Page 49: Spills
The XV Crosstrek Hybrid contains the same common automotive fluids used in other non-hybrid Subaru vehicles, with the exception of the NiMH electrolyte used in the high voltage battery. The NiMH battery electrolyte is a caustic alkaline (pH 13.5) that is damaging to human tissues. The electrolyte, however, is absorbed in the cell plates and will not normally spill or leak out even if a battery module is cracked. -
Page 50: First Aid
Emergency Response (Continued) First Aid Emergency responders may not be familiar with a NiMH electrolyte exposure when rendering aid to a patient. Exposure to the electrolyte is unlikely except in a catastrophic crash or through improper handling. Utilize the following guidelines in the event of exposure. WARNING: The NiMH battery electrolyte is a caustic alkaline (pH 13.5) that is damaging to human tissues. -
Page 51: Submersion
