warning lights INFINITI QX60-HYBRID 2016 Owners Manual

●In the event of an accident that requires
body repair and painting, the vehicle
should be delivered to an INFINITI re-
tailer to have the Li-ion battery pack
and high-voltage parts such as the in-
verter, including the wiring harness, re-
moved prior to painting. Li-ion battery
packs exposed to heat in the paint
booth will experience capacity loss.
Damaged Li-ion battery packs may also
pose safety risks to untrained mechan-
ics and repair personnel. The emergency shut-off system is activated and
the high-voltage system automatically turns off in
the following conditions:
● Front and side collisions in which the air
bags are deployed
● Certain rear collisions
● Certain INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid
System malfunctions
For the above collisions and the certain hybrid
system malfunctions, the READY to drive indica-
tor light will turn off. For additional information,
refer to “Warning lights, indicator lights and au-
dible reminders” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section of this manual.
The emergency shut-off activates for the above
collisions to minimize risk of an event that could
cause injury or an accident. If the emergency
shut-off system activates, the hybrid system may
not switch to the READY to drive position; it is
recommended that you contact an INFINITI re-
tailer. Even if the ignition switch is switched to the
READY to drive position, the system may shut off
suddenly. Therefore, drive cautiously to the near-
est INFINITI retailer or contact an INFINITI retailer
as soon as possible. To start the INFINITI Direct Response Hybrid
System, depress the brake pedal and place the
ignition switch in the ON position when the trans-
mission is in the P (Park) position or N (Neutral)
position (P is recommended) .
CAUTION
Do not start the system in N (Neutral)
position under cold condition of the sys-
tem. Start in the P (Park) position in that
case.
The READY to drive indicator light
flashes
until the hybrid system is ready to drive.
If starting in a low temperature environment, the
flashing time of the READY lamp becomes lon-
ger. It cannot move out from P (Park) during
flashing.
When the READY to drive indicator light
illuminates, the vehicle can be driven, even if the
gasoline engine is not running.
NOTE:
The gasoline engine starts and stops auto-
matically. It may stop during deceleration
or when the vehicle is stopped.

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
Both the driver’s and passenger’s front seats are
equipped with a seat belt warning light. The
warning light, located on the instrument panel,
will show the status of the driver and passenger
seat belt.
NOTE:
The front passenger seat belt warning light
will not light up if the seat is not occupied.
For additional information, refer to “Warning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders” in
the “Instruments and controls” section of this
manual.
PREGNANT WOMEN
INFINITI recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug and
always position the lap belt as low as possible
around the hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your chest.
Never run the lap/shoulder belt over your ab-
dominal area. Contact your doctor for specific
recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
INFINITI recommends that injured persons use
seat belts. Check with your doctor for specific
recommendations.
PRE-CRASH SEAT BELTS WITH
COMFORT FUNCTION (front seats)
(if so equipped)
The pre-crash seat belt tightens the seat belt with
a motor to help restrain front seat occupants. This
helps reduce the risk of injury in a collision.
The motor retracts the seat belt under the follow-
ing emergency conditions:● During emergency braking.
● During sudden steering maneuvers ●
Activation of the Forward Emergency Brak-
ing (FEB) (if so equipped) . For additional
information, refer to “Forward Emergency
Braking (FEB)” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
● In the event of certain types of rollover colli-
sions.
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active when: ● the seat belt is not fastened.
● the vehicle speed is under 10 mph (15 km/h)
during emergency braking.
● the vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h)
during sudden steering maneuvers or cer-
tain types of rollover collisions.
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active when
the brake pedal is not depressed except when
sudden steering maneuvers occur and the For-
ward Emergency Braking (FEB) (if so equipped)
activates.
The motor also retracts the seat belt when the
seat belt is fastened or unfastened. When the
seat belt is fastened, the motor tightens the seat
belt for a snug fit. When the seat belt is unfas-
tened, the motor retracts the seat belt. If the seat
belt is not fully retracted, the motor retracts the
seat belt when the door is opened.
