accident.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper
buckle.
. Do not wear the seat belt inside
out or twisted. Doing so may
reduce its effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one
person to use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the
vehicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light
glows continuously while the
ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all seat belts
fastened, it may indicate a mal-
function in the system. It is re-
commended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
. No changes should be made to
the seat belt system. For exam-
ple, do not modify the seat belt,
add material, or install devices
that may change the seat belt
routing or tension. Doing so may
affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modifying or tam-
pering with the seat belt system
may result in serious personal injury.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with
the retractor. It is recommended
you see a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. Removal and installation of the
pretensioner system components
should be done by a GT-R certi-
fied NISSAN dealer.
. All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching hard-
ware, should be inspected after
any collision by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer. NISSAN recom-
mends that all seat belt assem-
blies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was
minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate
properly. Seat belt assemblies
not in use during a collision
should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or im-
proper operation is noted.
. All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected
after any collision. Always follow
the restraint manufacturer’s in- spection instructions and repla-
cement recommendations. The
child restraints should be re-
placed if they are damaged.

body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn
and the driver and passenger seated
upright as far as practical away from the
side air bags. The side air bags and
curtain air bags inflate quickly in order
to help protect occupants. Because of
this, the force of the side air bags and
curtain air bags inflating can increase the
risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules
during inflation. In a rollover, the curtain
air bags on both sides are designed to
inflate. Under both side-impact situations,
the curtain air bags will remain inflated
for a short period of time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.

.If the vehicle becomes involved in
a collision but the pretensioner is
not activated, it is recommended
to have the pretensioner system
checked and, if necessary, re-
placed by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the pretensioners. This
is to prevent damage to or acci-
dental activation of the preten-
sioners. Tampering with the
pretensioner system may result
in serious personal injury.
. Work around and on the preten-
sioners should be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment
should also be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioners.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. In-
correct disposal procedures
could cause personal injury. The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with
the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat
belt retractor. These seat belts are used
the same way as conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is
released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is not harmful, and it does not
indicate a fire. Care should be taken not
to inhale it as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the
chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light

.The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately
7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/
or pretensioner systems may not operate
properly. They must be checked and
repaired. It is recommended you take
your vehicle to the nearest GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.

.If the AWD warning light blinks on
when you are driving:
— blinks rapidly (about twice a
second):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. The driv-
ing mode will change to RWD
to prevent the AWD system
from malfunctioning. If the
warning light turns off, you
can drive again. This does
not indicate that there is a
malfunction.
— blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. Check
that all tire sizes are the same
as that specified on the Tire
and Loading Information label
located in the driver’s door
opening, tire pressure is cor-
rect and tires are not worn.

Transmission oil temperature high:
The light illuminates if the transmission oil
temperature becomes unusually high. If
the light illuminates, avoid driving at high
speed or at high engine speed until the
light turns off. The light will turn off after a
short period of time and the vehicle can
then be driven normally. If the light
illuminates frequently, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er.
NOTICE
If the light continues to illuminate,
the engine output may be reduced to
prevent transmission damage.
Transmission clutch temperature high:
The light illuminates if clutch temperature
becomes unusually high. If the light
illuminates, pull off the road in a safe area
and idle the engine. When the light turns
off, driving can be resumed. If the light
illuminates frequently, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er.
NOTICE
. Continuing to drive with the light
on could cause serious damage
to the transmission.
. If the light continues to illumi-
nate, the vehicle cannot be driven
because the engine output may
be reduced and the clutch may be
reduced to keep the clutch disen-
gaged.
R mode start function:
If the R mode start function is used 4
times continuously, the function may be
disabled and cannot be turned on for
protection. While the function is disabled,
the warning light illuminates. When the
warning light goes off, the function can
be used again. (

To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45MPH (72 km/h).
2) Avoid hard acceleration or decel- eration.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may
stop blinking and remain on.
It is recommended you have the
vehicle inspected by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer. You do not need to
have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
NOTICE
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, re-
duced fuel economy, and possible
damage to the emission control sys-
tem.
