headlamp NISSAN PATHFINDER HYBRID 2014 R52 / 4.G First Responders Guide

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
