5-18Starting and driving
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 OFF and wait 10
seconds before cranking again,
otherwise the starter could be da-
maged.
4. Warm-up
Allow the engine to idle for at least 30
seconds 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 engine running for
a minimum of 2 - 3 minutes before
shutting it off. Starting and stopping
the engine over a short period of time
may make the vehicle more difficult to
start.
When the engine is racing with no load
and cold, the engine speed is limited
to about 4,500 rpm. 5. To stop the engine, push the park
button to shift to the P (Park) position,
and push the ignition switch to the
OFF position.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start condi-
tions such as:
1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume
battery power when the engine is
not running (Phone chargers, 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 function require the ignition switch
to be placed in the ON position before the
shift position can be shifted from the P
(Park) position. To place the ignition
switch in the ON position, perform the
following steps:
1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is carried with you. 2. Depress the brake pedal.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the
ON position.
For additional information about the
remote engine start function, see “Re-
mote engine start” (P.3-19).

5-20Starting and driving
fully and the vehicle is stopped
before shifting the shift lever.
. MAKE SURE OF THE SHIFT LEVER
POSITION - Make sure the shift
position is in the desired position
on the vehicle information dis-
play. D (Drive) and M (Manual shift
mode) are used to move forward
and R (Reverse) to back up.
. WARM UP THE ENGINE - Due to the
higher idle speeds when the en-
gine is cold, extra caution must
be exercised when shifting the
shift lever into the driving posi-
tion immediately after starting
the engine.

Home position (central position)
To move the shift lever,
: Push the buttonto shift.
: Shift without pushing the button.
Shifting
Push the park buttonto shift to the P
(Park) position.
After starting the engine, fully depress the
brake pedal, push the shift lever button
and move the shift lever from the P (Park)
positionto any of the desired shift
positions.
Confirm that the vehicle is in the desired
shift position by checking the shift indi-
cator located on the shift lever or on the vehicle information display.
WARNING
Apply the electronic parking brake if
the shift lever is in any position while
the engine is not running. Failure to
do so could cause the vehicle to
move unexpectedly or roll away and
result in serious personal injury or
property damage.
CAUTION
.
Use the P (Park), R (Reverse) or D
(Drive) position only when the
vehicle is completely stopped.
. When switching to the desired
shift position by operating the
shift lever, check that the shift
lever returns to the central posi-
tion by releasing your hand from
the lever. Holding the shift lever in
a mid-way position may also
damage the shift control system.
. Do not operate the shift lever
while the accelerator pedal is
depressed. This may cause a
sudden start which could result

in an accident.
. The following operations are not
allowed because excessive force
would be applied to the transmis-
sion and this may result in da-
mage to the vehicle:
— Moving the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position when driv-
ing forward
— Moving the shift lever to the D (Drive) position when rever-
sing
If these operations are at-
tempted, a chime sounds and
the vehicle shifts to the N (Neu-
tral) position.
P (Park):
CAUTION
. To prevent transmission damage,
use the P (Park) position only
when the vehicle is completely
stopped.
. Do not slide the shift lever while
pushing the park button. This
may damage the shift control
system. Use this position when the vehicle is
parked or starting the engine. Always
make sure that the vehicle is completely
stopped before pushing the park button
to engage the P (Park) position. For
maximum safety, the brake pedal must
be depressed before engaging the P
(Park) position. Use this position together
with the electronic parking brake. When
parking on a hill, first depress the brake
pedal, apply the electronic parking brake
and then engage the P (Park) position.
The parking lock should not be used as a
brake when parking. In order to secure
the vehicle, always apply the electronic
parking brake in addition to the parking
lock.
In the event of a malfunction of the
vehicle’s electronics, the transmission
may lock in the P (Park) position. Have
the vehicle’s electronics checked immedi-
ately. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
The P (Park) position is automatically
engaged if:
.
You switch off the ignition switch
. You unfasten the driver’s seat belt and
open the driver side door when the
vehicle is stationary or driving at very
low speed and the transmission is in
the D (Drive) position, the R (Reverse)
position or the N position unless the Neutral hold mode is engaged.
CAUTION
To avoid CVT malfunction, it is re-
commended that you manually
place the shift position in the P (Park)
position under the above conditions.
R (Reverse):
CAUTION
To prevent transmission damage,
use the R (Reverse) position only
when the vehicle is completely
stopped.
Use the R (Reverse) position to back up.
Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before selecting the R (Reverse)
position. The brake pedal must be de-
pressed and the shift lever button
pushed to move the shift lever from
the home position to R (Reverse). If the
vehicle is placed in the R (Reverse)
position while the vehicle is moving
forward, the chime will sound and the
vehicle will switch into the N (Neutral)
position.
