XTRONIC CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (CV T) (if so equipped)
The Xtronic CVT does not produce a gear
change sensation like traditional automatic
transmissions.
The transmission in your vehicle requires a
special fluid available only at your NISSAN
dealer. No other fluid will meet the exact
requirements of the new Xtronic CVT.
MANUAL SHIFT MODE
When the shift selector lever is shifted from D
(Drive) to the manual shift gate, the
transmission enters the manual shift mode.
In the manual shift mode, shift range is
displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
When shifting up, move the shift selector lever to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher
range.)
When shifting down, move the shift selector lever to the - (down) side. (Shifts to
lower range.)
In manual shift mode, the transmission automatically shifts down to M1 (first) before
the vehicle comes to a stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift to the
desired range.
When canceling the manual shift mode, return the shift selector lever to the D (Drive)
position. The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.
6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION
(if so equipped)
LOCK OUT
In 6-speed manual transmission equipped
vehicles, the shift lever is equipped with
a Reverse lock-out feature that prevents
accidental selection of Reverse (instead of 1st
gear).
SHIFTING TO REVERSE
Lift up on the collar just below the shift knob,
then move it to the left and up into Reverse.
