Electromagnetic waves
●
High voltage parts and cables on
hybrid vehicles incorporate electro-
magnetic shielding, and therefore emit
approximately the same amount of
electromagnetic waves as conven-
tional gasoline powered vehicles or
home electronic appliances.
●
Your vehicle may cause sound inter-
ference in some third party-produced
radio parts.
■
Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has
a limited service life. The lifespan of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) can
change in accordance with driving style
and driving conditions.
■
Declaration of conformity
This model conforms to hydrogen emis-
sions according to regulation ECE100
(Battery electric vehicle safety).
WARNING
■
High voltage precautions
This vehicle has high voltage DC and
AC systems as well as a 12-volt sys-
tem. DC and AC high voltage is very
dangerous and can cause severe
burns and electric shock that may
result in death or serious injury.
●
Never touch, disassemble, remove
or replace the high voltage parts,
cables or their connectors.
●
The hybrid system will become hot
after starting as the system uses
high voltage. Be careful of both the
high voltage and the high tempera-
ture, and always obey the warning
labels attached to the vehicle.

Never try to open the service plug
access hole located under the right
side of the rear seat. The service

Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of death or serious
injury:
●
Pull your vehicle off the road, apply
the parking brake, shift the shift
lever to P, and turn the hybrid sys-
tem off.
●
Do not touch the high voltage parts,
cables and connectors.
●
If electric wires are exposed inside
or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch
exposed electric wires.
●
If a fluid leak occurs, do not touch
the fluid as it may be strong alkaline
electrolyte from the hybrid battery
(traction battery). If it comes into
contact with your skin or eyes,
wash it off immediately with a large
amount of water or, if possible,
boric acid solution. Seek immediate
medical attention.
●
If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle,
leave the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble. Never use a fire extinguisher
that is not meant for electric fires.
Using even a small amount of water
may be dangerous.
