2. Basic High Voltage Information
2-1 Battery Information
The Q50 HYBRID utilizes two batteries in order to supply both high and low voltage.
2-1.1 12V Battery• The Q50 HYBRID contains a conventional lead-acid12V battery.
• The 12V battery is located in the trunk, on the left side, concealed by a trim cover.
• The 12V battery is charged by the Li-ion battery through the DC/DC converter.
2-1.2 Li-ion Battery • The Q50 HYBRID contains a Li-ion high voltage battery.
• The high voltage battery is mounted in the trunk areabehind the rear seat, enclosed in a metal case and
concealed by trim cover.
• The high voltage battery stores energy at approximately 346 - 400 volts DC.
• A vent hose is provided to exhaust gasses outside the vehicle if necessary.
• An air vent (A) is located on the rear left hand lower C-pillar trim for battery cooling.
The high voltage battery supplies power to the following: • High voltage harnesses
• DC/DC converter
• Traction motor inverter
• Traction motor
• Electric air conditioner compressor

No. Component Location Description Traction Motor Inverter
Engine compartment
(rear passengerside)Converts the DC power stored in the Li-ion
battery to three-phase AC power and controls
motor torque (revolution) by regulating the
motor current. The inverter has a built in high
voltage capacitor.
Traction Motor Built-into the
transmission Converts three-phase alternating current (AC)
power to drive power (torque) which propels
the vehicle.
Lithium-ion (Li-ion)Battery
Trunk area
(behind rear seatback) The Li-ion battery stores and outputs DC
power (Maximum voltage 400V) needed to
propel the vehicle.
DC/DC Converter Trunk area (mounted to top of
Li-ion battery) The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of
the Li-ion battery to provide power to the 12V
battery in order to operate the vehicle’s electric
components (headlights, audio system, etc.) .
Service Plug Trunk area
(below parcel shelf;
behind access door
in trim panel) This is used to disable the high voltage system.
12V Battery Trunk area (left side
behind trim panel) A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the
low voltage devices.

SRS Air Bag System Components Location
The SRS air bag system must not be cut as there is a risk of short circuit and unintentional deployment of
the SRS However, the vehicle can be cut (except inflators) under the following conditions:• The front, side and curtain air bags have deployed.
• At least three (3) minutes have passed after the 12V battery negative (-) cable has beendisconnected and the high voltage system has been shut down.
1. Crash zone sensor (located
underhood near hood latch) 2. Supplemental front air bag
modules (Infiniti Advanced
Air Bags)3. Front seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bags
4. Roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air bags 5. Roof-mounted curtain side-

4-1 Jump Starting Procedures
NOTE:Jumper cable connections under the hood of the Q50 HYBRID are not connected directly to
a battery. They are connected to chassis ground and a fuse box terminal. Refer to the
following instructions and the above illustration.
1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle (A) , position the two vehicles (A and B) to bring the12V battery and fuse box into close proximity to each other.
DO NOT allow the two vehicles to touch.
2. Apply the parking brake. Move the selector lever the P (Park) position. Switch off all unnecessary electrical systems (headlights, heater, air conditioner, etc.) .
3. Remove fuse box cover on the Q50 HYBRID and connect jumper cables in the sequence as illustrated ( ) .
• Always connect positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (-) to body ground (for example,
as illustrated) , not to the 12V battery.
• Make sure the jumper cables do not touch moving parts in the engine compartment and that the cable clamps do not contact any other metal.
• If the hybrid system does not start right away, push the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait approximately ten (10) seconds before trying again.
4. Start the engine of the booster vehicle (A) and let it run for a few minutes.
5. Start the hybrid system of the vehicle being jump started (B) .
6. After starting the hybrid system, carefully disconnect the negative cable and then the positive cable ( ) .
7. Reinstall the fuse box cover.
NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the hybrid system ON by following this procedure, contact
an INFINITI retailer immediately.
