NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE PROGRAM

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

WARNING
∙ The NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid Sys-tem uses high voltage up to approxi-
mately 235 volts. The system can be
hot while and af ter starting. Be care-
ful of both the high voltage and the
high temperature. Obey the warning
labels attached to the vehicle.
∙ Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts, harnesses
and their connectors. High-voltage
harnesses are orange. Touching, dis-
assembling, removing or replacing
those parts and harnesses can cause
severe burns or electric shock that
may result in serious injury or death.
The vehicle high-voltage system has
no user serviceable parts. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for any necessary maintenance. ∙ Never try to remove the service plug
located in the cargo area. The service
plug is used only when the vehicle is
serviced by trained technicians wear-
ing personal protection equipment
and is part of the high-voltage sys-
tem. Touching the service plug can
cause severe burns or electric shock
that may result in serious injury or
death.
WARNING
In case of a collision:
∙ If your vehicle is drivable, pull your ve-hicle off the road, put the transmis-
sion in the P (Park) position, apply the
parking brake and turn the NISSAN
PURE DRIVE® Hybrid System off.
∙ Check to see if there are exposed high-voltage parts and cables. Never
touch the parts and cables. For addi-
tional information on their locations,
refer to “High-voltage components
and their locations” in this section. To
avoid personal injury, never touch
high-voltage wiring, connectors, and
other high-voltage parts, such as the
electric motor inverter and Li-ion bat-
tery. An electric shock may occur if
exposed electric wires are visible
when viewed from inside or outside of
your vehicle. Therefore, never touch
exposed electric wires.
∙ If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor while driving, stop the ve-
hicle in a safe location and check the
floor.
HIGH-VOLTAGE CAUTIONS ROAD ACCIDENT CAUTIONS
HEV OverviewHEV-3

∙ 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

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.

HYBRID VEHICLE
CHARACTERISTICS
WARNING
∙ When you leave your vehicle, be sureto 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
indicator light is on even if the gaso-
line engine is not running. When the
READY to drive indicator light is on, do
not leave your vehicle in a shif t posi-
tion other than the P (Park) position.
The vehicle will creep and start
abruptly if the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed 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 Li-ion battery may be
damaged. If the Li-ion battery is com-
pletely discharged and the hybrid sys-
tem cannot be activated, it is recom-
mended 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 ve-
hicles or home electronic appliances de-
spite their electromagnetic shieldings.
Charging the Li-ion battery while driving is
important. The vehicle cannot run if the Li-
ion battery is discharged. When in the N
(Neutral) position and while both the accel-
erator pedal and the brake pedal are not
depressed, the Li-ion battery does not re-
charge. Leaving the transmission in the N
(Neutral) position, while both the accelerator
pedal and the brake pedal are not de-
pressed for an extended period of time, may
discharge the Li-ion battery and the hybrid
system may automatically be turned off.
