2009 Nissan GT-R Owner's Manual - Page 241

MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENT Your new NISSAN has been designed to have minimum maintenance requirements with long service intervals to save you both time and money. However, some day-to-day and regular maintenance is essential to maintain your NISSAN's fine mechanical condition, as well as its emission and engine performance. It is the owner's responsibility to make sure that the scheduled maintenance, as well as general maintenance, is performed. As the vehicle owner, you are the only one who can ensure that your vehicle receives the proper maintenance care. You are a vital link in the maintenance chain. Performing general maintenance checks requires minimal mechanical skill and only a few general automotive tools. These checks or inspections can be done by yourself, a qualified technician or, if you prefer, a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. To find a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer near you, call 1-866-668-1GTR in the US or 1-800387-0122 in Canada, or go to www. gtrnissan. com/. WHERE TO GO FOR SERVICE GT-R certified NISSAN dealers are required to have additional training and equipment and are the only NISSAN dealers authorized to perform warranty work on key vehicle performance systems such as engine, transmission, suspension and brakes. If maintenance service is required or your vehicle appears to malfunction, have the systems checked and serviced by a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. NISSAN technicians are well-trained specialists and are kept up to date with the latest service information through technical bulletins, service tips, and in-dealer information systems. They are completely qualified to work on NISSAN vehicles before work begins. You can be confident that a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer's service department performs the best job to meet the maintenance requirements on your vehicle - in a reliable and economical way. SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE For your convenience, both required and optional scheduled maintenance items are described and listed in your "NISSAN Service and Maintenance Guide". You must refer to that guide to ensure that necessary maintenance is performed on your NISSAN at regular intervals. GENERAL MAINTENANCE General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during normal dayto-day operation. They are essential for proper vehicle operation. It is your responsibility to perform these procedures regularly as prescribed. 8-2 Maintenance and do-it-yourself
