mately 50 seconds. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with again.
The alarm is activated by:
• Unlocking the door without using the Intelligent

door is opened by releasing the door inside lock
knob, the alarm will activate.)
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm will stop when a door is unlocked by
pushing the UNLOCK
button on the Intel-
ligent Key, door handle request switch or using
the mechanical key, or when the power switch is

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the power switch to be placed in the
READY to drive position without the use of the
registered key.
If the power switch fails to place the vehicle into
the READY to drive position using the registered
key, it may be due to interference caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automated payment device on the key
ring. Restart the EV system using the following
procedure:
1. Leave the power switch in the ON position for
approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the power switch in the OFF position
and wait approximately 10 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Place the power switch in the READY to drive
position while holding the device (which may
have caused the interference) separate from
the registered key.
If this procedure allows power switch in the
READY to drive mode, NISSAN recommends
placing the registered key on a separate key
ring to avoid interference from other devices.FCC Notice:
For USA:
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) This device may

DOOR position
When the switch is in the DOOR position2, the
ceiling light will illuminate under the following
conditions:
• the power switch is placed in the LOCK posi-
tion.
– remains on for about 15 seconds.
• doors are unlocked by pushing the UNLOCK
button or the request switch, with the
power switch in the LOCK position
– remains on for about 15 seconds.
• any door is opened and then closed with the
power switch in the LOCK position
– remains on for about 15 seconds.
• any door is opened with the power switch in the
ACC or ON position
– remains on while the door is opened. When
the door is closed, the light turns off.
The light will automatically turn off after 10
minutes when the light remains illuminated
to prevent the battery from becoming dis-
charged.
OFF position
When the switch is in the OFF position3, the
ceiling light will not illuminate, regardless of the
condition.The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver provides
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) de-
vices such as garage doors, gates, home and
office lighting, entry door locks and security
systems.
• Is powered by the vehicle’s 12-volt battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehicle’s
12-volt battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all programming.
Once the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (for example, new vehicle pur-
chases) . Upon sale of the vehicle, the pro-
grammed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased for
security purposes. For additional informa-
tion, see “Programming HomeLink®” later
in this section.
WARNING
• Do not use the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came effective for opener models
manufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener that cannot detect
an object in the path of a closing ga-
rage door and then automatically stop
and reverse, does not meet current
federal safety standards. Using a ga-
rage door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious in-
jury or death.
• During the programming procedure,
your garage door or security gate will
open or 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.
• Place the power switch in the ACC or
ON position while programming the
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If HomeLink® does not quickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information, perform the follow-
ing steps.
• Replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
• Position the hand-held transmitter with its bat-
tery area facing away from the HomeLink® sur-
face.
• Push and hold both the HomeLink® and hand-
held transmitter buttons without interruption.
• Position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches
(2 to 8 cm) 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 while keeping the indicator
light in view at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties,
please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs
Department. The phone numbers are located in
the Foreword of this Owner’s Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the programmed
information from both buttons. Individual buttons
cannot be cleared. However, individual buttons
can be reprogrammed, see “Reprogramming a
single HomeLink® button” in this section.
To clear all programming:
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink®
buttons until the indicator light begins to flash
in approximately 10 seconds. Do not hold for
longer than 20 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.
HomeLink® is now in the programming mode
and can be programmed at any time beginning
with “Programming HomeLink®” - Step 1.
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HOMELINK® BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver button, complete the following:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® but-
ton.DO NOTrelease the button.2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20
seconds. Without releasing the HomeLink®
button, proceed with “Programming
HomeLink®” - Step 1.
For questions or comments, contact HomeLink®
at: www.homelink.com or 1–800–355–3515.
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 procedure
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 manu-
facturer or dealer of those devices for additional
information.
When your vehicle is recovered, you will
need to reprogram the HomeLink® Univer-
sal Transceiver with your new transmitter
information.
