XTRONIC CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (CVT) ™ (if so equipped)
The Xtronic CVT™ does not produce a gear change sensation like traditional automatic transmissions.
R (Reverse) speed, for CVT vehicles, is limited to 15 MPH (25 km/h).
STARTING THE ENGINE WITH CVT (Intelligent Key models only)
Push the ignition knob in.
Confirm the Intelligent Key warning light is illuminated green.
Turn the ignition knob to start the engine.
TURNING THE ENGINE OFF WITH CVT (Intelligent Key models only)
Shift transmission into P (Park).
Turn ignition knob to LOCK position.
OVERDRIVE (O/D) OFF SWITCH
Each time your vehicle is started, the transmission is automatically “reset” to Overdrive on.
To turn Overdrive mode off, push the O/D OFF switch 01. The
LCN0030
O/DOFF light in the instrument panel will illuminate.
Use the Overdrive off mode when you need improved engine braking.
The transmission in your Versa requires a special fluid (NS-2) available only at your NISSAN dealer. No other fluid will meet the exact requirements of the new Xtronic CVT™.
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 lever, then move it to the left and up into Reverse.
PUSH RELEASE BUTTON (Intelligent Key Models with Manual Transmission only)
The ignition knob can only be turned to the LOCK position when the PUSH release button 01 has been pressed.
The LCN0129
LOCK Intelligent Key lock warning light blinks and the buzzer sounds if the PUSH release button has not been pressed completely when the ignition knob is turned to
the LOCK position.
