whenever you work on your ve-
hicle.
. If you must run the engine in an
enclosed space such as a garage,
be sure there is proper ventilation
for exhaust gases to escape.
. Never get under the vehicle while
it is supported only by a jack. If it
is necessary to work under the
vehicle, support it with safety
stands.
. Keep smoking materials, flame
and sparks away from fuel tank
and the battery.
. Your vehicle is equipped with an
automatic engine cooling fan. It
may come on at any time without
warning, even if the ignition key is
in the OFF position and the en-
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.

subject it to a strong impact.
When removing the tires, be care-
ful not to allow the tire to inter-
fere with the brake disc rotor.
REPLACING BRAKE PADS AND
BRAKE DISC ROTORS.When replacing brake pads and brake
disc rotors, NISSAN recommends re-
placing two sets of them at the same
time. However, the brake pads can be
separately replaced only when a GT-R
certified technician judges that the
brake disc rotors are reusable, based
on a measured weight and a check for
scratches and cracks.
. It is recommended that maintenance
and inspection on your vehicle should
be performed at a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer after engaging in high
performance driving. Otherwise, the
peripheral parts of the brake may be
damaged due to the generation of
special radiant heat because of the
characteristics of the material in addi-
tion to brake pad wear and the
deterioration in durability of the brake
disc rotor.
Brake padWhen the brake warning light illuminates
to indicate brake pad wear, have the
brake system checked and brake pads
replaced as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you contact a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer for this service.

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 PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)This 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.

ways use run-flat tires of the specified
size on all four wheels. Mixing tire sizes or
construction may reduce vehicle handling
stability. If necessary, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for assistance.
Frequently check the tire pressure infor-
mation on the touch screen display and
adjust pressure of each tire properly. See
the separate Multi Function Display Own-
er’s Manual.
It can be difficult to tell if a run-flat tire is
under-inflated or flat. Check the tire
pressures as described earlier in this
section. If the tire becomes under-inflated
while driving, the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will come on. If the tire becomes
flat while driving, the low tire pressure
warning light and the run-flat tire warn-
ing display will come on.
