position. Be sure to depress the
brake pedal.
NOTICE
. Be sure to observe the following
precautions. Failure to do so may
result in shift lever malfunction.
— Do not spill water, beverages
or other liquids on the shift
lever.
— Do not allow sand or similar substances to contact the
shift lever.
. Develop the habit of performing
the operations marked with “
”
without pressing the button. If
the button is pressed at these
times, there is the possibility that
the lever could accidentally enter
the
or
positions.
. When the vehicle is hot, the area
around the shift lever may be hot
or may produce an unusual
sound, however this does not
indicate that there is a malfunc-
tion.
. Avoid depressing the brake and
accelerator pedals at the same
time. Depressing both pedals at
the same time could cause the
clutch to overheat and accelerate deterioration.
NOTE:
. When moving the shift lever out of
the
position, it may not be possi-
ble to move the shift lever if the
button is pressed before the brake
pedal is depressed. Press the button
only after depressing the brake
pedal.
. Do not place coins or other small
objects in the area around the shift
lever. These objects may get stuck in
the shift gate and prevent the shift
lever from moving into a position.
Sometimes, you may not be able to
retrieve these objects.
. Immediately after a cold start, while
the transmission system check dis-
play (“T/M SYSTEM CHECK IN PRO-
CESS”) appears on the vehicle
information display, the shift lever
cannot be moved out of the
position. This is because a check of
the transmission system is in pro-
gress. This does not indicate that
there is a malfunction. Move the
shift lever after the message on the
vehicle information display turns off.
. The shift lever knob and console-

2. Accelerate your vehicle to the desiredspeed, push the SET/COAST switch
and release it. (The SET indicator will
illuminate in the meter.) Take your
foot off the accelerator pedal. Your
vehicle will maintain the set speed.
NOTE:
If the vehicle speed reaches approxi-
mately 3 MPH (5 km/h) over the set
speed, the set speed on the vehicle
information display blinks.Passing another vehicleTo pass another vehicle, depress the
accelerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle will return to the pre- viously set speed.
Increasing the set vehicle speedTo reset at a faster cruising speed, use
one of the following methods:
.
Depress the accelerator pedal. When
the vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET/COAST
switch.
. Push and hold the RESUME/ACCELER-
ATE switch. When the vehicle attains
the speed you desire, release the
switch.
. Push and then quickly release the
RESUME/ACCELERATE switch. Each
time you do this, the set speed will
increase by about 1 MPH or 1 km/h.Decreasing the set vehicle speedTo reset at a slower cruising speed, use
one of the following methods:
.Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET/COAST
switch.
. Push and hold the SET/COAST switch.
Release the switch when the vehicle
slows down to the desired speed.
. Push and then quickly release the

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

warning appears on the vehicle infor-
mation display located in the tach-
ometer. (

HILL START ASSIST SYSTEM

CAUTION
.Keep the interior of the vehicle as
quiet as possible to hear the tone
clearly. Excessive noise (such as
audio system volume or an open
vehicle window) will interfere
with the tone and it may not be
heard.
. Keep the sonar (located on the
bumper fascia) free from snow,
ice and large accumulations of
dirt (do not clean the sonar with
sharp objects). If the sonar is
covered, it will affect the accuracy
of the sonar system.
. The sonar system may not oper-
ate correctly if a license plate
cover is installed.
The sonar system sounds a tone to warn
the driver of obstacles near the bumper.
The sonar indicator will also appear in the
touch screen display. (
“Sonar indica-
tor” page 5-49.) The system detects front
obstacles when the shift lever is in the
position or
position and both front and

position.
The system may not detect objects at
speeds above 6 MPH (10 km/h) and may
not detect certain angular or moving
objects.
Refer to the illustration for approximate
zone coverage areas. As you move closer
to the obstacle, the rate of the tone
increases. When you move even closer
to the obstacle, the tone will sound
continuously.
The sensitivity level of the sonar can be
adjusted (higher or lower) in the sonar
setting display. (

could affect the proper operation
of the TPMS.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or
aerosol tire sealant into the tires,
as this may cause a malfunction
of the tire pressure sensors.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all
four tires on the touch screen dis-
play. See the separate Multi Func-
tion Display Owner’s Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled
with nitrogen gas. When the tire
pressure is low, fill the tires with
nitrogen. It is recommended you
contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer for information on filling the
tires with nitrogen.
. If nitrogen is not available, com-
pressed air may be safely used
under normal driving conditions.
However, NISSAN recommends re-
filling with nitrogen for maximum
tire performance.
RUN-FLAT TIRESRun-flat tires are those tires that can be
used temporarily if they are punctured.

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.

USING THE WASHERPull the lever toward you to operate the
washer. Then the wiper will also operate
several times.
NOTE:
When the level of washer fluid is low, a
warning display appears on the vehicle
information display. (
