Vehicle Considerations
In the event of damage or fire
involving an electric vehicle (EV)
or hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV):
• Always assume the high-voltage
battery and associated
components are energized and
fully charged.
• Exposed electrical components,
wires and high-voltage batteries
present potential high-voltage
shock hazards.
• Venting/off-gassing high-voltage
battery vapors are potentially toxic
and flammable.
• Physical damage to the vehicle or
high-voltage battery may result in
immediate or delayed release of
toxic, flammable gases and fire.
