TPMS.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or
aerosol tire sealant into the tires,
as this may cause a malfunction of
the tire pressure sensors.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the touch screen display. See
the separate Multi Function Display
Owner's Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. It is
recommended you contact a GT-R cer-
tified NISSAN dealer for information on
filling the tires with nitrogen.
. If nitrogen is not available, compressed
air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However, NISSAN
recommends refilling with nitrogen for
maximum tire performance.RUN-FLAT TIRESGUID-5496C5A2-F48A-4E72-92DF-C1714EE153C7Run-flat tires are those tires that can be used
temporarily if they are punctured. (
ªRun-flat
tiresº page 8-39)
Also, see the tire safety information in the
Warranty Information Booklet.
WARNING
. Although you can continue driving
with a punctured run-flat tire, re-
member that vehicle handling sta-
bility is reduced, which could lead to
an accident and personal injury.
Also, driving a long distance at high
speeds may damage the tires.
. Do not drive at speeds above 50
MPH (80 km/h) and do not drive
more than 50 miles (80 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual
distance the vehicle can be driven
on a flat tire depends on outside
temperature, vehicle load, road con-
ditions and other factors.
. Drive safely at reduced speeds.
Avoid hard cornering or braking,
which may cause you to lose control
of the vehicle.
NOTICE
.Never install tire chains on a punc-
tured run-flat tire, as this could
damage your vehicle.
. Avoid driving over any projection or
pothole, as the clearance between
the vehicle and the ground is smal-
ler than normal.
. Do not enter an automated car wash
with a punctured run-flat tire.
. It is recommended you have the
punctured tire replaced by your
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible, as the tire's
performance capability is reduced.
If you have a flat tire and have to stop the
vehicle, follow the instructions below.
1. Safely move the vehicle off the road and away from traffic.
2. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
3. Park on a level surface and apply the parking brake. Move the shift lever to the
&Pposition.
4. Turn off the engine.
5. Raise the hood to warn other traffic, and to signal professional road assistance person-

GUID-FA6175CA-B213-4ECE-863E-635EEF1FE21FIf you have a flat tire, see the following
section. (
ªFlat tireº page 6-3)
CAUTION
A GT-R certified NISSAN dealer should
perform a tire change. It will be neces-
sary to reset the tire pressure sensors.
To change the tires, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
Be sure to use the tires and wheels together as
a set that are designated for use with this
vehicle.
When tire replacement is required, replacing the
tires as a set of four with new tires is
recommended. However, if a tire is punctured
or damaged, it may be possible to replace only
the damaged tire. Determining whether one tire
or a complete set of tires should be replaced is
based on a number of factors including tire wear
and condition. It is recommended you contact
your GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. They can
recommend if an individual tire or a complete set
should be replaced.
NOTICE
Make sure the tire valve stem cap is
installed and that the valve stem is
tight. When installing the cap, make
sure to tighten the cap by hand. If a tool
is used to tighten the cap, the cap may
be damaged.
TIRE PRESSUREGUID-524F51D3-3740-4280-B73B-13DACCD59EB9
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
GUID-49C37FD6-6A53-4877-8974-3E290A8057A5This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire
pressure of all tires. When the low tire pressure
warning light is lit, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The system also
displays pressure of all tires on the touch screen
display by sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) .
Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop
in tire pressure. (

ing lightº page 2-27) (

Check the tire pressure often and always
prior to long distance trips. The recom-
mended tire pressure specifications are
shown on the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. la-
bel or the Tire and Loading Information
label (if so equipped) under the ªCold
Tire Pressureº heading. The Tire and
Loading Information label is affixed to the
driver side door end. Tire pressures
should be checked regularly because:
.Most tires naturally lose air over time.
.Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the touch screen display. See
the separate Multi Function Display
Owner's Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. It is
recommended you contact a GT-R cer-
