. Press the power switch once to turn OFF the high voltage system. Then verify whether the READY indicator is OFF.
4.
Insert a suitable tool (1) under the RH rear corner of the
access trim cover located on the floor behind the center
console. Pry up (2) and remove.
