5-22 Starting and driving
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.
N (Neutral):
Neither the forward nor reverse gear is
engaged. The engine can be started in
this position. You may shift to the N
(Neutral) position and restart a stalled
engine while the vehicle is moving.
You can select this position by holding
the shift lever at this position for 0.5
seconds.
D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward
driving. The CVT changes gears automa-
tically. All forward gears are available. If
the vehicle is placed in the D (Drive)
position while the vehicle is reversing,
the chime will sound and the vehicle will
switch into the N (Neutral) position.
Neutral hold mode function
This function enables you to turn off the
engine with the vehicle in the N (Neutral)
position. While this function is activated,
the vehicle can be moved by pushing with
hand (when car washing) even if the
ignition switch is in the OFF position.
When using this function, release the
electronic parking brake.
WARNING
. Use this function on a level sur-
face only. Failure to do so may
cause the vehicle to move acci-
dentally and could result in a
collision or serious personal in-
jury.
. Do not use this function for a
purpose other than car washing.
. When the ignition switch is placed
in the ON position after activating
this function, depress the brake
pedal to stop the vehicle because
the shift lever is in the N (Neutral)
position.
. If this function is not activated
regardless of proper operation,
transmission may malfunction. It
is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
To activate the Neutral hold mode, per-
form the following operations.
1. Push the ignition switch to start the
engine.
2. Release the electronic parking brake.
3. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
