2010 INFINITI G37 Owners Manual

1. To begin, push and hold the 2 outer
HomeLink  buttons (to clear the memory)
until the indicator light
 A
blinks (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
2. Position the end of the hand-held trans-
mitter 1-3 inches away from the
HomeLink  surface. 3. Using both hands, simultaneously push
and hold both the HomeLink  button you
want to program and the hand-held trans-
mitter button.
DO NOT release the buttons until step 4
has been completed.
4. Hold down both buttons until the indicator
light on HomeLink  flashes, changing from
a “slow blink” to a “rapid blink”. This
could take up to 90 seconds. When the
indicator light blinks rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapidly flashing light
indicates successful programming. To ac-
tivate the garage door or other pro-
grammed device, push and hold the pro-
grammed HomeLink  button - releasing
when the device begins to activate. 5. If the indicator light on 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 HomeLink  , completing the pro-
gramming may require a ladder and an-
other person for convenience.
6. Push and release the program button
located on the garage door opener’s mo-
tor to activate the “training mode”. This
button is usually located near the an-
tenna 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 pushed 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. For convenience, use the help of a
second person to assist when performing
this step.SIC3612 SIC3613

7. Quickly (within 30 seconds of pushing
and releasing the garage door opener
training button) and firmly push and re-
lease the HomeLink  button you’ve just
programmed. Push and release the
HomeLink  button up to three times to
complete the training.
8. Your HomeLink  button should now be
programmed. To program the remaining
HomeLink  buttons for additional door or
gate openers, follow steps 2 through 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 diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink  buttons,
please refer to the HomeLink  web site 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 transmit-
ter to HomeLink  , continue to push and hold
the HomeLink  button (note steps 2 through 4
under “Programming HomeLink  ”) while you push and re-push (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every 2 seconds until the indicator
light flashes rapidly (indicating successful pro-
gramming).
NOTE:
If programming a garage door opener, etc., it is
advised to unplug the device during the “cy-
cling” process to prevent possible damage to
the garage door opener components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK 
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER HomeLink  Universal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the
garage door, etc. To operate, simply push the
appropriate programmed HomeLink  Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-DIAGNOSIS If 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. ● push and hold both the HomeLink  and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
● position the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 in
(50 to 127 mm) away from the HomeLink 
surface. Hold the transmitter in that position
for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink  is 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 INFINITI Consumer Af-
fairs Department. The phone numbers are lo-
cated in the Foreword of this Owner’s Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION Individual buttons cannot be cleared, however
to clear all programming, push and hold the two
outside buttons and release when the indicator
light begins to flash (in approximately 20 sec-
onds).

REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HOMELINK  BUTTONTo reprogram a HomeLink  Universal Trans-
ceiver button, complete the following.
1. Push and hold the desired HomeLink 
button. Do not release the button until
step 4 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash
slowly (after 20 seconds), position the
hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 in (50 to 127
mm) away from the HomeLink  surface.
3. Push and hold the hand-held transmitter
button.
4. The HomeLink  indicator light will flash,
first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light begins to flash rapidly,
release both buttons.
The HomeLink  Universal Transceiver button
has now been reprogrammed. The new device
can be activated by pushing the HomeLink 
button that was just programmed. This proce-
dure will not affect any other programmed
HomeLink  buttons. IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN If your vehicle is stolen, you should change the
codes of any non-rolling code device that has
been programmed into HomeLink  . Consult the
Owner’s Manual of each device or call the
manufacturer or retailer of those devices for
additional information.
When your vehicle is recovered, you will need to
reprogram the HomeLink  Universal Transceiver
with your new transmitter information.

A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), not in the vehicle. If
you lose your keys, see an INFINITI retailer for
duplicates by using the key number. INFINITI
does not record any key numbers so it is very
important to keep track of your key number
plate.
A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be
duplicated by an INFINITI retailer.
1. Intelligent Keys (2 sets)
2. Mechanical keys (inside the Keys) (2 sets)
3. Key number plate (1 set)
INTELLIGENT KEY Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelli-
gent Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s
Intelligent Key system components and INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System components. As
many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered
and used with one vehicle. The new keys must
be registered by an INFINITI retailer prior to use
with the Intelligent Key system and INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System of your vehicle.
Since the registration process requires erasing
all memory in the Intelligent Key components when registering new keys, be sure to take all
Intelligent Keys that you have to the INFINITI
retailer.
It is possible that the Intelligent Key functions
become canceled. Contact an INFINITI retailer.
CAUTION● Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you
when driving. The Intelligent Key is a preci-
sion device with a built-in transmitter. To
avoid damaging it, please note the
following.
– The Intelligent Key is water resistant;
however, wetting may damage the Intelli-
gent Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet,
immediately wipe until it is completely
dry.
– Do not bend, drop or strike it against an-
other object.
– Do not place the Intelligent Key for an
extended period in a place where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).
– Do not change or modify the Intelligent
Key.
– Do not use a magnet key holder. SPA2222

– Do not place the Intelligent Key near an
electric appliance such as a television set
or personal computer.
– Do not allow the Intelligent Key to come
into contact with water or salt water, and
do not wash it in a washing machine. This
could affect the system function.
● If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, INFINITI
recommends erasing the ID code of that In-
telligent Key. This will prevent the Intelli-
gent Key from unauthorized use to unlock
the vehicle. For information regarding the
erasing procedure, please contact an
INFINITI retailer.
Mechanical key To remove the mechanical key, release the lock
knob at the back of the Intelligent Key.
To install the mechanical key, firmly insert it
into the Intelligent Key until the lock knob
returns to the lock position.
Use the mechanical key to lock or unlock the
doors, glove box and trunk pass-through lid, if
they are equipped with a key cylinder.
See “DOORS” later in this section and “TRUNK
LID” later in this section, “STORAGE” in the “2.
Instruments and controls” section and “SEATS”
in the “1. Safety — Seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system” section. CAUTIONAlways carry the mechanical key installed in
the key.
VALET HAND-OFF When you have to leave a key with a valet, give
them the Intelligent Key itself and keep the
mechanical key with you to protect your belong-
ings.
To prevent the glove box and the trunk from
being opened during valet hand-off, follow the
procedures below.
1. Push the trunk release power cancel
switch to the CANCEL side.
2. Remove the mechanical key from the In-
telligent Key.
3. Lock the glove box and the trunk pass-
through (for Sedan) with the mechanical
key.
4. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet,
keeping the mechanical key in your
pocket or bag for insertion into the Intel-
ligent Key when you retrieve your vehicle. SPA2033

See “TRUNK LID” later in this section, “STOR-
AGE” in the “2. Instruments and controls” sec-
tion and “SEATS” in the “1. Safety — Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion. WARNING● Always have the doors locked while driving.
Along with the use of seat belts, this pro-
vides greater safety in the event of an acci-
dent by helping to prevent persons from be-
ing thrown from the vehicle. This also helps
keep children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help keep
out intruders.
● Before opening any door, always look for and
avoid oncoming traffic.
● Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY The power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously using the
mechanical key.
● Turning the driver’s door key cylinder to the
front of the vehicle
 1
will lock all doors.
● Turning the driver’s door key cylinder once
to the rear of the vehicle
 2
will unlock the
driver’s door. After returning the key to the
neutral position
 3
, turning it to the rear
again within 60 seconds will unlock all
doors. SPA2527

OPENING AND CLOSING WINDOWS
WITH THE MECHANICAL KEY The driver’s door key operation also allows you
to open and close the window that is equipped
with the automatic open/close function. (See
“POWER WINDOWS” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section).
To open the window, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the rear of the vehicle for longer than
1 second . The door is unlocked and the window
keeps opening while turning the key.
This function can also be performed by pushing
and holding the door UNLOCK button of the
Intelligent Key. (See “REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM” later in this section.)
To close the window, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the front of the vehicle for longer
than 1 second . The door is locked and the
window keeps closing while turning the key. LOCKING WITH INSIDE LOCK KNOB To lock the door individually, move the inside
lock knob to the lock position
 1
then close the
door.
To unlock, move the inside lock knob to the
unlock position
 2
.
When locking the door without an Intelligent
Key, be sure not to leave the Intelligent Key
inside the vehicle. LOCKING WITH POWER DOOR LOCK
SWITCH Operating the power door lock switch will lock
or unlock all the doors. The switches are lo-
cated on the driver’s and front passenger’s door
armrests.
To lock the doors, push the power door lock
switch to the lock position
