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. See
“Regenerative brake”(P.Hybrid System-8).
STOPPING
The gasoline engine may stop running to
save fuel depending on the available Li-ion
battery charge. The INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid
®
System monitors the status of power being
sent to the electric motor and the Lithium
ion (Li-ion) battery state of charge. The
status is shown on the assist charge gauge
in the meter and the energy flow/remain-
ing Li-ion battery charge in the vehicle
information display. System status can
also be shown when the screen is in the
energy flow mode or energy/fuel history
mode.

ASSIST CHARGE GAUGE
This gauge indicates the actual electric
motor power consumption and the char-
ging power to the Li-ion battery.
For additional information, see
“Assist
charge gauge” (P.2-8).
ENERGY FLOW
When you use this system, make sure the
hybrid system is in the READY to drive
mode. See“Operation of the INFINITI Direct
Response Hybrid
®System” (P.Hybrid Sys-
tem-4).

All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models
If you use the system with the hybrid
system off (ignition switch placed in the
ACC position) for a long time, it will
discharge the 12-volt battery power, and
the hybrid system will not start.
Energy monitor for various operating
modes can be displayed on the vehicle
information display. (See “1. Energy moni-
tor” (P.2-31).)
This is an example of the Energy Flow
display. The Energy Flow display changes,
depending on the following operating
conditions. The graphic indicates the
amount of power in the Li-ion battery. The following are displayed on the Energy
Flow screen.
.
When the vehicle is powered only by
the electric motor.
. When the vehicle is powered only by
the gasoline engine.
. When the vehicle is powered by both
the electric motor and the gasoline
engine.
. When the vehicle is charging the Li-ion
battery with the regenerative brake and
gasoline engine.
. When the vehicle is charging the Li-ion
battery with the regenerative brake.
. When the vehicle is charging the Li-ion
battery with the gasoline engine.
. When the vehicle is powered by the
gasoline engine and is charging the Li-
ion battery.
. When there is no Energy Flow in the
vehicle
. When the vehicle is driving by the All-
Wheel Drive (AWD) (AWD models).

The Fuel Economy History screen appears
in the lower display when the screen is in
the Fuel Economy History mode.

JVO0112X
The Fuel Economy History displays the
vehicle’s average fuel consumption and
regenerative electric power at 2 minute
intervals.
The displayed values on the screen in-
dicate general driving conditions. Accuracy
varies with driving habits and road condi-
tions.
1. Regenerated energy in the past 12 minutes: The regenerated energy in
the past 12 minutes is indicated with
symbols
. One symbol indicates 30
watt-hour. The energy of 30 watt-hour
illuminates a 30 watt bulb for an hour. 2. Fuel consumption (without latest col-
umn) in the past 12 minutes: Fuel
consumption in the past 12 minutes is
displayed.
3. Current fuel consumption (Latest col- umn): The current fuel consumption is
calculated and displayed based on
distance and fuel consumption.
NOTE:
The fuel consumption displays on the
upper side of the fuel economy history
display, and the regenerated energy dis-
plays on the lower side of the economy
history.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT
The supplemental air bag warning light,
displayingin the instrument panel,
monitors the circuits for the air bag
systems, pretensioners and all related
wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates for about 7 seconds and
then turns off. This means the SRS air bag
systems are operational.
