No. Component Location Description Traction Motor Inverter Engine compart-
ment (right rearside) Converts the DC power stored in the high
voltage 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.
High voltageBattery
Trunk area
(behind rear seatback) The high voltage battery stores and outputs
DC power (Maximum voltage 400V) needed to
propel the vehicle.
DC/DC Converter Trunk area (mounted to top of
high voltage battery) The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of
the high voltage battery to provide power to the
12-volt 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 trimpanel) This is used to disable the high voltage system.
12-volt Battery Trunk area (left side
behind trim panel) A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the
low voltage devices.
High VoltageHarnesses Trunk area (on high
voltage battery) ,
under floor pan,
engine compartment Orange-colored power cables carry high DC
voltage between each of the high voltagecomponents.

4-1.1 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 the12-volt 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 ( ) .
For models with a steering wheel lock mechanism:
If the 12-volt battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and cannot be
turned. Supply power using jumper cables before pushing the ignition switch and disengaging
the steering lock.
