the desired HomeLink
®button while you
press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-
held transmitter every two seconds until
the frequency signal has been learned. The
HomeLink
®indicator light will flash slowly
and then rapidly after several seconds
upon successful programming. DO NOT

OPERATING THE HomeLink®UNI-
VERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink®Universal Transceiver, after
it is programmed, can be used to activate
the programmed device. To operate, simply
press and release the appropriate pro-
grammed HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver
button. The amber indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being trans- mitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter

PROGRAMMING TROUBLESHOOT-
ING
If the HomeLink®does not quickly learn
the hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter bat-
teries with new batteries.
. position the hand-held transmitter with
its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink
®surface.
. press and hold both the HomeLink®
and hand-held transmitter buttons
without interruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1 - 3
in (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLink
®surface. Hold the transmit-
ter in that position for up to 15
seconds. If HomeLink
®is not pro-
grammed within that time, try holding
the transmitter in another position -
keeping the indicator light in view at all
times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink
®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink®web site
at: www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED IN-
FORMATION
The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from both buttons.

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally 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. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.

INFINITI Performance Line model
The INFINITI Performance Line model has
unique exhaust pipes. These parts are
close to the ground and may be damaged
if they contact objects such as parking
blocks, etc.
CAUTION

Cancel or activate seat synchroni-
zation function
For Automatic Transmission models:
The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
For Manual Transmission models:
The parking brake must be applied with
the ignition switch in the ACC position.
The seat synchronization function can be
activated or canceled by pushing and
holding the SET switch for more than 10
seconds while the ignition switch is in the
ACC position.
The indicator lights on the memory
switches (1 and 2) will blink once when
the function is canceled, and the indicator
lights will blink twice when the function is
activated. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to
a stored memory position. Keep the SET
switch pushed for more than 10 seconds to
turn on or off the seat synchronization
function.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored
in the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the mem-
ory system.
1.Automatic transmission models:
Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
Manual transmission models:
Apply the parking brake.
2. Raise the seatback.
3. Push the ignition switch to the ON position.
4. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering col- umn and outside mirrors to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats”(P.1-2) and “Tilt/
telescopic steering” (P.3-23) and“Out-
side mirrors” (P.3-26).
5. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1
or 2) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed
memory switch will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.

memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.
Linking Intelligent Key to a stored
memory position
The Intelligent Key can be linked to a
stored memory position with the following
procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory
position.
2. While the indicator light for the memory switch being set is illuminated for 5
seconds, push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. If the indicator light
blinks, the Intelligent Key is linked to
that memory setting.
Push the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion, and then push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. The driver’s seat, steering
wheel and outside mirrors will move to the
memorized position.
