Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Upon Arrival Start Here




On arrival, first responders should follow their standard operating procedures for vehicle incidents. Emergencies involving the Altima Hybrid may be handled like other automobiles , except as noted in these guidelines for Extrication, Fire, Recovery, Spills, First Aid, and Submersion.

DANGER:
Failure to disable the high voltage electrical system before emergency response procedures are performed may result in serious injury or death from electrical shock. Failure to disable the low and high voltage electrical systems before emergency response procedures are performed may result in serious injury or death from the unintentional deployment of the SRS.

WARNING:
Never assume that the Altima Hybrid is shut off simply because it is quiet. Always observe the instrument cluster for the READY operation indicator light (green) status to verify whether the vehicle is on or shut off. The vehicle is shut off when the READY operation indicator light (green) is off. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as insulated rubber gloves, insulated rubber boots, and insulated rubber mats must be used when disabling the high voltage electrical system.
