. Transmission oil temperature is 284°F
(140°C) or higher:
If the transmission oil temperature
increases to over 284°F (140°C), the
color of the meter display changes to
red. However, the vehicle can continue
to be driven until the temperature
reaches 295°F (146°C). If the oil tem-
perature exceeds 284°F (140°C) while
driving (the color of the meter dis-
played in red), change both the trans-
mission oil and the differential oil after
driving because these fluids have
deteriorated because of the heat.

ENGINE OUTPUT
High altitudeTo protect the engine, engine output is
controlled so that it does not increase at
altitude of approximately 3,281 ft (1,000
m) or higher.Engine output according to the
coolant temperatureThe engine output is controlled at a low
level when the engine coolant tempera-
ture is lower than approximately 158°F
(70°C) or higher than 230°F (110°C). This is
not a malfunction. If the temperature is lower than approxi-
mately 158°F (70°C), drive the vehicle until
it reaches normal operating temperature.
If the temperature is higher than 230°F
(110°C), perform cool-down driving proce-
dure. (
“Cool down” page GTR-14)
When the temperature of the engine
coolant is between 158°F (70°C) and
230°F (110°C), the engine output returns
to normal.
UNEVEN WEAR OF TIRESThe GT-R is equipped with high perfor-
mance, low profile, run-flat tires that are
optimized for performance and handling.
The life of these tires will be less than
those of tires installed on a typical vehicle,
and you are likely to experience uneven
tire wear and tire noise regardless of the
type of tire used.NOISES ARE HEARD WHILE DRIV-

to change the time. Push and
hold the switch to increase the number
every 1 hour. A maximum of 6 hours can
be set.
NOTE:
The default setting is OFF.
Low outside temperature warning:
This alert informs the driver when the
outside air temperature is lower than 37°F
(3°C).
On the ICY screen, push the NEXT switch
to turn this warning ON/OFF.
NOTE:
The default setting is ON.
MaintenanceThis function can be used to set the
various maintenance intervals and to
check the engine oil level. The reminders
shown below are used to notify the driver
of the maintenance intervals.
NOTE:
Because these are displayed based on
the mileage driven, they do not indicate
the actual conditions of the vehicle. Use
these functions only as a reference.
Input the maintenance distance using the
following items:
. On each setting screen, push the

to change the mile-
age. Push and hold the switch to
increase the number every 600 miles
(1,000 km).
. Set to “—” to set no reminders.
. To reset the accumulated mileage to
zero, go to the RESET screen, then
push the NEXT switch
and confirm
with the ENTER switch.
NOTE:
. To restore the mileage to the origi-
nal figure after resetting, push the
NEXT switch
again.
. When the battery terminal is discon-
nected, the set mileage will be
erased and the settings will return
to their default settings.
Engine oil level:
This can be used to check the pre-start oil
level while the engine is running. Select
SETTING > MAINTENANCE > OIL > ENGINE
OIL > LEVEL.
If the low level reminder appears, check
the level using the engine oil dipstick.

Transmission oil:
The reminder is displayed when the
customer set mileage is exceeded. Select
SETTING > MAINTENANCE > OIL > T/M OIL
to set or reset the mileage for the
transmission oil change.
NOTE:
The default setting is 37,000 miles
(60,000 km). The maximum mileage
that can be set is 55,500 miles (90,000
km).
Tires:
This reminder appears when the custo-
mer set distance comes for maintaining
tires. You can set or reset the distance for
maintaining tires. (

coolant temperature is low or higher
than normal.
. If the ignition switch is pushed
before the shift lever is moved to
the
position, the ignition switch
will not change to the OFF position.
If this occurs, the SHIFT
warning
display appears on the vehicle in-
formation display. When stopping
the engine, be sure to move the shift
lever to the
position and then
push the ignition switch. Failure to
do so may result in discharge of the
battery. (“Shift “P” warning”
page 2-46)
. If the shift lever was in the
position when the engine was
stopped, then be sure to move the
shift lever to the
position before
starting the engine the next time. If the engine is started with the shift
lever in the
position, then it may
not be possible to drive the vehicle
even when the shift lever is moved
to the
position. If this
occurs, the SHIFTwarning appears
on the vehicle information display.

CAUTION
If the engine was stopped soon
when the engine is hot, the cooling
fan may operate for approximately 2
minutes after the engine was
stopped to cool the components in
the engine compartment. When the
cooling fan is operating, be sure that
hands or other items do not get
caught in it.
DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSIONThe GT-R dual clutch transmission is a
newly-developed system that uses an
electronically controlled multiple-disc
wet clutch attached to the highly efficient
manual transmission. This transmission
has two driving modes.

and operate the paddle shifter to shift
down to 1st gear similar to a manual
transmission vehicle.
The GT-R dual clutch transmission was
developed specifically to maximize vehi-
cle performance and driving enjoyment.
The GT-R transmission components were
designed using different engineering
standards than typical passenger car
transmissions. Because of this, the GT-R
has different operating characteristics,
and various rattle noises may be heard
during some driving conditions because

Oil viscosityThe engine oil viscosity or thickness
changes with temperature. Because of
this, it is important that the engine oil
viscosity be selected based on the tem-
peratures at which the vehicle will be
operated before the next oil change.
Choosing an oil viscosity other than that
recommended could cause serious en-
gine damage.Selecting the correct oil filterYour new vehicle is equipped with a high-
quality genuine NISSAN oil filter. NISSAN
recommends to use the genuine NISSAN
oil filter for the reason described in

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM RE-
FRIGERANT AND OIL RECOMMEN-
DATIONSThe air conditioner system in your
NISSAN vehicle must be charged with
the refrigerant HFO-1234yf (R-1234yf)
and NISSAN A/C System Oil VC100YF
(PAG) or the exact equivalents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil
will cause severe damage to the air
conditioning system and will require
the replacement of all air conditioner
system components.
The refrigerant HFO-1234yf (R-1234yf) in
your NISSAN vehicle does not harm the
earth’s ozone layer. Although this refrig-
erant does not affect the earth’s atmo-
sphere, certain government regulations
require the recovery and recycling of any
refrigerant during automotive air condi-
tioner system service. Air conditioner
system should only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians to ensure proper
and safe operation (SAE J2845). Your GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer has the trained
technicians and equipment needed to
recover and recycle your air conditioner
system refrigerant. Only new and
SAEJ2842 certified evaporator(s) shall be
used as replacement parts.
A damaged or leaking air conditioning
evaporator shall never be repaired or
replaced with one removed from a used
or salvaged vehicle. To replace a da-
maged or leaking evaporator, use only
new and SAE J2842 certified evaporator
