When performing inspection and mainte-
nance, be careful in the following points.
 In the event of an accident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle
should be delivered to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorised Service Point to
have the drive battery and high voltage
parts such as the inverter, including the
attached wiring harness, removed prior to
painting. If exposed to heat in the paint
booth, the drive battery will experience
battery capacity loss.
A damaged drive battery can also pose
safety risks to untrained mechanics and
repair personnel.

vated and the high-voltage system will auto-
matically turn off under the following

vated, the ready indicator is turned off. Refer
to “Indicator and warning lamps” on page

contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ised Service Point.
