2. Basic High-voltage System and 12-volt System Information
2-1
Battery Information
The Murano HYBRID utilizes two batteries in order to supply both high and low voltage.
2-1.1 12-Volt Battery • The Murano HYBRID contains a conventional lead-acid12-volt battery.
• The 12-volt battery is located in the front of the vehicle on the left side of the engine compartment.
• The 12-volt battery is charged by the high-voltage battery through the DC/DC converter. : Vehicle front
2-1.2
High-voltage Battery
• The Murano HYBRID contains a high-voltage battery.
• The high-voltage battery is mounted under the center console and enclosed in a metal case.
• The high-voltage battery stores approximately 144 volts DC.
• A vent hose is provided to exhaust gasses outside the vehicle, if necessary.
• Air for battery cooling is drawn in from the front of the center console, under the instrument panel, and is vented
into the RH side B-pillar with the use of a fan located under
the passenger seat.
The high-voltage battery supplies power to the following: • High-voltage harnesses
• DC/DC converter
• Traction motor inverter
• Traction motor AAYIA0465ZZ

LocationDescription
DC/DC
Converter Inside the centerconsole area
(mounted right of
high-voltage battery) The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of
the high-voltage battery to provide power to
the 12-volt battery in order to operate the
vehicle’s electric components (headlights,
audio system, etc.) .
Service Plug Center console
(inside storage bin
under access door) This is used to disable the high-voltage system.
High-voltage
Battery
Inside the center
console area
(between the front
driver’s and
passenger’s seats)The high-voltage battery stores and outputs
DC power (Maximum voltage 144V) needed to
propel the vehicle.
Traction Motor
Engine compartment
(built-into the
transmission)Converts three-phase alternating current (AC)
power to drive power (torque) which propels
the vehicle.
Traction Motor
Inverter
Engine compartment
(front driver side)Converts the DC power stored in the high-
voltage 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.
12-volt Battery
Front of the vehicle
on the left side of the
engine compartment.A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the
low voltage devices.
High-voltage
Harness Center console area
(on high-voltage
battery) , under floor,
engine compartment Orange-colored power cables carry high DC
voltage between each of the high-voltage
components.

2-4 High-voltage Safety Measures
Circuit insulation
The high-voltage positive (+) and negative (-) circuits are insulated
from the metal chassis.
Reducing the risk of electrocution The high-voltage components and harnesses have insulated cases or orange-colored coverings which provide insulation and easy
identification.
The high-voltage battery case is electrically connected to the vehicle
ground. This connection helps protect the vehicle occupants and
emergency responders from high-voltage electrical shock.
Identification The high-voltage components are labeled “WARNING” similar to label
shown below. All high-voltage harnesses are coated in orange.
2-4.1 Warning Labels
The following warning label is applied to the high-voltage inverter located in the engine compartment.

3. Roadside Assistance Response Steps
• NEVER assume the Murano HYBRID is shut OFF simply because it is quiet.
• If the vehicle is damaged and you are not sure about the condition of the electric
vehicle system, contact first responders immediately. If the vehicle is damaged, the
high-voltage system should be shut down by first responders while following the
procedures in the First Responder’s Guide and while wearing appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) .
• If the READY indicator or charging indicator are ON, the high-voltage system is
active.
• If possible, be sure to verify that the READY indicator on the instrument cluster
is

OFF and the high-voltage system is stopped.
• Some of the under hood parts get hot and may cause serious burns. Use caution when working on or around these parts.
