The NISSAN PURE DRIVE 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 ve-
hicle runs on a combination of the gasoline
engine and the electric motor, whichever is
best for those conditions.
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 ve-
hicle.WARNING
If you continue to drive the vehicle while
the warning is displayed, the hybrid
system may become temporarily inop-
erative and the system cannot provide
power to the wheels. This can result in
reduced or zero vehicle speed. The re-
duced speed or zero speed may be
lower than other traffic, which could in-
crease 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 shif t
lever in the P (Park) position and the
ignition in the READY to drive position
with the vehicle stopped until the dis-
play turns off. The “Hybrid System Over-
heated Stop Vehicle” warning and the
“Shif t to Park” warning will be alter-
nately displayed. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Vehicle information
display warnings and indicators” in the
“Instruments 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 elec-
trical 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.
∙ Do not use the Li-ion battery for anyother purpose.
The Li-ion battery is used to drive the elec-
tric motors in the NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hy-
brid System.
The Li-ion battery has a limited service life.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for information about recycling or
disposal of the battery.
NISSAN PURE DRIVE® HYBRID
SYSTEM LITHIUM-ION (Li-ion) BATTERY
HEV-2HEV Overview

∙ Inspect the ground under the vehicle.If liquid has leaked onto the ground,
the fuel system may have been dam-
aged. Leave the vehicle as soon as
possible.
∙ Leaks or damage to the Li-ion battery may result in a fire. If you discover
them, contact emergency services
immediately. Since the fluid leak may
be lithium organic electrolyte from
the Li-ion battery, never touch the
fluid leak inside or outside the vehicle.
If the fluid contacts your skin or eyes,
wash it off immediately with a large
amount of water and receive immedi-
ate medical attention to help avoid
serious injury.
∙ If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible.
Only use a type ABC, BC or C fire extin-
guisher that is meant for use on elec-
trical fires. Using water or the incor-
rect fire extinguisher can result in
serious injury or death from electrical
shock. ∙ If you are not able to safely assess the
vehicle due to vehicle damage, do not
touch the vehicle. Leave the vehicle
and contact emergency services. Ad-
vise first responders that this is a hy-
brid vehicle.
∙ In the event of an accident that re- quires body repair and painting, the
vehicle should be delivered to a
NISSAN dealer to have the Li-ion bat-
tery pack and high-voltage parts such
as the inverter, including the wiring
harness, removed prior to painting. Li-
ion battery packs exposed to heat in
the paint booth will experience capac-
ity loss. Damaged Li-ion battery packs
may also pose safety risks to un-
trained mechanics and repair
personnel.The emergency shut-off system is activated
and the high-voltage system automatically
turns off in the following conditions:
∙ Front and side collisions in which the air bags are deployed.
∙ Certain rear collisions.
∙ Certain NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid System malfunctions.
For the above collisions and the certain
hybrid system malfunctions, the READY to
drive indicator light will turn off. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Warning lights,
indicator lights and audible reminders” in
the “Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.
The emergency shut-off activates for the
above collisions to minimize risk of an
event that could cause injury or an acci-
dent. If the emergency shut-off system ac-
tivates, the hybrid system may not switch
to the READY to drive position. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.
Even if the ignition switch is placed in the
READY to drive position, the system may
shut off suddenly. Therefore, drive cau-
tiously to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
contact a NISSAN dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
EMERGENCY SHUT-OFF SYSTEM
HEV-4HEV Overview

To start the NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid
System, depress the brake pedal and place
the ignition switch in the ON position when
the transmission is in the P (Park) position.
CAUTION
Do not start the system in the N (Neu-
tral) position under cold condition of
the system. Start in the P (Park) position
in that case.
The READY to drive indicator light
flashes until the hybrid system is ready to
drive.
If starting in a low temperature environ-
ment, the flashing time of the READY to
drive indicator light
becomes longer.
It cannot move out from the P (Park) range
during flashing.
When the READY to drive indicator
light
illuminates, the vehicle can be
driven, even if the gasoline engine is not
running.
NOTE:
The gasoline engine starts and stops au-
tomatically. It may stop during decelera-
tion or when the vehicle is stopped. The gasoline engine may automatically
run in the following conditions:
∙ The level of remaining charge in the Li- ion battery is low. The engine runs to
charge the Li-ion battery and to provide
power to drive the vehicle.
∙ The temperature of the engine coolant is low.
∙ When the A/C is used.
∙ When opening the door.
∙ When the engine hood is opened.
∙ When applying the brakes.
∙ Based on driving conditions.
∙ The shif t lever is moved to the P (Park) position, the driver’s seat belt is re-
leased and the driver’s side door is then
opened.
The hybrid system operates as follows
based on driving conditions and the Li-ion
battery charge.
The engine is hard to stop during these
driving conditions:
∙ When the A/C is on and outside tem- perature is high/low. ∙ When repeatedly starting and stopping
the engine.
STARTING AND SLOW SPEED
DRIVING
In some cases, the vehicle can be driven by
the electric motor during extremely slow
speed creep, but the engine starts when
accelerating or releasing the brakes.
MEDIUM OR HIGH SPEED DRIVING
The system automatically controls the
gasoline engine and electric motor in order
to obtain the optimum fuel mileage and
performance, depending on the driving
situation and available Li-ion battery
charge.
When the remaining battery level is low, the
Li-ion battery is charged by the electric
motor that is driven to generate electric
power while the vehicle is driving.
RAPID ACCELERATION
The vehicle is accelerated using both the
gasoline engine and the electric motor de-
pending on the available Li-ion battery
charge.

DECELERATION AND BRAKING
The Li-ion battery is charged by the electric
motor that changes the energy of the ro-
tating wheels into electric power. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Regenerative
brake” in this section.
STOPPING
The gasoline engine may stop running to
save fuel depending on the available Li-ion
battery charge.The NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid System
displays the energy flow between the en-
gine, Li-ion battery, and tires on the ad-
vanced drive assist display in the meter.
The status is shown on the assist charge
gauge in the meter and the energy
flow/remaining Li-ion battery charge in the
vehicle information display. System status
can also be shown on the navigation sys-
tem display (if so equipped) and the meter
when the screen is in the energy flow mode
or energy/fuel history mode.
ASSIST CHARGE GAUGE
This meter displays the actual electric mo-
tor 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.

The displayed values on the screen indi-
cate general driving conditions. Accuracy
varies with driving habits and road condi-
tions.∙ Regenerated energy in the past 12 min- utes: The regenerated energy in the
past 12 minutes is indicated with sym-
bols. One symbol indicates a 30 watt-
hour. The energy of a 30 watt-hour illu-
minates a 30 watt bulb for an hour.
∙ Fuel consumption in the past 12 min- utes: Fuel consumption in the past
12 minutes is displayed.
∙ Current fuel consumption (Last col- umn): The current fuel consumption is
calculated and displayed based on dis-
tance and fuel consumption.
NOTE:
Information shown in the yellow column
means current (within 2 minutes) and in-
formation shown in the blue columns
means past (more than 2 minutes). This vehicle is equipped with two braking
systems:
∙ Hydraulic brake system
∙ Regenerative brake system
When the vehicle decelerates while the ve-
hicle is driven with the shif t lever in the D
(Drive) position, 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 fol-
lowing circumstances: ∙ When the accelerator pedal is released
∙ When the brake pedal is depressed
∙ When there is no malfunction in the brake system or the NISSAN PURE
DRIVE® Hybrid 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 sys-
tem controls both hydraulic and regenera-
tive brakes. If you feel unusual deceleration
when braking, have the brake and hybrid
systems checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
