WARNING
.The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. On
hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode
for long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the heater and air
conditioner system.
NOTE:
. Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air condi-
tioner unit. Odor can enter the passen-
ger compartment through the vents. .
When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.

the passenger's side temperature control,
push the DUAL zone control button.
Heating (A/C OFF):
GUID-E22DEED8-E349-45C2-B1F1-0C9BCF3B8FB9The air conditioner does not activate in this
mode. Only use this mode when you need to
heat the vehicle.
1. Push the AUTO button on. (The indicator light on the button will illuminate.)
2. If the indicator light on the A/C button is turned on, push the A/C button. (The
indicator light will turn off.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial on the driver's side to set the desired temperature.
.The temperature of the passenger com-
partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution and fan speed
are also controlled automatically.
.Do not set the temperature lower than
the outside air temperature or the system
may not work properly.
.Not recommended if windows fog up.
4. You can individually set driver's and front passenger's side temperature using each
temperature control dial. When the DUAL
zone control button is pushed or passen-
ger's side temperature control dial is turned,
the DUAL indicator light will come on. To turn off the passenger's side temperature
control, push the DUAL zone control button.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging:
GUID-E22DEED8-E349-45C2-B1F1-0C9BCF3B8FB91. Push thefront defroster button on. (The
indicator light on the button will come on.)
2. Turn the temperature control dial on the driver's side to set the desired temperature.
.To quickly remove ice from the outside of
the windows, use the
fan speed
control button to set the fan speed to
maximum.
.As soon as possible after the windshield
is clean, push the AUTO button to return
to the automatic mode.
When the
front defroster button is pushed,
the air conditioner will automatically be turned
on at outside temperatures above 368F (28C) to
defrost the windshield, and the air recirculation
mode will automatically be turned off. Outside
air is drawn into the passenger compartment to
improve the defrosting performance.

SATELLITE ANTENNAGUID-72FC56D7-A2DD-4B3D-8DAE-58BAF3051BDFThe satellite antenna*Ais located on the rear
part of the vehicle roof.
GUID-40B9A06B-2757-4357-A886-E847EE8FC74DWhen installing a car phone or a CB radio in
your vehicle, be sure to observe the following
cautions, otherwise the new equipment may
adversely affect the electronic control modules
and electronic control system harness.
WARNING
. A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohi-
bit the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if
so equipped) is highly recom-
mended. Exercise extreme caution
at all times so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
. If you are unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle.
CAUTION
.Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.
. Keep the antenna wire more than 8
in (20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harness. Do not
route the antenna wire next to any
harness.
. Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
. Connect the ground wire from the
CB radio chassis to the body.
. For details, it is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer or GT-R certi-
fied NISSAN dealer.

* The selected mode is maintained even if the
shift lever is moved between
&Aand&Mposition.
NOTICE
. ªESC (Electronic Stability Control)
OFFº indicated on the VDC setup
switch stands for ªVDC OFFº.

TransmissionGUID-421BE665-A62F-4871-818B-5E3752C424C8The transmission mode differs depending on the shift lever position,&Aor&M.
&Aposition:GUID-E22DEED8-E349-45C2-B1F1-0C9BCF3B8FB9
Set up modeFeatures
.In addition to the normal mode functions, this mode allows you to achieve higher
engine speed, greater powertrain torque and engine braking.
.With the VDC switch in R mode, the R mode start function can be used. (ªR
mode start functionº page 5-32)
.When the R mode is selected, the maximum speed is lower than the one in the
normal mode.
Normal (light is off)
.For everyday and performance driving, an appropriate gear position is automatically
selected.
.For long distance driving, this mode helps improve fuel economy by reducing engine
output compared to the normal mode.
.The engine response to accelerator operation changes to be less sensitive to pedal
movement than the normal mode. The engine speed does not change as quickly for
small accelerator pedal position changes.
.This mode controls powertrain torque on snowy roads and slippery surfaces making
starting and driving easier.
.When the SAVE mode is selected, the maximum speed is lower than the one in the
normal mode.

Set up modeFeatures
.This mode allows you to shift gears quickly and directly..This mode will not allow the transmission to automatically upshift even when the
engine speed reaches the red zone. Do not rev the engine into the red zone.
.With the VDC switch in R mode, the R mode start function can be used. (ªR
mode start functionº page 5-32)
Normal (light is off)
.For everyday and performance driving, any gear position can be selected..This mode will allow the transmission to automatically upshift even when the engine
speed is about to reach the red zone.
.For long distance highway driving, this mode improves fuel economy by reducing
engine output compared to the normal mode.
.The engine response to accelerator operation changes to be less sensitive to pedal
movement than the normal mode. The engine speed does not change as quickly for
small accelerator pedal position changes.
.This mode controls powertrain torque on snowy roads and slippery surfaces making
starting and driving easier.
.This mode allows the transmission to automatically upshift even when the engine
speed is about to reach the red zone.
.When the SAVE mode is selected, the maximum speed is lower than the one in the
normal mode.
NOTICE
. When the engine speed approaches
the red zone, shift to a higher gear
or reduce the engine speed. Operat-
ing the engine in the red zone may
cause serious engine damage.
. Quickest shifting in the R mode with
the transmission in the
&Mposition
is available when the engine speed
is high. However, the transmission
may shift more slowly when the
engine speed is low.

SuspensionGUID-AC94CAAD-1DDB-4D2F-B7B7-302FB96F4D19
Set up modeFeatures
.The damping force of the shock absorbers is set for maximum vehicle performance..Riding comfort becomes harder.
Normal (light is off)
.The damping force of the shock absorbers is variably adjusted for everyday driving
or maximum vehicle performance.
.The damping force of the shock absorbers is variably adjusted for more comfortable
driving. Movement of the vehicle body is larger than the normal and R modes.
NOTICE
While maximizing vehicle performance,
shock absorber control may automati-
cally be returned to the normal mode. If
the R mode or the COMF mode is
selected in the case above, the suspen-
sion setup switch indicator may turn off.
Operate the suspension setup switch to
the R mode or the COMF mode and
check to make sure the indicator illu-
minates. If the indicator does not illu-
minate, it is recommended you have the
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
