2002 NISSAN MAXIMA battery

The HomeLink
Universal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver power
will automatically turn off 30 minutes after the
ignition switch has been turned to the off
position.
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver:
IWill operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
IIs powered by your vehicle's battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle's battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink
will retain all program-
ming.
Once the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For addi-
tional information, refer to ªProgramming
HomeLink
º later in this section.
WARNING
IDo not use the HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by fed-
eral safety standards. (These stan-
dards 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 auto-
matically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases 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 theHomeLink
Universal Transceiver.

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 HomeLink
Universal Transceiver
but does not activate the garage 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 HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver to a garage door opener with the rolling
code feature, follow these instructions 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 and
color 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 HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver and ac-
tivate when the HomeLink
button is pressed.
The remaining two buttons may now be pro-
grammed (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 a HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver button, complete the following.
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button.Do notrelease the button until step
4 has been completed.

Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfob can operate at a distance of ap-
proximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the condi-
tions around the vehicle.)
As many as four keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the pur-
chase and use of additional keyfob, contact
your NISSAN dealer.
The keyfob will not function when:
Ithe battery is dead,
Ithe distance between the vehicle and the
keyfob is over 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm will not activate when the
key is in the ignition switch.
CAUTION
The following conditions or occurrences
will damage the keyfob.
IDo not allow the keyfob to become
wet.

PROCEDURE FOR STORING
MEMORYTwo positions can be stored in the automatic
driver's seat positioner memory.Follow these
procedures to use the memory system.
1. A/T models:
Set the automatic transmission selector
lever to the P (Park) position.
M/T models:
Apply the parking brake securely when the
vehicle is stopped.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Adjust the driver's seat and steering column
to the desired positions by manually oper-
ating each adjusting switch. For additional
information, see ªSeatsº in the ª1. Seats,
restraints and supplemental air bag sys-
temsº section and ªSteering wheelº earlier
in this section.During this step, do not turn the ignition to
any positions other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,
push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-

After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2).
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be de-
leted.
Confirming memory storageITurn the ignition ON and push the SET
switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored the position, the indica-
tor light will stay on for approximately 5
