4-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (if so equipped)
The 4-speed automatic transmission is electronically controlled to produce
maximum power and smooth operation.

The automatic transmission in your vehicle is designed so that the brake
pedal must be depressed before shifting from P (P ARk) to any gear
position while the ignition switch is in the O n position.

The shift lever cannot be moved out of P (P ARk) and into any of the other
gear positions if the ignition is turned to the LO ck position or if the key
is removed.
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) (if so equipped)
The cVT does not produce a gear change
sensation like traditional automatic transmissions.

R (ReVe RSe) speed for cVT vehicles is limited
to 15 MPH (25 km/h).
The transmission in your vehicle requires a special
fluid available only at your ni SSAn dealer. no other
fluid will meet the exact requirements of the cVT.

VEHICLE DYNAMIC CONTROL (VDC) OFF SWITCH (if so equipped)
The Vehicle dynamic control (Vdc) system uses various sensors to monitor driver inputs and
vehicle motion. under certain driving situations, the system will control braking and engine output to
help keep the vehicle on its steered path. V dc may need to be temporarily shut off if you are trying
to free a vehicle stuck in snow or mud.

Push the Vehicle dynamic control (VDC) OFF switch to deactivate the
Vdc system. The

light
will illuminate in the instrument panel gauge area.

Push the Vehicle dynamic control (VDC) OFF switch again to activate
the Vdc system. The

light in the instrument panel gauge area will

turn off.

The V dc system is active while the vehicle is running until the switch is
pressed to turn it off.
5-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (if so equipped)
To change gears, depress the clutch pedal fully and shift into the
appropriate gear, then release the clutch pedal slowly.

gear according to the vehicle speed.

On the 5-speed manual transmission, you cannot shift directly
from 5th gear into R (ReVe RSe). Stop the vehicle completely,
move the shift lever into the n (neuTRAL) position, then move
into the R (ReVe RSe) position.
6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (if so equipped)
