High Voltage Battery; Fuses - Subaru CROSSTREK HYBRID 2016 Owner's Manual

High voltage battery

The high voltage battery is charged from
the operation of the engine and regenera-
tive brakes. Because of this, you do not
have to charge the high voltage battery
from an outside source.
However, in order to maintain the battery
in good condition, drive the vehicle at least
once every month for at least 30 minutes.
If you leave the vehicle for a long time, the
battery may discharge or the life of the
battery may be shortened.

Fuses

CAUTION
Never replace a fuse with one hav-
ing a higher rating or with material
other than a fuse because serious
damage or a fire could result.
CAUTION
When replacing a fuse, do not touch
the area around the front bumper.
Also, do not put tools or cloths in
this area. If any function of the
cooling system operates, it may lead
to an injury or a failure of the
cooling system.
Maintenance and service/Fuses
The fuses are designed to melt during an
overload to prevent damage to the wiring
harness and electrical equipment. The
fuses are located in two fuse boxes.
One is located under the instrument panel
behind the fuse box cover on the driver s
seat side. To remove the cover, pull it out.
