Hybrid Awareness
Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your \
vehicle while it is ON, but the
engine is not running, the engine will automatically start, informing yo\
u that the car
is still ON.
Do not store your INFINITI Intelligent k ey within detection range of the vehicle. This may
cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating unwanted \
battery drain.
The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Ac\
tivation of the
electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full \
battery display does
not indicate the vehicle should be in the electric mode.
For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview” section of your Owner’s Manual.
