ways use run-flat tires of the specified
size on all four wheels. Mixing tire sizes or
construction may reduce vehicle handling
stability. If necessary, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for assistance.
Frequently check the tire pressure infor-
mation on the touch screen display and
adjust pressure of each tire properly. See
the separate Multi Function Display Own-
er’s Manual.
It can be difficult to tell if a run-flat tire is
under-inflated or flat. Check the tire
pressures as described earlier in this
section. If the tire becomes under-inflated
while driving, the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will come on. If the tire becomes
flat while driving, the low tire pressure
warning light and the run-flat tire warn-
ing display will come on.

NOTICE
.Never install tire chains on a
punctured run-flat tire, as this
could damage your vehicle.
. Avoid driving over any projection
or pothole, as the clearance be-
tween the vehicle and the ground
is smaller than normal.
. Do not enter an automated car
wash with a punctured run-flat
tire.
. It is recommended you have the
punctured tire replaced by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer as soon
Do-it-yourself

.You can also check the pressure of all
tires on the touch screen display.
Refer to the separate Multi Function
Display Owner’s Manual.
. The tire pressure sensor should be
reset anytime the wheels or tires are
removed or replaced.
. If the tire is removed in order to
replace the tire pressure sensor bat-
tery, it may not be possible to reuse
the removed tire from the wheel. To
replace the tire pressure sensor bat-
tery, it is recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
.If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneu-
vers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires
and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in ser-
ious personal injury. Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light off. If
the light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat
(
“Run-flat tires” page 6-4) or
the TPMS may be malfunctioning.
If no tire is flat and all tires are
properly inflated, have the vehicle
checked. It is recommended you
have the vehicle checked by a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
. Although you can continue driv-
ing with a punctured run-flat tire,
remember that vehicle handling
stability is reduced, which could
lead to an accident and personal
injury. Also, driving a long dis-
tance at high speeds may da-
mage the tires.
. Do not drive at speeds above 50
MPH (80 km/h) and do not drive
more than 50 miles (80 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual
distance the vehicle can be driven
on a flat tire depends on outside
temperature, vehicle load, road conditions and other factors.
. When a wheel is replaced, the
TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1
minute. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. It is recommended
you contact your GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer as soon as possi-
ble for tire replacement and/or
system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not
originally specified by NISSAN
could affect the proper operation
of the TPMS.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or
aerosol tire sealant into the tires,
as this may cause a malfunction
of the tire pressure sensors.
NOTICE
.The TPMS may not function prop-
erly when the wheels are
equipped with tire chains or the
wheels are buried in snow.
. The TPMS may not function prop-
erly if the TPMS sensor is not
reset and when wheels/tires from
