1999 NISSAN PATHFINDER light

IDo not use the Integrated HomeLink
Universal Transceiver with any ga-
rage door opener that lacks safety
stop and reverse features as required
by federal safety standards. (These
standards became effective for
opener models manufactured after
April 1, 1982.) A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object in the
path of a closing garage door and
then automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.
IDuring programming, your garage
door or gate may open or close. Make
sure that people and objects are clear
of the garage door or gate that you
are programming.
IYour vehicle's engine should be
turned off while programming the In-
tegrated HomeLink
UniversalTransceiver.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink1. With the ignition key in the OFF position,
press and hold the two outside buttons, and
release when the indicator light begins to
flash (approximately 20 seconds). This pro-
cedure erases the factory set default codes
and does not have to be followed when
programming additional hand-held trans-
mitters.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter
(from the device you wish to train) approxi-
mately 2 to 5 inches (50 to 127 mm) away
from the surface of HomeLink
keeping the
indicator light in view.SPA0609A

3. Using both hands, simultaneously push the
hand-held transmitter button and the de-
sired HomeLink
button. Do not release the
buttons until step 4 has been completed.
NOTE:
Some garage door openers may require
the procedures noted under ªCanadian
Programmingº.
4. The HomeLinkindicator light will flash,
first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapid flashing light
indicates the Integrated HomeLink
Univer-
sal Transceiver has been successfully pro-
grammed.
To program the remaining two buttons, follow
steps 2 through 4.
If, after repeated attempts, you do not suc-
cessfully program the Integrated HomeLink
Universal Transceiver to learn the signal of the
hand-held transmitter, refer to ªRolling Code
Programmingº later in this section.CANADIAN PROGRAMMINGPrior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required
hand-held transmitters to stop transmitting af-
ter 2 seconds. To program your hand-held
transmitter to HomeLink
, continue to pressand hold the HomeLink
button (note steps 2
through 4 under ªProgramming HomeLink
º)
while you press and re-press (ªcycleº) your
hand-held transmitter every 2 seconds until
the indicator light flashes rapidly (indicating
successful programming).
NOTE:
If programming a garage door opener, etc.,
it is advised to unplug the device during
the ªcyclingº process to prevent possible
damage to the garage door opener compo-
nents.
OPERATING THE INTEGRATED
HomeLink
UNIVERSAL
TRANSCEIVER
The Integrated HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver (once programmed) may now be used
to activate the garage door, etc. To operate,
simply press the appropriate programmed In-
tegrated HomeLink
Universal Transceiver
button. The red indicator light will illuminate
while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING
PROBLEM-DIAGNOSISIf the HomeLink
does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:Ireplace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
Iposition the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the
HomeLink
surface.
Ipress and hold both the HomeLink
and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
Iposition the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5
inches (50 to 127 mm) away from the
HomeLink
surface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLinkis not programmed within that
time, try holding the transmitter in another
position - keeping the indicator light in view
at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficul-
ties, please contact the NISSAN Consumer
Affairs Department. The phone numbers are
located in the Foreword of this Owner's
Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATIONIndividual buttons cannot be cleared, however
to clear all programming, press and hold the
two outside buttons and release when the

indicator light begins to flash (approximately
20 seconds).ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMINGRolling code garage door openers (or other
rolling code devices) which are ªcode pro-
tectedº and manufactured after 1996, may be
determined by the following.
A. Reference the garage door opener Owner's
Manual for verification.
B. The hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the Integrated HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver but does not activate the ga-
rage door.
C. Press and hold the trained HomeLink
but-
ton. If the garage door opener has the
rolling code feature, the HomeLink
indica-
tor light will flash rapidly, then remains on
after 2 seconds.
To program the Integrated HomeLinkUniver-
sal Transceiver to a garage door opener with
the rolling code feature, follow these instruc-
tions after completing the ªProgramming
HomeLink
º (the aid of a second person may
make the following procedures quicker and
easier).
1. Locate the training button on the garage
door opener motor unit. Exact location andcolor of the button may vary by garage door
opener brand. If there is difficulty locating
the training button, reference the garage
door opener Owner's Manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage
door opener motor unit (which may activate
a training light).
NOTE:
Following step 2, there are 30 seconds
in which to initiate step 3.
3. Firmly press and release the programmed
HomeLink
button. Press and release the
HomeLinkbutton a second time to com-
plete the training process. (Some garage
door openers may require you to do this
procedure a third time to complete the
training.)
The garage door opener should now recognize
the Integrated HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver and activate when the HomeLink
but-
ton is pressed. The remaining two buttons may
now be programmed (if not yet programmed,
follow steps 2 through 4 in the ªProgramming
HomeLink
º procedures earlier in this section).
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink
BUTTON
To reprogram an Integrated HomeLink
Uni-versal Transceiver button, complete the follow-
ing.
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button.Do notrelease the button until step
4 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash
slowly (after 20 seconds), position the
hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 inches (50 to
127 mm) away from the HomeLink
sur-
face.
3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter
button.
4. The HomeLink
indicator light will flash,
first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light begins to flash rapidly, re-
lease both buttons.
The Integrated HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver button has now been reprogrammed.
The new device can be activated by pushing
the HomeLink
button that was just pro-
grammed. This procedure will not affect any
other programmed HomeLink
buttons.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLENIf your vehicle is stolen, you should change the
codes of any non-rolling code device that has
been programmed into HomeLink
. Consult

FUEL FILLER CAPThe fuel filler cap is a screw-on ratcheting
type. Tighten the cap clockwise until ratcheting
clicks are heard.IGasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused or mis-
handled. Always stop the engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames orsparks near the vehicle when refuel-
ing.
IFuel may be under pressure. Turn the
cap one-half turn, and wait for any
hissing sound to stop to prevent fuel
from spraying out and possible per-
sonal injury. Then remove the cap.
IDo not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling
may cause fuel over-flow, resulting in
fuel spray and possibly a fire.
IUse only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler
cap as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper opera-
tion of the fuel system and emission
control system. An incorrect cap can
result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury.
INever pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle.
IIf fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
ITighten until cap clicks, failure to
tighten fuel cap properly may cause
the
malfunction indicator light
(MIL) to illuminate. If this occurs, se-
curely close the fuel filler cap. After
driven for a while, the light should
remain off. If the light remains on,
have the vehicle inspected by an au-
thorized NISSAN dealer.
For additional information, see the
ªMalfunction indicator light (MIL)º in
the ª2. Instruments and controlsº
section.
