CAUTION
Never touch, remove or disassemble
high voltage parts and cables.
Touching, removing or disassem-
bling those parts and cables can
cause severe burns or electric
shock that may result in death or
serious injury. For the locations of
high voltage parts and cables, see
“—High voltage components” on
page 6 in Section 1 1.
When the hybrid system is on, keep
hands, clothing, and tools away
from the moving fan. (Removing
rings, watches, and ties is advis-
able.)
Right after driving, the engine
compartment—the engine, radiator,
exhaust manifold and spark plug
boots, etc.—will be hot. So be care-
ful not to touch them. Oil, fluids
and spark plugs may also be hot.
If the radiator is hot, do not remove
the radiator cap or loosen the drain
plugs to prevent burning yourself.
Do not leave anything that may
burn easily, such as paper or rags,
in the engine compartment.
Do not smoke, cause sparks or al-
low open flames around fuel or the
battery. Their fumes are flammable.
When the hybrid system is operat-
ing with the “READY” light on, the
engine may suddenly start in some
cases. When you inspect the engine
compartment, be sure to turn off
the hybrid system.
Do not get under your vehicle with
just the body jack supporting it. Al-
ways use automotive jack stands or
other solid supports.
Be sure that the ignition is off if
you work near the electric cooling
fans or radiator grille. With the
ignition on, the electric cooling fans
will automatically start to run if the
engine coolant temperature is high
and/or the air conditioning is on.
Use eye protection whenever you
work on or under your vehicle
where you may be exposed to flying
or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
Brake fluid can harm your hands or
eyes and damage painted surfaces.
If fluid gets on your hands or in
your eyes, flush the affected area
with clean water immediately. If you
still feel uncomfortable with your
hands or eyes, go to the doctor.
Used engine oil contains potentially
harmful contaminants which may
cause skin disorders such as in-
flammation or skin cancer, so care
should be taken to avoid prolonged
and repeated contact with it. To re-
move used engine oil from your
skin, wash thoroughly with soap
and water.
Do not leave used oil within the
reach of children.
Dispose of used oil and filter only
in a safe and acceptable manner.
Do not dispose of used oil and fil-
ter in household trash, in sewers or
onto the ground. Call your dealer or
a service station for information
concerning recycling or disposal.
Be extremely cautious when work-
ing on the 12 volt battery. It con-
tains poisonous and corrosive
sulfuric acid.
