4-3.2 Towing Guidelines
Infiniti strongly recommends that Q70 HYBRID be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or
that a dolly be used as illustrated.
• Never tow with the rear wheels on the ground or four (4) wheels on the ground (forwardor backward) , as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the motor.
• Never tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the powertrain.
• Transport the vehicle only after turning the ignition switch OFF.
• Safety chains or cables must be attached only to the main structural members of the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
• Do not use the vehicle tie down hook to free a vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.
• Never tow a vehicle using the vehicle tie down hook.
• Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehicle. Never pull on the vehicle at an angle.
• Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake, high-voltage or cooling systems.
• Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.
Perform vehicle towing by holding up drive (rear) wheels or on flatbed in order to prevent secondary
damage from voltage generated by the motor. In addition, turn the ignition switch OFF when towing the
vehicle. Refer to the following illustration:
NOTE:
It is also permissible to transport the Q70 facing rearward on a flatbed. If the vehicle cannot be
placed in Neutral, a P (Park) release procedure may be required. Refer to

5-2 Remove Service Plug
DANGER
•Do not remove the service plug without always wearing appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) to help protect the responder from serious injury or death
by electrical shock.
•
Immediately cover the service plug socket with insulated tape. The high-voltage
battery retains high-voltage power even when the service plug is removed. To avoid
electric shock, NEVER touch the terminals inside the socket.
To avoid unintended reinstallation and risk of electrical shock and severe personal injury
or death, the service plug should be securely stored away from the vehicle while the vehicle
is in storage.
NOTE: Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery terminal, if necessary, lower the windows, adjust
the steering column, adjust the seats, unlock the doors, etc. Once 12-volt battery is
disconnected, power controls will not operate.
1. Check the READY indicator (A) status in the instrument cluster. If it is on, the high voltage systemis active.
2. Place the shift selector in the Park (P) position.
3. Push the ignition switch (B) once to turn OFF the high voltage system. Then verify whether the READY indicator (A) is off.
If the READY indicator (A) does not turn off, continue to step 5 to open the trunk for 12-volt
battery negative cable access.
