GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
Your vehicle is equipped with a Lithium-ion high
voltage battery that is used to power the electric
powertrain systems and the 12 Volt vehicle
electrical system.
The high voltage battery is located under the
rear seat.
Lithium-ion batteries provide the following
benefits:
Lithium-ion batteries are much lighter than

other types of rechargeable batteries of the
same size.
Lithium-ion batteries hold their charge; they only

lose approximately three percent of their charge
per month.
Lithium-ion batteries have no memory, which

means that you do not have to completely
discharge them before recharging, as with some
other batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged and

discharged thousands of times.
High Voltage Battery Service Disconnect
The high voltage battery service disconnect is
located under the access panel, under the left side
rear seat.
If your vehicle requires high voltage battery
service, see an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Never try to remove the high voltage battery
service disconnect. The high voltage battery
service disconnect is used when your vehicle
requires service by a trained technician at an
authorized dealer. Failure to follow this warning
can cause severe burns or electrical shock that
may result in serious injury or death.
Disposal of the High Voltage Battery
Your vehicle's high voltage battery is designed to
last the life of your vehicle. See an authorized
dealer for information on the disposal of the
battery if it should require replacement.

NOTE:
During vehicle start up and shut down, a clicking
noise may be heard from within the vehicle. When
the vehicle is preparing to start, the high voltage
battery contactors inside the battery are closed to
make the stored electricity inside available for
vehicle use. After the vehicle is shut down, the
contactors open to electrically isolate the battery
from other vehicle systems. The clicking noise is
the sound of these contactors as they open and
close during normal operation.
