The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most
driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor.
If maximum engine power is needed to free a
stuck vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The
indicator will illuminate.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn on the system. (See “VEHICLE
DYNAMIC CONTROL (VDC) SYSTEM” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.)

The NISMO models have the following unique
parts on the front, side and rear of the vehicle.
— Front bumper with an aerodynamic splitter
— Side sill extensions
— Rear bumper with an aerodynamic diffuser
— Large-diameter exhaust pipes
These parts are close to the ground and may be
damaged if they contact objects such as curbs,
parking blocks, etc.
CAUTION

possibility of damaging these parts
when:
.driving on bumpy or rutted roads
. entering or exiting parking garages
and driveways
. driving over speed bumps

CAUTION
The approach and departure angles are
small. Reduce vehicle speed when the
vehicle approaches or leaves a steep
hill. Otherwise, the front bumper with
an aerodynamic splitter, rear bumper
with an aerodynamic diffuser and ex-
haust pipes may contact the road sur-
face and be damaged.
