2015 NISSAN GT-R warning

6-4In case of emergency
NOTE:
.You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the multi function display. See
the separate Multi Function Display
Owner’s Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. Contact
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for
information on filling the tires with
nitrogen.
. If nitrogen is not available, compressed
air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However, NISSAN
recommends refilling with nitrogen for
maximum tire performance.
RUN-FLAT TIRES
Run-flat tires are those tires that can be used
te�fporarily if they are punctured. �b“Run-flat
tires” page 8-39)
Also, see the tire safety infor�fation in the
Warranty Infor�fation Booklet.
WARNING
. 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.
Also, driving a long distance at high
speeds may damage the tires.
. Do not drive at speeds above 50
MPH (80 km/h) and do not drive
more than 50 miles (80 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual
distance the vehicle can be driven
on a flat tire depends on outside
temperature, vehicle load, road con-
ditions and other factors.
. Drive safely at reduced speeds.
Avoid hard cornering or braking,
which may cause you to lose control
of the vehicle.
NOTICE
.Never install tire chains on a punc-
tured run-flat tire, as this could
damage your vehicle.
. Avoid driving over any projection or
pothole, as the clearance between
the vehicle and the ground is smal-
ler than normal.
. Do not enter an automated car wash
with a punctured run-flat tire.
. Have the punctured tire replaced by
your GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
as soon as possible, as the tire’s
performance capability is reduced.
If you have a flat tire and have to stop the
vehicle, follow the instructions below.
1. Safely �fove the vehicle off the road and away fro�f traffic.
2. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
3. Park on a level surface and apply the parking brake. Move the shift lever to the
&Pposition.
4. Turn off the engine.
5. Raise the hood to warn other traffic, and to signal professional road assistance person-
nel that you need assistance.

6. Have all passengers get out of the vehiclean\f stan\f in a safe place, away fro\b traffic
an\f clear of the vehicle.

WARNING
.Do not continue to drive if your
vehicle overheats. Doing so could
cause engine damage or a vehicle
fire.
. To avoid the danger of being
scalded, never remove the radiator
filler cap and the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is still hot.
When the cap is removed, pressur-
ized hot water will spurt out, possi-
bly causing serious injury.
. Do not open the hood if steam is
coming out.
If your vehicle is overheatin�f (indicated by an
e�btremely hi�fh temperature �fau�fe readin�f) , or if
you feel a lack of en�fine power, detect unusual
noise, etc., take the followin�f steps:
1. Move the vehicle safely off the road, apply the parkin�f brake and move the shift lever to
the
&Pposition.
Do not stop the engine.
2. Turn off the air conditioner. Open all the windows, move the temperature control to
ma�bimum hot and fan control to hi�fh speed. 3. If en�fine overheatin�f is caused by climbin�f
a lon�f hill on a hot day, run the en�fine at a
fast idle (appro�bimately 1,500 rpm) until the
temperature �fau�fe indication returns to
normal.
4. Get out of the vehicle. Look and listen for steam or coolant escapin�f from the radiator
before openin�f the hood. (If steam or
coolant is escapin�f, turn off the en�fine.)
Do not open the hood further until no steam
or coolant can be seen.
5. Open the en�fine hood.
WARNING
If steam or water is coming from the
engine, stand clear to prevent getting
burned.
6. Visually check drive belts for dama�fe or looseness. Also check if the coolin�f fan is
runnin�f. The radiator hoses and radiator
should not leak water. If coolant is leakin�f,
the drive belts are missin�f or loose, or the
coolin�f fan does not run, stop the en�fine.
WARNING
Be careful not to allow your hands, hair,
jewelry or clothing to come into contact
with, or get caught in, engine belts or
the engine cooling fan. The engine
cooling fan can start at any time.
7. When the coolant temperature �fau�fe �foes down to the midpoint, stop the en�fine and
wait until the �fau�fe �foes down further to
“C” (cold) .
8. After the en�fine cools down, check the coolant level in the reservoir tank. Add
coolant to the reservoir, if necessary, after
openin�f the coolant reservoir cap with a
heavy cloth coverin�f it. (
“En�fine cool-
in�f system” pa�fe 8-10)
9. Have your vehicle repaired at the nearest GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.

water-spotted.
. Avoid using tight-napped or rough
cloths, such as washing mitts. Care
must be taken when removing
caked-on dirt or other foreign sub-
stances so the paint surface is not
scratched or damaged.
Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with \flenty of clean
water.
\bnside flanges, seams and folds on the doors,
hatches and hood are \farticularly vulnerable to
the effects of road salt. Therefore, these areas
must be regularly cleaned. Take care that the
drain holes in the lower edge of the door are
o\fen. S\fray water under the body and in the
wheel wells to loosen the dirt and wash away
road salt.
Avoid leaving water s\fots on the \faint surface
by using a dam\f chamois to dry the vehicle.WAXING
Regular waxing \frotects the \faint surface and
hel\fs retain new vehicle a\f\fearance. Polishing
is recommended to remove built-u\f wax residue
and to avoid a weathered a\f\fearance before
rea\f\flying wax.
A GT-R certified N\bSSAN dealer can assist you
in choosing the \fro\fer \froduct.
. Wax your vehicle only after a thorough
washing. Follow the instructions su\f\flied
with the wax.
. Do not use a wax containing any abrasives,
cutting com\founds or cleaners that may
damage the vehicle finish.
Machine com\found or aggressive \folishing on a
base coat/clear coat \faint finish may dull the
finish or leave swirl marks.
WARNING
Do not use wax on the glass, rubber or
plastic parts around the glass or door.
This may prevent the window operation
or cause poor visibility and the wax
cannot be coated uniformly.
NOTICE
. Do not use compound agents on
clear-coated dry carbon fiber parts
(such as the NISMO model’s bum-
per, side sill protector, rear spoiler,
etc.) .
. Do not use any chemical agents
(wax, coating agent, compound
agent, etc.) on matte-painted dry
carbon fiber parts (such as the rear
diffuser, a rear spoiler that is of
specifications other than NISMO,
etc.) .
REMOVING SPOTS
Remove tar and oil s\fots, industrial dust,
insects, and tree sa\f as quickly as \fossible
from the \faint surface to avoid lasting damage
or staining. S\fecial cleaning \froducts are
available at a GT-R certified N\bSSAN dealer or
any automotive accessory stores.

Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, \flastic \farts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft bristled brush. \bi\fe the vinyl and
leather surfaces with a clean, soft cloth dam-
\fened in mild soa\f solution, then wi\fe clean
with a dry soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the a\f\fearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric \frotector, read the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Some fabric
\frotectors contain chemicals that may stain or
bleach the seat material.
Use a cloth dam\fened only with water, to clean
the meter and gauge lens.
WARNING
Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classifica-
tion sensor. This can also affect the
operation of the air bag system and
result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION
.Never use benzine, thinner, or any
similar material.
. For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-
pened with water. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or
any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent.
They will scratch or cause discolora-
tion to the lens.
. Do not spray any liquid such as
water on the meter lens. Spraying
liquid may cause the system to
malfunction.
NOTICE
.Small dirt particles can be abrasive
and damaging to the leather sur-
faces and should be removed
promptly. Do not use saddle soap,
car waxes, polishes, oils, cleaning
fluids, solvents, detergents or am-
monia-based cleaners as they may
damage the leather’s natural finish. .
Never use fabric protectors unless
recommended by the manufacturer.
. Do not use glass or plastic cleaner
on meter or gauge lens covers. It
may damage the lens cover.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could
affect the vehicle interior. If an air freshener is
used, take the following \frecautions:
.Hanging-ty\fe air fresheners can cause
\fermanent discoloration when they contact
vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air
freshener in a location that allows it to hang
free and not contact an interior surface.
. Liquid-ty\fe air fresheners ty\fically cli\f on
the vents. These \froducts can cause
immediate damage and discoloration when
s\filled on interior surfaces.
