Vehicle Care
Warning (Continued)
If the vehicle is damaged from a
moderate to severe crash, flood, fire,
or other event, the vehicle should be
inspected as soon as possible. Until the
vehicle has been inspected, store it
outside at least 15 m (50 ft) from any
structure or anything that can burn.
Ventilate the vehicle by opening a
window or a door.
Contact Customer Assistance as soon as
possible to determine whether an
inspection is needed. See
.
If the vehicle is in a crash, the sensing
system may shut down the high voltage
system. When this occurs, the high voltage
battery is disconnected and the vehicle will
not start. The SERVICE VEHICLE SOON
message in the Driver Information Center
(DIC) will display. Before the vehicle can
operate again, it must be serviced at your
dealer. If a crash occurs or an airbag(s)
inflates, see
“
If a Crash Occurs
”
under
and
What Will You See after an Airbag Inflates?
for additional information.
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to keep the high voltage battery
temperature ready for the next drive. This is
important when outside temperatures are
extremely hot or cold.
Propulsion power may be reduced in
extremely cold temperatures, or if the high
voltage battery is too cold. The message
BATTERY TOO COLD, PLUG IN TO WARM will
display. If the message displays, a level 2
charger is required to heat the battery to a
minimum temperature to enable propulsion
or charging.
A vehicle cover, which can reduce sun
loading on the vehicle and improve high
voltage battery life, is available from your
dealer.
