(for example, whenclimbing steepgrades inhigh
temperature withheavy loads, suchaswhen towing a
trailer) ,engine powerand,under someconditions,
vehicle speedwillbedecreased automatically to

When thefail-safe operation occurs,theCVT willnot
be shifted tothe selected drivingposition.
If the vehicle isdriven underextreme conditions,
such asexcessive wheelspinning andsubse-
quent hardbraking, thefail-safe systemmaybe
activated. Thiswilloccur evenifall electrical
circuits arefunctioning properly.Inthis case,
place theignition switchinthe ªOFFº position
and wait for10seconds. Thenturntheignition
switch backtothe ªONº position. Thevehicle
should returntoits normal operating condition.
If itdoes notreturn toits normal operating
condition, haveaNISSAN dealercheckthe

WARNING:
When thefail-safe operation occurs,vehicle
speed maybegradually reduced.Thereduced
speed maybelower thanother traffic,which
could increase thechance ofacollision. Be
especially carefulwhendriving. Ifnecessary, pull
