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
security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is dis-
connected, HomeLink
®will retain all pro-
gramming.
Once HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver is
programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures
(Example: new vehicle purchases) . Upon
sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.

WARNING
. Do not use HomeLink
®Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by federal safety standards. (These
standards 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 automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.
. During programming procedure,
your garage door or security gate
may open or close. Make sure that
people and objects are clear of the
garage door, gate, etc. that you are
programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be
turned off while programming
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink
®
To program your HomeLink
®Transceiver to
operate a garage door, gate, or entry door
opener, home or office lighting, you need to be
at the same location as the device. Note:
Garage door openers (manufactured after
1996) have “rolling code protection”. To pro-

— When the Intelligent Key is placed nearan electric appliance such as a personal
computer.
— When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter.
. Although the life of the battery varies
depending on the operating conditions, the
battery’s life is approximately 2 years. If the
battery is discharged, replace it with a new
one. (
“INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY
REPLACEMENT” page 8-23)
. Since the Intelligent Key is continuously
receiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and
personal computer, the battery life may
become shorter.
. Because the steering wheel is locked
electrically, unlocking the steering wheel
with the ignition switch in the LOCK position
is impossible when the vehicle battery is
completely discharged. Pay special atten-
tion that the vehicle battery is not completely
discharged.
. Do not push the door handle request switch
with the Intelligent Key held in your hand.
The close distance to the door handle will
cause the Intelligent Key system to have
difficulty recognizing that the Intelligent Key
is outside the vehicle. .
After locking the doors, check that the doors
are securely locked by testing them.
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from being left
inside the vehicle, make sure you carry the
key with you and then lock the doors.
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from being left
inside the trunk, make sure you carry the key
with you and then close the trunk.
. Do not pull the door handle before pushing
the door handle request switch. The door
will be unlocked but will not open. Release
the door handle once and pull it again to
open the door.
INTELLIGENT KEY FUNCTIONSIt is possible to lock/unlock all doors, fuel-filler
door and trunk lid by pushing the request switch
on the outside door handles and the trunk lid.
Intelligent Key operating rangeThe Intelligent Key functions can only be used
when the Intelligent Key is within the specified
operating range from the request switch. The
operating range is within 31.50 in (80 cm) from
each request switch.NOTE:.When the Intelligent Key battery is
discharged or strong radio waves are
present near the operating location,
the Intelligent Key system’s operating
range becomes narrower, and the In-
telligent Key may not function properly.
. If the Intelligent Key is too close to the
door glass, handle or rear bumper, the

5. Push the shift lever button and move theshift lever to the
&N
position while holding
down the shift lock.
Push the ignition switch to the ON position to
unlock the steering wheel. Now the vehicle may
be moved to the desired location.
If the battery is discharged completely, the
steering wheel cannot be unlocked. Do not
move the vehicle with the steering wheel locked.
NOTICE
If the shift lever cannot be moved out of
the
&P
position after performing the
shift lock release procedure, immedi-
ately have the vehicle inspected by a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
Adaptive shift controlThe adaptive shift control system automatically
operates when the transmission is in the
&A
position and selects an appropriate gear de-
pending on the road conditions such as uphill,
downhill or curving roads.Control on uphill and curving roads:A low gear is maintained that suits the degree of
the slope or curve to allow smooth driving with a
small number of shifts.
Control on downhill roads:The adaptive shift control system shifts to a low
gear that suits the degree of the slope, and uses
the engine brake to reduce the number of times
that the foot brake must be used.Control on winding roads:A low gear is maintained on continuous curves
that involve repeated acceleration and decelera-
tion, so that smooth acceleration is available
instantly when the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed.NOTE:Adaptive shift control may not operate
when the transmission oil temperature is
low immediately after the start of driving
or when it is very hot. If this occurs, switch
to the
&M
position and downshift if neces-
sary.
&M
position
Changing to the
&M
position:
To change to the
&M
position from the
&A
position, either move the shift lever to the
&M
side or operate the paddle shifter. The position
indicator indicates the gear position with the
indication of “M”.
If the paddle shifter is used, the first operation
changes from the
&Aposition to the
&Mposition,
and the second and later operations change the gears.
To return to the
&Aposition, move the shift lever
to the
&M
side again. The position indicator
indicates the gear position with the indication of
“A”.
