2014 INFINITI Q70 HYBRID fuel type

WARNING
In case of a collision:
.If your vehicle is drivable, pull your
vehicle off the road, put the transmis-
sion in the P (Park) position, apply the
parking brake and turn the INFINITI
Direct Response Hybrid
®System off.
. Check to see if there are exposed high
voltage parts and cables. Never touch
the parts and cables. For their locations,
see “High voltage components” (P.Hy-
brid System-10). To avoid personal in-
jury, never touch high-voltage wiring,
connectors, and other high-voltage
parts, such as electric motor inverter
and Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery. An
electric shock may occur if exposed
electric wires are visible when viewed
from inside or outside of your vehicle.
Therefore, never touch exposed electric
wires.
. If the vehicle receives a strong impact to
the floor while driving, stop the vehicle
in a safe location and check the floor.
. Inspect the ground under the vehicle. If
liquid has leaked onto the ground, the fuel system may have been damaged.
Leave the vehicle as soon as possible.
. Leaks or damage to the Li-ion battery
may result in a fire. If you discover them,
contact emergency services immedi-
ately. Since the fluid leak may be lithium
organic electrolyte from the Li-ion bat-
tery, never touch the fluid leak inside or
outside the vehicle. If the fluid contacts
your skin or eyes, wash it off immedi-
ately with a large amount of water and
receive immediate medical attention to
help avoid serious injury.
. If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle,
leave the vehicle as soon as possible.
Only use a type ABC, BC or C fire
extinguisher that is meant for use on
electrical fires. Using water or the
incorrect fire extinguisher can result in
serious injury or death from electrical
shock.
. If you are not able to safely assess the
vehicle due to vehicle damage, do not
touch the vehicle. Leave the vehicle and
contact emergency services. Advise 1st
responders that this is a hybrid vehicle.
. In the event of an accident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle should be delivered to an INFINITI
retailer to have the Li-ion battery pack
and high voltage parts such as the
inverter, including the wiring harness,
removed prior to painting. Li-ion battery
packs exposed to heat in the paint booth
will experience capacity loss. Damaged
Li-ion battery packs may also pose
safety risks to untrained mechanics
and repair personnel.

The above examples of the acceleration
guide means the following conditions.
1. The vehicle is being driven economic-ally when the vehicle is driven with the
accelerator pedal position in the econ-
omy range.
2. The vehicle is being driven less eco- nomically when the vehicle is driven
with the accelerator pedal position in
the power range.
This will not be displayed when Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system is operating.
3. EV mode odometer and twin trip

EV mode odometer:
This indicates the total distance traveled
using the electric motor only.
EV mode twin trip odometer:
This indicates the distance traveled in an
individual trip using the electric motor
only.
2 types of individual trip can be recorded,
TRIP A and TRIP B.
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch will toggle
between TRIP A and TRIP B.
To reset the display to 0, hold down the

Releasing inside the trunk
To open the trunk lid from the inside, pull
the release handle

releases and push up on the trunk lid.
The release lever is made of a material that
glows in the dark after a brief exposure to
ambient light.
The handle is located on the back of the
trunk lid as illustrated.

filler door by using one of the following
operations, then push the upper left side
of the door.
. Push the door handle request switch
with the Intelligent Key carried with
you.
. Push the UNLOCK button on the Intelli-
gent Key.
. Insert the mechanical key into the door
lock cylinder and turn it to the rear of
the vehicle. .
Push the power door lock switch to the
UNLOCK position.
To lock, close the fuel-filler door securely
and lock all doors by operating the door
handle request switch, the LOCK button on
the Intelligent Key, the mechanical key or
the power door lock switch.
FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
. Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled.
Always stop the INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
®System and do not smoke or
allow open flames or sparks near the
vehicle when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
. Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-

6. Put trunk floor cover*1against in the
trunk room and store the damaged tire.
7. Close the trunk.
WARNING
. Always make sure that the spare tire and
jacking equipment are properly secured
after use. Such items can become
dangerous projectiles in an accident or
sudden stop.
. The T-type spare tire and small size
spare tire are designed for emergency
use. See specific instructions under the heading
“Wheels and tires” (P.8-32).
Before attempting to jump start the vehi-
cle, make sure the fuel tank is not empty
and the correct starting procedure is
followed. See“Starting the INFINITI Direct
Response Hybrid
®System” (P.5-12). Do
not drive the vehicle on battery power only
if the fuel tank is empty. The Lithium ion
(Li-ion) battery will become discharged and
the INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid
®Sys-
tem will turn off.
CONFIRM BATTERY IS DISCHARGED
If any of the following conditions occurs,
the 12-volt battery might discharged:
. The instrument cluster and/or head-
lights are not normal brightness.
. Audio accessories cannot be turned on.
. The hybrid system does not become
READY to drive mode.
. The ignition switch cannot be placed in
the ON position.
Check the following if you notice above
conditions.
1. Check that the 12-volt battery terminals are tight and clean. See “12-volt
battery” (P.8-18). The battery is located
on the left hand side of the trunk
behind an access panel. If the 12-volt
battery terminals are loose, contact

IF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START

9-6Technical and consumer information
above symptoms are encountered, have
your vehicle checked at an INFINITI retailer
or other competent service facility.
However, now and then you may notice
light spark knock for a short time while
accelerating or driving up hills. This is no
cause for concern, because you get the
greatest fuel benefit when there is light
spark knock for a short time under heavy
engine load.

ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER RE-
COMMENDATION
Selecting the correct oil
It is essential to choose the correct grade,
quality, and viscosity engine oil to ensure
satisfactory engine life and performance,
see“Capacities and recommended fuel/
lubricants” (P.9-2). INFINITI recommends
the use of an energy conserving oil in
order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certifi-
cation or International Lubricant Standar-
dization and Approval Committee (ILSAC)
certification and SAE viscosity standard.
These oils have the API certification mark
on the front of the container. Oils which do
not have the specified quality label should
not be used as they could cause engine
damage.
Oil additives
INFINITI does not recommend the use of oil
additives. The use of an oil additive is not
necessary when the proper oil type is used
and maintenance intervals are followed.

If you plan to travel in another country,
you should first find out if the fuel
available is suitable for your vehicle’ s
engine.
Using fuel with too low an octane rating
may cause engine damage. All gasoline
vehicles must be operated with unleaded
gasoline. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is
not available.
When transferring the registration of your
vehicle to another country, state, province
or district, it may be necessary to modify
the vehicle to meet local laws and regula-
tions.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle
emission control and safety standards vary
according to the country, state, province or
district; therefore, vehicle specifications
may differ.
When any vehicle is to be taken into
another country, state, province or district
and registered, its modifications, trans-
portation, and registration are the respon-
sibility of the user. INFINITI is not
responsible for any inconvenience that
may result.
