INFO:
. When this meter displays in red, reduce the
operating speed of the engine (RPMs) and
drive at a reduced speed.
. Driving while the engine coolant tempera-
ture is high may cause engine damage.

INFO:
. The oil pressure gauge may momentarily
have a high reading, but this is a result of oil
pressure suppression and does not indicate
a malfunction.
. If the meter reads red frequently, have your
vehicle inspected at your NISSAN dealer or
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
. When screens other than the FUNCTION
screen are displayed, the screen will not
change, even if the meter values register red

Brake pedalDisplays the brake pedal position. This can only
be displayed as a small panel.
Small panel screen
INFO:
The reading that the brake meter displays when
the pedal is being depressed may vary, depend-
ing on the vehicle speed and road conditions.
The brake meter may not display a reading of
“100%” even when the brake is being fully
depressed. This is not a malfunction.
SteeringDisplays the steering angle. This can only be
displayed as a small panel.
Small panel screen
INFO:
The amount of g-force exerted on the vehicle,
and displayed on the meter, will vary depending
on the driving speed.
Cornering GDisplays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. In the large panel, this meter displays
readings for the past 20 seconds. In the small
panel, this meter displays the lateral g-force
being exerted on the vehicle at the time of the
reading. When turning to the left, the resulting g-
force is displayed on the right side of the screen.
When turning to the right, the resulting g-force
is displayed on the left side of the screen. The
red zone readings are configured to function as
a guide for smooth driving.
WARNING
. Use the information from the multi
function meter strictly as a refer-
ence to make your driving more
comfortable. The readings are not
meant to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving or poor driving
conditions (due to weather, road
condition, etc.) . Always obey all
traffic regulations and posted speed
limits.

INFO:
. Due to the slope of a road, this meter may
register g-force even when the vehicle is
stopped. This is not a malfunction.
. When the VDC or the ABS is activated, a
mark will appear on the far left side of the
panel (large panel only) .
. The scale of the readout is adjusted auto-
matically to accommodate readings that
exceed the upper limit of the meter.
Accel/Braking GDisplays the fore/aft g-force exerted on the
vehicle. In the large panel, this meter displays
readings for the past 20 seconds. In the small
panel, this meter displays fore/aft g-force being
exerted on the vehicle at the time of the reading.
When accelerating, the resulting g-force is
displayed at the top of the panel. When
decelerating, the resulting g-force is displayed
at the bottom of the panel. The red zone
readings are configured to function as a guide
for smooth driving.
