FULLY OR PARTIALLY SUBMERGED VEHICLES
Treat a submerged Model S like any other vehicle. The body of the vehicle
does not present a risk of shock in water. Remove the vehicle from the water
and continue with normal high voltage disabling.
PUSHING ON THE FLOOR PAN
The high voltage battery is located below the floor pan. Never push down
on the floor pan from inside Model S. Doing so can breach the high voltage
battery, which can cause serious injury or death.
