NOTICE
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If gauge is over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the en-
gine. (
“If your vehicle overheats”
page 6-8)
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates the approximatefuel level
in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to E (Empty) after the
ignition switch is pushed to the LOCK position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “E” (Empty) .
The low fuel warning will be indicated on the
vehicle information display when the fuel tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the gauge reaches “E”. There
will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches “E”. (

page 9-13)
If the tire pressure is insuffi-
cient, fill with nitrogen gas.
Contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer about filling with nitro-
gen gas. If nitrogen gas is not
available, compressed air may
be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However,

fully to the nearest service station
for repairs. Otherwise, have your
vehicle towed because driving it
could be dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as

engine misfire has been detected which may
damage the emission control system.
To reduce or avoid emission control system
damage:
a. Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH
(72 km/h). b. Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
c. Avoid steep uphill grades.
d. If possible, reduce the amount of cargo
being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may stop
blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. You do not need
to have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
