luggage rack. Do not load more than 100
pounds (45 kg). Be careful that your vehicle
does not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight

pliance Certification Label (located on the
driver's door pillar). For more information
regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer to
``Technical and Consumer Information''.
The front and rear cross-bars can be adjusted
forward and backward. Place your luggagebetween the bars, adjust the bars, and secure
the luggage with rope to the bars. Always
check the tightness of the adjusting knobs.
There are also adjustable loops on the side
bars for the rope attachment.
CAUTION
Use care when placing or removing
items from the luggage rack. If you
cannot comfortably lift the items onto
the luggage rack from the ground, use
a ladder or stool.

To turn on the map lights, press the
switches. To turn them off, press the
switches again.
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could
result in a discharged battery.The interior lights, the cargo light, the glove
box light, the stepwell lights near the sliding
doors and on the front doors, and the foot-
well lights near the driver's and front pas-
senger's feet illuminate when the front or
sliding doors are opened. Once the doors
are closed, these lights gradually dim to off
within 30 seconds or turn off immediately
when the key is turned to the ON position.
Battery saver
If the vehicle doors are not fully closed and
the interior lights remain illuminated, they
eventually turn off automatically to prevent
the battery from becoming discharged. If the
interior lights are left in the ON position, with
all doors closed, they will automatically turn
off after approximately 30 minutes. Lights
that illuminate when the front or sliding
doors are opened turn off after approxi-
mately 30 minutes. Lights that illuminate
when the back door is opened turn off after
approximately 60 minutes. Vanity mirror
lights are not part of the battery saver
system.
If the personal reading lights are left on after
the key is removed from the ignition, they
will automatically turn off after approxi-
mately 30 minutes.The HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
cThe HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
will operate garage doors, gates, home/
office lighting systems and security sys-
tems by storing and transmitting the pro-
gramming information of your current
hand-held transmitters.
cThe HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver is
built-in and powered by your vehicle's
battery and charging system. No separate
batteries are necessary.
WARNING
Do not use this HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards (these standards be-
came effective for models manufac-
tured 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 the

door, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.
PROGRAMMING HomeLinkT
WARNING
During the programming procedure
your garage door or security gate will
open and close (if the transmitter is
within range). Make sure that people or
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.Your vehicle's engine should be turned
off while programming your transmit-
ter. The HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver may not work with older garage
door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards.
1. Test the HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver by pressing any button. The red
indicator light should come on. If you
have previously programmed a button
proceed to step 3.
2. Clear all channels on the HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver by holding down
both outside buttons (#1 & #3) until the
red light begins to flash rapidly (approxi-
mately 20 seconds). Then release both
buttons.
3. Select which of the three HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver buttons you want
to program.
4. Hold your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver so that you can
still see the red indicator light.

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.
