CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) (if so equipped)
The CVT does not produce a gear change sen-
sation like traditional automatic transmissions.
The transmission in your vehicle requires a spe-
cial fluid available only at your NISSAN dealer.
No other fluid will meet the exact requirements
of the CVT.
MANUAL SHIFT MODE
When the shift selector is shifted from D (Drive)
to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters
the manual shift mode.
Inthe manual shiftmode, shiftrange isdis-
played on the position indicator in the meter.
When shifting up, move the shift selector to the
+ (up) side. (Shifts to higher range.)
When shifting down, move the shift selector 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.
