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.

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.
CAUTION
c
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 140ÉF (60ÉC).
± Do not change or modify the Intelligent Key.

WARNING
cAlways 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.
c Before opening any door, always look for and
avoid oncoming traffic.
