Hybrid System
The hybrid system of the CR-V HYBRID uses high voltage that exceed 260V in total voltage.
Therefore, precautions and handling is required to address the high voltage in order to perform the rescue operations.
• If the orange-coloured high voltage cables, high voltage covers, etc. are damaged to expose the wires,
terminals, etc., make absolutely sure to never come into contact with the exposed areas. In addition, do
not touch even when it is unknown whether the exposed wires or terminal are high voltage areas or not. If
it is touched inadvertently, there is a risk of death or serious injury due to serious burns or electric shock.
• If there is no other option available but to touch the exposed portion of high voltage cables and high voltage parts, al-
ways make sure to wear protective gear [insulated gloves, protective glasses, insulated shoes]
• If authorized personnel concerned will be separating from the vehicle such as to store the vehicle after processing the
accident scene, etc., to keep any other person from touching the hybrid vehicle inadvertently, please post a sign saying
“WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGE, DO NOT TOUCH” on the vehicle.
What to Prepare
In order to perform rescue operations on a CR-V HYBRID, please prepare the following items beforehand.
① Protective gear [insulated gloves, protective glasses, insulated shoes]
② ABC fire extinguisher
③ Solvent resistant protective gear [Gas mask (for organic gas), rubber gloves (for chemical resistance)]
④ Rag or old towel
High Voltage Parts
The high voltage parts of the CR-V HYBRID are as shown.
Electric motors
High voltage cables
High voltage battery
(Lithium ion battery)
The area surrounded by the dotted line in the
illustration indicates the high voltage parts.
The high voltage cables are orange so that they
can be identified.
