1. About the Pathfinder HYBRID
This hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) uses two types of batteries. One is a 12V battery that is the same as the
battery in vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. The 12V battery is located under the hood near
the driver side headlamp. The other is the Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery (high voltage) for the traction motor
which propels the vehicle. The Li-ion battery is located under the third row seating with service plug access
through the cargo area storage bin.
The high voltage Li-ion battery is recharged with an on-board DC/DC converter and generator powered by
the engine. Additionally, the vehicle system can recharge the Li-ion battery by converting driving force
into electricity while the vehicle is decelerating or being driven downhill. This is called regenerative charging.FRG–5

2. Basic High Voltage System and 12V System Information
2-1 Battery Information
The Pathfinder HYBRID utilizes two batteries in order to supply both high and low voltage.
2-1.1 Low Voltage Battery• The Pathfinder HYBRID contains a conventional lead-acid12 volt battery.
• The 12V battery is located in the front of the vehicle on the left side of the engine compartment, under a trim cover.
• The 12V battery is charged by the Li-ion battery through the DC/DC converter.
: Vehicle front
2-1.2 Li-ion Battery • The Pathfinder HYBRID contains a Li-ion high voltagebattery.
• The high voltage battery is mounted in the cargo area under the 3rd row seating, enclosed in a metal case
and concealed by trim cover.
• The high voltage battery stores approximately 144 volts DC.
• A vent hose is provided to exhaust gasses outside the vehicle, if necessary.
• Air vents (A) are located on the cargo area trim panels for battery cooling.
The high voltage battery supplies power to the following: • High voltage harnesses
• DC/DC converter
• Traction motor inverter
• Traction motor
