Based on discussions with rescue professionals, we
recommend that emergency response personnel follow
standard procedures developed by their own organization
for assessing situations and dealing with potential hazards.
Given our knowledge of the Civic Hybrid, we also
recommend you use the procedures outlined in this section.
Incidents Involving Fire
If the vehicle or its IPU compartment becomes involved in
a fire, there are no unusual hazards; follow standard fire-
fighting procedures.
Submerged or Partially Submerged Vehicle
Pull the vehicle out of the water, then use one of the
procedures under Preventing Current Flow Through the
High-Voltage Cables to reduce the possibility of current
flow. There is no danger of electric shock from touching
the car body or framework.
Preventing Current Flow Through the
High-Voltage Cables
Before attempting to rescue occupants or moving a
damaged vehicle, you should reduce the potential for
current to flow from the electric motor or battery module
through the high-voltage cables. Here are three ways to do
this, from the best method to the least desirable.
