10. If the child restraint is installed in the frontpassenger seat, place the ignition switch in
the ON position. The front passenger air bag
status light
should illuminate. If this light
is not illuminated, see ªFront passenger air
bag and status lightº in this section. Move
the child restraint to another seating
position. It is recommended you have the
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt is fully retracted, the ALR mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled.

Installing top tether strapGUID-041CEB19-401F-4852-AB4A-A6334F8DC203The child restraint top tether strap must be used
when installing the child restraint with the seat
belts.
First, secure the child restraint with the seat belt.
1. Flip up the anchor cover from the anchor point which is located directly behind the
child restraint.
2. Position the top tether strap over the top of the seatback.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point on the rear parcel shelf.
4. Refer to the appropriate child restraint
installation procedure steps earlier in this section before tightening the tether strap.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap, it is recommended you
consult a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for
details.
BOOSTER SEATSGUID-3F8B846F-53D4-49EA-BFA5-1D1D43874EAA
Precautions on booster seatsGUID-9892AB26-BD80-4EA4-82A9-02C71645C65B
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child being
injured in a sudden stop or collision
greatly increases:
. Make sure the shoulder portion of
the belt is away from the child's face
and neck and the lap portion of the
belt does not cross the stomach.
. Make sure the shoulder belt is not
behind the child or under the child's
arm.
. A booster seat must only be in-
stalled in a seating position that has
a lap/shoulder belt.

1-42Safety Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
however, if the occupant does not sit in the seat
properly (for example, by not sitting upright, by
sitting on an edge of the seat, or by otherwise
being out of position) , this could cause the
sensor to turn the air bag OFF. Always be sure
to be seated and wearing the seat belt properly
for the most effective protection by the seat belt
and supplemental air bag.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil-
dren be properly restrained in a rear seat.
NISSAN also recommends that appropriate
child restraints and booster seats be properly
installed in a rear seat. If this is not possible, the
occupant classification sensor is designed to
operate as described above to turn the front
passenger air bag OFF for specified child
restraints. Failing to properly secure child
restraints and to use the Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode)
may allow the restraint to tip or move in an
accident or sudden stop. This can also result in
the passenger air bag inflating in a crash instead
of being OFF. (
ªChild restraintsº page 1-
16)
If the front passenger seat is not occupied, the
passenger air bag is designed not to inflate in a
crash. However, heavy objects placed on the
seat could result in air bag inflation, because of
the object being detected by the occupant classification sensor. Other conditions could
also result in air bag inflation, such as if a child is
standing on the seat, or if two children are on the
seat, contrary to the instructions in this manual.
Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated and restrained properly.
Using the passenger air bag status light, you can
monitor when the front passenger air bag is
automatically turned OFF with the seat occu-
pied. The light will not illuminate when the front
passenger seat is unoccupied.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the
passenger air bag status light is illuminated
(indicating that the air bag is OFF) , it could be
that the person is a small adult, or is not sitting
on the seat properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the front seat,
the passenger air bag status light may or may
not be illuminated, depending on the size of the
child and the type of child restraint being used. If
the passenger air bag status light is not
illuminated (indicating that the air bag might
inflate in a crash) , it could be that the child
restraint or seat belt is not being used properly.
Make sure that the child restraint is installed
properly, the seat belt is used properly and the
occupant is positioned properly. If the passen-
ger air bag status light is still not illuminated,
reposition the occupant or child restraint in arear seat.
If the passenger air bag status light will not
illuminate even though you believe that the child
restraint, the seat belts and the occupant are
properly positioned, the system may be sensing
an unoccupied seat (in which case the air bag is
OFF) . Your GT-R certified NISSAN dealer can
check that the system is OFF by using a special
tool. However, until you have confirmed with
your dealer that your air bag is working properly,
reposition the occupant or child restraint in a
rear seat.
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System and
passenger air bag status light will take a few
seconds to register a change in the passenger
seat status. However, if the seat becomes
unoccupied, the air bag status light will remain
off.
If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light
, located in the meter and gauges area
will blink. It is recommended you have the
system checked by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.

Ð blinks rapidly (about twice asecond):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. The driving
mode will change to RWD to
prevent the AWD system from
malfunctioning. If the warning
light turns off, you can drive
again. This does not indicate
that there is a malfunction.
Ð blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. Check that
all tire sizes are the same as
that specified on the Tire and
Loading Information label lo-
cated in the driver's door open-
ing, tire pressure is correct and
tires are not worn. (
ªTire
and loading information labelº
page 9-13)
If the tire pressure is insuffi-
cient, fill with nitrogen gas. It is
recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
about filling with nitrogen gas.
If nitrogen gas is not available,
compressed air may be safely used under normal driving con-
ditions. However, NISSAN re-
commends refilling with
nitrogen gas for maximum tire
performance.
. If the warning light is still on after
the above operations, have your
vehicle checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.

OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TRUNK
GUID-65C1E9C7-D2DB-4A24-AD4B-3F102183F9DDWhen opening the trunk, first unlock it then lift
up the trunk lid so that it is fully open.
When closing the trunk, lower the trunk lid and
press it until it is securely locked in place. The
strap
*A(except for carbon trunk lid models) or
the handle
*B(for carbon trunk lid models) can
be used when the trunk lid is dirty.
NOTICE
. Open and close the trunk without
grasping the rear spoiler. Grasping
the rear spoiler to open or close the
trunk may damage the spoiler.
. Do not leave the key inside the
trunk.
NOTE:
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being accidentally locked in the trunk,
lockout protection is equipped with the
Intelligent Key system. When the trunk
lid is closed with the Intelligent Key
inside the trunk, the outside buzzer will
sound and the trunk will open. .
The trunk of this vehicle is slightly
more difficult to close than an ordinary
vehicle (particularly when the vehicle is
new) . This is because the trunk rigidity
has been increased to handle the high
load on the rear spoiler during vehicle
operation. This does not indicate that
there is a malfunction. Check that the
trunk is securely locked.GPC0053
