check engine light NISSAN ROGUE 2021 Owner´s Manual

5-24Starting and driving
1M(1st):
Use this position when climbing steep
hills slowly or driving slowly through deep
snow, or for maximum engine braking on
steep downhill grades.
. Remember not to drive at high speeds
for extended periods of time in lower
than 8th gear. This reduces fuel econ-
omy.
. Pulling the same paddle shifter twice
will shift the ranges in succession.
However, if this motion is rapidly done,
the second shifting may not be com-
pleted properly.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission may not shift to the se-
lected gear. This helps maintain
driving performance and reduces
the chance of vehicle damage or
loss of control.
. When this situation occurs, the Con-
tinuously Variable Transmission
(CVT) position indicator will blink
and the chime will sound.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission may shift up automatically
to a higher range than selected if the
engine speed is too high. When the
vehicle speed decreases, the trans-
mission automatically shifts down
and shifts to 1st gear before the
vehicle comes to a stop. .
CVT operation is limited to automatic
drive mode when CVT fluid tempera-
ture is extremely low even if manual
shift mode is selected. This is not a
malfunction. When CVT fluid warms
up, manual shift mode can be se-
lected.
. When the CVT fluid temperature is
high, the shift range may upshift in
lower rpm than usual. This is not a
malfunction.
Accelerator downshift - in D (Drive)
position -
For passing or climbing hills, depress the
accelerator pedal to the floor. This shifts
the transmission down into a lower gear,
depending on the vehicle speed.
High fluid temperature protection
mode
This transmission has a high fluid tem-
perature protection mode. If the fluid
temperature becomes too high, (for ex-
ample, when climbing steep grades in
high temperatures with heavy loads, such
as when towing a trailer), engine power
and, under some conditions, vehicle
speed will be decreased automatically to
reduce the chance of transmission da-
mage. Vehicle speed can be controlled
with the accelerator pedal, but the engine and vehicle speed may be limited.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, the
Continuously Variable Transmission will
not be shifted into the selected driving
position.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme
conditions, such as excessive wheel
spinning and subsequent hard braking,
the fail-safe system may be activated.
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
may come on to indicate the fail-safe
mode is activated. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL)” (P.2-19). This will occur even
if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, place the ignition
switch in the OFF position and wait for
10 seconds. Then place the ignition
switch back in the ON position. The
vehicle should return to its normal
operating condition. (The MIL may be
illuminated even when the vehicle has
returned to its normal operating condi-
tion.) If it does not return to its normal
operating condition, have the transmis-
sion checked and repaired, if necessary,
by a NISSAN dealer.

5-26Starting and driving
.When the shift position is placed in the
P (Park) position.
. When the driver’s door is opened.
. When the driver’s seat belt is unfas-
tened.
The electronic parking brake is automati-
cally released as soon as the vehicle
starts while the accelerator pedal is
depressed under the following condi-
tions.
. While the engine is running.
. When the shift position is in the D
(Drive) or R (Reverse) position.
. When the driver’s door is closed.
The electronic parking brake is automati-
cally released within 5 seconds after the
shift position is placed in the D (Drive) or R
(Reverse) position even if the driver’s door
is opened. Be sure to close the door
before starting the vehicle.
WARNING
. When the automatic brake hold
function is activated, the electro-
nic parking brake will not be
automatically applied when the
engine is stopped without using
the ignition switch (for example,
by engine stalling). Without the vehicle stationary,
the electronic parking brake will
not be automatically applied
even if the engine is turned off
with the ignition switch.
. Before leaving the vehicle, place
the shift position in the P (Park)
position and check that the elec-
tronic parking brake warning
light is illuminated to confirm
that the electronic parking brake
is applied. The electronic parking
brake warning light will remain
on for a period of time after the
driver’s door is locked.
CAUTION
When parking in an area where the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C), the electronic parking brake, if
applied, may freeze in place and may
be difficult to release.
For safe parking, it is recommended
that you place the shift position in
the P (Park) position and securely
block the wheels. NOTE:
.
To keep the electronic parking brake
released after the engine is turned
off, place the ignition switch in the
OFF position, depress the brake
pedal and push down the parking
brake switch before opening the
driver’s door.
. If a malfunction occurs in the elec-
tronic parking brake system (for
example, due to battery discharge),
it is recommended to contact a
NISSAN dealer.
. Under the following conditions, the
electronic parking brake will auto-
matically be applied and the brake
force of the automatic brake hold
will be released.
—The braking force is applied by
the automatic brake hold function
for 3 minutes or longer.
— The vehicle is placed in the P
(Park) position.
— The driver’s seat belt is unfas-
tened.
— The driver’s door is opened.
— The ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position.
— The electronic parking brake is
applied manually.

—If a malfunction occurs in the
automatic brake hold function.
. Make sure that the electronic park-
ing brake system warning light (yel-
low) is OFF before starting the
vehicle.
MANUAL OPERATION
To apply: When the vehicle is stopped,
pull the parking brake switchup. (The
electronic parking brake will apply even if
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.) The indicator light
on the
switch and the electronic parking brake
warning light PARK or
(red) will
illuminate.
To release: With the ignition switch in the
ON position, depress the brake pedal and
push the parking brake switch down
.
The indicator lightand the electronic
parking brake warning light (red) will turn
off.
Before driving, check that the electronic
parking brake warning light (red) turns
off. For additional information, see “Warn-
ing lights, indicator lights and audible
reminders” (P.2-13).
NOTE:
. While the electronic parking brake is
applied or released, an operating
sound is heard from the lower side
of the rear seat. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
. When the electronic parking brake is
frequently applied and released in a
short period of time, the electronic
parking brake system warning light
(yellow) may blink and the electronic
parking brake may not operate in
order to prevent the electronic park-
ing brake system from overheating.
If this occurs, operate the parking
brake switch again after waiting
approximately 1 minute.
. If the electronic parking brake must
be applied while driving in an emer-
gency, pull up and hold the parking
brake switch. When you release the
parking brake switch, the electronic
parking brake will be released.
. While pulling up the parking brake
switch during driving, the electronic
parking brake is applied and a chime
sounds. The electronic parking
brake warning light (red) and the
indicator light on the parking brake
switch illuminate. This does not in-
dicate a malfunction. The electronic
parking brake warning light (red)
and the indicator light on the park-
ing brake switch will turn off when
the electronic parking brake is re-
leased. .
When pulling the parking brake
switch up with the ignition switch
in the OFF position, the indicator
light on the parking brake switch
will continue to illuminate for a short
period of time.
When towing a trailer
Depending on the weight of the vehicle
and trailer and the steepness of the slope,
there may be a tendency for the vehicle
to move backwards when starting from a
standstill. When this occurs, you can use
the parking brake switch in the same way
as a conventional lever type parking
brake.
Before starting on sloping roads when
towing a trailer, be sure to read the
following to prevent the vehicle from
moving backward unintentionally.
.Release the parking brake switch as
soon as the engine is delivering en-
ough torque to the wheels.
