CAUTION
●
Carefully check to see if there are exposed high voltage parts or cables.
Never touch the parts or cables. (P. 32)
● Carefully inspect the ground under the vehicle. If you find that liquid (other
than water from the air conditioning) has leaked onto the ground, the trac-
tion battery may have been damaged. Leave the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble.
■ Traction battery (lithium-ion battery) replacement and disposal
Do not replace, dispose of, modify, or reuse the traction battery and do not
use it for anything other than its intended use. Contact your Toyota dealer for
replacement or disposal.
If the traction battery is replaced, disposed of, modified or reused in \
an
improper way, or if the traction battery is used in a way it is not intended for,
there is a risk of severe burns and electrical shock that may result in death or
serious injury.
Also, improper handling of the traction battery can lead to environmental
hazards.

The RAV4 EV does not make the sounds that a gasoline vehicle makes. As
such, pedestrians, people riding bicycles or other people and vehicles in the
surrounding area may not be aware of t he vehicle starting off or approaching
