FUEL . Damage to the powertrain or any drivetrain component(s) that occurs when there is a record in the Vehicle Status Data Recorder (VSDR) that the vehicle was driven with VDC off during the period when the damage was incurred is excluded from warranty coverage. WARNING Never use summer tires when the temperature is below −48F (−208C) to prevent permanent tread deformation which may cause tire damage or tire failure. This may cause a loss of vehicle control which can result in serious personal injury or death. NISSAN recommends using fuels that contain no alcohol. However, fuels containing up to 10% alcohol may be used, if necessary. Do not use E"FUEL RECOMMEN85 in your vehicle. ( DATION" page 9-3). NOTICE To avoid serious engine damage due to increased cylinder temperatures, do not use fuels that contain more alcohol than indicated in "Gasoline containing oxygenates" in the "9. Technical and consumer information section. Also, do not use fuel additives, fuel stabilizers or fuel deicers that contain alcohol. See your 2011 Warranty Information Booklet for important related information and warranty coverage exclusions. See also section 2 (page 2-28) and section 5 (page 5-42) of this Owner's Manual, "Transmission Clutch Temperature High" and "Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) System" for important additional related information. ALL-SEASON TIRES Do not exceed the speed rating of the tire that is installed on the vehicle. SUMMER TIRES The GT-R summer tires are made from a specially formulated rubber to maximize the vehicle's performance capabilities. Performance of summer tires is substantially reduced when temperatures are less than 328F (08C) so you must drive carefully. NISSAN recommends the use of winter or all-season tires on all four wheels if you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy conditions when temperatures are less than 328F (08C).

.
Damage to the powertrain or any
drivetrain component(s) that occurs
when there is a record in the Vehicle
Status Data Recorder (VSDR) that
the vehicle was driven with VDC off
during the period when the damage
was incurred is excluded from war-
ranty coverage.
See your 2011 Warranty Information Booklet for
important
related
information
and
warranty
coverage exclusions. See also section 2 (page
2-28) and section 5 (page 5-42) of this Owner’s
Manual,

SUMMER TIRES
The
GT-R
summer
tires
are
made
from
a
specially
formulated
rubber
to
maximize
the
vehicle’s performance capabilities. Performance
of summer tires is substantially reduced when
temperatures are less than 32
8
F (0
8
C) so you
must drive carefully. NISSAN recommends the
use of winter or all-season tires on all four
wheels if you plan to operate your vehicle in
snowy or icy conditions when temperatures are
less than 32
8
F (0
8
C).
WARNING
Never
use
summer
tires
when
the
temperature is below
-
4
8
F (
-
20
8
C) to
prevent permanent tread deformation
which may cause tire damage or tire
failure. This may cause a loss of vehicle
control
which
can
result
in
serious
personal injury or death.
ALL-SEASON TIRES
Do not exceed the speed rating of the tire that is
installed on the vehicle.
NISSAN recommends using fuels that contain
no alcohol. However, fuels containing up to 10%
alcohol may be used, if necessary. Do not use E-
85 in your vehicle. (
“FUEL RECOMMEN-
DATION” page 9-3).
NOTICE
To avoid serious engine damage due to
increased cylinder temperatures, do not
use
fuels
that
contain
more
alcohol
than indicated in “Gasoline containing
oxygenates” in the “9. Technical and
consumer information section. Also, do
not use fuel additives, fuel stabilizers or
fuel deicers that contain alcohol.
