NISSAN PURE DRIVE HYBRID
SYSTEM
LITHIUM-ION (Li-ion) BATTERY
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 vehicle 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 vehicle.
WARNING
If you continue to drive the vehicle while
the warning is displayed, the hybrid system may become temporarily inoperative
and the system cannot provide power to
the wheels. This can result in reduced or
zero vehicle speed. The reduced speed or
zero speed may be lower than other traffic, which could increase 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
shift lever in the P (Park) position, ignition
in the READY to drive position with the
vehicle stopped until the display turns off.
The hybrid system overheat warning and
the SHIFT “P” warning messages will be
alternately displayed. For additional information, refer to “Shift to Park” 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 electrical 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 any
other purpose.
The Li-ion battery is used to drive the electric
motors in the NISSAN PURE DRIVE Hybrid 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.
HEV-2 HEV Overview
HIGH-VOLTAGE CAUTIONS ROAD ACCIDENT CAUTIONS
WARNING
● The NISSAN PURE DRIVE Hybrid System uses high voltage up to approximately 235 volts. The system can be hot
while and after starting. Be careful 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, disassembling, removing or replacing those parts
and harnesses can cause severe burns
or electric shock that may result in serious injury or death. The vehicle highvoltage system has no user serviceable
parts. It is recommended 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 wearing
personal protection equipment and is
part of the high-voltage system. 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 vehicle off the road, put the transmission
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 highvoltage parts and cables. Never touch
the parts and cables. For their locations,
refer to “High-voltage components and
their locations” in this section. To avoid
personal injury, never touch highvoltage wiring, connectors, and other
high-voltage parts, such as electric motor inverter and Li-ion battery. 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 vehicle
in a safe location and check the floor.
● Inspect the ground under the vehicle. If
liquid has leaked onto the ground, the
fuel system may have been damaged.
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 Liion 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 immediate 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 extinguisher that is meant for use on electrical fires. Using water or the incorrect
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. Advise first
responders that this is a hybrid vehicle.
HEV Overview HEV-3
EMERGENCY SHUT-OFF SYSTEM OPERATION OF THE HYBRID
SYSTEM
● In the event of an accident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle
should be delivered to a NISSAN dealer
to have the Li-ion battery 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 capacity loss. Damaged Liion battery packs may also pose safety
risks to untrained 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 Sys-
tem malfunctions
For the above collisions and the certain hybrid
system malfunctions, the READY to drive indicator light will turn off. For additional 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 switched to the
READY to drive position, the system may shut off
suddenly. Therefore, drive cautiously to the nearest NISSAN dealer or contact a NISSAN dealer
as soon as possible.
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 (Neutral)
position under cold condition of the system. Start in the P (Park) position in that
case.
The READY to drive indicator light

If starting in a low temperature environment, 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 automatically. It may stop during deceleration
or when the vehicle is stopped.
flashes
HEV-4 HEV Overview
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 L (Low) position is engaged and Over
Drive is off.

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 temperature is high/low.
● When repeatedly starting and stopping the
engine.
STARTING AND SLOW SPEED
DRIVING
In some cases, the vehicle can be driven by
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 depending 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 rotating
wheels into electric power. For additional information, refer to “Regenerative brake” in this section.

HEV Overview HEV-9
REGENERATIVE BRAKE EFFICIENT USE OF YOUR VEHICLE
This vehicle is equipped with two braking systems.
● Hydraulic brake system
● Regenerative brake system
When the vehicle decelerates while the vehicle is
driven with the shift 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
following 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 system controls both hydraulic and regenerative 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.
Drive your vehicle with smooth acceleration and deceleration.
● While driving, energy is recovered through
the regenerative brake as the vehicle decelerates. However, for most efficient use, do
not accelerate or decelerate your vehicle
more than necessary.
● Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration.
● The power of the Li-ion battery can be
checked on the Energy Flow in the center
display (models with navigation system) or
Li-ion battery status meter in the vehicle
information display. For additional information, refer to “Energy Flow (models with navigation system)” in this section or “Vehicle
information display” in the “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual. Gradual or
non-abrupt acceleration and deceleration
will make more effective use of the electric
power.
● When parking, be sure to place the shift
lever in the P (Park) position. While driving,
place the shift lever in the D (Drive) position.
HEV-10 HEV Overview
APPROACHING VEHICLE SOUND
FOR PEDESTRIANS (VSP) SYSTEM
HYBRID VEHICLE PRECAUTIONS
The VSP system is a function that uses sound to
help alert pedestrians of the presence of the
vehicle when it is being driven at a low speed in
the electric drive mode under the following conditions:
● The sound starts when the vehicle starts
accelerating.
● The sound stops when the vehicle speed is
more than 19 mph (30 km/h) while accelerating only when the vehicle is powered by
the electric motor.
● The sound starts when the vehicle speed is
less than 16 mph (25 km/h) while decelerating only when the vehicle is powered by
the electric motor.
● The sound stops when the vehicle stops.
● The sound does not stop with the vehicle in
the R (Reverse) position even if the vehicle
stops.
The VSP system is automatically turned on when
the vehicle is in the READY to drive mode.
If there is a malfunction in the VSP system, the
VSP OFF indicator light in the meter illuminates.
For additional information, refer to “Approaching
Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians (VSP) OFF indicator light” in the “Instruments and controls” section of this manual.
WARNING
● If the sound from the VSP system is not
heard while driving, stop the vehicle in a
safe and quiet location. Open a window,
and then place the vehicle in the R (Reverse) position with the brake pedal
firmly depressed. Check that the operating sound can be heard from the front
side of the vehicle.
● If the sound cannot be heard, it is recommended that you immediately contact a NISSAN dealer for inspection.
HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS
AND THEIR LOCATIONS
WARNING
● The NISSAN PURE DRIVE Hybrid System uses high voltage up to approximately 235 volts. The system can be hot
during and after starting. Be careful of
both the high voltage and the high temperature. Obey the warning labels attached to the vehicle.
● Never touch, disassemble, remove or
replace the high-voltage parts, harnesses and their connectors. Highvoltage harnesses are orange. Touching, disassembling, removing or
replacing those parts and harnesses
can cause severe burns or electric
shock that may result in serious injury
or death.

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 indicator light is on even if the gasoline engine 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 accelerator 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 gradually. 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 Liion battery is completely discharged and
the hybrid system cannot be activated, it is
recommended 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 vehicles or home electronic
appliances despite 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), D (Drive),
or R (Reverse) position, and while the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal is not depressed, the
Li-ion battery does not recharge. Leaving the
transmission in the N (Neutral), D (Drive), or R
(Reverse) position, and while the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal is not depressed for an
extended period (for example, when the shift
lever is in the D (Drive) position and the vehicle is
stopped only by the parking brake), may discharge the Li-ion battery and the hybrid system
may automatically be turned off.

An air vent is located on the right hand side of the
luggage room to cool the Li-ion battery and
DC/DC converter. If the vent is covered, the
battery will overheat resulting in reduced output
performance of the hybrid system. For additional
information, refer to “Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery
air vent” in the “Appearance and care” section of
this manual.
HEV-14 HEV Overview
CAUTION
● Do not place objects over or into the air
vent. The Li-ion battery or DC/DC converter may overheat and be damaged.
● Do not allow any liquid to get on or in
the air vent. It may cause a short circuit
and damage the Li-ion battery and cooling fan.
CAUTION
Do not load large amounts of water in
open containers (aquariums or buckets)
into the vehicle. If the water spills onto the
Li-ion battery, it may cause a short circuit
and damage the Li-ion battery or DC/DC
converter.
Noise and vibration
After the hybrid system is activated, the following
noises and vibrations that are unique to the hybrid system may occur. The following situations
do not indicate a malfunction:
● Electric motor noise from the engine compartment
● Noise from the rear of the vehicle when the
hybrid system activates or deactivates
● Noise and vibration when the gasoline engine starts running or stops
● Operating noise or electric motor noise
when releasing the accelerator pedal or depressing the brake pedal
● Engine noise due to rapid acceleration
● Fan noise from the air inlet located on the
rear parcel shelf
● Noise from the climate control system
