3-3 How to Handle a Damaged Vehicle at an Accident Scene
NO
TE:
If any air bags have deployed in the following 3 situations, the high-voltage (HV) system has
been designed to automatically shut off at the time of deployment.
The Nissan Rogue HYBRID high-voltage system incorporates capacitors which are energized whenever the
high-voltage system is on. If the high-voltage system is shut down (either through one of the built-in
automatic mechanisms or manually through one of the procedures explained in this FRG) , the capacitors
will begin to gradually discharge. Complete discharge requires approximately 10 minutes after
high-voltage system shut down. It is within this period of time that responders must be most cautious.
When arriving to an incident involving an Nissan Rogue HYBRID, the vehicle should be approached with
caution and inspected for the level of damage. In addition to overall vehicle condition (location and severity
of body damage, air bag deployment, etc.) , the high-voltage system should be assessed specifically. The
locations of the high-voltage component parts are illustrated in this FRG. Refer to 2-2 High-voltage-
Related

and 12-Volt-Related Component Locations and Descriptions (FRG–11) . Appropriate personal pro-
tective

equipment (PPE) must always be worn when approaching a vehicle of unknown condition, as
described in this FRG.
Situation 1) High-voltage (HV) system intact, occupants can be accessed without extrication tools
The HV system can be shut down by following the procedure in this guide, while wearing appropriate PPE.
After HV system shut down, occupant assistance operations can begin immediately, and no wait period
is necessary.
Situation 2) High-voltage (HV) system intact, occupants cannot be accessed without extrication tools
The HV system can be shut down by following the procedure in this guide, while wearing appropriate PPE.
After HV system shut down, absolute care must be taken never to cut through or damage any HV system
wiring, battery or components within approximately ten (10) minutes of HV system shut down,
but occupant assistance operations using extrication equipment can begin immediately. The locations of the
HV component parts are illustrated in this guide.
Situation 3) High-voltage (HV) system damaged
If there is any evidence that the HV system has been compromised (such as arcing/sparking, orange wiring
harnesses cut or damaged, HV component casings damaged, etc.) , the responder may still be at risk of
high-voltage exposure. The vehicle must be approached with extreme caution prior to initiating any system
shut down procedures or rendering assistance to occupants. Appropriate PPE must always be worn as
described in this guide, and the approximate ten (10) minute wait time must be observed after HV
system shut down in order to ensure the system is de-energized.
In rare situations where vehicle damage is very severe, HV system shut down procedures as described in
this guide may not work. In these instances extreme caution and appropriate risk management must be
followed to prevent shock or electrocution to the responder or occupant.

6. Open luggage compartment, release the 2 push pin retainers
(A)and lift rear luggage board.
Detach the 2 straps (B)and remove the rear luggage board.
7. Use a suitable tool (A)to release the locking tabs and
remove the service plug access cover.
8. Remove the service plug (A)by pulling the locking lever (B), then pressing the locking tab (C)
and rotating the handle (D)fully outward. Using the handle, pull the service plug (E)completely
out of its socket.
9. Wait approximately ten (10) minutes for complete discharge of the high-voltage capacitor
after the service plug has been removed. AAYIA0535ZZ

3-3.4 Cutting the Vehicle Body
DANGER
• Do not cut into high-voltage related areas to avoid severe personal injury or death.
• Do not cut into the high-voltage battery to avoid severe personal injury or death.
• When removing parts, NEVER touch the high-voltage parts or the insides of the
exposed orange-colored high-voltage cables to avoid severe personal injury or death.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must always be worn when touching or
working on high-voltage components. Do not cut air bag parts to avoid unintended deployment of the air bags and the risk of
severe

personal injury or death.
If at least approximately ten (10) minutes have passed since the rescuer shut down the high-voltage
system [refer to 3-3.1 High-voltage System Shut-Down Procedure (FRG–21)], then the rescuer can cut
the

vehicle except for the high-voltage battery. If the rescuer cannot wait approximately ten (10) minutes or shut down the high-voltage
system,

absolute care must be taken to avoid cutting high-voltage parts and appropriate
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must always be worn. DO NOT cut the high-voltage
battery due to possible electrocution risk and electrolyte solution leakage.
