CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
Child safety locks help prevent the rear doors
from being opened accidentally, especially when
small children are in the vehicle.
The child safety lock levers are located on the
edge of the rear doors.
When the lever is in the lock position, the
door can be opened only from the outside.It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, turn on the
interior lights and puddle lamps (if so equipped) ,
and activate the panic alarm by using the keyfob
from outside the vehicle.
Some settings for the keyfob, such as horn beep,
can be adjusted. For vehicles without navigation
system, refer to “Silencing the horn beep feature”
later in this section. For vehicles with navigation
system, refer to “Vehicle electronic systems” in
the “Display screen, heater, air conditioner and
audio systems” section later in this manual.
Be sure to remove the key from the vehicle
before locking the doors.
The keyfob can operate at a maximum distance of
approximately 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 keyfob will not function when:
cthe battery is discharged.
cthe 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
Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the keyfob:
cDo not allow the keyfob to become wet.
cDo not drop the keyfob.
cDo not strike the keyfob sharply against
another object.
cDo not place the keyfob for an extended
period in an area where temperatures
exceed 140°F (60°C) .
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN rec-
ommends erasing the ID code of that key-
fob. This will prevent the keyfob from un-
authorized use to unlock the vehicle. For
information regarding the erasing proce-
dure, please contact a NISSAN dealer.
