Shift lock release

If the battery is discharged, the shift selector may
not be moved from the P (Park) position even with
the brake pedal depressed.

To move the shift selector, release the shift lock.
The shift selector can be moved to N (Neutral).
However, for models without the NISSAN vehicle
immobilizer system, the steering wheel will be
locked unless the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position. This allows the vehicle to be moved
if the battery is discharged.

To push the shift lock release, complete the fol-
lowing procedure:

1. Turn the ignition key to the LOCK position

and remove the key

2. Apply the parking brake.

3. On vehicles equipped with a column shifter,

tilt the steering wheel down to the lowest
position.

4. Remove the shift lock release cover as

shown.

5. Insert a small screwdriver in the shift lock

release slot and push down.

6. Move the shift selector to the N (Neutral)

position while holding down the shift lock
release.

7. For models without the NISSAN vehicle im-

mobilizer system, turn the key to the ON
position to unlock the steering wheel.

8. Now the vehicle may be moved to the de-

sired location.

If the shift selector cannot be moved out of P
(Park), have a NISSAN dealer check the auto-
matic transmission system as soon as possible.

WARNING

If the shift selector cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position while the engine is
running and the brake pedal is depressed,
the stop lights may not work. Malfunction-
ing stop lights could cause an accident
injuring yourself and others.

Accelerator downshift
— in D position —

For passing or hill climbing, depress the accel-
erator pedal to the floor. This shifts the transmis-
sion down into a lower gear, depending on the
vehicle speed.
