warning NISSAN GT-R 2022 Owners Manual

OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TRUNKWhen opening the trunk, first unlock it
then lift up the trunk lid so that it is fully
open.
When closing the trunk, lower the trunk
lid and press it until it is securely locked in
place. The strap
(except for carbon
trunk lid models) or the handle
(for
carbon trunk lid models) can be used
when the trunk lid is dirty.
NOTICE
. Open and close the trunk without
grasping the rear spoiler. Grasp-
ing the rear spoiler to open or
close the trunk may damage the
spoiler.
. Do not leave the key inside the
trunk.
NOTE:
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being accidentally locked in the
trunk, lockout protection is
equipped with the Intelligent Key
system. When the trunk lid is closed
with the Intelligent Key inside the
trunk, the outside buzzer will sound and the trunk will open.
. The trunk of this vehicle is slightly
more difficult to close than an or-
dinary vehicle (particularly when the
vehicle is new). This is because the
trunk rigidity has been increased to
handle the high load on the rear
spoiler during vehicle operation.
This does not indicate that there is
a malfunction. Check that the trunk
is securely locked.
EMERGENCY TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them
from playing and becoming locked
in the trunk where they could be
seriously injured. Keep the car
locked, with the trunk lid securely
latched, when not in use, and pre-
vent children’s access to Intelligent
Keys.
The emergency trunk lid release mechan-

switch
or apply glass cleaner on
them. Doing so will reduce the sensi-
tivity of the sensor, resulting in im-
proper operation.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING
Objects viewed in the outside mirror
on the passenger side are closer
than they appear. Be careful when
moving to the right. Using only this
mirror could cause an accident. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances
to other objects.
The outside mirror will operate only when
the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON position.

WARNING
.Do not breathe exhaust gases;
they contain colorless and odor-
less carbon monoxide. Carbon
monoxide is dangerous. It can
cause unconsciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive
with all windows fully open, and
have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
. Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for any extended
length of time.
. Keep the trunk lid closed while
driving, otherwise exhaust gases
could be drawn into the passen-
ger compartment. If you must
drive with the trunk lid open,
follow these precautions:
a. Open all the windows.
b. Set the
air recirculation to
off and the fan control to high
to circulate the air. .
The exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a quali-
fied mechanic whenever:
— The vehicle is raised for ser-
vice.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the
passenger compartment.
— You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident involving damage to the ex-
haust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYSTThe three-way catalyst is an emission
control device installed in the exhaust
system. Exhaust gases in the three-way
catalyst are burned at high temperatures
to help reduce pollutants.

.You can also check the pressure of all
tires on the touch screen display.
Refer to the separate Multi Function
Display Owner’s Manual.
. The tire pressure sensor should be
reset anytime the wheels or tires are
removed or replaced.
. If the tire is removed in order to
replace the tire pressure sensor bat-
tery, it may not be possible to reuse
the removed tire from the wheel. To
replace the tire pressure sensor bat-
tery, it is recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
.If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneu-
vers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires
and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in ser-
ious personal injury. Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light off. If
the light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat
(
“Run-flat tires” page 6-4) or
the TPMS may be malfunctioning.
If no tire is flat and all tires are
properly inflated, have the vehicle
checked. It is recommended you
have the vehicle checked by a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
. Although you can continue driv-
ing with a punctured run-flat tire,
remember that vehicle handling
stability is reduced, which could
lead to an accident and personal
injury. Also, driving a long dis-
tance at high speeds may da-
mage the tires.
. Do not drive at speeds above 50
MPH (80 km/h) and do not drive
more than 50 miles (80 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual
distance the vehicle can be driven
on a flat tire depends on outside
temperature, vehicle load, road conditions and other factors.
. When a wheel is replaced, the
TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1
minute. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. It is recommended
you contact your GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer as soon as possi-
ble for tire replacement and/or
system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not
originally specified by NISSAN
could affect the proper operation
of the TPMS.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or
aerosol tire sealant into the tires,
as this may cause a malfunction
of the tire pressure sensors.
NOTICE
.The TPMS may not function prop-
erly when the wheels are
equipped with tire chains or the
wheels are buried in snow.
. The TPMS may not function prop-
erly if the TPMS sensor is not
reset and when wheels/tires from

another GT-R are installed on
your vehicle.
. The TPMS will not function prop-
erly if non-GT-R wheels are in-
stalled on the vehicle.
. Do not place metalized film or
any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on
the windows. This may cause
poor reception of the signals
from the tire pressure sensors,
and the TPMS will not function
properly.
Some devices and transmitters may tem-
porarily interfere with the operation of
the TPMS and cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. Some exam-
ples are:
. Facilities or electric devices using
similar radio frequencies are near the
vehicle.
. If a transmitter set to similar frequen-
cies is being used in or near the
vehicle.
. If a computer (or similar equipment) or
a DC/AC converter is being used in or
near the vehicle.
Low tire pressure warning light may
illuminate in the following cases. .
If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel
and tire without TPMS.
. If the TPMS has been replaced and the
ID has not been registered.
. If the wheel is not originally specified
by NISSAN.

WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a
safe and prudent manner may result
in loss of control or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times.
Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid exces-
sive speed, high speed cornering, or
sudden steering maneuvers, because
these driving practices could cause you
to lose control of your vehicle. As with
any vehicle, a loss of control could
result in a collision with other vehicles
or objects, or cause the vehicle to roll-
over, particularly if the loss of control
causes the vehicle to slide sideways. Be
attentive at all times, and avoid driving
when tired. Never drive when under the
influence of alcohol or drugs (including
prescription or over-the-counter drugs
which may cause drowsiness). Always
wear your seat belt as outlined in this
manual, and also instruct your passen-
gers to do so. (

dually stop the vehicle.
6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and contact a roadside emergency
service to change the tire.
DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND
DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of
alcohol or drugs. Alcohol in the
bloodstream reduces coordination,
delays reaction time and impairs
judgement. Driving after drinking
alcohol increases the likelihood of
being involved in an accident injuring
yourself and others. Additionally, if
you are injured in an accident, alco-
hol can increase the severity of the
injury.
NISSAN is committed to safe driving.
However, you must choose not to drive
under the influence of alcohol. Every year
thousands of people are injured or killed
in alcohol-related accidents. Although the
local laws vary on what is considered to
be legally intoxicated, the fact is that
alcohol affects all people differently and
most people underestimate the effects of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t
mix! And that is true for drugs, too (over-
the-counter, prescription, and illegal
drugs). Don’t drive if your ability to oper-
ate your vehicle is impaired by alcohol,
drugs, or some other physical condition.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) DRIVING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
.
Do not drive beyond the perfor-
mance capability of the tires,
even with AWD engaged. Acceler-
ating quickly, sharp steering
maneuvers or sudden braking
may cause loss of control.
. Always use the specified tires on
all four wheels. Install tire chains
on the rear wheels when driving
on slippery roads and drive care-
fully.
. This vehicle is not designed for
offroad (rough road) use. Do not
drive on sandy or muddy roads
that tires may get stuck in.
. Do not attempt to raise two
wheels off the ground and shift the transmission to any
position with the engine run-
ning. Doing so may result in
drivetrain damage or unexpected
vehicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
. Do not attempt to test an AWD
equipped vehicle on a 2-wheel
dynamometer, (such as the dy-
namometers used by some
states for emissions testing), or
similar equipment even if the
other two wheels are raised off
the ground. Make sure you inform
test facility personnel that your
vehicle is equipped with AWD
before it is placed on a dynam-
ometer. Using the wrong test
equipment may result in drive-
train damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
. When a wheel is off the ground
due to an unlevel surface, do not
spin the wheel excessively.
