Safety Precautions

WARNING: The hybrid system uses high voltage circuits, so improper handling could cause an electric shock or leakage. During service (including installation/removal, inspection and replacement of parts), be sure to follow the procedures.
WARNING:
  • When working on the high voltage systems, always wear insulating gloves.
  • Keep the removed service plug in your pocket to prevent other technicians from reconnecting it while you are servicing the vehicle.
  • After removing the service plug grip, do not touch the high voltage connectors and terminals for 5 minutes.
  • After removing the service plug grip, do not operate the power switch as it may damage the hybrid vehicle control ECU.
