y;
– in the event of contact with the body, wash the affected area with plenty of water and consult a doctor as soon as possibl\
e.
In the event of an impact, even slight, against the charging flap and/or\
valve, have them checked by an authorised dealer as
soon as possible.
In the event of fire
In the event of fire, make everyone evacuate the vehicle immediately and\
contact the emergency services, informing them that
this is an electric vehicle.
Only use extinguishing agents ABC or BC that are permitted for use with electrical fires. Do not use w\
ater or other extinguish-
