WARNING
When a vehicle accident occurs,
move the vehicle to a safe place,
turn OFF the vehicle and remove

If electric wires are exposed from

not touch the wires. Also, do not
touch the high voltage electric
wire (orange), connector, or any
of the electric components and
devices. This may cause electric
shock and lead to injuries.

the high voltage battery is dam -
aged, harmful gas and electrolytes
may leak. Be careful not to touch
the leaked liquid.
When you suspect leakage of
inflammable gas and other harmful
gases, open the windows and evac -
uate to a safe place. If any leaked
fluid comes in contact with your
eyes or skin, immediately clean the
affected area thoroughly with tap
water or saline solution and have
doctors inspect it as soon as possi -
ble.
