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 accident. If the
emergency shut-off system activates, the
hybrid system may not switch to the READY
to drive position. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer. Even if the ignition
switch is placed in the READY to drive posi-
tion, the system may shut off suddenly.
Therefore, drive cautiously to the nearest
NISSAN dealer or contact a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible.
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.
OPERATION OF THE HYBRID SYSTEM
HEV OverviewHEV-5

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.
