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.

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
protection. While the function is disabled,
the warning light illuminates. When the
warning light goes off, the function can
be used again. (

accident.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper
buckle.
. Do not wear the seat belt inside
out or twisted. Doing so may
reduce its effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one
person to use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the
vehicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light
glows continuously while the
ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all seat belts
fastened, it may indicate a mal-
function in the system. It is re-
commended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
. No changes should be made to
the seat belt system. For exam-
ple, do not modify the seat belt,
add material, or install devices
that may change the seat belt
routing or tension. Doing so may
affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modifying or tam-
pering with the seat belt system
may result in serious personal injury.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with
the retractor. It is recommended
you see a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. Removal and installation of the
pretensioner system components
should be done by a GT-R certi-
fied NISSAN dealer.
. All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching hard-
ware, should be inspected after
any collision by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer. NISSAN recom-
mends that all seat belt assem-
blies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was
minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate
properly. Seat belt assemblies
not in use during a collision
should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or im-
proper operation is noted.
. All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected
after any collision. Always follow
the restraint manufacturer’s in- spection instructions and repla-
cement recommendations. The
child restraints should be re-
placed if they are damaged.

body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn
and the driver and passenger seated
upright as far as practical away from the
side air bags. The side air bags and
curtain air bags inflate quickly in order
to help protect occupants. Because of
this, the force of the side air bags and
curtain air bags inflating can increase the
risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules
during inflation. In a rollover, the curtain
air bags on both sides are designed to
inflate. Under both side-impact situations,
the curtain air bags will remain inflated
for a short period of time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.
