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
case of emergency section of this manual.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer or a professional towing service.
To move the shift lever, complete the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Push the ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Using a protective cloth on the tip of a
small (1/8 inch or 3 mm) flat-head
screwdriver, remove the shift lock re-
lease cover.
If available, a plastic trim tool can also
be used.
4. Insert the rod from the spare tire tool kit
into the shift lock release slot and push
in at an angle (about 45°). A small screw-
driver or small trim tool may also be
used.
For additional information, refer to
“NISSAN Intelligent Key®” in the “Pre-
driving checks and adjustments” sec-
tion of this manual.
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 posi-
tion. Now the vehicle may be moved to
the desired location.
If the shift lever cannot be moved out of P
(Park), have the transmission checked as
soon as possible. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
CAUTION
Make sure to take extra care during the
removal of the shift lock cap as this
part is easily damaged.
WARNING
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position while the engine is
running and the brake pedal is de-
pressed, the stop lights may not work.
Malfunctioning stop lights could cause
an accident injuring yourself and oth-
ers.
