2015 INFINITI QX60 HYBRID display

The “Instruments and controls” section of the
Model Year 2015 QX60 HEV Owner’s Manual
describes the engine coolant temperature gauge
feature. This feature is shown in error. This is not
an available feature of the Model Year 2015
QX60 HEV. The Owner’s Manual references to
the engine coolant temperature gauge should be
disregarded wherever they appear. INFINITI
apologizes for any confusion this inadvertent
printing error may have caused.WARNING
●Do not continue to drive if your vehicle
overheats. Doing so could cause engine
damage or a vehicle fire.
●To avoid the danger of being scalded,
never remove the radiator or coolant
reservoir cap while the engine is still
hot. When the radiator or coolant reser-
voir cap is removed, pressurized hot
water will spurt out, possibly causing
serious injury.
●Do not open the hood if steam is com-
ing out.
If your vehicle is overheating (indicated by the
“High Coolant Temp: See Owner’s Manual” ve-
hicle information display (VID) warning) , or if you
feel a lack of engine power, detect abnormal
noise, etc. take the following steps.
1. Move the vehicle safely off the road, apply
the parking brake and move the shift lever to
P (Park) .
Do not turn the INFINITI Direct Re-
sponse Hybrid® System off.
2. Turn off the air conditioner. Open all the
windows, move the heater or air conditioner
temperature control to maximum hot and fan
control to high speed.3. Get out of the vehicle. Look and listen for
steam or coolant escaping from the radiator
before opening the hood. (If steam or cool-
ant is escaping, turn off the engine.) Do not
open the hood further until no steam or
coolant can be seen.
4. Open the engine hood.
WARNING
If steam or water is coming from the en-
gine, stand clear to prevent getting
burned.
5. Also check if the cooling fan is running. The
radiator hoses and radiator should not leak
water. If the coolant is leaking or the cooling
fan does not run, stop the hybrid system.
6. Visually check drive belts for damage or
looseness. Also check if the cooling fan is
running. The radiator hoses and radiator
should not leak water. If coolant is leaking,
the water pump belt is missing or loose, or
the cooling fan does not run, stop the en-
gine.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGEIF YOUR VEHICLE OVERHEATS

The INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid® System
combines the power of a gasoline engine and an
electric motor to help minimize fuel consumption
and emissions.
Depending on driving conditions, the vehicle runs
on a combination of the gasoline engine and the
electric motor, whichever is best for those condi-
tions.
Because the gasoline engine charges the
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery as needed, the battery
does not have to be charged from an outside
source like an all-electric vehicle.WARNING
If you continue to drive the vehicle while
the warning is displayed, the hybrid sys-
tem may become temporarily inoperative
and the system can not provide power to
the wheels. This can result in reduced or
zero vehicle speed. The reduced speed or
zero speed may be lower than other traf-
fic, which could increase the chance of a
collision. If the vehicle cannot maintain a
safe driving speed, pull to the side of the
road in a safe area. If this occurs, place the
shift lever in the “P” position, ignition in
the READY position with the vehicle
stopped until the display turns off. The
Hybrid system overheat warning and the
SHIFT “P” warning messages will be alter-
nately displayed. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Shift to Park” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this
manual.
WARNING
Your vehicle contains a sealed Lithium ion
(Li-ion) high-voltage battery. If the Li-ion
battery is disposed of improperly, there is
a risk of severe burns and electrical shock
that may result in serious injury or death
and there is also a risk of environmental
damage.
CAUTION
Do not misuse the Li-ion battery (to use
the Li-ion battery for completely another
purpose) .
The Li-ion battery is used to drive the electric
motors in the INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid®
System.
The Li-ion battery has a limited service life. Con-
tact your INFINITI retailer for information about
recycling or disposal of the battery.
INFINITI DIRECT RESPONSE
HYBRID® SYSTEM LITHIUM-ION (Li-ion) BATTERY
HEV-2HEV Overview

The INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid® System
monitors the status of power being sent to the
electric motor and the Li-ion battery state of
charge. The status is shown on the assist charge
gauge in the meter and the energy
flow/remaining Li-ion battery charge in the ve-
hicle information display and the meter. System
status can also be shown on the navigation sys-
tem display (if so equipped) when the screen is in
the energy flow mode or energy/fuel history
mode.
ASSIST CHARGE GAUGE
This meter displays the actual electric motor
power consumption and the charging power to
the Li-ion battery.
For additional information, refer to “Assist charge
gauge” in the “Instruments and controls” section
of this manual.
ENERGY FLOW (models with
navigation system)
When you use this system, make sure the hybrid
system is in the READY to drive mode. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Operation of the hy-
brid system” in this section.If you use the system with the hybrid sys-
tem 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 monitor for various operating modes can
be displayed on the navigation system monitor
and the meter.
Push the INFO button on the control panel and
highlight the “Energy Flow” key on the display
using the INFINITI controller then push the EN-
TER button.

ENERGY MONITORS
HEV-6HEV Overview

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 bat-
tery.
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 bat-
tery with the regenerative brake and gaso-
line engine.
● When the vehicle is powered by the gaso-
line 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 vehicle infor-
mation display. For additional information, refer to
“Trip computer” in the “Instruments and controls”
section of this manual.FUEL ECONOMY (models with

HEV OverviewHEV-9

This vehicle is equipped with two braking sys-
tems.● Hydraulic brake system
● Regenerative brake system
When the vehicle decelerates while the vehicle is
driven with the shift lever in the D (drive) position
or in the manual shift mode, the Li-ion battery can
be charged by the electric motor. The electric
motor converts the energy of the rotating wheels
into electric power under the following circum-
stances: ● When the accelerator pedal is released
● When the brake pedal is depressed
● When there is no malfunction in the brake
system or the INFINITI Direct Response Hy-
brid® System
The regenerative brake may not work properly if
the vehicle is installed with tires and road wheels
other than the ones specified in this manual.
While the regenerative cooperative brake system
is operating, you might feel a slight vibration or
hear the system working when braking. This is
normal. The regenerative cooperative brake system con-
trols both hydraulic and regenerative brakes. If
you feel unusual deceleration when braking, have
an INFINITI retailer check both the brake and
hybrid systems.
Drive your vehicle with smooth accelera-
tion and deceleration.
● While driving, energy is recovered through
the regenerative brake as the vehicle decel-
erates. However, for most efficient use, do
not accelerate or decelerate your vehicle
more than necessary.
● Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration.
● The power of the Li-ion battery can be
checked on the Energy Flow in the center
display (models with navigation system) or
Li-ion battery status meter in the vehicle
information display. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Energy Flow (models with navi-
gation system)” or “Trip computer” in the
“Instruments and controls” section of this
manual. Gradual or non-abrupt acceleration
and deceleration will make more effective
use of the electric power.
● When parking, be sure to place the shift
lever in the P (Park) position. While driving,
place the shift lever in the D (Drive) position.
