No. Component
LocationDescription
Lithium-ion
(Li-ion)
Battery Trunk area (behind
rear seat back) The Li-ion battery stores and outputs DC
power (Maximum voltage 400V) needed to
propel the vehicle.
DC/DC Converter Trunk area (mounted
to top of Li-ion bat-
tery) The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of
the Li-ion battery to provide power to the 12V
battery in order to operate the vehicle’s electric
components (headlights, audio system, etc.) .
Service Plug Trunk area (below
parcel shelf; behind
access door in trim
panel) This is used to disable the high voltage system.
12V Battery Trunk area (below
parcel shelf; behind
trim panel left of
Li-ion battery) A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the
low voltage devices.
High Voltage Har-
nesses Trunk area (on Li-ion
battery) , under floor
pan, engine com-
partment Orange-colored power cables carry high DC
voltage between each of the high voltage com-
ponents.
Electric Air Condi-
tioner Compressor Engine compart-
ment (front driver
side) Air conditioner compressor
Traction Motor
Inverter Engine compart-
ment (rear passen-
ger side) Converts the DC power stored in the Li-ion
battery to three-phase AC power and controls
motor torque (revolution) by regulating the
motor current. The inverter has a built in high
voltage capacitor.
Traction Motor Built-into the trans-
mission Converts three-phase alternating current (AC)
power to drive power (torque) which propels
the vehicle.

3-2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Insulated Tools
3-2.1
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Protective Wear Control
Perform an inspection of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) items before beginning work. Do not use
any damaged PPE items.
3-2.2 Daily Inspection
This inspection is performed before and after use. The worker who will be using the items should perform
the inspection and check for deterioration and damage. • Insulated rubber gloves should be inspected for scratches, holes and tears. (Visual check and airleakage test)
• Insulated safety boots should be inspected for holes, damage, nails, metal pieces, wear or other problems on the soles. (Visual check)
• Insulated rubber sheet should be inspected for tears. (Visual check)
3-2.3 Insulated Tools
When performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
3-3 Discharge Procedures Do not perform this procedure if the high voltage battery is damaged. If you are unsure of
battery

damage, use extreme caution and always wear appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) when working on high voltage components.
Li-ion battery discharging must take place before dismantling. Sufficient discharging can be achieved by
following these steps. 1. Place the shift selector into the Park (P) position
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Set wheel chocks to ensure the vehicle is completely stopped.
4. Fasten the driver seat belt and close the driver door.
5. Apply foot brake and press the ignition switch to turn the system ON. Confirm READY indicator in instrument cluster turns ON.
a.
If the engine starts, leave the engine on until idling stops.
b. If the engine does NOT start, move on to next step.
6. Remove the shift lock cover (A) using a suitable tool.
7. Push down the shift lock (B) as shown in the illustration.
8. Push the shift selector button (C) and move the shift selector to Neutral (N) position (D) while holding down
the shift lock.
NOTE:
DO NOT press accelerator or foot brake after
moving the shift selector to the Neutral (N)
position. Otherwise Li-ion battery will start to be
charged. AAYIA0067ZZ

SRS Air Bag System Components Location
The
SRS air bag system must not be cut as there is a risk of short circuit and unintentional deployment of
the SRS However, the vehicle can be cut (except inflators) under the following conditions: • The front, side and curtain air bags have deployed.
• At least three (3) minutes have passed after the 12V battery negative (-) cable has beendisconnected and the high voltage system has been shut down.
