If driving such as continuous high-speed driving or continuous climbing is performed repeatedly, the drive battery or the transaxle will become
hot, and in rare cases, the following phenomena may occur.
The Hybrid EV System uses high-voltage
up to DC 650 volt. The system can be hot
during and after starting and when the
vehicle is shut off. Be careful of both the
high-voltage and the high temperature.
Follow the warning labels that are
attached to the vehicle.
Always assume the high-voltage battery
and associated components are energized
and fully charged.
Never perform servicing when READY
indicator is illuminating because the high-
voltage system is operating.
High-voltage parts may be operating in
the vehicle even when the vehicle is not
driving. Do not remove the cover under
the front seats and touch the vehicle parts
inside, as there is a risk of electric shock.
Cautions and actions to deal with intense heat
Phenomena Corrective action
When the drive battery or the transaxle is hot, the vehicle performance
may be decreased or the vehicle cannot be driven.
Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place.
When the temperature in the vicinity of the drive battery or the
transaxle has lowered, start up.
