2019 NISSAN GT-R brakes

engine for more than 20 seconds
without depressing the brake pedal.
This allows the brake pads to move
away from the rotor so the pad does
not contact the rotor.
Additionally, the brakes must be dry
before parking the vehicle after driv-
ing on wet roads or after washing the
vehicle. If the roads are wet, lightly
apply the brakes for a short distance
before parking the vehicle to dry the
brakes. After washing the vehicle, dry
the brakes by driving on a dry road for
a few miles and apply the brakes
normally based on traffic and road
conditions.
The metallic brake pads and brake
disc rotor may rust together when the
brakes are not applied:
— If the vehicle is not idled for 20seconds without the brakes ap-
plied, or if the brakes are applied
when the vehicle is shut off, the
rotor and pads can rust together,
even when the brake pads are dry.
— If the brakes are wet when the vehicle is parked and the parking
brake is applied for a long time.
— The hill start assist system can apply the brakes even if the brake
pedal is not depressed. The brake
pads and rotors can rust together if the parking procedure previously
described is not followed.
It is recommended you contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer if the brake
pads and brake rotor have rusted
together.

NOTICE
When the vehicle is stopped on a hill,
do not hold the vehicle in place by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
Doing so may cause the clutch to
overheat and result in transmission
damage. Use the brakes to prevent
the vehicle from moving.
The hill start assist system automatically
keeps the brakes applied to help prevent
the vehicle from rolling backwards in the
time it takes the driver to release the
brake pedal and apply the accelerator
when the vehicle is stopped on a hill.
Hill start assist will operate automatically
under the following conditions:
. The shift lever is moved to a forward
or reverse position.

hill by applying the brake.
The maximum holding time is 2 seconds.
After 2 seconds the vehicle will begin to
roll back and hill start assist will stop
