NOTICE
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If gauge is over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the en-
gine. (

Operation:
The malfun�ftion indi�fator light will �fome on in
one of two ways:
. Malfun�ftion indi�fator light on steady — An
emission �fontrol system malfun�ftion has
been dete�fted. Che�fk the fuel-filler �fap. If
the fuel-filler �fap is loose or missing�b tighten
or install the �fap and �fontinue to drive the
vehi�fle. The
light should turn off after a
few driving trips. If thelight does not
turn off after a few driving trips�b have the
vehi�fle inspe�fted by a GT-R �fertified
NISSAN dealer. You do not need to have
your vehi�fle towed to the dealer.
. Malfun�ftion indi�fator light blinking — An
engine misfire has been dete�fted whi�fh may
damage the emission �fontrol system.
To redu�fe or avoid emission �fontrol system
damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH
(72 km/h) . 2) Avoid hard a�f�feleration or de�feleration.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible�b redu�fe the amount of �fargo

The malfun�ftion indi�fator light may stop
blinking and remain on.
Have the vehi�fle inspe�fted by a GT-R
�fertified NISSAN dealer. You do not need
to have your vehi�fle towed to the dealer.
NOTICE
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.
