in this section for 48 hours after tires
are installed on the wheels. The tire
may slip on the wheel if the vehicle is
driven in these conditions before 48
hours have passed. If the tire slips on
the wheel, the wheel/tire assembly
will be out of balance and will require
rebalancing.
BrakesThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
.Check for the heat deterioration of the
brakes and parts around the brakes.
. It is recommended that you remove
air from the brake system after any of
the following:
— When engaging in high perfor-
mance driving for the first time
after purchasing a new vehicle.
— After replacing the brake fluid.
— When engaging in high perfor- mance driving for a sustained per-
iod of time. It is recommended that
bleeding the brake be performed
when the brake calipers are hot
(about 212°F (100°C)). Brake pad break-in procedure:
NISSAN recommends that a special brake
pad break-in procedure be performed
before engaging in performance driving.
It is recommended you contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for details.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
AFTER DRIVINGThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
NOTICE
At the completion of performance
driving, all fluid and other adjust-
ments should be returned to the
normal fluid specifications as shown
in the “Maintenance and do-it-your-
self” section of this manual.FluidsThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
.
Check the engine, transmission, differ-
ential and under the vehicle for oil and
coolant leaks. .
Check the fluid levels and adjust as
necessary using the specified fluid as
described under the conditions listed
in this section. (

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
If the gauge indicates engine coolant

.If the AWD warning light blinks on
when you are driving:
— blinks rapidly (about twice a
second):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. The driv-
ing mode will change to RWD
to prevent the AWD system
from malfunctioning. If the
warning light turns off, you
can drive again. This does
not indicate that there is a
malfunction.
— blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. Check
that all tire sizes are the same
as that specified on the Tire
and Loading Information label
located in the driver’s door

you have the system inspected promptly
by a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
Transmission oil temperature high:
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
light turns off. The light will turn off after a
short period of time and the vehicle can
then be driven normally. If the light
illuminates frequently, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er.
NOTICE
If the light continues to illuminate,
the engine output may be reduced to
prevent transmission damage.
Transmission clutch temperature high:
The light illuminates if clutch temperature
becomes unusually high. If the light
illuminates, pull off the road in a safe area
and idle the engine. When the light turns
off, driving can be resumed. If the light
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.
. If the light continues to illumi-
nate, the vehicle cannot be driven
because the engine output may
be reduced and the clutch may be
reduced to keep the clutch disen-
gaged.
R mode start function:
If the R mode start function is used 4
times continuously, the function may be
disabled and cannot be turned on for

the warning light illuminates. When the
warning light goes off, the function can
be used again. (

NOTICE
