vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could result in serious 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. . 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. Contact a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer as soon as possible 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. NOTE: . You can check the pressure of all four tires on the multi function display. See the separate Multi Function Display Owner's Manual. The tires of this vehicle are filled with nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is low, fill the tires with nitrogen. Contact a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for information on filling the tires with nitrogen. If nitrogen is not available, compressed air may be safely used under normal driving conditions. However, NISSAN recommends refilling with nitrogen for maximum tire performance. bility is reduced, which could lead to an accident and personal injury. Also, driving a long distance at high speeds may damage 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. Drive safely at reduced speeds. Avoid hard cornering or braking, which may cause you to lose control of the vehicle. . . . RUN-FLAT TIRES Run-flat tires are those tires that can be used "Run-flat temporarily if they are punctured. ( tires" page 8-34) Also, see the tire safety information in the Warranty Information Booklet. NOTICE . Never install tire chains on a punctured run-flat tire, as this could damage your vehicle. Avoid driving over any projection or pothole, as the clearance between the vehicle and the ground is smaller than normal. Do not enter an automated car wash with a punctured run-flat tire.

vehicle
damage
could
occur
and
may lead to an accident and could
result
in
serious
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.
.
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. Con-
tact a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
as soon as possible for tire replace-
ment and/or system resetting.
.
Replacing tires with those not ori-
ginally 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.
NOTE:
.
You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the multi function display. See
the
separate
Multi
Function
Display
Owner’s Manual.
.
The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. Contact
a
GT-R
certified
NISSAN
dealer
for
information
on
filling
the
tires
with
nitrogen.
.
If nitrogen is not available, compressed
air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However, NISSAN
recommends refilling with nitrogen for
maximum tire performance.
RUN-FLAT TIRES
Run-flat tires are those tires that can be used
temporarily if they are punctured. (
“Run-flat
tires” page 8-34)
Also,
see
the
tire
safety
information
in
the
Warranty Information Booklet.
WARNING
.
Although you can continue driving
with a punctured run-flat tire, re-
member that vehicle handling sta-
bility is reduced, which could lead to
an
accident
and
personal
injury.
Also, driving a long distance at high
speeds may damage 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 con-
ditions and other factors.
.
Drive
safely
at
reduced
speeds.
Avoid
hard
cornering
or
braking,
which may cause you to lose control
of the vehicle.
NOTICE
.
Never install tire chains on a punc-
tured
run-flat
tire,
as
this
could
damage your vehicle.
.
Avoid driving over any projection or
pothole, as the clearance between
the vehicle and the ground is smal-
ler than normal.
.
Do not enter an automated car wash
with a punctured run-flat tire.
