the accelerator pedal by depressing the
brake pedal and pushing the push-button
ignition switch to start the engine. If the
engine starts, but fails to run, repeat the
above procedure.
CAUTION
Do not operate the starter for more than
15 seconds at a time. If the engine does
not start, push the ignition switch to the
OFF position and wait 10 seconds before
cranking again, otherwise the starter
could be damaged.4. Warm-up
Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 sec-
onds after starting. Do not race the engine
while warming it up. Drive at moderate
speed for a short distance first, especially in
cold weather. In cold weather, keep the en-
gine running for a minimum of two to three
minutes before shutting it off. Starting and
stopping the engine over a short period of
time may make the vehicle more difficult to
start.
5. To stop the engine, shift the shift lever into the P (Park) position and push the ignition
switch to the OFF position. In preparation for the next engine start, the engine
may have a slightly delayed shutoff after placing
the ignition switch in the OFF position, depend-
ing on the driving conditions.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery discharge
and potential no-start conditions such as:
1. Installation or extended use of electronic accessories that consume battery power
when the engine is not running (Phone char-
gers, GPS, DVD players, etc.)
2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to be
charged to maintain battery health.
REMOTE ENGINE START (if so
equipped)
Vehicles started with the remote engine start
require the ignition switch to be placed in the ON
position before the shift lever can be moved from
the P (Park) position. To place the ignition switch
to the ON position, follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you.
2. Apply the brake.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON position.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN In-
telligent Key®” in the “Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section of this manual.
Starting and driving5-15

For additional information on starting your diesel
engine, refer to your “Titan Diesel Owner’s
Manual.”ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The engine has an engine protection mode to
reduce the chance of damage if the coolant tem-
perature becomes too high (for example, when
climbing steep grades in high temperature with
heavy loads, such as when towing a trailer) .
When the engine temperature reaches a certain
level:● The engine coolant temperature gauge will
move toward the H position.
● Engine power may be reduced.
● The air conditioning cooling function may be
automatically turned OFF for a short time
(the blower will continue to operate) .
Engine power and, under some conditions, ve-
hicle speed will decrease. Vehicle speed can be
controlled with the accelerator pedal, but the
vehicle may not accelerate at the desired speed.
The transmission will downshift or upshift as it
reaches prescribed shift points. You can also
shift manually.
As driving conditions change and engine coolant
temperature is reduced, vehicle speed can be
increased using the accelerator pedal, and air
conditioning cooling function will automatically
be turned back ON. If:
1. The engine coolant temperature is not re- duced.
2. The air conditioning cooling function does not turn back ON.
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may also
come ON. If onlyit remains on, you do not need
to have your vehicle towed, but have it inspected
soon. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for servicing. For additional information,
refer to “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in the
“Instruments and controls ” section of this
manual.
WARNING
Overheating can result in reduced engine
power and vehicle speed. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic,
which could increase the chance of a col-
lision. Be especially careful when driving.
If the vehicle cannot maintain a safe driv-
ing speed, pull to the side of the road in a
safe area. Allow the engine to cool and
return to normal operation. For additional
information, refer to “If your vehicle over-
heats” in the “In case of emergency” sec-
tion of this manual.
STARTING THE ENGINE (diesel only) DRIVING THE VEHICLE
5-16Starting and driving

Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1←→ M2←→ M3←→ M4
M4 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.
M3 (Third)
Use for hill climbing or engine braking on downhill
grades.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1 ←→ M2←→ M3
M3 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.
M2 (Second)
Use for hill climbing or engine braking on downhill
grades.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1 ←→ M2
M2 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter. M1 (First)
Use this position when climbing steep hills slowly
or driving slowly through deep snow, sand or
mud, or for maximum engine braking on steep
downhill grades.
M1 will be displayed on the position indicator on
the meter.
● Remember not to drive at high speeds for
extended periods of time in lower than M4
range. This reduces fuel economy.
When shifting up
Push the shift switch to the + (up) side. (Shifts to
higher range.)
When shifting down
Push the shift switch to the (down) side. (Shifts
to lower range.)
● The transmission will automatically down-
shift the gears. (For example, if you select the
3rd range, the transmission will shift down
between the 3rd and 1st gears.)
● Pushing the shift switch rapidly will shift the
ranges in succession. When canceling the manual shift mode
Press and hold the +(UP) button to return the
transmission to the normal driving mode.
● In the manual shift mode, the transmis-
sion may not shift to the selected gear
immediately because of vehicle speed.
The transmission will up or down shift
when vehicle speed matches the pro-
grammed transmission shift points.
This helps maintain driving perfor-
mance and reduces the chance of ve-
hicle damage or loss of control.
● In the manual shift mode, the transmis-
sion will not up shift to a higher gear
than is manually selected. When the
vehicle speed decreases, the transmis-
sion automatically shifts down and
shifts to 1st gear before the vehicle
comes to a stop.

Shift lock release
If the battery is discharged, the shift lever may not
be moved from the P (Park) position even with the
brake pedal depressed.
To move the shift lever, release the shift lock. The
shift lever can be moved to N (Neutral) . However,
for models without the NISSAN Vehicle Immobi-
lizer System, the steering wheel will be locked
unless the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position. This allows the vehicle to be moved if
the battery is discharged.To push the shift lock release, complete the fol-
lowing procedure:
1.
Place the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Remove the shift lock release cover. If a screwdriver is used to remove the cover, it
should be wrapped in a protective cloth to
prevent damage to the cover and surround-
ing plastic.
4. Insert a small object or finger in the shift lock release slot and push.
5. Move the shift lever to the N (Neutral) posi- tion while holding the shift lock release.
6. Now the vehicle may be moved to the de- sired location.
If the shift lever cannot be moved out of P (Park) ,
have the automatic transmission system checked
as soon as possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
WARNING
If the shift lever cannot be moved from the
P (Park) position while the engine is run-
ning and the brake pedal is depressed, the
stop lights may not work. Malfunctioning
stop lights could cause an accident injur-
ing yourself and others.
Accelerator downshift
— in D (Drive) position —
For passing or hill climbing, depress the accel-
erator pedal to the floor. This shifts the transmis-
sion down into a lower gear, depending on the
vehicle speed.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, please note
that the transmission will be locked in any of the
forward gears according to the condition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme con-
ditions, such as excessive wheel spinning
and subsequent hard braking, the fail-safe
system may be activated. This will occur
even if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, turn the ignition
switch OFF and wait for 3 seconds. Then
turn the ignition switch back to the ON
position. The vehicle should return to its
normal operating condition. If it does not
return to its normal operating condition,
have the transmission checked and re-
paired, if necessary. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
