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
