If a small scale fire occurs, use
a fire extinguisher (ABC, BC)
that is meant for electrical fires.
If it is impossible to extinguish
the fire in the early stage,
remain a safe distance from the
vehicle and immediately call
911. Also, advise them that a
hybrid vehicle is involved.
If the fire spreads to the high
voltage battery, large amount of
water is needed to put out the
fire. Using small amount of
water or fire extinguishers not
meant for electrical fires could
cause serious injury or death
from electrical shocks.
