Lincoln Aviator: Roadside Emergencies / Collision, Damage or Fire Event
Guidance for Ford Motor Company Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicles
Equipped With High Voltage Batteries
(Vehicle Owner/Operator/General Public) Electric and Hybrid-Electric
Vehicle Considerations
In the event of damage or fire involving an
electric vehicle or hybrid-electric vehicle:
- Always assume the high-voltage battery
and associated components are
energized and fully charged.
- Exposed electrical components, wires,
and high-voltage batteries present
potential high-voltage shock hazards.
- Venting high-voltage battery vapors are
potentially toxic and flammable.
- Physical damage to the vehicle or
high-voltage battery may result in
immediate or delayed release of toxic,
flammable gases and fire.
Vehicle information and general safety
practices:
- Know the make and model of your
vehicle.
- Review the owner’s manual and become
familiar with your vehicle’s safety
information and recommended safety
practices.
- Do not attempt to repair damaged
electric and hybrid-electric vehicles
yourself.
Contact an authorized dealer.
Crashes
A crash or impact significant enough to
require an emergency response for
conventional vehicles would also require the
same response for an electric or
hybrid-electric vehicle.
If possible:
- Move your vehicle to a safe, nearby
location and remain on the scene.
- Roll down the windows before switching
your vehicle off.
- Place your vehicle in park (P), set the
parking brake, switch off the vehicle,
activate the hazard warning flashers and
move your key(s) at least 15 ft (5 m) away
from the vehicle.
Always:
- Call emergency assistance if needed and
advise that an electric or hybrid-electric
vehicle is involved.
- Exposed electrical components, wires,
and high-voltage batteries present
potential high-voltage shock hazards.
- Avoid contact with leaking fluids and
gases, and remain out of the way of
oncoming traffic until emergency
responders arrive.
- When emergency responders arrive, tell
them that the vehicle involved is an
electric vehicle or hybrid-electric vehicle.
Fires
- As with any vehicle, call emergency
assistance immediately if you see sparks,
smoke or flames coming from the vehicle.
Remain a safe distance from the vehicle and
try to stay clear of the smoke.
- Exit the vehicle immediately.
- Advise emergency assistance that an
electric or hybrid-electric vehicle is
involved.
- As with any vehicle fire, do not inhale
smoke, vapors or gas from the vehicle,
as they may be hazardous.
- Stay out of the roadway and stay out of
the way of any oncoming traffic while
awaiting the arrival of emergency
responders.
Post-Incident
- Do not store a severely damaged vehicle
with a lithium-ion battery inside a
structure or within 49 ft (15 m) of any
structure or vehicle.
- Make sure that passenger and luggage
compartments remain ventilated.
- Call emergency assistance if you observe
leaking fluids, sparks, smoke or flames,
or hear gurgling or bubbling from the
high-voltage battery.
WARNING: Batteries normally
produce explosive gases which can cause
personal injury. Therefore, do not allow
flames, sparks or lighted substances to
come near the battery...
The system flashes the direction indicators
and sounds the horn (intermittently) in the
event of a serious impact that deploys an
airbag (front, side, side curtain or Safety
Canopy) or the seatbelt pretensioners...

WARNING: Even with advanced
restraints systems, properly restrain
children 12 and under in a rear seating
position. Failure to follow this could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
WARNING: Sitting improperly, out of
position or with the seatback reclined too
far can take weight off the seat cushion
and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash...
