Electric Vehicle system
WARNING
● Carefully inspect the ground
under the vehicle. If leaked liq-
uid (other than water from the
air conditioning) is found on the
ground, the traction battery may
have been damaged. Leave the
vehicle as soon as possible.
In addition, contact your SUB-
ARU dealer with regard to the
leakage found on the ground.
Even in the event of a minor
accident, the traction battery
and surrounding parts may be
damaged. In case of an acci-
dent, have the traction battery
inspected at a SUBARU dealer.
■ Traction battery
● Your vehicle contains a sealed
lithium-ion battery.
● Never resell, hand over or mod-
ify the traction battery. To pre-
vent accidents, traction
batteries that have been
removed from a disposed vehi-
cle are collected through your
SUBARU dealer. Do not dis-
pose of the battery yourself.
Unless the battery is properly
collected, the following may
occur, resulting in death or seri-
ous injury:
• Do not illegally dispose of or
dump the traction battery, and it
is hazardous to the environment
or someone may touch a high
voltage part, resulting in an
electric shock.
• The traction battery is intended
to be used exclusively with your
battery electric vehicle. If the
traction battery is used outside
of your vehicle or modified in
any way, accidents such as
electric shock, heat generation,
smoke generation, an explo-
sion and electrolyte leakage
may occur. When reselling or
handing over your vehicle, the
possibility of an accident is
extremely high because the per-
son receiving the vehicle may
not be aware of the dangers
from these modifications.
● If your vehicle is disposed of
without the traction battery hav-
ing been removed, there is a
danger of serious electric shock
if high voltage parts, cables and
their connectors are touched. In
the event that your vehicle must
be disposed of, the traction bat-
tery must be disposed of by
your SUBARU dealer or a quali-
fied service shop. If the traction
battery is not disposed of prop-
erly, it may cause electric shock
that can result in death or seri-
ous injury.
● For information about traction
battery collection locations, con-
tact information, or the recycling
process, contact your SUBARU
dealer.
■ Caution while driving
● Pay special attention to the area
around the vehicle. Because
there is no engine noise, pedes-
trians, people riding bicycles or
other people and vehicles in the
area may not be aware of the
vehicle starting off or approach-
ing them, so take extra care
while driving. Therefore, take
extra care while driving even if
the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting
System is active.
