ling stability. If necessary, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for assistance.
Frequently check the tire pressure information
display on the monitor screen and adjust
pressure of each tire properly. See the separate
Multi Function Display Owner’s Manual.
It can be difficult to tell if a run-flat tire is under-
inflated or flat. Check the tire pressures as
described earlier in this section. If the tire
becomes under-inflated while driving, the low
tire pressure warning light will come on. If the
tire becomes flat while driving, the low tire
pressure warning light and the run-flat tire
warning display will come on.

Low tire pressure:

If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the low tire pressure warning light will
illuminate.

Flat tire:

If the vehicle is being driven with one or more flat
tires, the run-flat tire warning display will appear
continuously on the vehicle information display
and a chime will sound for 10 seconds.
The chime will only sound at the first indication
of a flat tire and the run-flat tire warning display
will illuminate continuously. When the flat tire
warning is activated, have the system reset and
the tire checked and replaced if necessary by a

GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. Even if the tire is
inflated to the specified COLD tire pressure, the
warning light will continue to illuminate until the
system is reset by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
If the low tire pressure and the run-flat tire
warning appears on the vehicle information
display:
. Do not exceed 50 MPH (80 km/h).
. Increase your following distance to allow for

increased stopping distances.

. Avoid sudden maneuvers, hard cornering

and hard braking.

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 tire.

. 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.

. Have the punctured tire replaced by

a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible, as the tire’s
performance capability is reduced.
