CAUTION

Do not leave the ignition key inside the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

A key number plate is supplied with your
keys. Record the key number and keep it in
a safe place (such as your wallet), not in the
vehicle. If you lose your keys, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
duplicates by using the key number.

NISSAN does not record key numbers so it
is very important to keep track of your key
number plate.

A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, it can
be duplicated without knowing the key
number.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. The
new keys must be registered prior to use
with the Intelligent Key and NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. Since the registration pro-
cess requires erasing all memory in the
Intelligent Key components, when register-
ing new keys, be sure to take all Intelligent
Keys that you have to a NISSAN dealer.

A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, it can
be duplicated without knowing the key
number.

CAUTION

Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the Intelli-
gent Key:

∙ Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which

contains electrical components, to
come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect the system
function.

∙ Do not drop the Intelligent Key.

∙ Do not strike the Intelligent Key

sharply against another object.

∙ Do not change or modify the Intelli-

gent Key.

∙ Wetting may damage the Intelligent

Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im-
mediately wipe until it is completely
dry.

∙ Do not place the Intelligent Key for an

extended period in an area where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C).

∙ Do not attach the Intelligent Key with

a key holder that contains a magnet.

∙ Do not place the Intelligent Key near

equipment that produces a magnetic
field, such as a TV, audio equipment
and personal computers.

If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen,
NISSAN recommends erasing the ID
code of that Intelligent Key from the ve-
hicle. This may prevent the unauthor-
ized use of the Intelligent Key to oper-
ate

the

vehicle.

For

information

regarding the erasing procedure, it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Mechanical key

The Intelligent Key contains the mechani-
cal key.

To remove the mechanical key, release the
lock knob on the back of the Intelligent Key.

To install the mechanical key, firmly insert it
into the Intelligent Key until the lock knob
returns to the lock position.

Use the mechanical key to lock or unlock
the driver’s door.

CAUTION

Always carry the mechanical key in-
stalled in the Intelligent Key slot.

For additional information, refer to “Doors”
in this section.

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS

You can only drive your vehicle using the
keys which are registered to the NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System components
in your vehicle.

A mechanical key can be used for all the
locks.

Never leave the keys in the vehicle.

Additional or replacement keys:

If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System keys. Your ex-
isting key can be duplicated without know-
ing the key number. As many as four
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System keys
can be used with one vehicle. You should
bring all NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer Sys-
tem keys that you have to a NISSAN dealer
for registration. This is because the regis-
tration process will erase the memory of all

key codes previously registered into the
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System. After
the registration process, these compo-
nents will only recognize keys coded into
the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
during registration. Any key that is not
given to the dealer at the time of registra-
tion will no longer be able to start your
vehicle.

CAUTION

Do not allow the immobilizer system
key, which contains an electrical tran-
sponder, to come into contact with wa-
ter or salt water. This could affect sys-
tem function.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the inside or outside door
handles. The doors must be unlocked to
open the doors.

WARNING

∙ Always have the doors locked while

driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help
keep out intruders.

∙ Before opening any door, always look

for and avoid oncoming traffic.

∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, including
entrapment in windows and/or inad-
vertent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require the
assistance of others and/or pets un-
attended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.

CAUTION

∙ Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key

with you when operating the vehicle.

∙ Never leave the Intelligent Key in the

vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key is always communicat-
ing with the vehicle as it receives radio
waves. The Intelligent Key system trans-
mits weak radio waves. Environmental
conditions may interfere with the opera-
tion of the Intelligent Key system under the
following operating conditions:

∙ When operating near a location where

strong radio waves are transmitted,
such as a TV tower, power station and
broadcasting station.

∙ When in possession of wireless equip-

ment, such as a cellular telephone,
transceiver or a CB radio.

∙ When the Intelligent Key is in contact

with or covered by metallic materials.

∙ When any type of radio wave remote

control is used nearby.

∙ When the Intelligent Key is placed near

an electric appliance such as a personal
computer.

∙ When the vehicle is parked near a park-

ing meter.

In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key func-
tion or use the mechanical key.

Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the
battery’s life is approximately two years. If
the battery is discharged, replace it with a
new one.

When the Intelligent Key battery is low, the
Intelligent Key system warning light (

)

will blink green for about 30 seconds after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON po-
sition.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and per-
sonal computer, the battery life may be-
come shorter.

For information regarding replacement of
a battery, refer to “Battery replacement” in
the “Do-it-yourself ” section of this manual.

As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For
information about the purchase and use of

additional Intelligent Keys, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

CAUTION

Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the Intelli-
gent Key:
