2013 INFINITI M HYBRID key battery

Hybrid System-6Hybrid System Overview
If you use the system with the hybrid
system off (ignition switch placed in the
ACC position) for a long time, it will
discharge the 12-volt battery power, and
the hybrid system will not start.
Energy Flow for various operating modes
can be displayed on the navigation system
monitor.

Push the INFO button on the control panel
and highlight the“Energy Flow”key on the
display using the INFINITI controller then
push the ENTER button.

This is an example of the Energy Flow
display. The Energy Flow display changes,
depending on the following operating
conditions. The graphic indicates the
amount of power in the Li-ion battery.
The following are displayed on the Energy
Flow screen.
. When the vehicle is powered only by
the electric motor or gasoline engine.
. When the vehicle is powered by both
the electric motor and the gasoline
engine.
. When the vehicle is charging the Li-ion
battery with the regenerative brake and
gasoline engine.

.When the vehicle is charging the Li-ion
battery with the regenerative brake and
gasoline engine.
. When the vehicle is powered by the
gasoline engine and is charging the Li-
ion battery.
. When there is no Energy Flow in the
vehicle
The Energy Flow and remaining Li-ion
battery charge can be also shown on the
dot matrix display. See “Trip computer”in
the “2. Instruments and controls” section.
FUEL ECONOMY HISTORY (models
with navigation system)
The Fuel Economy History screen appears
in the display with the navigation system
when the screen is in the Fuel Economy
History mode.

The Fuel Economy History can be displayed
on the navigation system monitor. This
displays the vehicle’s average fuel con-
sumption and regenerative electric power
at 2 minute intervals.
The displayed values on the screen in-
dicate general driving conditions. Accuracy
varies with driving habits and road condi-
tions.
1. Regenerated energy in the past 12 minutes: The regenerated energy in
the past 12 minutes is indicated with
symbols. One symbol indicates 30
watt-hour. The energy of 30 watt-hour
illuminates a 30 watt bulb for an hour.
