2016 NISSAN MURANO HYBRID Owners Manual

HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS
AND THEIR LOCATIONS
WARNING
●The NISSAN PURE DRIVE Hybrid Sys-
tem uses high voltage up to approxi-
mately 144 volts. The system can be hot
during and after starting. Be careful of
both the high voltage and the high tem-
perature. Obey the warning labels at-
tached to the vehicle.
● Never touch, disassemble, remove or
replace the high-voltage parts, har-
nesses and their connectors. High-
voltage harnesses are orange. Touch-
ing, disassembling, removing or
replacing those parts and harnesses
can cause severe burns or electric
shock that may result in serious injury
or death.
● Do not change or modify the center con-
sole where the Li-ion battery is located.
For example, do not drill the center con-
sole. Modifying the center console may
cause a short circuit and damage the
Li-ion battery.

The hybrid system uses high voltage up to ap-
proximately 144 volts. High-voltage components
are indicated in the illustration. High-voltage har-
nesses are orange. The system can be hot during
and after starting. Be careful of both the high
voltage and the high temperature.
HYBRID VEHICLE
CHARACTERISTICS
WARNING
●When you leave your vehicle, be sure to
place the ignition switch in the OFF
position. ●
Be sure to put the transmission in the P
(Park) position because the vehicle can
move when the READY to drive indica-
tor light is on even if the gasoline en-
gine is not running. When the READY to
drive indicator light is on, do not leave
your vehicle in a shift position other
than the P (Park) position. The vehicle
will creep and start abruptly if the accel-
erator pedal is depressed by mistake.
This may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is parked for a long period of
time, the battery discharges gradually. To
avoid this occurrence, drive the vehicle for
approximately 30 minutes at least once
every two to three months. Otherwise, the
Li-ion battery may be damaged. If the Li-
ion battery is completely discharged and
the hybrid system cannot be activated, it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer.
High-voltage parts and harnesses on the hybrid
vehicles emit approximately the same amount of
electromagnetic waves as the conventional
gasoline-powered vehicles or home electronic
appliances despite their electromagnetic shield-
ings. Charging the Li-ion battery while driving is impor-
tant. The vehicle cannot run if the Li-ion battery is
discharged. In the N (Neutral) position, the Li-ion
battery does not recharge. Leaving the transmis-
sion in the N (Neutral) position for an extended
period of time may discharge the Li-ion battery.
The Li-ion battery recharges when the shift lever
is in any position other than N (Neutral) .
CAUTION
●
Do not place large amounts of water in
open containers (aquariums or buckets)
on the front passenger’s side floor. If
the water spills onto the Li-ion battery
cooling fan, it may cause a short circuit
and damage the Li-ion battery cooling
fan.
● Do not spill water onto the center con-
sole or around the area. It may cause a
short circuit and damage the Li-ion
battery.

Noise and vibration
After the hybrid system is activated, the following
noises and vibrations that are unique to the hy-
brid system may occur. The following situations
do not indicate a malfunction:● Electric motor noise from the engine com-
partment
● Noise from the rear of the vehicle when the
hybrid system activates or deactivates
● Noise and vibration when the gasoline en-
gine starts running or stops
● Operating noise or electric motor noise
when releasing the accelerator pedal or de-
pressing the brake pedal
● Engine noise due to rapid acceleration
● Fan noise from the air inlet located on the
rear parcel shelf
● Noise from the climate control system
