LOW FUEL WARNING
This will appear when the fuel level in the tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the fuel gauge reaches the
empty (E) position.
This displays the approximate distance that the
vehicle can be driven based on the amount of
fuel remaining in the fuel tank and the actual fuel
consumption. NOTE:
.
The low fuel warning will appear when
the amount of fuel remaining in the
tank decreases to approximately 3 US
gallons (12 liters) .
. The timing of the low fuel warning
display may change depending on
braking, turning, acceleration, or going
up or down hills.
. If the vehicle is not refueled after the
low fuel warning appears, the display
will change to “
”. This change
timing may become earlier depending
on the driving conditions. This does not
indicate that there is a malfunction.

3-4Pre-driving checks and adjustments
WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping
to prevent persons from being
thrown from the vehicle. This also
helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
. Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
CAUTION
To prevent theft or accidents, be sure to
stop the engine and lock the doors
before stepping away from the vehicle.
NOTICE
When the battery cable is removed from
the battery terminal, do not close either
of the front doors. The automatic win-
dow adjusting function will not work,
and the side roof panel may be da-
maged. (
“Automatic adjusting
function” page 2-60)
NOTE:
. The doors of this vehicle are somewhat
harder to close than those of an
ordinary vehicle (especially when the
vehicle is new) . This is because the
stiffness of the rubber has been in-
creased to improve the airtightness of
the vehicle interior during situations
such as higher speed driving. This does
not indicate that there is a malfunction.
. When the driver’s door is locked or
unlocked, the fuel-filler door is auto-
matically locked or unlocked at the
same time.
When the door is being opened, the window is
automatically lowered slightly to avoid contact
between the window and the side roof panel.
When the door is closed, the window is automatically raised slightly. (
“Automatic
adjusting function” page 2-60)
DOORS

3. Turning the door key cylinder to the front ofthe vehicle
*1will lock the driver’s door,
and turning to the rear of the vehicle
*2will
unlock the driver’s door.
4. Replace the key cylinder cap in the reverse order.
NOTICE
Do not drive with the cap removed.
Water that enters through the keyhole
may cause a malfunction. NOTE:
.
Do not pull too hard on the door handle
when locking or unlocking the doors.
Pulling too hard will prevent the me-
chanical key from turning, making it
impossible to lock or unlock the doors.
. Unlocking the driver’s door using the
mechanical key will not unlock the fuel-
filler door.
OPENING THE DOORS
Opening from outside the vehicle
1. Press the rear end of the outside door

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-7

— When any type of radio wave remotecontrol is used nearby.
— When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric appliance such as a personal
computer.
— When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter.
. Although the life of the battery varies
depending on the operating conditions, the
battery’s life is approximately 2 years. If the
battery is discharged, replace it with a new
one. (
“Intelligent Key battery replace-
ment” page 8-26)
. Since the Intelligent Key is continuously
receiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and
personal computer, the battery life may
become shorter.
. Because the steering wheel is locked
electrically, unlocking the steering wheel
with the ignition switch in the LOCK position
is impossible when the vehicle battery is
completely discharged. Pay special atten-
tion that the vehicle battery is not completely
discharged.
. Do not push the door handle request switch
with the Intelligent Key held in your hand. The close distance to the door handle will
cause the Intelligent Key system to have
difficulty recognizing that the Intelligent Key
is outside the vehicle.
. After locking the doors, check that the doors
are securely locked by testing them.
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from being left
inside the vehicle, make sure you carry the
key with you and then lock the doors.
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from being left
inside the trunk, make sure you carry the key
with you and then close the trunk.
. Do not pull the door handle before pushing
the door handle request switch. The door
will be unlocked but will not open. Release
the door handle once and pull it again to
open the door.

.When the Intelligent Key battery is
discharged or strong radio waves are
present near the operating location,
the Intelligent Key system’s operating
range becomes narrower, and the In-
telligent Key may not function properly.

From the passenger compartment
The trunk can be opened with the emergency
trunk lid opener located on the floor in front of
the passenger’s seat.
1. Remove the board located on the floor infront of the passenger’s seat.
2. Insert the mechanical key into the emer-gency trunk lid opener and turn it clockwise
until it stops.
NOTE:
Because the trunk rigidity has been in-
creased to handle the high load on the rear
spoiler during vehicle operation, more
force is required to operate the mechanical
key (particularly when the vehicle is new) .
Be sure to turn the key clockwise until it
stops.
The fuel-filler door is located on the right and
rear side of the vehicle.
WARNING
. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive under certain
conditions. You could be burned or
seriously injured if it is misused or
mishandled. Always stop engine
and do not smoke or allow open
flames or sparks near the vehicle
when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Continued
refueling may cause fuel overflow,
resulting in fuel spray and possibly
a fire.
. Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It
has a built-in safety valve needed
for proper operation of the fuel
system and emission control sys-
tem. An incorrect cap can result in a
serious malfunction and possible
injury. It could also cause the mal-
function indicator light to come on.

.Never pour fuel into the throttle
body to attempt to start your vehi-
cle.
. Do not fill a portable fuel container
in the vehicle or trailer. Static elec-
tricity can cause an explosion of
flammable liquid, vapor or gas in
any vehicle or trailer. To reduce the
risk of serious injury or death when
filling portable fuel containers:
— Always place the container on
the ground when filling.
— Do not use electronic devices when filling.
— Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are
filling it.
— Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.

light illuminates because the fuel-
filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to
drive the vehicle. The
light
should turn off after a few driving
trips. If the
light does not turn
off after a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
