Emergency Procedures

Submersion

Some emergency responses can involve a submerged vehicle. A NEXO that is submerged does not
have high-voltage components on the vehicle's body or framework. It is safe to touch the vehicle's
body or framework if there is no severe damage to the vehicle, whether it is in water or on land.
In the event the vehicle is submerged or partially submerged, remove the vehicle from the water
before attempting to disable the vehicle. Drain the water from the vehicle. Use one of the methods
described in sections of pages 17 to 22 to disable the vehicle.
WARNING
• If severe damage causes high-voltage components to become exposed, responders should take
appropriate precautions and wear appropriate insulated personal protective equipment.
• Do not attempt to remove the safety plug while in the water
Failure to follow any of these instructions may result in serious injury or death by electrocution.
