approximately 3 seconds. If, during this
30-second pre-arm time period, the
door is unlocked, or the ignition switch

with all doors, hood, and trunk lid locked
with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. When pushing the ignition switch
to the ACC or ON position, the system will
be released.

The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
. The headlights blink and the horn
sounds intermittently.

approximately 1 minute. However, the
alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with again.
The alarm is activated by:
. Unlocking the door or opening the trunk
lid without using the button on the
Intelligent Key, the door handle request
switch, one touch unlock sensor or the
mechanical key. (Even if the door is
opened by releasing the door inside
lock knob, the alarm will activate.)
. Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the UNLOCK button on the Intelli-
gent Key, pushing the door handle request

Infiniti InTouch Owner’s Manual. The HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver pro-
vides 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 12-volt
battery. No separate batteries are
required. If the vehicle’s 12-volt battery
is discharged or is disconnected,
HomeLink
®will retain all programming.
When the HomeLink®Universal Transcei-
ver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (Example: new vehicle purchases).
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, refer to “Pro-
gramming HomeLink
®” (P.2-62).
WARNING
. Do not use the 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 manufac-
tured 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.
. During the programming procedure your
garage door or security gate will open
and close (if the transmitter is within
range). Make sure that people or objects
are clear of the garage door, gate, etc.
that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
®System should be turned off
while programming the HomeLink®Uni-
versal Transceiver. Do not breathe ex-
haust gases; they contain colorless and
odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon mon-
oxide is dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.
