If your vehicle requires professional service, your dealership can provide

PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING YOUR VEHICLE
• Do not work on a hot engine.
• Make sure that nothing gets caught in moving parts.
• Do not work on a vehicle with the engine running in an enclosed
space, unless you are sure you have enough ventilation.
• Keep all open flames and other lit material away from the battery and
all fuel related parts.

death. High voltage components must be serviced by a trained
service technician.

of the high voltage power flows through specific wiring assemblies which
are labeled as such and/or are covered with a solid orange convolute or
