The light illuminates when the trunk lid is
opened. When the trunk lid is closed, the light
will turn off.
The light will turn off after 30 minutes when the
light remains illuminated to prevent the battery
from becoming discharged.HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters
into one built-in device.
HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver:
c Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) de-
vices such as garage doors, gates, home and
office lighting, entry door locks and security
systems.
c 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 Twill retain all program-
ming.
Once HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver is pro-
grammed, retain the original transmitter for fu-
ture programming procedures (Example: new ve-
hicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver
buttons should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, see ªPROGRAMMING
HomeLinkTº later in this section.WARNING
c Do not use HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver
with any garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features as required
by federal 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
automatically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety standards. Using
a garage door opener without these features
increases the risk of serious injury or death.
c 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.
c Your vehicle's engine should be turned off
while programming HomeLinkT Universal
Transceiver.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINKT
To program your HomeLink TTransceiver to op-
erate 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 ªrolling

engine compartment, to avoid injury do not
open the hood.
WARNING
cDo not drive with the trunk lid open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be
drawn into the vehicle. See ªEXHAUST GAS
(carbon monoxide)º in the ª5. Starting and
drivingº section of this manual.
c Closely supervise children when they are
around cars to prevent them from playing
and becoming locked in the trunk where they
could be seriously injured. Keep the car

FUEL-FILLER CAP
The fuel-filler cap is a ratcheting type. Turn the
cap counterclockwise to remove. To tighten,
turn the cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks
are heard.
WARNING
cGasoline is extremely flammable and highly
explosive under certain conditions. You
could be burned or seriously injured if it is
misused or mishandled. Always stop engine
and do not smoke or allow open flames or
sparks near the vehicle when refueling. c
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after
the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automati-
cally. Continued refueling may cause fuel
overflow, resulting in fuel spray and possi-
bly a fire.
c Use only an original equipment type fuel-
filler cap as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper operation of
the fuel system and emission control sys-
tem. An incorrect cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It could
also cause the malfunction indicator light to
come on.
c Never pour fuel into the throttle body to at-
tempt to start your vehicle.
c Do not fill a portable fuel container in the
vehicle or trailer. Static electricity can cause
an explosion of flammable liquid, vapor or
gas in any vehicle or trailer. To reduce the
risk of serious injury or death when filling
portable fuel containers:
± Always place the container on the ground when filling.
± Do not use electronic devices when filling.
± Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are filling it. ± Use only approved portable fuel contain-
ers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
cIf fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it
away with water to avoid paint damage.
c Insert the cap straight into the fuel-filler
tube, then tighten until the fuel-filler cap
clicks. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly may cause the
malfunction
indicator light (MIL) to illuminate. If the
light illuminates because the fuel-
filler cap is loose or missing, tighten or in-
stall the cap and continue to drive the ve-
hicle. The
light should turn off after a
few driving trips. If the
light does not
turn off after a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected by an INFINITI retailer.
For additional information, see ªMalfunction
Indicator Light (MIL)º in the ª2. Instruments
and controlsº section.
Put the fuel-filler cap on the cap holder
