Information About This Vehicle
Quality Control
You may notice miles/kilometers on the
odometer when you take delivery of your
vehicle. The mileage is a result of the
comprehensive process used to ensure the
quality of your car.
Our quality control process includes extensive
inspections during and after production. The
final inspection takes place at the delivery
center and consists of a road test conducted
by a trained Lucid technician.
Vehicle Modifications
WARNING: Lucid does not
recommend installing non-approved
parts and accessories or performing
non-approved vehicle modifications.
Doing so can negatively affect
your vehicle’s performance and the
safety of its occupants. Non-approved
modifications may lead to invalidation
of your warranty.
WARNING: Lucid is not responsible
for death, injury, or damage that
occurs as the result of using or
installing non-approved parts or
accessories, or making non-approved
modifications.
Note: If you have a disability that requires
modifying the vehicle, contact Lucid before
making any modifications.
Body Repairs
If you damage the vehicle in a collision,
make sure a Lucid-approved Service Center
repairs your car using only genuine Lucid
parts. Contact Lucid Customer Service -
1-888-LUCID.
For more information, see Body Repairs on
page 167.
Electric Vehicle Precautions
WARNING: Your Lucid Air is a 100%
electric vehicle, utilizing high-voltage
AC and DC systems as well as a
12-volt system. The AC and DC high-
voltage systems can cause personal
injury, severe burns, electric shock,
and even death unless you take
appropriate precautions.
You will find the above label affixed to
several high-voltage components found on
your vehicle to alert you to any possible risks.
Always observe and obey the instructions on
labels attached to components on the car;
they are there for your safety.
WARNING: Do not touch or attempt
to remove or replace any high-voltage
(HV) parts, wiring, or connectors. The
orange outer sleeving identifies the
high-voltage wiring and connectors.
WARNING: If the vehicle is involved
in an accident, do not touch any
high-voltage wiring or the components
connected to the wiring.
WARNING: Should a vehicle fire occur,
immediately evacuate the vehicle and
contact your local fire emergency
responders, as they possess the
proper training and equipment to
extinguish electric vehicle fires safely.
WARNING: The vehicle contains a
sealed Li-ion high-voltage battery.
Improperly disposing of the Li-ion
can risk personal injury, severe
burns, electrical shock, death, and
environmental damage.
