EMERGENCY RESPONSE

On arrival, emergency responders should follow
their standard operating procedures for vehicle
incidents. Emergencies involving the LS 600hL may
be handled like other vehicles except as
noted in these guidelines for Extrication, Fire,
Overhaul, Recovery, Spills, First Aid, and
Submersion.
WARNING:
• Never assume the LS 600hL is shut off simply
because it is silent.
• Always observe the instrument cluster for the
READY indicator status to verify whether the
vehicle is on or shut off. The vehicle is shut off
when the READY indicator is off.
• Failure to shut off the vehicle before emergency
response procedures are performed may result
in serious injury or death from the unintentional
deployment of the SRS or severe burns
and electric shock from the high voltage
electrical system.

Chock wheels and set the parking brake.

switch located on the dash to the left side of
the steering column (refer to illustration).

the instrument cluster (refer to illustration).
