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 possi-
ble. If the engine is overheated,
continued operation of the vehicle
may seriously damage the engine.

“If your vehicle overheats” page
6-8)
FUEL GAUGEThe gauge indicates the approximate
fuel 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”. (

mended you have the vehicle inspected
by a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.

Brake warning light
This light functions for both the parking
brake and the foot brake systems.
WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS

Parking brake indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light comes on when the
parking brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake
fluid level. If the light comes on while the
engine is running with the parking brake
not applied, stop the vehicle and perform
the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brakefluid as necessary. (
“Brake fluid”
page 8-11)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, it is recommended you have the warning
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and
the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both
the brake warning light and the Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light illu-
minate, it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning properly. It is recommended
you have the brake system checked, and
if necessary repaired, by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer promptly. (
“Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light” page 2-29)
Brake pad wear warning indicator
(models with NCCB (NISSAN Carbon
Ceramic Brake) package):
When the brake warning light illuminates,
it may indicate that there is brake pad
wear. Have the brake system checked
and brake pads replaced as soon as
possible. It is recommended you contact
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for this
service.
WARNING
.
Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning
light is on. Driving could be dan-
gerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the
brake fluid reservoir, do not drive
until the brake system has been
checked. It is recommended you
contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging
system is not functioning properly. Turn
the engine off and check the alternator
belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing or
if the light remains on, it is recommended
you see a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
immediately.

use the dipstick to check the oil level.
(
“Engine oil level display” page 2-13)
