steering wheel NISSAN GT-R 2014 R35 Multi Function Display Owner's Guide

Predicted course lines*6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the shift lever is in the "R"
(Reverse) position and the steering wheel is
turned. The predicted course lines will move
depending on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the
steering wheel is in the neutral position.
How to adjust RearView screen
To adjust the Brightness, Tint, Color, Contrast
and Black Level of the RearView Monitor, press
with the RearView Monitor on,
select the "Display" key on the screen and select
the item key and adjust the level using the center
dial.
Do not adjust the Brightness, Tint, Color,
Contrast and Black Level of the RearView
Monitor while the vehicle is moving.
ABOUT REARVIEW MONITOR
Difference between predicted and
actual distances
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
guide line should be used as a reference only
when the vehicle is on a level, paved surface.
The distance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different from the
actual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects. Backing up on a steep uphill:
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to
the place
*A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m)
distance on the hill is the place
*B. Note that
any object on the hill is further than it appears on
Monitor system9-3

the object projects over the actual backing up
course.WARNING
.Always turn and check that it is safe
to park your car before backing up.
Always back up slowly.
. Use the displayed lines as a refer-
ence. The lines are highly affected
by the number of occupants, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condi-
tion and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with differ-
ent sized tires, the predicted course
line may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predicted course line and the
actual course line.
. If the battery is disconnected or
becomes discharged, the predicted
course lines may be displayed in-
correctly. If this occurs, drive the
vehicle on a straight road for more
than 5 minutes.
. When the steering wheel is turned
with the ignition switch in the ACC
position, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly. .
The displayed line will appear
slightly off to the right because the
rear view camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the
vehicle width guide line should be
used as a reference only when the
vehicle is on a level paved surface.
The distance viewed on the monitor
is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a
hill, objects viewed in the monitor
are further than they appear. When
backing up the vehicle down a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
closer than they appear. Use the
inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge dis-
tances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES

9-6Monitor system
1. Visually check that the parking space is safebefore parking your vehicle.
2. The RearView of the vehicle is displayed on the screen
*Aas illustrated when the shift
lever is moved to the "R" (Reverse) position.
3. Slowly back up the vehicle, adjusting the steering wheel so that the predicted course
lines
*Benter the parking space*C.
4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make the vehicle width guide lines
*Dparallel to the
parking space
*Cwhile referring to the
predicted course lines. 5. When the vehicle is parked in the space
completely, move the shift lever to the
"P"(Park) position and apply the parking
brake
OPERATING TIPS
.When the shift lever is shifted to the "R"
(Reverse) position, the monitor screen auto-
matically changes to the RearView Monitor
mode. However, the radio can be heard.
. It may take some time until the RearView
Monitor is displayed after the shift lever has
been shifted to "R" from another position or
to another position from "R". Objects may be
distorted momentarily until the RearView
Monitor screen is displayed completely.
. When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects. This is not a malfunction.
. When strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
This is not a malfunction.
. The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from those of
the actual object.

STEERING SCREEN
The steering screen allows you to confirm how
the vehicle responds to your driving by display-
ing the results of how you operate the vehicle.
The results of your driving are displayed as a
timeline of the g-force exerted on the vehicle.
Use the displayed information to improve your
steering smoothness.
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.
. Red zone readings are configured to
function only as a guide for smooth
driving. The readings are not in-
tended to prevent accidents caused
by reckless driving.
How to view screen
&1CORNERING G (timeline graph of lateral g-
force):
Displays the lateral g-force exerted on the
vehicle. The horizontal readout displays lateral
g-force while the vertical readout displays a
timeline of the past 20 seconds of driving. G-
force exerted on the vehicle when turning left is
displayed on the right side of the screen. G-force
exerted on the vehicle when turning right is
displayed on the left side of the screen. The g-
force timeline will begin to scroll down auto-
matically after a short period of time.
&2Red zone display:
The color of the graph will change when the level
of g-force exerted on the vehicle while decelerat-
ing exceeds a preset level.
&3G-meter:
Displays the g-force currently being exerted on
the vehicle due to deceleration.
&4SPEED:
Displays the current driving speed.
&5STEERING:
Displays the angle of the steering wheel.
INFO:
. The extent to which the steering of the
vehicle is displayed on the meter may vary
depending on the vehicle speed.
. 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.

Using result screens to improve
driving
This section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother.
INFO:
The criteria for smooth driving may vary depend-
ing on road conditions. Use this information for
reference purposes only.
Timeline and driving that show smooth
handling when driving through S-curve:
&1Turn the steering wheel slowly and the angle of
the graph slopes gently.
&2Turning the wheel slowly through the turn will
result in a smooth, curving line.
&3By turning the steering wheel slowly back to its
previous position, the line on the graph timeline
returns to its standard position and the vehicle
stabilizes.
Timeline and driving that show sudden
turning of steering wheel:
&1Because the wheel is turned quickly, the buildup
of the line is very sudden.
&2When the wheel is turned back quickly, the
resulting line appears as a point.
&3When the steering wheel is being turned in an
erratic manner, the vehicle is veering abruptly.
Because of this, the line on the panel fluctuates
without settling.
GEAR POSITION SCREEN
The GEAR POSITION screen displays the gear
you are currently in, the current speed, and the
fuel economy level for each gear. This allows you
to verify the best gear to use at your current
driving speed. Use this panel to improve your
operation of the shift lever or paddle shifters.
How to view screen
&1GEAR EFFICIENCY (displays the fuel economy
level):
Displays the current fuel economy level of each
gear. The lighter the blue color displayed, the
better the fuel economy will be. The lighter the
red color displayed, the higher the torque will be.
&2Speedometer (vertical):
Displays the current speed. This scale changes
with the speed of the vehicle.
