WARNING
3) The propulsion system of the electric
car is connected by the high-voltage
battery and when the system is active the
components are then powered at high-
voltage. Observe the warning messages on
the labels on the car when accessing the
motor compartment. Any intervention or
modification on the high-voltage electrical
system of the car (components, cables,
connectors, high-voltage battery) is
strictly forbidden due to the risks it may
imply for your safety. In this case, contact
a Jeep Dealership. Tampering with the
high-voltage system can lead to serious
burns or electrical discharges with even
fatal consequences.
4) Do not resell, give away or modify the
high-voltage battery. The high-voltage
battery must only be used on the vehicle
on which it is supplied. If used outside
the vehicle or modified, accidents such as
electric shock, heat or smoke generation,
explosion or electrolyte leakage may
occur. If the vehicle is scrapped without
removing the high-voltage battery, contact
with high-voltage components, cables and
connectors could cause very dangerous
electric shock. If the high-voltage battery
is not disposed of properly, it may cause
electric shock, resulting in serious injury
or death.
5) The mains power supply and the high-
voltage battery are potentially dangerous:
they can cause injury, burns and risk of
electrocution. Always take great care.
6) Never touch or tamper with the cables
and components of the high-voltage
battery in any way: do not allow the
high-voltage battery components to come
into contact with bracelets, necklaces or
any metal objects worn.
7) Do not open, modify or remove the
high-voltage battery cover: any gases
released may be harmful and flammable:
avoid inhaling the gases.
8) Damage to the vehicle or the high-
voltage battery may cause harmful gases
to escape, which could cause a fire. In
the event of a fire, move away from the
vehicle, wear a reflective vest (if required
by the regulations in force), position
yourself in a safe place, and immediately
contact the rescuers, police or fire brigade
informing them that this is a vehicle with
a high voltage system.
9) The electrolyte inside the battery is a
polluting and flammable material. If the
high-voltage battery is not disposed of
properly, it may cause fire and pollute the
environment.
10) Live parts of the car are marked with
safety warning labels. The high-voltage
battery bears a label indicating this
danger.
IMPORTANT
1) The high-voltage battery may only be
disconnected by qualified personnel at a
Jeep Dealership.
2) If, as a result of a violent impact or
accident, the car has hit the bottom
(underbody), have the battery and the
high-voltage system checked by qualified
technicians.
3) To preserve the mileage of your vehicle
and the durability of your traction battery,
Jeeps recommends that you; do not
fully charge the battery of your electric
vehicle daily (charge the traction battery
below 80% as often as possible); do not
completely discharge the battery; do not
store the vehicle for a long period of
non-use (more than 12 hours) when the
traction battery has a low or high charge
level. Prefer a charge level between 20
and 40%; limit the use of fast charging;
do not expose the vehicle to temperatures
below -30
°
C and above +60
°
C for more
than 24 hours; avoid charging the vehicle
at negative temperatures (except if the
vehicle ran more than 20 minutes) or
above +30
°
C; do not use the vehicle's
high-voltage battery as a generator of
energy; do not use a generator to recharge
your vehicle's high-voltage battery.
IMPORTANT
1)
Do not dispose of the battery yourself.
If the car is scrapped, it must be taken
to a Jeep Dealership to have the high-
voltage battery removed and disposed of
properly by the Jeep Dealership personnel
who have the technical skills to operate in
complete safety.
2) Live parts of the car are marked with
safety warning labels. The high-voltage
battery bears a label indicating this
danger.
