No. Component Location Description Traction Motor Inverter
Engine compartment
(rear passengerside)Converts the DC power stored in the Li-ion
battery to three-phase AC power and controls
motor torque (revolution) by regulating the
motor current. The inverter has a built in high
voltage capacitor.
Traction Motor Built-into the
transmission Converts three-phase alternating current (AC)
power to drive power (torque) which propels
the vehicle.
Lithium-ion (Li-ion)Battery
Trunk area
(behind rear seatback) The Li-ion battery stores and outputs DC
power (Maximum voltage 400V) needed to
propel the vehicle.
DC/DC Converter Trunk area (mounted to top of
Li-ion battery) The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of
the Li-ion battery to provide power to the 12V
battery in order to operate the vehicle’s electric
components (headlights, audio system, etc.) .
Service Plug Trunk area
(below parcel shelf;
behind access door
in trim panel) This is used to disable the high voltage system.
12V Battery Trunk area (left side
behind trim panel) A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the
low voltage devices.
High VoltageHarnesses Trunk area
(on Li-ion battery) ,
under floor pan,
engine compartment Orange-colored power cables carry high DC
voltage between each of the high voltagecomponents.

3-2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Insulated Tools
3-2.1 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Protective Wear Control
Perform an inspection of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) items before beginning work. Do not use
any damaged PPE items.
3-2.2 Daily Inspection
This inspection is performed before and after use. The worker who will be using the items should perform
the inspection and check for deterioration and damage.• Insulated rubber gloves should be inspected for scratches, holes and tears. (Visual check and airleakage test)
• Insulated safety boots should be inspected for holes, damage, nails, metal pieces, wear or other problems on the soles. (Visual check)
• Insulated rubber sheet should be inspected for tears. (Visual check)
3-2.3 Insulated Tools
When performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
3-2.4 Discharge Procedures
Do not perform this procedure if the high voltage battery is damaged. If you are unsure of
battery damage, use extreme caution and always wear appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) when working on high voltage components.
Li-ion battery discharging must take place before dismantling. Sufficient discharging can be achieved by
following these steps. 1. Place the shift selector into the Park (P) position
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Set wheel chocks to ensure the vehicle is completely immobilized.
4. Fasten the driver seat belt and close the driver door.
5. Apply foot brake and press the ignition switch to turn the system ON. Confirm READY
indicator in instrument cluster turns ON.a. If the engine starts, leave the engine on until the idling stops.
b. If the engine does NOT start, move on to next step.

SRS Air Bag System Components Location
The SRS air bag system must not be cut as there is a risk of short circuit and unintentional deployment of
the SRS However, the vehicle can be cut (except inflators) under the following conditions:• The front, side and curtain air bags have deployed.
• At least three (3) minutes have passed after the 12V battery negative (-) cable has beendisconnected and the high voltage system has been shut down.
1. Crash zone sensor (located
underhood near hood latch) 2. Supplemental front air bag
modules (Infiniti Advanced
Air Bags)3. Front seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bags
4. Roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air bags 5. Roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air baginflators6. C-pillar satellite sensors
(LH shown, RH similar)
7. Seat belt buckle pretensioners 8. Seat belts with pretensioners 9. B-pillar satellite sensors
10. Air bag control unit (ACU) 11. Front door satellite sensors (LH shown, RH similar)

32. Remove the mounting bolts (A) of bracket (RH) onvehicle side.
Touching high voltage components without wearing
appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will
cause electrocution.
33. Place a piece of plywood (A) in the trunk room as shown in the figure. Lift the battery pack in the direction (1) shown by arrow and slide (2) the cardboard (B) to location (C) to position it under
the battery pack.
Touching high voltage components without wearing appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) will cause electrocution.
34. Pull out battery pack (1) together with the cardboard (A) in the rear of vehicle.
Touching high voltage components without wearing
appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will
cause electrocution.
Battery pack is in unstable condition. Never allow it to fall.
