3. Roadside Assistance Response Steps
• NEVER assume the LEAF is shut OFF simply because it is quiet.
• If the vehicle is damaged and you are not sure about the condition of the electric
vehicle system, contact first responders immediately. If the vehicle is damaged, the
high-voltage system should be shut down by first responders while following the
procedures in the First Responders Guide and while wearing appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) .

is
active.

is
OFF and the high-voltage system is stopped.
