In Case Of Submersion - Hyundai IONIQ 5 Emergency Response Manual

7. In case of submersion

7.1 Submerged or Partially Submerged Vehicles
Some emergency responses can involve a submerged vehicle. IONIQ 5 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 of 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 page 7-9 to disable the vehicle.
Then, discharge the battery by referring to page 23-24.
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 a safety plug while the vehicle is in water.
•
Failure to follow these instructions can lead to death or serious injury by electrocution.
