In Brief 1-5 Battery This vehicle has a standard 12-volt battery and a high voltage hybrid battery. When a new standard 12-volt battery is needed, see your dealer for one that has the replacement number shown on the original battery's label. Only a trained service technician with the proper knowledge and tools should inspect, test, or replace the hybrid battery. See your dealer if the hybrid battery needs service. See Battery on page 10‑11. Service Never try to do your own service on hybrid components. You can be injured and the vehicle can be damaged if you try to do your own service work. Service and repair of these hybrid components should only be performed by a trained service technician with the proper knowledge and tools. See Doing Your Own Service Work on page 10‑2. Performance and Maintenance Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit This vehicle has a tire sealant and compressor kit that can be used to seal small punctures in the tread area of the tire.
