Innovation, Science, and Economic
Development (ISED) Radiation Exposure
Statement
This equipment complies with RSS-102
radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with a
minimum distance of 5.7 cm (2.2 in) between
the radiator and any part of your body. The
vehicle design ensures this distance is
maintained during normal use. Changes or
modifications to any of these systems by
other than an authorized service facility
could void authorization to use this
equipment.
Vehicle Storage
The best way to store the vehicle for any
length of time is to plug in the charge cord
and leave it plugged in. The vehicle
monitors and maintains the 12-volt battery
daily. It is okay to leave the vehicle plugged
in for extended periods of time. Once
charged to full, very little energy is required
to maintain the 12-volt battery and high
voltage battery.
If it is not possible to charge the vehicle
with the charge cord left plugged in, be sure
to fully charge the high voltage battery
before storing. The vehicle will stop
maintenance of the 12-volt battery if the
high voltage battery state of charge gets
too low.
When storing the vehicle on a long-term
basis:
‐ Keep the high voltage battery state of
charge at 30%.
‐ Attach an AGM/VRLA compatible battery
tender or trickle charger to the 12-volt
battery.
‐ Keep the remote key more than 3 m
(10 ft) away from the vehicle.

eye protection. See Jump Starting - North
America 0 215 for tips on working around
a battery without getting hurt.
A trickle charger may be attached to the
12-volt battery terminals or trickle charge
from the underhood remote positive (+) and
negative (–) terminals. See Jump Starting -
North America 0 215 for location of these
terminals.
Caution
The vehicle is equipped with an
AGM/VRLA 12-volt battery, which can be
damaged by using the incorrect type of
trickle charger. An AGM/VRLA-compatible
charger must be used, with the
appropriate setting selected. Follow the
trickle charger manufacturer instructions.
With a trickle charger connected to the
12-volt battery, the vehicle will still monitor
the 12-volt battery daily, but it will not use
energy from the high voltage battery for
maintenance.
