2021 NISSAN GT-R fuel

NOTICE
.If fuel is spilled on the vehicle
body, flush it away with water to
avoid paint damage.
. Insert the cap straight into the
fuel-filler tube, then tighten until
the fuel-filler cap clicks. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap properly
may cause the
Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate.
If the
light illuminates be-
cause the fuel-filler cap is loose
or missing, tighten or install the
cap and continue to drive the
vehicle. The
light should turn
off after a few driving trips. If the
light does not turn off after a
few driving trips, it is recom-
mended you have the vehicle
inspected by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
(“Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)” page 2-32)
. This vehicle includes a system
that can supply fuel even during
high-G (gravity) turns. The fuel
tank pressure is higher when the
vehicle is hot. 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.
FUEL-FILLER DOOR

2. Press the rear side of the fuel-fillerdoor to release the door lock, and
open the door.
3. Turn the cap
slowly counterclock-
wise to remove it.
During refueling, place the cap on the
inside of the door
.
CLOSING THE FUEL-FILLER DOOR1. Turn the cap clockwise until a single click sound is heard.
2. Close the door. Lock the fuel-filler door by using one of the following
operations.
. Push the door handle request switch
with the Intelligent Key carried with
you.
. Push the LOCK button on the Intelli-Pre-driving checks and adjustments

is used.
. Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite
compared to when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
. Use the displayed lines as a re-
ference. The lines are highly af-
fected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle po-
sition, road conditions and road
grade.
. Make sure that the trunk lid is
securely closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rear-
view camera. The rearview cam-
era is installed above the license
plate.
. When washing the vehicle with
high-pressure water, be sure not
to spray it around the camera.
Otherwise, water may enter the
camera unit causing water con-
densation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise,
it may malfunction or cause da-
mage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock. The following are operating limitations
and do not represent a system malfunc-
tion:
.
When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects.
. When strong light is directly coming
on the camera, objects may not be
displayed clearly.
. Vertical lines may be seen in objects
on the screen. This is due to strong
reflected light from the bumper.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from
the actual color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be
clear in a dark environment.
. There may be a delay when switching
to the RearView Monitor screen.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on
the camera, the RearView Monitor
may not display objects clearly. Clean
the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera win-
dow. Wipe off any wax with a clean
cloth dampened with mild detergent
diluted with water.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
.Do not use alcohol, benzine or
thinner to clean the camera. This
will cause discoloration. To clean
the camera, wipe with a cloth
dampened with diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wipe
with a dry cloth.
. Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected.

Opening trunk lid:
1. Push the trunk open request switch
for more than 1 second.
2. The trunk will unlatch. An outside chime will sound four times.
3. Raise the trunk lid to open 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.
Battery saver systemWhen all the following conditions are met
for a period of time, the battery saver
system will cut off the power supply to
prevent battery discharge.
.The ignition switch is in the ACC
position, and
. All doors are closed, and
. The shift lever is in the
position.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEMIt is possible to lock/unlock all doors, fuel-
filler door, and activate the panic alarm by
pushing the buttons on the Intelligent
Key.
NOTE:
Before locking the doors, make sure the
Intelligent Key is not left in the vehicle.Remote keyless entry operating
rangeThe LOCK/UNLOCK button on the Intelli-
gent Key can operate at a distance of
approximately 33 ft (10 m) from the
vehicle. (The effective distance depends
upon the conditions around the vehicle.)
The lock and unlock buttons on the
Intelligent Key will not operate when:
.the distance between the Intelligent
Key and the vehicle is over 33 ft (10 m).
. the Intelligent Key battery runs down.
The LOCK/UNLOCK operating range var-
ies depending on the environment. To
securely operate the lock and unlock
buttons, approach the vehicle to about 3
ft (1 m) from the door.

Cool downThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
Cool down the vehicle to help extend the
life of the vehicle if coolant temperatures
are extremely high. Drive the vehicle at 37
to 50 MPH (60 to 80 km/h), in 5th or 6th
gear for 2 to 3 miles (3 to 5 km) and then
stop the engine.Refueling precautions
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.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
BEFORE DRIVINGThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.Fluids.
Check the engine, transmission, differ-
ential and under vehicle surfaces for
oil and coolant leaks.
. Check the fluid levels and adjust as
necessary using the specified fluid as
described under the conditions listed
in this section.(
“Recommended
fluids and maintenance interval” page GTR-20) If you do not drive under the
conditions listed, refer to the “9. Main-
tenance and schedules” section of this
manual.

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.
