POWER WINDOWS (if so equipped)IMake sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc. inside the vehicle
before closing the windows. Use the
window lock switch to prevent unex-
pected use of the power windows.
IDo not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls
and become trapped in a window.Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
The power window only operates when the
ignition key is in the ON position.
To open or close the window, push down or
pull up the switch and hold it. The main switch
(driver side switches) will open or close all the
windows.
The power windows are operational for about
45 seconds, even after the ignition key is
turned to the OFF position. If the driver's door
or the front passenger's door is opened during
this period of about 45 seconds, power to the
windows is canceled.
The passenger side switch will open or close
only the corresponding window. To open or
close the window, hold the switch down or up.
Locking passenger's windowWhen the lock button is pushed in, only the
driver side window can be opened or closed.
Push it in again to cancel.

You can only drive your vehicle using the
master keys which are registered to the Nissan
Vehicle Immobiliser System components in
your vehicle. These keys have a transponder
chip in the key head.
The keys can be used for the door, back door
or glove box locks.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Record the key number on the key number
plate supplied with your keys and keep it in a
safe place (such as your wallet), not in the
vehicle. NISSAN does not record any key
number 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, this key
can be duplicated by your NISSAN dealer.
Nissan Vehicle Immobiliser System keys:
The key number is necessary when you need
extra Nissan Vehicle Immobiliser System
keys. As many as 5 Nissan Vehicle Immobil-
iser System keys can be used with one ve-
hicle. New keys must be registered to the
Nissan Vehicle Immobiliser System compo-
nents in your vehicle by your NISSAN dealer.
At this time, you should bring all Nissan Ve-
hicle Immobiliser System keys that you have to
your NISSAN dealer for registration. This is
because the registration process will erase all
memory of the Nissan Vehicle Immobiliser
System components.
IAlways 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.
IBefore opening any door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
IDo not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
