In the case of thermal runaway, the technician should:
Isolate the vehicle at least 50 feet away from flammable or combustible materials.
Thermal runaway can cause significant safety risks, including fire and explosions, so it's crucial to ensure the area is safe and to prevent potential ignition of surrounding materials. After isolating the vehicle, it's essential to follow appropriate emergency response protocols, including notifying the relevant authorities or emergency services if necessary.
