This easy-to-use Quick Reference Guide is intended to help you more fully
appreciate some of the unique features and functions of your new vehicle.
However, it is not intended to replace your Owner’s Manual. The Owner’s
Manual contains more detailed information to help you better understand the
important safety warnings, features, operation, and maintenance of your
vehicle.

ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (eCVT)
 The eCVT does not produce a gear change sensa-
tion like traditional automatic transmissions.
 Most driving conditions requiredrivinginD(Drive)
range. TheB(Brake) rangecanincrease engine
braking that can be used on long downhill descents.
It can also increase the rate of high voltage battery
charging for short periods of time.
NOTE: Withthetransmission inthe B(Brake) position
and your footoffthe accelerator pedal,engine braking
will be applied.
 When driving in heavy traffic, operate the vehicle in
the D(Drive) position toprevent thehigh voltage
battery from being discharged.
 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 eCVT.
HOMELINK  UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped)
SYSTEM OPERATING TIPS
 Garage doors, electrical gates, entry doors, etc. will be activated during programming.
To avoid injury, make sure that people and objects are clear of all doors or gates during
programming. Yourvehicle’s engineshouldbeturned offwhile programming the
HomeLink Transceiver.
 To program your HomeLink Transceiver to operate a garage door, gate, or entry door
opener, home or office lighting, you need to be at the same location as the device.
NOTE: Garage dooropeners (manufactured after1996) have“rolling codepro-
tection”. Toprogram agarage dooropener equipped with“rolling codeprotec-
tion”, you will need to use a ladder to get up to the garage door opener motor to
be able to access the “smart or learn” program button.
