.Based on driving conditions.
. The shift lever is shifted to the P (Park)
position, the driver’s seat belt is re-
leased and the driver’s side door is then
opened.
The hybrid system operates as follows based
on driving conditions and the Li-ion battery
charge.
STARTING AND SLOW SPEED
DRIVING
The vehicle is driven by the electric motor
depending on the available Li-ion battery
charge.
MEDIUM OR HIGH SPEED DRIV-
ING
The system automatically controls the gaso-
line engine and electric motor in order to
obtain the optimum fuel mileage and per-
formance, 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. 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
®Sys-
tem 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/remaining 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 meter displays the actual electric motor
power consumption and the charging 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 hybrid system” (P.
Hybrid System-4).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 Flow for various operating modes
can be displayed on the center display.
1. Push INFO button on the control panel.
2. Touch [Energy Flow].
JVO0219X
This is an example of the Energy Flow
display. The Energy Flow display changes,
depending on the following operating con-
ditions. 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 or 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 powered by the
gasoline engine and is charging the Li-
Page 14 of 458

ion battery.
. When there is no Energy Flow in the
vehicle.
The Energy Flow and remaining Li-ion
battery charge can be also shown on the
vehicle information display. See “Trip com-
puter” (P.2-28).
FUEL ECONOMY HISTORY
The Fuel Economy History screen appears in
the center display when the screen is in the
Fuel Economy History mode.
1. Push the INFO button on the control panel.
2. Touch [Fuel Economy History].
JVO0112X
The Fuel Economy History displays the
vehicle’s average fuel consumption and re-
generative electric power at 2 minute inter-
vals.
The displayed values on the screen indicate
general driving conditions. Accuracy varies
with driving habits and road conditions.
1. Regenerated energy in the past 12 minutes: The regenerated energy in the
past 12 minutes is indicated with sym-
bols
. One symbol indicates 30 watt-
hour. The energy of 30 watt-hour illu-
minates a 30 watt bulb for an hour.
2. Fuel consumption (without latest col- umn) in the past 12 minutes: Fuel con-
sumption in the past 12 minutes is displayed.
3. Current fuel consumption (Latest col- umn): The current fuel consumption is
calculated and displayed based on dis-
tance and fuel consumption.
NOTE:
The fuel consumption displays on the upper
side of the fuel economy history display,
and the regenerated energy displays on the
lower side of the fuel economy history.

Hybrid System-8Hybrid System Overview
When the vehicle decelerates while the
vehicle is driven with the shift lever in the D
(drive) position or in the manual shift mode,
the Lithium ion (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 follow-
ing circumstances:
.When the accelerator pedal is released.
. When the brake pedal is depressed
. When there is no malfunction in the brake
system or the INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
®System
The regenerative brake may not work prop-
erly if the vehicle has tires and road wheels
other than the ones specified in this manual.
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 de-
celerate your vehicle more than neces-
sary.
. Avoid abrupt acceleration and decelera-
tion.
. The power of the Lithium ion (Li-ion)
battery can be checked on the Energy
Flow in the center display or Li-ion
battery status meter in the vehicle
information display. See “Energy Flow”
(P.Hybrid System-6) or “Trip computer”
(P.2-28). Gradual or non-abrupt accel-
eration and deceleration will make more
effective use of the electric motor
power, using less gasoline engine 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 Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedes-
trians (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.
. The sound starts when the vehicle speed
is less than 16 MPH (25 km/h) while
decelerating.
. 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. See “Approaching Vehicle Sound
for Pedestrians (VSP) OFF indicator light”
(P.2-18).

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.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
air bags and/or pretensioner systems need
servicing: .
The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on after approximately 7 sec-
onds.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the air bags and/or
pretensioner systems may not operate prop-
erly. They must be checked and repaired. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the air bags
and/or pretensioner systems will not
operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle checked. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service
as soon as possible.
