If the tire pressure is insuffi-
cient, fill with nitrogen gas. It
is recommended you contact
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
about filling with nitrogen
gas. If nitrogen gas is not
available, compressed air
may be safely used under
normal driving conditions. However, NISSAN recom-
mends refilling with nitrogen
gas for maximum tire perfor-
mance.
. If the warning light is still on after
the above operations, have your
vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended you have
the vehicle checked by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer.
or
Anti-lock Braking
System (ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminates and then
turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while
the engine is running, or while driving, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. It is recommended you have the
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-
lock function is turned off. The brake
system then operates normally, but with-
out anti-lock assistance. (

The disc-type brakes self-adjust every
time the brake pedal is applied.
HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKE SYS-
TEM (models without NCCB
(NISSAN Carbon Ceramic Brake)
package)This vehicle is equipped with high perfor-
mance brake pads that provide appro-
priate braking force in a broad range of
driving environments. Due to the material
used for the brake pads, the road wheels
may become more easily covered by
brake dust, however this does not indi-
cate that there is a malfunction.
The GT-R brake pads use material that
contains a lot of iron to maintain steady
braking performance even in high and
low temperatures. However, if the brake

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.

WARNING
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 perfor-
mance in a wide range of weather and
driving conditions.
For the first 3,000 miles (5,000 km) of the
vehicle’s service life, and for the first 3,000
miles (5,000km) after a brake replace-
ment, the brake pad to brake rotor
clearance is very small. When parking,
apply the parking brake and move the
shift lever to the
position is selected.
5. Push the ignition switch to stop the engine.

position. Failure
to do so could cause the vehicle
to move unexpectedly or roll
away and result in an accident.
. Make sure the shift lever has
been pushed as far forward as it
can go and cannot be moved
without depressing the foot
brake pedal.
. Follow the instructions below
when parking the vehicle to help
prevent the brake rotor and
brake pads from rusting to-
gether. Failure to follow the in-
structions 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 re-
duce the effectiveness of the
brake system which could cause
a collision, serious personal injury
or death. (for models without
