1. DC/DC Converter
2. Service Plug
3. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) Battery
4. High-Voltage Harness
5. 12–volt Battery
6. Traction Motor Inverter
7. Traction Motor
The hybrid system uses high voltage up to ap-
proximately 168 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 gradu-
ally. To avoid this occurrence, drive the
vehicle for approximately 30 minutes at
least once every two to three months.
Otherwise, the Lithium ion (Li-ion) bat-
tery may be damaged. If the Li-ion bat-
tery is completely discharged and the
hybrid system cannot be activated, it is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer.
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) .

WARNING
●Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and receive
neck or other serious injuries. You
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries. ●
For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back and
upright in the seat with both feet on the
floor and adjust the seat properly. For
additional information, refer to “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” in this
section.
● After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked. ●
Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls or make the
vehicle move. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents.
● To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
● Do not adjust the driver’s seat while
driving so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation. The seat may move
suddenly and could cause loss of con-
trol of the vehicle.
● The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort. Seat
belts are most effective when the pas-
senger sits well back and straight up in
the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.

The recline feature allows adjustment of the seat-
back for occupants of different sizes for added
comfort and to help obtain proper seat belt fit. For
additional information, refer to “Precautions on
seat belt usage” in this section. Also, the seat-
back can be reclined to allow occupants to rest
when the vehicle is stopped and the shift lever is
in P (Park) .

to make sure it is securely locked.
● Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and receive

● For the most effective protection when

be upright. Always sit well back and
upright in the seat and adjust the seat
belt properly. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Precautions on seat belt
usage” in this section.
One touch walk-in function
The 3rd row can be accessed from outside the
vehicle by using the seatback release lever lo-
cated on the upper outboard side of the seatback
on the 2nd row bench seat. If a child safety seat is
installed on the passenger’s side of the 2nd row
seat, the 3rd row can be accessed without re-
moving the child safety seat. Multi-mode
WARNING
When returning the seat to its original
position, confirm that the seat and seat-
back are locked properly.
CAUTION
●
Be careful not to pinch your hand or foot
or bump your head when operating the
walk-in seat.
● Do not drive with the 2nd row seat
tipped up.
● Be careful not to allow the 2nd row seat
to pinch, hit any part of your body or
other people when operating the 2nd
row seat. Make sure the seat path is
clear of all objects before moving the
seat.
To enter the 3rd row from outside the vehicle, lift
up on the seatback lever located on the upper
outboard side of the seatback on the 2nd row
bench seat. This will release the back of the seat
and fold up the seat cushion. This will also re-
lease the seat tracks so you will be able to slide
the seat forward or backward.
Slide the entire seat forward for access to the 3rd
row.
