WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS

Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light
The light will blink when the VDC system
or the traction control system is operat-
ing, thus alerting the driver that the
vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The
road surface may be slippery.
If the VDC warning light illuminates when
the VDC system is turned on, this light
alerts the driver to the fact that the VDC
system’s fail-safe mode is operating, for
example the VDC or hill start assist
system may not be functioning properly.
It is recommended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er. If a malfunction occurs in the system,
the VDC system function will be canceled
but the vehicle is still driveable.

tem” page 5-54)

or
position and the ignition
switch in the ACC, OFF or LOCK position.
Turn the headlight switch to the OFF (if so
equipped) or AUTO position when you
leave the vehicle.

Do not use the cruise control when
driving under the following condi-
tions. Doing so could cause a loss of
vehicle control and result in an acci-
dent.
.When it is not possible to keep
the vehicle at a set speed.
. In heavy traffic or in traffic that
varies in speed.
. On winding or hilly roads.
. On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice,
etc.).
. In very windy areas.
NOTE:
. When the SAVE mode is selected
with the transmission setup switch,
the acceleration and deceleration
can be controlled smoothly. When
the SAVE mode is selected, the
maximum setting speed is lower
than the one in the normal mode. When the vehicle approaches a gen-
tle uphill, there may be a slight delay
as the vehicle returns to the preset
speed. However, the vehicle will
gradually accelerate and return to
the preset speed.
PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE CON-
TROL.
If the cruise control system malfunc-
tions, it will cancel automatically. The
SET indicator will blink and the cruise
control system warning will appear to
warn the driver. (
“Cruise control
system warning” page 2-43)
. If the engine coolant temperature
becomes excessively high, the cruise
control system will be canceled auto-
matically.
. If the SET indicator blinks, turn the
cruise control main switch off and it is
recommended you contact a GT-R

CRUISE CONTROL

. The SET
indicator will turn off.
. Tap the brake pedal. The SET
indicator will turn off.
. Turn the MAIN switchoff. Both the
CRUISE indicator and SET indicator will
turn off. NOTE:
.
If cruise control was canceled by
pressing the cancel switch or by
depressing the brake pedal, the
system changes to standby status.
. If you depress the brake pedal while
pushing the RESUME/ACCELERATE
or SET/COAST switch and reset at
the cruising speed, the cruise control
will be deactivated. Turn the MAIN
switch off once and then turn it on
again.
Under the following conditions, cruise
control will be automatically canceled.
. Vehicle speed drops to below approxi-
mately 19 MPH (30 km/h).
. Vehicle speed drops to more than
approximately 8 MPH (13 km/h) below
the set vehicle speed.
. The shift lever is moved to a position
other than

wheels will lose even more trac-
tion.
. Allow more stopping distance
under these conditions. Braking
should be started sooner than on
dry pavement.
. Allow greater following distances
on slippery roads.
. Watch for slippery spots (glare
ice). These may appear on an
otherwise clear road in shaded
areas. If a patch of ice is seen
ahead, brake before reaching it.
Try not to brake while on the ice,
and avoid any sudden steering
maneuvers.
. Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads.
. Snow can trap dangerous ex-
haust gases under your vehicle.
Keep snow clear of the exhaust
pipe and from around your vehi-
cle.
NOTE:
When driving on snow, select the SAVE
mode with the setup switch. By select-
ing the SAVE mode, the engine output is
controlled appropriately for snow or slippery road surfaces. This enables
the vehicle to start or accelerate
smoothly.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (if so
equipped)Engine block heaters are used to assist
with cold temperature starting.
The engine block heater should be used
when the outside temperature is 20°F
(−7°C) or lower.To use the engine block heater1. Turn the engine off.
2. Plug the engine block heater cord into
a grounded 3-wire, 3-pronged exten-
sion cord.
3. Plug the extension cord into a Ground Fault Interrupt (GFI) protected,
grounded 110-volt AC (VAC) outlet.
4. The engine block heater must be plugged in for at least 2 - 4 hours,
depending on outside temperatures,
to properly warm the engine coolant.
Use an appropriate timer to turn the
engine block heater on.
5. Before starting the engine, unplug and properly store the cord to keep it
away from moving parts.
