The light illuminates if the transmission oil
temperature becomes unusually high. If
the light illuminates, avoid driving at high
speed or at high engine speed until the

the engine output may be reduced to
prevent transmission damage.

becomes unusually high. If the light
illuminates, pull off the road in a safe area

illuminates frequently, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er.
NOTICE
. Continuing to drive with the light
on could cause serious damage
to the transmission.

be reduced and the clutch may be
reduced to keep the clutch disen-
gaged.

gine is not running. To avoid
injury, always disconnect the ne-
gative battery cable before work-
ing near the fan.
. The fuel filter or fuel lines should
be serviced by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer because the fuel
lines are under high pressure
even when the engine is off.

However, the brake pads can be sepa-
rately replaced only when a GT-R certified
technician judges that the brake disc
rotors are reusable, based on a measured

CARPETThe GT-R exhaust system is designed to
provide the maximum vehicle perfor-
mance and to protect the vehicle from
high exhaust gas temperatures.
If non-genuine GT-R exhaust system
parts are used it is possible that the
muffler or other exhaust system parts will
deform and cause damage to the under-
body. Non-genuine GT-R exhaust system
parts can also affect vehicle performance
and possibly lead to turbocharger, engine
or power train related parts including
transmission, damage.
Also, do not remove the trunk carpet from
the vehicle for any reason. The carpet
insulates the vehicle interior from the
heat of the muffler and from the noise
of the transmission.
TITANIUM MUFFLER AND TRUNK
CARPET (if so equipped)
NOTICE
Never allow polishes with com-
pounds, because there is a possibi-
lity that the titanium muffler finisher
coloring will be changed.
