PERFORMANCE AND VEHICLE IN-
FORMATION PANEL
The appearance of each panel varies. The way
that large panels and small panels are displayed
also differs, even when the same mechanical
information is displayed.
Engine coolant temperature
Displays the temperature of the engine coolant.
Large panel screen
Small panel screen
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.
. When screens other than the FUNCTION
screen are displayed, the screen will not
change, even if the meter values register red
zone readings.
Engine oil temperature
Displays the engine oil temperature reading.
Large panel screen
Small panel screen
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 oil temperature is
high may cause engine damage.
. When screens other than the FUNCTION
screen are displayed, the screen will not
change, even if the meter values register red
zone readings.
Engine oil pressure
Displays the engine oil pressure. The reading on
this dial will change based on the engine speed
(RPM) and oil temperature.

Large panel screen
Small panel screen
Transmission oil temperature
Displays the transmission oil temperature.
Large panel screen
Small panel screen
INFO:
. When the transmission oil temperature
increases to over 2848F(1408C) the color
of the meter display turns to red. However,
the vehicle can be driven until the tempera-
ture reaches 2958F(1468C) . When the color
of the meter display turns red, because the
oil is deteriorated, replace the transmission
and differential oil after driving. .
After first starting the engine, it may take a
short period of time for the oil pressure to
stabilize. This is not a malfunction.
. When screens other than the FUNCTION
screen are displayed, the screen will not
change, even if the meter values register red
zone readings.
Transmission oil pressure
Displays the transmission oil pressure.

10-12Multi function meter
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 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
zone readings.
Boost
Displays engine charging pressure.

Speed
Displays the vehicle speed. This can only be
displayed as a small panel.
Small panel screen

Display the amount of fuel remaining and the
estimated cruising range.
Large panel screen

NOTICE
Even when traveling a distance for
which there is a sufficient amount of
fuel, refuel when the gas gauge ap-
proaches empty or when the fuel warn-
ing light illuminates.
Fuel flow
Displays the amount of fuel injected into the
engine by the fuel injector.

over the past twenty minutes. In the small panel,
this meter displays fuel consumption readings
over the past twenty seconds.

INFO:
. The small panel will display “-.-”:
— when the vehicle is stopped
— for the first few moments of driving
. The large panel will not display a graph while
the vehicle is stopped.

Displays the amount of forward distributed
torque. This can only be displayed as a small
panel.

How to view screen
&1ACCEL G (timeline graph):
Displays the acceleration exerted on the vehicle.
The vertical readout illustrates the progress of
acceleration and the horizontal readout tracks the
acceleration timeline of the past 20 seconds.
&2Red zone display:
The color of the graph will change when the
vehicle accelerates beyond a preset level of g-
force.
&3G-meter:
Displays the g-force currently being exerted on
the vehicle.
&41BOOST:
Displays the engine charger pressure.
&5ACCEL PEDAL:
Displays the accelerator pedal position.
INFO:
. This panel only displays acceleration infor-
mation when the vehicle is accelerating. It
does not display any acceleration informa-
tion when the vehicle is decelerating.
. 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 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.
Using result screens to improve
driving
INFO:
This section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother. Timeline and driving that show smooth
operation of accelerator pedal:
&1Depressing the accelerator pedal slowly and
smoothly will result in a smoothly rising line.
&2When depressing the accelerator gradually, the
angle of the line slopes gently upwards.
&3As you bring the vehicle to a constant speed by
slowly stabilizing the angle of the accelerator
pedal, the acceleration panel will display this as a
gradually leveling horizontal line.

&3Selected gear (horizontal):
Displays the currently selected gear.
&4SPEED:
Displays the current speed.
&5GEAR (gear position):
Displays gear shifting mode and gear position.
.Gear shifting mode: A range/ M range
. Gear position: N/P/R/1-6
INFO:
When using the M range mode, if you are unable
to change to the gear that you want, the position
indicator light will turn off.
Using result screens to improve
driving
This section explains changing gears to suit
driving conditions.
INFO:
The displayed fuel economy level for each gear
is only an estimation and may differ from the
actual fuel economy. Selecting gear for fuel economy:
&1With the most appropriate gear for fuel economy
selected, for the current speed of the vehicle, the
vehicle is being driven in an efficient gear.
Changing gears for engine braking or
power:
&1The best gear for driving power is selected, but in
this example, it is also the least fuel efficient gear.
FUEL ECONOMY SCREEN
The FUEL ECONOMY screen allows you to
verify the fuel efficiency of your driving. Use this
information to make your driving more fuel
efficient.
How to view screen
&1FUEL EFFICIENCY (timeline of fuel economy):
Displays the fuel economy timeline of the past 20
minutes. The vertical readout displays the fuel
economy (on a scale of 10) and the horizontal
readout displays the timeline of the last 20
minutes.
&2RECENT FUEL ECON. (fuel economy over a
given section):
Displays the fuel economy for the past 20
seconds while the vehicle is being driven.
