NOTE:
. This vehicle includes spark plugs that
are designed for maximum perfor-
mance. If the start time becomes long-
er, the plugs may be fouled, making the
engine difficult to start. If this occurs,
start the engine using the procedure
described in this section.
. A click sound may be heard when the
brake pedal is depressed and released.
This is normal.
. A low rattling operating sound may
occur when the engine is started or
stopped. This is because of the trans-
mission gear design, light flywheel and
dry sump lubrication system used in
this transmission. This does not indi-
cate that there is a malfunction. This
sound is likely to occur in particular if
the engine is stopped when the tem-
perature of the transmission oil is high.

above 6 MPH (10 km/h) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
Refer to the illustration for approximate zone
coverage areas. As you move closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the tone increases. When
you move even closer to the obstacle, the tone
will sound continuously.
The sensitivity level of the sonar can be adjusted
(higher or lower) in the sonar setting display.

FREEING A FROZEN DOOR LOCKGUID-4DF5BB56-FE66-4AEA-B475-7DC325219BE8To prevent a door lock from freezing, apply
deicer through the key hole. If the lock becomes
frozen, heat the key before inserting it into the
key hole or use the Intelligent Key system.
ANTI-FREEZEGUID-22651E7D-2D1E-4D6B-9748-AC78906815F3In the winter when it is anticipated that the
outside temperature will drop below 328F (08C) ,
check antifreeze to assure proper winter protec-
tion. (

TIRE EQUIPMENTGUID-79A16532-1D2C-4B7E-9B9E-7FC457725F6EThe GT-R summer tires are made from a
specially formulated rubber to maximize the
vehicle's performance capabilities. Performance
of summer tires is substantially reduced when
temperatures are less than 328F (08C) so you
must drive carefully. NISSAN recommends the
use of winter or all-season tires on all four
wheels if you plan to operate your vehicle in
snowy or icy conditions when temperatures are
less than 328F (08C) .
WARNING
Never use summer tires when the
temperature is below
