Door Handles, Branding, and Badging
Lucid Air can be identified by its badges.
NOTE: Lucid Air vehicles are a dual motor configuration, with one motor on each set of drive wheels.
NOTE: Lucid Motors vehicles are fully electric vehicles.
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
Lucid Air can be identified by its VIN. The stamped plate may be located by looking through the driver’s side of the windshield or on
the left-hand A-pillar with the door open. Lucid Air is identified with an “A” in the 4th alphanumeric position.
1. Identification / recognition
WARNING Lack of engine sounds does not mean the vehicle is off. Silent movement or instant restart
capabilities exist until vehicle is fully shut down. Wear appropriate PPE.

Touchscreen
Lucid Air can also be identified by a retractable touch screen located where the dash meets the center console. If the display is in the
stowed position, a storage cubby will be visible in its place. Lucid Air also has a wide screen instrument cluster display which is
divided into three sections.
If the vehicle airbags have deployed, touchscreens may not be accessible due to interuption of low voltage power. External low
voltage power should not be applied after an accident due to the possiblity of a low voltage electrical fire. If low-voltage power is
present, the touch screen may be lowered from the stowed position by touching the arrow icon on the center lower edge of the
display.
Rear Touchscreen
Lucid Air also has a rear touch screen on the aft portion of the center console facing the rear seats.

2. Immobilization / stabilization / lifting
Immobilization
Chock Wheels
Lucid Air moves silently, so never assume it is powered off. Lucid Air could potentially be free to roll if the parking brake is not
engaged. Always chock the wheels.
Putting the Vehicle in Park
Lucid Air moves silently, so never assume it is powered off. Pressing the accelerator pedal while the Lucid Air is in Drive or Reverse
may result in extremely rapid acceleration. Press the button located on the end of the Drive mode selector stalk, which is located on
the right side of the steering column. Once in Park, a “P” will be indicated along the lower edge of the center gauge cluster, and the
electronic parking brake should engage to immobilize the rear wheels.

STABILIZATION / LIFTING POINTS
WARNING Be careful to not damage the high-voltage battery pack while stabilizing the vehicle.
WARNING The vehicle should only be lifted or manipulated if the first responders are trained and equipped at the
technician level per the applicable country’s national fire training requirements and are familiar with the vehicle’s
lifting points. Use caution to ensure you avoid contact with the high-voltage battery or other high-voltage
components while lifting or manipulating the vehicle.
WARNING Do not use the high-voltage battery pack to lift or stabilize the vehicle.
The high-voltage battery is located under the floor of the car. When lifting or stabilizing the Lucid Air, use only the designated lift
areas, shown below

Access
The hood may be opened via:
•Touch Screen
•Key Fob
•Mobile App
•Manual Emergency Release cables
Instructions for the use of these methods may be found in Section 4.
1. Open the hood. (See Chapter 4: Access to the Occupants).
2. Remove the access panel by pulling it upwards to release the clips that hold it in place.
Primary Disable Method
To isolate the high-voltage system, unplug the first responder loop.
Alernate/Emergency method: In an emergency scenario where time and/or access do not allow for plug disconnection, complete
one cut on each side of the first responder loop label
WARNING Not every High-Voltage component is labeled. Always wear appropriate PPE. Always double cut
the First Responder Loop. Do not attempt to open the High-Voltage Battery.
3. Disable direct hazards / safety regulations

First Responder Loop
Unplugging/Cutting the first responder loop removes low-voltage power going to the high-voltage contactors inside of the high-
voltage battery pack. Disconnecting the first responder loop does not disable the low-voltage battery system. Lucid Air is equipped
with two low-voltage batteries for redundancy. One is located directly under the rear seat cushion and the other is inside the trunk
under the right side access panel. Both low-voltage battery negative cables (2) should be disconnected or cut. If time and/or access
do not allow for removal, then cut both negative cables. Both must be disconnected or cut in order to disable the low-voltage
battery system, which powers the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) control unit.
NOTE: Once the low-voltage battery negative cables have been cut, power accessories will no longer operate. This includes items,
such as exterior door handles, windows, seats, and the steering column. It will also not be possible to disable the Electronic Parking
Brake System.
1. First Responder Cut Loop
2. Low Voltage Battery (qty 2)
The first responder cut loop is located under the hood on the left-hand side near the suspension strut tower and is concealed by the
cowl cover. To remove the cover, grasp the rear edge and pull up.

Even if the first responder loop has been cut, always treat the high-voltage pack and the high-voltage components as if they are live.
The pack will still have stored energy within the cells, and it is not known if other high-voltage components have been damaged.
Treat every battery pack and orange cable as if there is high voltage in them. Never cut an orange high-voltage cable or cut into the
battery pack.
There is no way to instantaneously discharge the energy inside of the battery pack when a vehicle is in an accident. There is stored
energy in the high-voltage battery cells. Caution must be used to not damage the battery pack, in the case of vehicle extrication
operations.
Vehicle Charging
In the case of an emergency incident while charging that involves collision, electrical failure, or fire, additional steps should be taken
to isolate the charging station. If the charging station is equipped with an e-stop, it should be applied. If an e-stop is not present or
accessible, property management should be accessed to locate the main service disconnect and lockout/tagout breaker. After it has
been located, immediately disconnect the EVSE handle at the vehicle by pressing the release button on the charging cable handle. If
you are unable to disconnect via the handle button, the manual release can be actuated by opening the hood and pulling the manual
release lever while unplugging the cable.
WARNING Do not cut the high-voltage charging cable. If the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) is
unable to be disconnected from the vehicle, ensure that the EVSE is de-energized before proceeding. Refer
to the EVSE manufacturer’s instructions or Local Power Utility Agency. Cutting an energized cable may lead
to serious injury or death.
