361-1. Hybrid systemCT200h_U (OM76040U)■Electromagnetic waves●High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles incorporate electromag-netic shielding, and therefore emit approximately the same amount of electro-magnetic waves as conventional gasoline powered vehicles or home electronicappliances.●Your vehicle may cause sound interference in some third party-produced radioparts.■Hybrid battery (traction battery)The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life. The lifespan of thehybrid battery (traction battery) can chan ge in accordance with driving style anddriving conditions.CAUTION■High voltage precautionsThe vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-volt system. DCand AC high voltage is very dangerous and can cause severe burns and electricshock that may result in death or serious injury.●Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts, cables ortheir connectors.●The hybrid system will become hot after starting as the system uses high voltage.Be careful of both the high voltage and the high temperature, and always obeythe caution labels attached to the vehicle.●Never try to open the service plug accesshole located in the luggage compartment.The service plug is used only when thevehicle is serviced and is subject to highvoltage.
