∙ When this situation occurs, the Con-
tinuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
position indicator light will blink and
the chime will sound.
∙ In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission may shift up automatically to
a higher range than selected if the
engine speed is too high. When the
vehicle speed decreases, the trans-
mission automatically shifts down
and shifts to 1st gear before the ve-
hicle comes to a stop.
∙ CVT operation is limited to automatic
drive mode when CVT fluid tempera-
ture is extremely low even if manual
shift mode is selected. This is not a mal-
function. When CVT fluid warms up,
manual mode can be selected.
∙ When the CVT fluid temperature is high,
the shift range may upshift in lower
rpm than usual. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
Shift lock release
If the battery charge is low or discharged,
the shift lever may not be moved from the
P (Park) position even with the brake pedal
depressed and the shift lever button
pressed.
It will be necessary to jump start or have
your battery charged. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Jump starting” in the “In

lowing procedure:
1. Push the ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
2. Apply the parking brake.

4. Insert the small screwdriver in the shift
lock release slot and push down.
5. Move the shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position while holding down the shift
lock release.
6. Push the ignition switch to the ON po-
sition to unlock the steering wheel.
Now the vehicle may be moved to the

If the shift lever cannot be moved out of P

soon as possible. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
