PRECAUTIONS ON PERFORMANCE DRIVING The information and specifications in this section apply only when engaging in performance driving. condition and engine output is reduced. . Engine oil temperature is 2758F (1358C) or higher: If the engine oil temperature is higher than 2758F (1358C), the meter display changes to red, maximum engine speed is automatically limited to 4,000 rpm, and the transmisM sion automatically changes from the & A position. position to the & Transmission oil temperature is 284 8 F (1408C) or higher: If the transmission oil temperature increases to over 2848F (1408C), the color of the meter display changes to red. However, the vehicle can continue to be driven until the temperature reaches 2958F (1468C). If the oil temperature exceeds 2848F (1408C) while driving (the color of the meter displayed in red), change both the transmission oil and the differential oil after driving because these fluids have deteriorated because of the heat. the vehicle if coolant temperatures are extremely high. Drive the vehicle at 37 to 50 MPH (60 to 80 km/h), in 5th or 6th gear for 2 to 3 miles (3 to 5 km) and then stop the engine. Refueling precautions Checking the temperature of the coolant and oils on the multi function display When the temperatures of the engine coolant and oil, and the oil pressure exceed the normal range, the color of the meter on the multi function display changes to red to warn the driver. When engaging in high performance driving, switch the display to the function meter to display the temperature of the engine coolant and oil, and the oil pressure. When the color of the meter display changes to red, perform cool down driving. When the values of the temperature and pressure return to the normal range, the color of the meter display will turn back to white. Warning temperature: . Engine coolant temperature is 230 8 F (1108C) or higher: If the engine coolant temperature increases above 2308F (1108C), the color of the meter display on the multi function display changes to red to warn of a possible overheat . WARNING Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automatically. Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel spray and possibly a fire. The fuel tank is full at the first automatic shutoff. To maximize vehicle performance, the fuel tank is located as low as possible to lower the vehicle center of gravity. The tank is also divided into two parts. This fuel tank design causes higher pressures inside the tank than other vehicles so fuel spillage is possible by trying to top off the fuel tank after automatic shutoff. The fuel tank pressure is higher when the vehicle is hot, especially if the tank is more than half full. If the cap is opened when the vehicle is hot, it may cause fuel spray and there may be a hissing noise. Open the cap slowly, releasing the pressure from the tank gradually. Also, if the GT-R Overview GTR-13 Cool down The information and specifications in this section apply only when engaging in performance driving. Cool down the vehicle to help extend the life of
