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

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.
GT-R Overview
GTR-27

Parking brake indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light comes on when the
parking brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake
fluid level. If the light comes on while the
engine is running with the parking brake
not applied, stop the vehicle and perform
the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brakefluid as necessary. (
“Brake fluid”
page 8-11)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, it is recommended you have the warning
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and
the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both
the brake warning light and the Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light illu-
minate, it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning properly. It is recommended
you have the brake system checked, and
if necessary repaired, by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer promptly. (
“Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light” page 2-29)
Brake pad wear warning indicator
(models with NCCB (NISSAN Carbon
Ceramic Brake) package):
When the brake warning light illuminates,
it may indicate that there is brake pad
wear. Have the brake system checked
and brake pads replaced as soon as
possible. It is recommended you contact
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for this
service.
WARNING
.
Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning
light is on. Driving could be dan-
gerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the
brake fluid reservoir, do not drive
until the brake system has been
checked. It is recommended you
contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging
system is not functioning properly. Turn
the engine off and check the alternator
belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing or
if the light remains on, it is recommended
you see a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
immediately.
Instruments and controls

Security indicator lightThe security indicator light is located on
the instrument panel. It indicates the
status of the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer
System.
The light blinks whenever the ignition
switch is in the ACC, OFF or LOCK posi-
tion. This function indicates the security
systems equipped on the vehicle are
operational.
If the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System

dually stop the vehicle.
6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and contact a roadside emergency
service to change the tire.
DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND
DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of
alcohol or drugs. Alcohol in the
bloodstream reduces coordination,
delays reaction time and impairs
judgement. Driving after drinking
alcohol increases the likelihood of
being involved in an accident injuring
yourself and others. Additionally, if
you are injured in an accident, alco-
hol can increase the severity of the
injury.
NISSAN is committed to safe driving.
However, you must choose not to drive
under the influence of alcohol. Every year
thousands of people are injured or killed
in alcohol-related accidents. Although the
local laws vary on what is considered to
be legally intoxicated, the fact is that
alcohol affects all people differently and
most people underestimate the effects of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t
mix! And that is true for drugs, too (over-
the-counter, prescription, and illegal
drugs). Don’t drive if your ability to oper-
ate your vehicle is impaired by alcohol,
drugs, or some other physical condition.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) DRIVING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
.
Do not drive beyond the perfor-
mance capability of the tires,
even with AWD engaged. Acceler-
ating quickly, sharp steering
maneuvers or sudden braking
may cause loss of control.
. Always use the specified tires on
all four wheels. Install tire chains
on the rear wheels when driving
on slippery roads and drive care-
fully.
. This vehicle is not designed for
offroad (rough road) use. Do not
drive on sandy or muddy roads
that tires may get stuck in.
. Do not attempt to raise two
wheels off the ground and shift the transmission to any
position with the engine run-
ning. Doing so may result in
drivetrain damage or unexpected
vehicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
. Do not attempt to test an AWD
equipped vehicle on a 2-wheel
dynamometer, (such as the dy-
namometers used by some
states for emissions testing), or
similar equipment even if the
other two wheels are raised off
the ground. Make sure you inform
test facility personnel that your
vehicle is equipped with AWD
before it is placed on a dynam-
ometer. Using the wrong test
equipment may result in drive-
train damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
. When a wheel is off the ground
due to an unlevel surface, do not
spin the wheel excessively.

When parking the vehicle
position
and stop the engine. If the engine is
running and the shift lever is not in
the
position, the vehicle may start
moving due to partial engagement
of the clutch or to the effects of
gravity on a slope, or the vehicle may
suddenly accelerate due to acciden-
tal operation of the accelerator ped-
al, possibly causing an accident.

position.
3. To help prevent the vehicle from roll- ing into the street when parked on a
sloping drive way, it is a good practice
to turn the wheels as illustrated.
.
HEADED DOWNHILL WITH CURB:Turn the wheels into the curb and
move the vehicle forward until the
curb side wheel gently touches the
curb.
.
HEADED UPHILL WITH CURB:Turn the wheels away from the
curb and move the vehicle back
until the curb side wheel gently
touches the curb.
.
HEADED UPHILL OR DOWNHILL, NO
CURB:Turn the wheels toward the side of
the road so the vehicle will move
away from the center of the road if
it moves.

For models without NCCB (NISSAN Car-
bon Ceramic Brake) package:
The GT-R uses brake pad materials that
have high metallic content. The brake pad
material helps maintain braking perfor-
mance 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 replacement, the
brake pad to brake rotor clearance is very
small. When parking, apply the parking
brake and move the shift lever to the
position. Idle the engine for more than 20
seconds without depressing the brake
pedal. This allows the brake pads to move
away from the rotor so the pad does not
contact the rotor.
Additionally, the brakes must be dry
before parking the vehicle after driving
on wet roads or after washing the vehicle.
If the roads are wet, lightly apply the
brakes for a short distance before parking
the vehicle to dry the brakes. After wash-
ing the vehicle, dry the brakes by driving
on a dry road for a few miles and apply
the brakes normally based on traffic and
road conditions.
The metallic brake pads and brake disc
rotor may rust together when the brakes
are not applied:
.
If the vehicle is not idled for 20
seconds without the brakes applied,
or if the brakes are applied when the
vehicle is shut off, the rotor and pads
can rust together, even when the brake pads are dry.
. If the brakes are wet when the vehicle
is parked and the parking brake is
applied for a long time.
It is recommended you contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer if the brake pads
and brake rotor have rusted together.
