3-4 Turning OFF the Ignition Switch
1. Check the READY indicator status. If it is ON, the high-voltage system is active.
2.
Press the ignition switch once to turn OFF the high-
voltage system. Then verify whether the READY indicator is OFF.
3.
If possible, keep the Infiniti Intelligent Key at least 5
meters (16 feet) away from the vehicle to prevent
accidentally turning ON the hybrid system while the
roadside assistance is in progress.
3-5 Water Submersion DANGER
Damage level of submerged vehicle may not be apparent. Handling a submerged
vehicle
without appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will result in serious
injury or death from electrical shock. •
The ignition switch of the submerged vehicle must be turned OFF first, if possible.
Then
the vehicle must be completely out of the water and drained to avoid electrical
shock.
• If the vehicle is in the water, to avoid electrical shock NEVER touch the high-voltage
components,
harnesses or service plug. PPE must always be worn when touching or
working on high-voltage components.
Only first responders wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should shut down the
vehicle. After shut down, standard towing/recovery procedures can be used.

Jump Starting
To start the hybrid system with a booster battery, the instructions and precautions below must be followed. If done incorrectly, jump starting can lead to a 12-volt battery explosion, resulting in severe
personal
injury or death. It could also damage your vehicle.
Jump starting provides power to the 12-volt system to allow the electrical systems to operate. The electrical
systems must be operating to allow the high-voltage battery to be charged. Jump starting does not charge
the high-voltage battery.
Discharged 12-volt battery may cause the following issues: • The instrument cluster cannot be displayed while the ignition switch is turned ON. (The hybridsystem cannot start.)
• Headlamps, horn, etc. are weak. • To avoid electrical shock, the high-voltage battery CANNOT be jump started.
•
Explosive hydrogen gas is always present in the vicinity of the 12-volt battery. Keep all
sparks and flames away from the 12-volt battery. Make sure the vent tube is mounted.
• Do not allow battery fluid to come into contact with eyes, skin, clothing or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a corrosive sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe burns. If
the fluid comes into contact with anything, immediately flush the contacted area with
water.
• The booster battery must be rated at 12-volts. Use of an improperly rated battery can damage the vehicle.
• Whenever working on or near a 12-volt battery, always wear suitable eye protectors (for example, goggles or industrial safety spectacles) and remove rings, metal bands, or any
other jewelry. Do not lean over the 12-volt battery when jump starting.
• Do not attempt to jump start a frozen battery. It could explode and cause serious injury.
• QX60 HYBRID is equipped with an automatic cooling fan. It could come on at any time. Keep hands and other objects away from it.
• Always follow the jump starting instructions below. Failure to do so could result in damage to the charging system and cause personal injury.

If the green READY light does not come on, press the START button to turn the
Hybrid
System OFF. Carefully disconnect the negative cable then the positive cable. It is
recommended the vehicle is taken to an INFINITI retailer for repair.
9. After the green READY light in the meter display comes ON, carefully disconnect the
negative
cable and then the positive cable.
10. Replace the vent caps (if so equipped) . Be sure to dispose of the cloth used to cover the vent holes as it may be contaminated with corrosive acid.
11. Reinstall the fuse box cover.
NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the hybrid system ON by following this procedure, it is
recommended you contact an INFINITI retailer immediately.
4-1.2 Shift Selector Lever Lock Release
If the 12-volt battery is low or discharged, the selector lever cannot be moved from the Park (P) position. If a
booster battery is not available, the selector lever lock can be manually released. To manually release the
selector lever lock, perform the following procedure: 1. Push the ignition switch to the LOCK or OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Remove the shift lock cover using a suitable tool.
4. Push down the shift lock using a suitable tool as shownin the illustration.
5. Push the selector lever button and move the selector lever to the Neutral (N) position while holding down the
shift lock.

4-3.2 Towing Guidelines
Infiniti
strongly recommends that QX60 HYBRID be towed with the driving wheels off the ground or that the
vehicle be placed on a flatbed truck. • AWD Models: Never tow with any of the wheels on the ground, as this may cause
serious
and expensive damage to the powertrain.
• FWD Models: Never tow with the front wheels on the ground, as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the powertrain.
• Transport the vehicle only after turning the ignition switch OFF.
• Safety chains or cables must be attached only to the main structural members of the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
• Do not use the vehicle tie down points to free a vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.
• Never tow a vehicle using the vehicle tie down.
• Always pull the recovery device straight out from the vehicle. Never pull on the vehicle at an angle.
• Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake, high-voltage or cooling systems.
• Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.
Perform vehicle towing by holding up drive wheels (front or all, depending on model) or on flatbed in order
to prevent secondary damage from voltage generated by the motor. In addition, turn the ignition switch OFF
when towing the vehicle. Refer to the following illustration:

5-2 Removing The Service Plug
DANGER
• Do not remove the service plug without always wearing appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) to help protect the responder from serious injury or death
by electrical shock.
• Immediately cover the service plug socket with insulated tape. The high-voltage
battery
retains high-voltage power even when the service plug is removed. To avoid
electric shock, NEVER touch the terminals inside the socket. To avoid unintended reinstallation and risk of electrical shock and severe personal injury
or
death, the service plug should be securely stored away from the vehicle while the vehicle
is in storage.
1. If possible, check the READY indicator status in the instrument cluster. If it is on, the high-
voltage
system is active.
2. Place the shift selector in the Park (P) position.
3. Push the ignition switch once to turn OFF the high- voltage system. Then verify whether the READY indicator
is off.
If the READY indicator does not turn off, continue to
