An optional ventilated net seat has this built-in
heater only in the seat cushion part, not in the
seatback.
CAUTION
The battery could be discharged if
the seat heater is operated while the
engine is not running.
Do not use the seat heater for ex-
tended periods or when no one is
using the seat.
Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates heat, such as a blan-
ket, cushion, seat cover, etc. Other-
wise, the seat may become over-
heated.
Do not place anything hard or heavyon the seat or pierce it with a pin or
similar object. This may result in
damage to the heater.
Any liquid spilled on the heated seat
should be removed immediately with
a dry cloth.
When cleaning the seat, never use
gasoline, benzine, thinner, or any
similar materials.
If any abnormalities are found or the
heated seat does not operate, turn
the switch off and have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most
driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor.
If maximum engine power is needed to free a
stuck vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
system, push the VDC OFF switch (located on
the lower side of the instrument panel). The
indicator light will come on.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the

The light illuminates when the trunk lid is
opened. When the trunk lid is closed, the light
will go off.The HomeLink
Universal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver:
Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and se-
curity systems.
Is 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
(for example, new vehicle purchases).
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, refer to “Pro-
gramming HomeLink
” later in this sec-
tion.
WARNING
Do 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.
During the programming procedure,
your garage door or security gate will
open or close (if the transmitter is
within range). Make sure that people
and objects are clear of the garage
door, gate, etc. that you are
programming.

when the device begins to activate.
5. If the indicator light on the HomeLink
blinks
rapidly for two seconds and then turns solid,
HomeLink
has picked up a “rolling code”
garage door opener signal. You will need to
proceed with the next steps to train the
HomeLinkto complete the programming
which may require a ladder and another
person for convenience.
6. Press and release the training button located
on the garage door opener’s motor to acti-
vate the “training mode”. This button is usu-
ally located near the antenna wire that hangs
down from the motor. If the wire originates
from under a light lens, you will need to
remove the lens to access the training button.
NOTE:
Once you have pressed and released the
training button on the garage door open-
er’s motor and the “training light” is lit, you
have 30 seconds in which to perform step
7. Use the help of a second person for
convenience to assist when performing
this step.
7. Quickly within 30 seconds of pressing and
releasing the garage door opener program
button, firmly press and release the
HomeLinkbutton you’ve just programmed.Press and release the HomeLink
button up
to three times to complete the training.
8. Your HomeLink
button should now be pro-
grammed.
To program the remaining HomeLink
buttons
for additional door or gate openers, follow steps
2-8 only.
NOTE:
Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to
“clear” all previously programmed
HomeLink
buttons.
If you have any questions or are having difficulty
programming your HomeLink
buttons, refer to
the HomeLink
website at: www.homelink.com
or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink
FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand-
held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2
seconds. To program your hand-held transmitter
to HomeLink
, continue to press and hold the
HomeLinkbutton (note steps 2 through 4
under “Programming HomeLink
”) while you
press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every 2 seconds until the indicator
light flashes rapidly (indicating successful pro-
gramming).NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., it is advised to unplug the device
during the “cycling” process to prevent
possible damage to the garage door
opener components.
OPERATING THE HomeLinkUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVERThe HomeLink
Universal Transceiver (once
programmed) may now be used to activate the
garage door, etc. To operate, simply press the
appropriate programmed HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE
DIAGNOSISIf the HomeLink
does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
position the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the HomeLink
surface.
press and hold both the HomeLink
and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.

It is possible to lock/unlock all doors (including
the rear hatch/trunk lid), release the rear
hatch/trunk lid and activate the panic alarm by
using the keyfobfrom outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfobcan operate at a distance of approxi-
mately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the purchase
and use of additional keyfobs, contact a NISSAN
dealer.
The keyfobwill not function when:
the battery is discharged,
the distance between the vehicle and the
keyfobis over 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm and the rear hatch/trunk
lid release will not activate when the key is
in the ignition switch.
CAUTION
The following conditions or occurrences
will damage the keyfob.Do not allow the keyfob to become
wet.
Do not drop the keyfob.
Do not strike the keyfob sharply
against another object.
Do not place the keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of that
keyfob. This will prevent the keyfob
from unauthorized use to unlock the
vehicle. For information regarding the
erasing procedure, please contact a
NISSAN dealer.
For information regarding the replacement of a
battery, see “Keyfob battery replacement” in the
“8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
