High fluidtemperature protectionmode
GUID-92F6 203D-4431 -412E-BD73-BE0106E 26143
This transmission hasahigh fluidtemperature protec-
tion mode. Ifthe fluid temperature becomestoohigh
(for example, whenclimbing steepgrades inhigh
temperature withheavy loads, suchaswhen towing a
trailer) ,engine powerand,under someconditions,
vehicle speedwillbedecreased automatically to
reduce thechance oftransmission damage.Vehicle
speed canbecontrolled withtheaccelerator pedal,
but engine andvehicle speedmaybelimited.
Fail-safe
GUID-4C5CA0 11-BE46-48EA-A16F-D6 F3A9BF72B8
When thefail-safe operation occurs,theCVT willnot
be shifted tothe selected drivingposition.
If the vehicle isdriven underextreme conditions,
such asexcessive wheelspinning andsubse-
quent hardbraking, thefail-safe systemmaybe
activated. Thiswilloccur evenifall electrical
circuits arefunctioning properly.Inthis case,
place theignition switchinthe ªOFFº position
and wait for10seconds. Thenturntheignition
switch backtothe ªONº position. Thevehicle
should returntoits normal operating condition.
If itdoes notreturn toits normal operating
condition, haveaNISSAN dealercheckthe
transmission andrepair itifnecessary.
WARNING:
When thefail-safe operation occurs,vehicle
speed maybegradually reduced.Thereduced
speed maybelower thanother traffic,which
could increase thechance ofacollision. Be
