Record the key number on the key number
plate and keep it in a safe place (such as
your wallet), NOT IN THE CAR. A key
number plate is supplied with your key. Keep
the plate in a safe place. NISSAN does not
record key numbers so it is very important to
keep track of your key number plate.
A key number is necessary only when you
have lost all vehicle keys and do not have
one to duplicate from. If you still have a key,
this key can be duplicated by your NISSAN
dealer or locksmith shop.
Two keys are supplied with your vehicle Ð
one has a plastic head and one is all metal.
Both keys perform the same functions.
