  • A high voltage battery that drives the motor and a 12 V battery that powers the lighting unit are built into the electric vehicle. If you notice any abnormalities with high voltage battery, contact your authorised dealer immediately.
  • 3WARNING

    High voltage is applied through all components of the vehicle and their wiring (orange colour).
    Disassembling or modifying the vehicle could cause you to suffer electric shock or a fire to ignite, which may kill or seriously injure you.


    Observe the following rules regarding these high-voltage parts.

  • Do not disassemble, modify, or touch these parts.
  • Contact your authorised dealer for inspections and repairs.
  • NOTICE

    If the vehicle is immersed in water, the water may cause a malfunction. Avoid riding through flooded roads.

  • Be aware of the following after a crash.
  • You may suffer from electric shock if you are involved in a crash that greatly damages or deforms the vehicle. Never touch high-voltage components or their wiring (orange colour).
  • Do not touch electrolyte solution. If any electrolyte solution gets in your eyes or on your skin, it may irritate your eyes and skin or cause burns.
    First-aid for emergencies
  • If a fire ignites, use a fire extinguisher suitable for electrical fires. Attempting to extinguish an electrical fire with a small quantity of water can be rather dangerous. When using water to extinguish an electrical fire in an emergency, make sure to use a large quantity of water from a fire hydrant or something similar.
  • 3WARNING

    Since your vehicle uses a high voltage battery, if you respond incorrectly when an accident occurs, it may cause unexpected problems that result in death or serious injury.


    If you are involved in a crash, follow the procedures and instructions stated in this manual.
