SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
(Altima Hybrid only)
Your Nissan Altima Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) 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, and electric
shock and even fatal injury.
To avoid personal injury, please follow all caution labels
attached to high-voltage parts. Do not touch or attempt
to remove or replace any high-voltage wiring and
connectors.
If an accident occurs, do not touch any high-voltage
wiring, connectors or parts such as the inverter unit or
high voltage battery assembly.
Do not touch the potassium hydroxide electrolyte that
might spill or leak from the high voltage 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 fi re occurs, extinguish it with a Class D
powder-type fi re extinguisher. Nissan recommends having maintenance and
repairs for your Altima Hybrid performed by an
authorized Nissan dealership. To locate your
nearest authorized Nissan dealership, contact the
Nissan Consumer Affairs Department at (800) -
