When the switch is in the O (DOOR) position2,
the interior lights will stay on for a period of time
when:
● The doors are unlocked by the key fob, a key
or the power door lock switch while all doors
are closed and the ignition switch is in the
OFF position.
● The driver’s door is opened and then closed
while the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
● The key is removed from the ignition switch
while all doors are closed. The lights will turn off while the timer is activated
when:
● The driver’s door is locked by the key fob, a
key, or the power door lock switch.
● The ignition switch is turned ON.
The lights will turn off automatically after a period
of time while doors are open to prevent the bat-
tery from becoming discharged.
When the switch is in the OFF position
3, the
interior lights do not illuminate, regardless of door
position.
CAUTION
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could result
in a discharged battery.

To turn the map lights on, press the lenses. To
turn them off, press the lenses of the lights again.
CAUTION
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could result
in a discharged battery.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 devices
such as garage doors, gates, home and of-
fice lighting, entry door locks and security
systems.
● 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® will retain all program-
ming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver 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 “Program-
ming HomeLink®” 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 ga-
rage 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 in-
creases 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 engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver.

1. Two master keys (black) with transponderchip and chrome NISSAN brand symbol on
one side
2. Transponder chip
3. Key number plate
A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep the plate in a
safe place (such as your wallet) , not in the ve-
hicle. If you lose your keys, see a NISSAN dealer
for duplicates by using the key number. NISSAN
does not record key numbers so it is very impor-
tant to keep track of your key number plate. A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all your keys. If you still have a key, a NISSAN
dealer can duplicate it.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS (if so equipped)
You can only drive your vehicle using the master
key which is registered to the NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System components in your vehicle.
This key has a transponder chip in the key head.
The master key can be used for all the locks.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys. A NISSAN dealer can
duplicate your existing key. As many as five
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System keys can be
used with one vehicle. You should bring all
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System keys that
you have to the NISSAN dealer for registration.
This is because the registration process will
erase the memory of all key codes previously
registered into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer
System. After the registration process, these
components will only recognize keys coded into
the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System duringregistration. Any key that is not given to the dealer
at the time of registration will no longer be able to
start your vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect system function.
