GT-R SPECIFIC VEHICLE CHARACTERISTICS REFUELING PRECAUTIONS vehicle has cooled. ENGINE SPEED IS RESTRICTED To help protect the engine, the maximum engine speed is automatically controlled in the following conditions: . Revving the engine with the shift lever in the P or & N position: The maximum engine & GASOLINE SMELL 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 vehicle is refueled when the vehicle is hot, the fuel pump may automatically shut off before the tank is full. This does not indicate that there is a malfunction. Refuel slowly or refuel after the The fuel temperature is higher when the vehicle is hot. This may cause a gasoline smell from the vehicle. This does not indicate that there is a malfunction. The smell will go away when the fuel temperature has cooled. speed is 5,000 RPM . Revving the engine when the engine oil is at a low (below 328F (08C)) or extremely high (over 2758F (1358C)) temperature: The maximum engine speed is 4,000 RPM (The M position will automatically change to the & A position.) & OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY INDICATES HIGHER TEMPERATURE Heat from the engine compartment, radiator and intercoolers can affect the outside temperature display. The outside temperature display may indicate a higher than actual temperature while driving or stopped. This is normal. ENGINE OUTPUT High altitude To protect the engine, engine output is controlled so that it does not increase at altitudes 4,922 ft (1,500 meters) or higher. IDLE SPEED IS NOT STEADY The idle speed may not be steady when the engine compartment is extremely hot. This is normal. The engine speed will be steady when the engine cools down. In this case, the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may come on. After a few driving trips, the MIL should turn off. If the light remains on after a few driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. Engine output according to the coolant temperature The engine output is controlled at a low level when the engine coolant temperature is lower than approximately 1588F (708C) or higher than 2308F (1108C). This is not a malfunction. If the temperature is lower than approximately GTR-24 GT-R Overview
