11. Can I wash my FCEV with pressurized
water? What if water flows into the fuel
cell power module compartment?
Every component housed in the fuel cell power module compart-
ment is designed to be waterproof like those found in standard vehi-
cles. Therefore, a short circuit of the FCEV cannot happen while
washing the car. However, your FCEV works by utilizing high-voltage
electric power, so it is recommended that you avoid high-pressure car
washes. If the insulation resistance of the FCEV deteriorates due to
car wash, a High voltage warning light may turn on the cluster.

12. When washing the fuel cell power mod-
ule compartment, is there any potential
risk of electric shock resulting from a

The FCEV is designed to be a waterproof structure, but please
avoid washing the inside of the compartment if possible. Because
there are many high voltage parts in the power module compart-
ment.
13. Can I wash the bottom of the vehicle? If
