Hybrid battery cooling duct (Hybrid vehicle)
The hybrid battery cooling duct is located under the rear seats. The cooling duct cools down the hybrid battery. When the hybrid battery cooling duct is blocked, the hybrid battery may be overheated.
Clean the cooling duct for the hybrid battery with a dry cloth on a regular basis.
Air Intake
-
Blocking the air intake behind the rear seats may damage the HEV battery.
-
Do not allow any water in the air intake even when cleaning. If any water enters the air intake, the Hybrid battery may cause an electric shock which can cause serious injury or death due to electrocution.
Interference with electronic medical devices
-
Electromagnetic waves that are generated from the charger can impact medical electric devices such as an implantable cardiac pacemaker. When using such medical electric devices, ask your medical professional and the device manufacturer whether charging your electric vehicle will impact the operation of the medical electric devices.
