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.
. The vehicle is stopped completely on a
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 operating completely.
Hill start assist will not operate when the
shift lever is moved to the
or
position
or on a flat and level road.
NOTE:
This system does not function when the
Vehicle Dynamic Control VDC) system
warning appears on the vehicle infor-
mation display located in the tach-
ometer. (

position.
. Transmission oil temperature is 284°F
(140°C) or higher:
If the transmission oil temperature
increases to over 284°F (140°C), the
color of the meter display changes to
red. However, the vehicle can continue
to be driven until the temperature
reaches 295°F (146°C). If the oil tem-
perature exceeds 284°F (140°C) while
driving (the color of the meter dis-
played in red), change both the trans-
mission oil and the differential oil after
driving because these fluids have
deteriorated because of the heat.

ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ITEMS

WARNING
Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Continued
refueling may cause fuel overflow,
resulting in fuel spray and possibly a
fire. The fuel tank is full at the first
automatic shutoff.
To maximize vehicle performance, the
fuel tank is located as low as possible to
lower the vehicle center of gravity. The
tank is also divided into two parts. This
fuel tank design causes higher pressures
inside the tank than other vehicles so fuel
spillage is possible by trying to top off the
fuel tank after automatic shutoff.
The fuel tank pressure is higher when the
vehicle is hot, especially if the tank is more
than half full. If the cap is opened when
the vehicle is hot, it may cause fuel spray
and there may be a hissing noise. Open
the cap slowly, releasing the pressure
from the tank gradually. Also, if the
vehicle is refueled when the vehicle is
hot, the fuel pump may automatically
shut off before the tank is full. This does
not indicate that there is a malfunction. Refuel slowly or refuel after the vehicle
has cooled.
GASOLINE SMELLThe fuel temperature is higher when the
vehicle is hot. This may cause a gasoline
smell from the vehicle. This does not
indicate that there is a malfunction. The
smell will go away when the fuel tem-
perature has cooled.OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
INDICATES HIGHER TEMPERATUREHeat from the engine compartment, ra-
diator and intercoolers can affect the
outside temperature display. The outside
temperature display may indicate a high-
er than actual temperature while driving
or stopped. This is normal.IDLE SPEED IS NOT STEADYThe idle speed may not be steady when
the engine compartment is extremely
hot. This is normal. The engine speed will
be steady when the engine cools down.
In this case, the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) may come on. After a few
driving trips, the MIL should turn off. If the
light remains on after a few driving trips, it
is recommended you have the vehicle
inspected by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.

GT-R SPECIFIC VEHICLE CHARACTERISTICS

For models without NCCB (NISSAN
Carbon Ceramic Brake) package:Follow the instructions below when
parking the vehicle to help prevent
the brake rotor and brake pads from
rusting together. Failure to follow
the instructions could cause the
rotor and pads to rust together. If
the rotor and pads rust together,
there may be a popping noise and
some vibration when the vehicle is
driven, a wheel may not roll correctly,
or the brake pads could be damaged.
If the pads are damaged, this may
reduce the effectiveness of the brake
system which could cause a collision,
serious personal injury or death.
. The GT-R uses brake pad materials
that have high metallic content. The
brake pad material helps maintain
braking performance in a wide range
of weather and driving conditions.
For the first 3,000-6,000 miles (5,000-
10,000 km) of the vehicle’s service life,
and for the first 3,000-6,000 miles
(5,000-10,000 km) after a brake repla-
cement, the brake pad to brake rotor clearance is very small. When parking,
apply the parking brake and move the
shift lever to the
NOTICE
To help reduce the possibility of the
rotors and brake pads rusting:
Have the brake pads and/or rotors
quenched when the brake pads are
replaced. For detailed information
about quenching, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer.
After quenching the brake pads and/
or rotors, apply a brake of 0.5G to
stop the vehicle 6-7 times at least
once a week in a safe location. G-
force can be checked on the multi
function meter on the touch screen
display. Refer to the separate Multi
Function Display Owner’s Manual.

to shift gear or it may take longer to shift gear. Make sure to depress the brake pedal and check that the vehicle has
stopped before shifting.

When stopping the vehicle with the shift lever in the
orposition. Move the shift lever after turning off the system check
display. Also, it is normal to hear clicking noises during the transmission systems check.
Changing modes
.
The higher shift speeds in the
position may result in shift shock and jerkiness when starting or shifting.
.
The quickest shifting in the R mode with the transmission in the
position is available when the engine speed is high.
However, the transmission may shift more slowly when the engine speed is low.
Mechanical Limited Slip
Differential (LSD) If the vehicle accelerates from a stop with the steering wheel turned half a turn in cold temperatures, the inner wheel tire
may slip and some noise or vibration may be heard. This phenomenon occurs because the viscosity of the differential oil
becomes thicker and the Limited Slip Differential (LSD) operates with increasing load. When the steering wheel is returned
to the straight ahead position or the differential oil warms up, the noise and vibration decrease.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHTThe supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying
in the meter, monitors the
circuits for the air bag systems, preten-
sioners and all related wirings.
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates for about 7 seconds
and then turns off. This means the SRS air
bag systems are operational.
If any of the following conditions occur,
the air bag and/or pretensioner systems
need servicing:
