XTRONIC CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (CV T) (if so equipped)
 The Xtronic CVT does not produce a gear
change sensation like traditional automatic
transmissions.
 The transmission in your vehicle requires a
special fluid available only at your NISSAN
dealer. No other fluid will meet the exact
requirements of the new Xtronic CVT.
MANUAL SHIFT MODE
 When the shift selector lever is shifted from D
(Drive) to the manual shift gate, the
transmission enters the manual shift mode.
 In the manual shift mode, shift range is
displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
 When shifting up, move the shift selector lever to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher
range.)
 When shifting down, move the shift selector lever to the - (down) side. (Shifts to
lower range.)
 In manual shift mode, the transmission automatically shifts down to M1 (first) before
the vehicle comes to a stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift to the
desired range.
 When canceling the manual shift mode, return the shift selector lever to the D (Drive)
position. The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.
6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION
(if so equipped)
LOCK OUT
 In 6-speed manual transmission equipped
vehicles, the shift lever is equipped with
a Reverse lock-out feature that prevents
accidental selection of Reverse (instead of 1st
gear).
SHIFTING TO REVERSE
 Lift up on the collar just below the shift knob,
then move it to the left and up into Reverse.
