the inverter unit and drive battery. Anelectric shock may occur if exposed elec-tric wires are visible when viewed frominside or outside of
your vehicle. For their
locations, see “High-
voltage components”
on page 2-7.zIf the vehicle receives a strong impact tothe floor while driving, stop the vehicle ina safe place and

with a large amount of water and receiveimmediate medical attention to help avoidserious injury.zIf you are unable to safely assess the vehi-cle due to vehicle damage, do not touchthe vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contactemergency services. Advise emergencyresponders that this is a Plug-in Hybridvehicle.zIf a fire occurs in this vehicle, leave thevehicle as soon as possible and contactemergency services. Do not attempt toextinguish a fire by yourself. If the fireinvolves a lithium-ion battery, it willrequire large, sustained volumes of waterfor extinguishment. Using a small amountof water or the incorrect fire extinguishercan result in serious injury or death fromelectrical shock.zWhen you leave the vehicle, if possible,open the windows, doors and tailgate toprevent accumulation of poisonous/com-bustible gasses. This will
also assist in the
rescue and fire fighting process.WA R N I N G
zAs with any vehicle fire, the byproducts ofcombustion can be toxic. Do not inhalesmoke, vapors, or gas from the vehicle.Move to a safe distance upwind and uphillfrom the vehicle fire and out of the way ofany oncoming traffic while awaiting thearrival of emergency responders.zIf you detect leaking fluids, sparks, smoke,flames, gurgling, popping or hissing noisesoriginating from the high voltage batterycompartment, contact emergency servicesimmediately. This may result in a fire.zPhysical damage to the vehicle or highvoltage battery may result in immediate ordelayed release of toxic and/or flammablegases and fire.zIf your vehicle needs to be towed, trans-port the vehicle on a
flatbed truck or tow
the vehicle with all wheels off the ground.If the any wheels are on the ground whentowing, this may cause damage to the elec-tric motors. This may also cause a fire, ifwiring in the electric motor unit roombecomes damaged. Refer to “Towing” onpage 9-19.zDo not attempt to repair a damaged Plug-in Hybrid vehicle by yourself.
