Lexus 2013 ES 300h Warranty And Services Manual page 2

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your ES 300h is a gas/electric hybrid
vehicle that has both high-voltage DC
and AC systems as well as a 12-volt
system. Both DC and AC high voltage
are very dangerous and can cause
personal injury, severe burns, electric
shock and even fatal injury unless ap-
propriate precautions are taken.
To avoid personal injury, please follow
all caution labels attached to high-volt-
age parts. Do not touch or attempt to
remove or replace any high-voltage
(orange-colored) wiring and connec-
tors. Never try to open the service
plug access hole located in the lug-
gage compartment.
If an accident occurs, do not touch
any high-voltage parts, cables or con-
nectors or parts such as the DC/DC
converter under the hood or the
hybrid battery assembly behind the
rear seats.
Do not touch the potassium hydroxide
electrolyte that might spill or leak
from the hybrid battery as the result of
an accident. If potassium hydroxide
electrolyte gets on your skin or in
your eyes, neutralize it immediately
with a saturated boric acid solution
(ratio: 80 grams boric acid to two
liters water). Seek immediate medical
attention.
If a vehicle fire occurs, extinguish
it with a Class D powder-type fire
extinguisher.
