MAINTENANCEHANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
n Inspecting and Changing Fuses
Set the power mode to
VEHICLE OFF (LOCK). Turn off the
headlights and all accessories.
Remove the fuse box cover.
Check the large fuse in the hood.
If the fuse is blown, use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove
the screws and replace the fuse with a new one. Reinstall the
screws.
Inspect the small fuses in the hood and the vehicle interior.
If there is a burned out fuse, remove it with the fuse puller and
replace it with a new one.

Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances of damaging
the electrical system.
NOTICE
MAINTENANCE
Learn about basic maintenance that you can perform on the vehicle yourself, as well as
information about how to best maintain the vehicle.
Safety Precautions
Some of the most important safety precautions are listed below; however, we cannot warn you
of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance. Only you can decide
whether or not you should perform a given task.
n
Maintenance Safety
To reduce the possibility
of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from
the battery and all fuel-related parts.
Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects in the engine compartment.
To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not gasoline.
Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the battery or compressed
air.
Do not run the engine in confined spaces where carbon monoxide gas can accumulate.
n
Vehicle Safety
The vehicle must be stationary
, and parked on level ground with the parking brake set and
the engine off.
Be aware that hot parts can burn you.
Be aware that moving parts can injure you.

SPECIFICATIONSMAINTENANCE
• If possible, remove the vehicle from the garage or enclosed area, remove covering, and
periodically run the engine until it reaches full operating temperature (the cooling fan cycles
on and off twice). Preferably, do this once a month.
•
To maintain the High V
oltage battery, drive your vehicle for more than 30 minutes at least
once every three months.
If road conditions are not suitable or desirable for driving, the following alternate procedure can
be used to maintain the vehicle’s High Voltage battery if local laws permit idling:
1.
Remove
the vehicle from the garage or enclosed area to prevent carbon monoxide
accumulation.
2.
Depress the brake pedal and pr
ess the ENGINE START/STOP button as you normally would
to start the vehicle.
3.
Allow the vehicle
to run for 30 minutes. Time spent at idle stop still counts as part of this
30-minute run.
Paint Care
Your vehicle’s paint requires up to 60 days from the production date to fully cure. During this
time, avoid applying any wax or paint sealant-type products, as they could hinder the curing
process and affect the paint’s durability.
You may polish the paint during these 60 days if the polishes do not contain any wax or paint
sealant ingredients. Use only clean, high-quality microfiber towels or pads, as they are softer
material and have less chance of scratching the finish. It is absolutely necessary to keep the
microfiber towels or pads properly cleaned and maintained before using on your vehicle.
