GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
This battery pack should only be
serviced by an authorized electric
vehicle technician. Improper handling can
result in personal injury or death. Note:
The high voltage battery does not
require regular service maintenance.
Your vehicle consists of various high voltage
components and wiring. All of the high
voltage power flows through specific wiring
assemblies which are labeled as such or that
are covered with a solid orange convolute,
orange striped tape or both. Do not come in
contact with these components.
The high voltage battery system is a high
voltage, lithium-ion battery system. The pack
is located in the rear cargo area. The high
voltage battery system uses an air-cooled
system to regulate the high voltage battery
temperature and help maximize high voltage
battery life. Note:
The high voltage battery is equipped
with air vents in the package tray that help
to regulate its temperature. It is important to
keep these openings free of obstructions.
Do not block the flow of cabin air to this
area.
HIGH VOLTAGE SERVICE
DISCONNECT
The high voltage service disconnect turns
off power from the high voltage battery.
There is a disconnect circuit in your vehicle.
Disconnecting the circuit will automatically
disable the high voltage battery. To disable the battery and stop all high
voltage electric activity in the vehicle, you
can access the high voltage disconnect
circuit. To do this, you must unplug the circuit
from the circuit port connected to the battery.
The service disconnect is equipped with an
outer lever. This is to aid in properly seating
the service disconnect lever. Remove this to
disconnect the high voltage service
disconnect.
The high voltage service disconnect is
located behind the rear fold down seats.
Disabling the High Voltage Battery
1. Fold down the rear seats.
2. Locate the access door and remove the
plastic cover.
