Introduction
Introduction
The SF90 STRADALE is a hybrid vehicle: traction is supplied by an
internal combustion engine (
ICE ) and three electric motors ( E1 , E2 , E3 )
which use the energy stored in a high voltage battery situated behind the
seats, above the chassis.
More specifically, the SF90 STRADALE has a PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid
Electric Vehicle) hybrid system: the internal combustion engine is
integrated with three electric motors, two independent ones on the front
axle (RAC-E system) and one at the rear (MGUK) between the engine and
the gearbox.
In certain driving conditions, the electric motors also act as generators by
capturing the kinetic energy that would normally be lost as heat energy
and transforming it into electricity to recharge the high voltage battery.

This guide provides the information required to act as safely as possible
if this vehicle is involved in an emergency situation. The emergency
procedures for the SF90 STRADALE are similar to those for conventional
vehicles with the addition of specific information related to the presence
of high voltage components. This guide also describes the procedure for
deactivating the high voltage system in an emergency.
The main priority for emergency response personnel is to help save the
lives of accident victims without exposing the victims or themselves to
further risk. This emergency response manual contains information on
how quick, safe access to accident victims can be facilitated. Since the
materials and production engineering used in the automotive industry
are constantly evolving, we recommend using state-of-the-art emergency
equipment.
Danger - High voltage
A failure to observe the procedures outlined here during an emergency
response can result in severe burns or electric shocks which can also
be fatal. Please read this manual carefully to fully understand the
characteristics of this vehicle and act correctly if it is involved in an
accident. By closely following the procedures indicated here, you will
contribute to the success of any emergency response operations.
Whenever you have to intervene on a damaged hybrid vehicle which has
been involved in an accident or fire or in rescue or recovery situations,
always assume that the vehicle's high voltage system is powered up.
