.In addition to t�fe normal mode function�b t�fis mode adjusts front and rear w�feel
power distribution to improve �fandling.
.Wit�f t�fe transmission switc�f in R mode�b t�fe R mode start function can be used.
(“R mode start function” page 5-32)
Normal (lig�ft is off)
.T�fis mode is for use in a broad range of driving conditions�b for routine driving during
fair to rainy weat�fer�b as well as for driving on road surfaces t�fat are slippery due to
snow or ice.
Make sure to use t�fis mode for everyday driving.
.Temporary mode t�fat can be used to free if it is stuck in snow or mud
(Wit�f t�fe transmission switc�f in SAVE mode�b freeing t�fe ve�ficle become easier.)
NOTE:
Always make sure the VDC is ON before driving the vehicle by checking that the VDC OFF
indicator lights on the meter and the VDC set-up switch are not illuminated. The GT-R is a
high performance vehicle and the VDC must be on/activated to provide proper powertrain
operation and intended drivability.
WARNING
. The VDC OFF mode should ONLY be
used briefly to help free the vehicle
if stuck in snow or mud by tempora-
rily stopping operation of the VDC
to maintain wheel torque.
. Driving the GT-R with the VDC off
may lead to handling issues related
to steering maneuvers, acceleration,
or deceleration. Moreover, driving
with the VDC off can result in an
inoperative vehicle by causing ser-
ious damage to the powertrain,
including damage to the Transaxle
Assembly including Transfer, Clutch,
Gears, Transaxle case and all of its
components and other drivetrain
component(s) by overheating or ex-
cessive force.
. Damage to the powertrain or any
drivetrain component(s) that occurs
when there is a record in the Vehicle
Status Data Recorder (VSDR) that
the vehicle was driven with VDC off
during the period when the damage
was incurred is excluded from war-
ranty coverage.

certified NISSAN dealer in accordance �fith
specifications for cit�b driving to high perfor-
mance driving.
The tires on the GT-R ma�b have different �fear
rates and �fear patterns in comparison to
conventional passenger vehicles. Contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer to confirm that
the alignment is �fithin specifications.Follo�f these eas�b-to-use Fuel Efficient Driving
Tips to help �bou achieve the most fuel econom�b
from �bour vehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator and brake pedal
application.
.Avoid rapid starts and stops..Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application �fhenever possible.
.Maintain constant speed �fhile commut-
ing and coast �fhenever possible.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.Look ahead to tr�b and anticipate and
minimize stops.
.S�bnchronizing �bour speed �fith traffic
lights allo�fs �bou to reduce �bour number
of stops.
.Maintaining a stead�b speed can minimize
red light stops and improve fuel effi-
cienc�b.
3. Use air conditioning (A/C) at higher vehicle speeds.
.Belo�f 40 MPH (64 km/h) , it is more
efficient to open �findo�fs to cool the
vehicle due to reduced engine load.
.Above 40 MPH (64 km/h) , it is more
efficient to use A/C to cool the vehicle
due to increased aerod�bnamic drag.
.Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
�fhen the A/C is on reduces cooling load.
4. Drive at economical speeds and distances.
.Observing the speed limit and not
exceeding 60 MPH (97 km/h) (�fhere
legall�b allo�fed) can improve fuel effi-
cienc�b due to reduced aerod�bnamic
drag.
.Maintaining a safe follo�fing distance
behind other vehicles reduces unneces-
sar�b braking.
.Safel�b monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
.Select a gear range suitable to road
conditions.
5. Use cruise control.
.Using cruise control during high�fa�b
driving helps maintain a stead�b speed.
.Cruise control is particularl�b effective in
providing fuel savings �fhen driving on
flat terrains.
6. Plan for the shortest route.
.Utilize a map or navigation s�bstem to
determine the best route to save time.
FUEL EFFICIENT DRIVING TIPS

shock absorbers, struts, springs,
stabilizer bars, bushings and
wheels are not NISSAN approved
or are extremely deteriorated, the
VDC system may not operate prop-
erly. This could adversely affect
vehicle handling performance, and
the VDC warning light
may
illuminate.
. If brake related parts such as brake
pads, rotors and calipers are not
standard equipment or are extre-
mely deteriorated, the VDC system
may not operate properly and the
VDC warning light
may illumi-
nate.
. If engine control related parts are
not standard equipment or are ex-
tremely deteriorated, the VDC warn-
ing light
may illuminate.
. When driving on extremely inclined
surfaces such as higher banked
corners, the VDC system may not
operate properly and the VDC warn-
ing light
may illuminate. Do not
drive on these types of roads.
. When driving on an unstable sur-
face such as a turntable, ferry, elevator or ramp, the VDC warning
light
may illuminate. This is not
a malfunction. Restart the engine
after driving onto a stable surface.
. If wheels or tires other than the
those recommended are used, the
VDC system may not operate prop-
erly and the VDC warning light
may illuminate.
. The VDC system is not a substitute
for winter tires or tire chains on a
snow covered road.
NOTE:
. Always make sure the VDC is ON
before driving the vehicle by checking
that the VDC OFF indicator lights on
the meter and the VDC set-up switch
are not illuminated.
The GT-R is a high performance vehicle
and the VDC must be on/activated to
provide proper powertrain operation
and intended drivability.

road.
. Do not use the hazard warning
flashers while moving on the high-
way unless unusual circumstances
force you to drive so slowly that
your vehicle might become a hazard
to other traffic.

“Battery” page 8-17)
WARNING
. If done incorrectly, jump starting
can lead to a battery explosion,
resulting in severe injury or death.
It could also damage your vehicle.
. Explosive hydrogen gas is always
present in the vicinity of the battery.
Keep all sparks and flames away
from the battery.
. Do not allow battery fluid to come
into contact with eyes, skin, clothing
or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is
a corrosive sulphuric acid solution
which can cause severe burns. If the
fluid should come into contact with
anything, immediately flush the con-
tacted area with water.
. Keep the battery out of the reach of
children.
. The booster battery must be rated at
12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.
. Whenever working on or near a
battery, always wear suitable eye
protectors (for example, goggles or
industrial safety spectacles) and
