Cutting

Regardless of the high voltage isolation procedure used, care should always be taken with all high-voltage components to avoid possible power-on risks. Cutting, squeezing or touching high-voltage components may cause severe injury or death. When cutting a vehicle, please use the correct and appropriate tools (such as hydraulic cutter) and always wear suitable personal protective equipment, otherwise severe injury or death may be caused.

• Components such as the high-voltage system and its components, gas spring and supplementary restraint system (SRS) are defined as non-cuttable areas (circled in red in the figure). Do not cut or squeeze these areas, failure to observe this may result in severe injury or even death. High-voltage components can be cut only after the high voltage is disconnected, except for high-voltage battery pack.
• To protect the driver and passengers, some areas of the vehicle body are made of ultra-high strength steel, therefore these areas (indicated by the cyan colour areas in the figure) should be demolished or expanded using the appropriate tools during rescue. RWD Model
