A key number plate is supplied with your
key. Record the key number and keep it in a
safe place (such as your wallet), NOT IN
THE CAR. 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. If you still have a key, this
key can be duplicated by an authorized
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.
WARNING
c
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.
cBefore opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
c
Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
CAUTION
cAlways use the door handle to open
or close a sliding door. Do not at-
tempt to open or close the doors by
merely placing your hand on the
door edge or door slide roller, as this
may cause injury.
