WARNING
.Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning light
is on. Driving could be dangerous. If
you judge it to be safe, drive care-
fully to the nearest service station
for repairs. Otherwise, have your
vehicle towed because driving it
could be dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked at a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not
functioning properly. Turn the engine off and
check the alternator belt. If the belt is loose,
broken, missing or if the light remains on, see a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer immediately.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving if the alternator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Engine oil pressure warning
light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving,
pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine
immediately and call a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
The engine oil pressure warning light is
not designed to indicate a low oil level.
Check the vehicle information display or
use the dipstick to check the oil level.
(
“ENGINE OIL LEVEL DISPLAY” page 2-
11) (
“CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL”
page 8-12)
NOTICE
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Intelligent Key warning light

When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all 4 wheels to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown
on the Tire and Loading Information label
located in the driver’s door opening. The
low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pres-
sure is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to
the recommended pressure, the vehicle
must be driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off
the low tire pressure warning light. Use a
tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure. (
“TIRE PRESSURE MONI-
TORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” page 5-3)
(
“TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)” page 6-2)
Run-flat tire warning:The run-flat tire warning light warns of a flat tire.
If the vehicle is being driven with one or more flat
tires, the warning light will illuminate continu-
ously and a chime will sound for 10 seconds.
The chime will only sound at the first indication
of a flat tire and the warning light will illuminate
continuously. When the Flat tire warning is
activated, have the system reset and the tire
checked and replaced if necessary by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Even if the tire is
inflated to the specified COLD tire pressure, the warning light will continue to illuminate until the
system is reset by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
If you select the tire pressure information in the
multi function display, the LOW PRESSURE
warning message will be displayed. The tire
pressure for each tire will also be displayed.
Refer to the separate Multi Function Display
Owner’s Manual.
Your vehicle can be driven for a limited time on a
flat tire. (
“TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)” page 5-3) (
“TIRE
PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)”
page 6-2)
TPMS malfunction:If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is
pushed ON. The light will remain on after the 1
minute. Have the system checked by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. (

WARNING
. If the light does not illuminate with
the ignition switch pushed ON, have
the vehicle checked by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.
. If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with un-
der-inflated tires may permanently
damage the tires and increase the
likelihood of tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four
tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shownontheTireandLoading
Information label located in the
driver’s door opening to turn the
low tire pressure warning light off. If
the light still illuminates while driv-
ing after adjusting the tire pressure,
a tire may be flat.
. Although you can continue driving
with a punctured run-flat tire, re-
member that vehicle handling sta-
bility is reduced, which could lead to
an accident and personal injury.
