If it is difficult to move the gear lever into R (Re-
verse) or 1st. Shift into N (Neutral), then release the
clutch pedal. Fully depress the clutch pedal again
and shift into R (Reverse) or 1st.
DRIVING WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION OR WITH
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (Models with manual
shift)
CAUTION
The cold engine idle speed is high, so use
caution when shifting into a forward or re-
verse gear before the engine has warmed up.
Avoid revving up the engine while the vehicle
is stopped. This could cause unexpected ve-
hicle movement.
Driving precautions
Never shift to P (Park) or R (Reverse) while
the vehicle is moving, this could result in dam-
age to the transmission.
Start the engine in the P (Park) or N (Neutral)
position. The engine will not start in any otherselector position. If it does, have your vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Do not depress the accelerator pedal while
shifting from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to R (Re-
verse), D (Drive) or Manual shift modes posi-
tion. Always depress the brake pedal until
shifting is completed.
On an uphill grade, do not hold the vehicle by
depressing the accelerator pedal. The foot-
brake should be used for this purpose, in or-
der to hold the vehicle in place and to prevent
overheating of the transmission.
Shift into the N (Neutral) position and apply
the handbrake when at a standstill for longer
than a short waiting period.
Keep the engine at idling speed while shifting
from the N (Neutral) position to any driving
position.
CAUTION (when starting the vehicle):
DEPRESS THE FOOTBRAKE PEDAL
When the engine is running, shifting the se-
lector lever into the R (Reverse), D (Drive) or
Manual shift mode position without depress-
ing the brake pedal causes the vehicle to
move slowly. Be sure the brake pedal is fully
depressed and the vehicle is stopped, before
shifting the selector lever.
BE AWARE OF THE SELECTOR LEVER POSI-
TION Make sure that the selector lever is in the
desired position. Use the D (Drive), or Manual
shift mode to move forwards and the R (Re-
verse) to move backwards. Release the hand-
brake lever and the footbrake pedal, then de-
press the accelerator pedal to start the vehicle
in motion and merge with traffic (avoid abrupt
starting and spinning the wheels).
Avoid revving up the engine while the vehicle
is stopped, this could cause unexpected ve-
hicle movement [if the selector lever is in the
R (Reverse), D (Drive), or Manual shift mode
position] or damage the engine [if the selec-
tor lever is in the N (Neutral) or P (Park) posi-
tion].
WARM THE ENGINE UP
Due to the higher idle speeds when the en-
gine is cold, extra caution must be taken when
shifting the selector lever into the driving po-
sition immediately after starting the engine.
PARKING THE VEHICLE
Depress the footbrake pedal and, once the
vehicle stops, move the selector lever into the
P (Park) position, pull the handbrake lever and
release the footbrake pedal.
Starting the vehicle
1. After starting the engine, fully depress the foot-
brake pedal before shifting the selector lever from
P (Park) to R (Reverse), D (Drive) or Manual shift
mode.

gear.
3. Release the handbrake and footbrake, then gradually start the vehicle in motion by pressing
the accelerator pedal.
The automatic transmission or continuously variable
transmission is designed so that the footbrake pedal
MUST be depressed before shifting from P (Park)
to any drive position while the ignition switch is ON.

P (Park):
Use this position when the vehicle is parked or when
starting the engine. Always make sure that the ve-
hicle is completely stopped before moving the se-
lector lever into the P (Park) position. For maximum
safety, the footbrake pedal must be depressed be-
fore moving the selector lever into the P (Park) posi-
tion. Use this position together with the handbrake.
When parking on a hill, first depress the footbrake
pedal, apply the handbrake and then shift into the P
(Park) position.
R (Reverse):
CAUTION
Shift into this position only after the vehicle has
completely stopped.
Use this position to reverse the vehicle.
When the selector lever is in the R (Reverse) posi-
tion, either the NISSAN Connect monitor (where fit-
ted) or the ultra sonic parking sensor (where fitted)
will be activated. For details, see “Rear-view moni-
tor (where fitted)” in the “4. Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system” section,
“Around view monitor (where fitted)” in the “4. Dis-
play screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio
system” section or “Ultrasonic Parking Sensor
(where fitted)” later in this section.
N (Neutral):
Neither forward nor reverse gear is engaged. The
engine can be started in this position. You may shift
to N and restart a stalled engine while driving the
vehicle.
D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward driving.
Gear shift indicator:
The gear shift indicator
jA located in the lower part
of the vehicle information display shows the current
position of the transmission.
It shows the P,R,N,D modes when the transmission
is in auto mode. It shows the gear number when the
transmission is in manual mode.

completely stopped and move the selector lever
into the P (Park) position. Apply the handbrake.
When parking on a hill, first depress the footbrake
pedal, apply the handbrake, and then move the se-
lector lever into the P (Park) position.
R (Reverse):
Use this position to reverse. Make sure that the
vehicle is completely stopped before selecting the R
(Reverse) position.
When the selector lever is in the R (Reverse) posi-
tion, either the NISSAN Connect monitor (where fit-
ted) or the ultra sonic parking sensor (where fitted)
will be activated. For details, see “Rear-view moni-
tor (where fitted)” or “Around view monitor (where
fitted)” earlier in this section or “Ultrasonic Parking
Sensor (where fitted)” later in this section
N (Neutral):
Neither the forward nor reverse gear is engaged.
The engine can be started in this position. You may
shift to the N (Neutral) position and restart a stalled
engine while the vehicle is moving.
D (Drive):

driving slowly through deep snow, sand or mud, or
for maximum engine braking on steep downhill
grades.
SPORT mode switch
To select the SPORT mode, push the SPORT mode
switch with the selector lever in the D (Drive) posi-
tion. The SPORT mode indicator light
in the
meter panel illuminates. To turn off the SPORT
mode, push the SPORT mode switch again. The
SPORT mode indicator light will turn off. When the
selector lever is shifted to any position other than D,
the SPORT mode will be automatically turned off.
OFF position:
For normal driving and fuel economy, use the OFF
position. ON position:
For driving up or down long slopes where engine
braking is necessary, or for powerful acceleration,
use the ON position. The transmission will automati-
cally select a different gear ratio, allowing the en-
gine to provide high output.
When driving conditions change, push the switch to
turn the SPORT mode off.
Remember not to drive at high speeds for extended
periods of time with the SPORT mode in the ON
position. This reduces fuel economy.
Accelerator downshift

jA , fitted in the vehicle’s rear
bumper, measure the distance between the vehicle
and an obstacle when reversing. When reverse gear
is engaged a beeping sound is heard. The frequency
of the beeps will increase the closer you come to
the obstacle until, the sound becomes a constant
beep when, the vehicle is approximately 30 cm (12
in) from the obstacle.
NOTE
This system is intended as an aid to reversing,
to be used in conjunction with your rear view
mirror.
Make sure that the ultrasonic sensors are not
obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.). The Four Wheel Drive (4WD) system is used to
select 2WD, AUTO, or LOCK depending on the
driving conditions.
The Four Wheel Drive (4WD) system controls the
coupling operation. Turn the control (located on the
centre console) to select each mode: 2WD, AUTO
or LOCK depending on the driving conditions.
AUTO: Turn the 4WD mode control to the neutral
(AUTO) position and the Four-Wheel Drive (4WD)
AUTO indicator light
on the combination meter
illuminates.
2WD: Turn the control clockwise to the 2WD posi-
tion.
LOCK: When the control is turned anticlockwise to
the LOCK position, it springs back to the AUTO
position when released. The 4WD LOCK mode in-
dicator light
illuminates on the combination
meter, to show LOCK mode is engaged. To disen-
gage LOCK mode, turn the control anticlockwise
again to the LOCK position and release. The 4WD
LOCK mode indicator light will go out.
