OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TRUNKWhen opening the trunk, first unlock it
then lift up the trunk lid so that it is fully
open.
When closing the trunk, lower the trunk
lid and press it until it is securely locked in
place. The strap
(except for carbon
trunk lid models) or the handle
(for
carbon trunk lid models) can be used
when the trunk lid is dirty.
NOTICE
. Open and close the trunk without
grasping the rear spoiler. Grasp-
ing the rear spoiler to open or
close the trunk may damage the
spoiler.
. Do not leave the key inside the
trunk.
NOTE:
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being accidentally locked in the
trunk, lockout protection is
equipped with the Intelligent Key
system. When the trunk lid is closed
with the Intelligent Key inside the
trunk, the outside buzzer will sound and the trunk will open.
. The trunk of this vehicle is slightly
more difficult to close than an or-
dinary vehicle (particularly when the
vehicle is new). This is because the
trunk rigidity has been increased to
handle the high load on the rear
spoiler during vehicle operation.
This does not indicate that there is
a malfunction. Check that the trunk
is securely locked.
EMERGENCY TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them
from playing and becoming locked
in the trunk where they could be
seriously injured. Keep the car
locked, with the trunk lid securely
latched, when not in use, and pre-
vent children’s access to Intelligent
Keys.

The ELR locks the seat belt when the
vehicle slows down rapidly or during
impacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode or child restraint mode locks the
seat belt for child restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated the seat
belt cannot be extended again until the
seat belt tongue is detached from the
buckle and fully retracted. The seat belt
returns to the ELR mode after the seat
belt is fully retracted.
(
“Front passenger air bag and
status light” page 1-42)
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are comple-
tely secured in the latched position.
If they are not completely secured,
passengers may be injured in an
accident or sudden stop.
Unfastening the seat beltsTo unfasten the seat belt, push the
button on the buckle. The seat belt
automatically retracts.
Checking seat belt operationSeat belt retractors are designed to lock
seat belt movement by two separate
methods:
. When the belt is pulled quickly from
the retractor.
. When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat
belts, check the operation as follows:
. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull for-
ward quickly. The retractor should
lock and restrict further belt move-
ment.
If the retractor does not lock during this
check or if you have any question about
seat belt operation, see a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.

INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT
BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must
be used when installing a child re-
straint. Failure to use the ALR mode
will result in the child restraint not
being properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or be loose and cause
injury to a child in a sudden stop or
collision. Also, it can change the
operation of the front passenger air
bag. See
