automatic transmission fluid NISSAN ALTIMA COUPE 2009 D32 / 4.G Quick Reference Guide

CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) (if so equipped)
The CVT does not produce a gear change sen-
sation like traditional automatic transmissions.
 The transmission in your vehicle requires a spe-
cial fluid available only at your NISSAN dealer.
No other fluid will meet the exact requirements
of the CVT.
MANUAL SHIFT MODE
 When the shift selector is shifted from D (Drive)
to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters
the manual shift mode.
 Inthe manual shiftmode, shiftrange isdis-
played on the position indicator in the meter.
 When shifting up, move the shift selector to the
+ (up) side. (Shifts to higher range.)
 When shifting down, move the shift selector 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 to the D (Drive) position.
The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.
