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 runson 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 youcontinue to drive thevehicle 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 and the
ignition in the READY to drive position
with the vehicle stopped until the display turns off.The “Hybrid System Overheated Stop Vehicle” warning and the
“Shift to Park” warning will be alternately displayed. For additional information, refer to “Vehicle information
display warnings and indicators” in the
“Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.
WARNING
Your vehicle contains a sealed Lithiumion (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.

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.
HEV-10 HEV Overview
EFFICIENT USE OF YOUR VEHICLE APPROACHING VEHICLE SOUND FOR
PEDESTRIANS (VSP) SYSTEM
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 ordecelerate your vehicle more than necessary.
∙ Avoid abrupt acceleration and decel-
eration.
∙ The power of the Li-ion battery can be
checked on the Energy Flow in the center display(models withNavigation 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.
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 ve-
hicle 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 ina safeand quietlocation. 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 rec-
ommended that you immediately
contact a NISSAN dealer for
inspection.

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 shif t 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 30minutes at
least once every two to three months.
Otherwise, the Li-ion battery may be
damaged. If the Li-ion 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 Liion battery is discharged. When in the N
(Neutral) position and while both the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal are not
depressed, the Li-ion battery does not recharge. Leaving the transmission in the N
(Neutral) position, while both the accelerator
pedal and the brake pedal are not depressed for an extended period of time, may
discharge the Li-ion battery and the hybrid
system may automatically be turned off.
