52–8 inches (5–20 cm) away from the
HomeLink® surface, keeping the
HomeLink® indicator light
1in view.
5. Press and hold button
6on the hand held
transmitter until indicator lamp
1lights up
green. When indicator lamp
1: lights up
green: programing is finished.
When indicator lamp
1flashes green: pro-
graming was successful. The next step is to
synchronize the rolling code.
6. Release button
6on the hand held trans-
mitter
5for the garage door drive system.
If indicator lamp
1lights up red: repeat the
programing procedure for the corresponding
button on the rear-view mirror. When doing
so, vary the distance between the hand held
transmitter
5and the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between the hand
held transmitter
5and the integrated ga-
rage door opener depends on the garage
door drive system. Several attempts might
be necessary. You should test every position
for at least 25 seconds before trying another
position.
Synchronizing the rolling code
If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronize the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programing button on the
door drive control panel. The programing button
may be positioned at different locations de-
pending on the manufacturer. It is usually lo-
cated on the door drive unit on the garage
ceiling.
Familiarize yourself with the garage door drive
operating instructions before carrying out the
following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach of the garage
door or gate opener drive. Make sure that
neither your vehicle nor any persons/ objects
are present within the sweep of the door or
gate.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
2. Get out of the vehicle.
3. Press the programing button on the door drive unit.
Usually, you now have 30 seconds to initiate
the next step.
4. Get into the vehicle. 5. Press previously programed button
2,3or4on the HomeLink® until the door
closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then com-
plete.
If you live in Canada
Canadian radio frequency laws require a break
(or interruption) of the transmission signals
after broadcasting for a few seconds. Therefore,
these signals may not last long enough for the
integrated garage door opener. The signal is not
recognized during programing. Comparable
with Canadian law, some U.S. garage door
openers also feature a break.
Proceed as follows:
•If you live in Canada
•If you have difficulties programing the ga-
rage door opener (regardless of where you
live) when using the programing steps.
1. Press and hold one of buttons
2to4on
the HomeLink®. After a short time, indicator

mitter
5for the garage door drive.
If indicator lamp
1lights up red: repeat the
programing process for the corresponding
button on the rear-view mirror. When doing
so, vary the distance between the hand held
transmitter
5and the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between the hand
held transmitter
5and the HomeLink®
depends on the garage door drive system.
Several attempts might be necessary. You
should test every position for at least 25
seconds before trying another position.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
•Check the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive hand-held transmitter
5and whether it is supported. The transmitter
frequency can usually be found on the back
of the garage door drive hand-held transmit-
ter. HomeLink® is compatible with devices
that have units which operate in the fre-
quency range of 280 to 433 MHz.
•Replace the hand-held transmitter5batter-
ies with new batteries.
This increases the likelihood that the hand-
held transmitter
5will transmit a strong
and precise signal to the HomeLink®.
•When programing, hold the hand-held trans-
mitter
5at varying distances and angles
from the button which you are programing.
Try various angles at a distance between 2
and 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) or at the same
angle but at varying distances.
•If another hand-held transmitter is available
for the same garage door drive, repeat the
same programing steps with this hand-held
transmitter
5. Before performing these
steps, make sure that new batteries have been installed in the hand-held transmitter
5.
•Note that some hand-held transmitters only
transmit for a limited amount of time (the
indicator lamp on the hand-held transmitter
goes out). Press button
6on remote hand-
held transmitter
5again before transmis-
sion ends.
•Align the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal
reception/ transmission.
If you have any questions or are having diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink® buttons,
refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.

Always back straight down in R (Reverse)
gear and apply brakes to control your
speed.
•Heavy braking going down a hill could cause
your brakes to overheat and fade, resulting
in loss of control and an accident. Apply
brakes lightly and use a low gear to control
your speed.
•Unsecured cargo can be thrown around
when driving over rough terrain. Properly
secure all cargo so it will not be thrown
forward and cause injury to you or your pas-
sengers.
•Secure heavy loads in the cargo area as far
forward and as low as possible. Do not
equip the vehicle with tires larger than
specified in this manual. This could cause
your vehicle to roll over.
•Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steer-
ing wheel when driving off-road. The steer-
ing wheel could move suddenly and injure
your hands. Instead drive with your fingers
and thumbs on the outside of the rim.
•Before operating the vehicle, ensure that
the driver and all passengers have their seat
belts fastened.
•Always drive with the floor mats in place as
the floor may become hot.
•Lower your speed when encountering
strong crosswinds. With a higher center of
gravity, your INFINITI is more affected by
strong side winds. Slower speeds ensure
better vehicle control.
•Do not drive beyond the performance capa-
bility of the tires, even with AWD engaged.
•For AWD equipped vehicles, do not attempt
to raise two wheels off the ground and shift
the transmission to any drive or reverse po-
sition with the engine running. Doing so
may result in drivetrain damage or unex-
pected vehicle movement which could re-
sult in serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.
•Do not attempt to test an AWD equipped
vehicle on a 2-wheel dynamometer (such as
the dynamometers used by some states for
emissions testing), or similar equipment
even if the other two wheels are raised off
the ground. Make sure you inform test facil-
ity personnel that your vehicle is equipped
with AWD before it is placed on a dynamom-
eter. Using the wrong test equipment may
result in drivetrain damage or unexpectedvehicle movement which could result in se-
rious vehicle damage or personal injury.
•When a wheel is off the ground due to an
unlevel surface, do not spin the wheel ex-
cessively.
•Accelerating quickly, sharp steering ma-
neuvers or sudden braking may cause loss
of control.
•If at all possible, avoid sharp turning ma-
neuvers, particularly at high speeds. Your
INFINITI vehicle has a higher center of grav-
ity than a passenger car. The vehicle is not
designed for cornering at the same speeds
as passenger cars. Failure to operate this
vehicle correctly could result in loss of con-
trol and/or a rollover accident.
•Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction (bias, bias-belted, or
radial), and tread pattern on all four wheels.
Install tire chains on the front wheels when
driving on slippery roads and drive care-
fully.
•Be sure to check the brakes immediately
after driving in mud or water.
Starting and driving5-13

•Avoid parking your vehicle on steep hills. If
you get out of the vehicle and it rolls for-
ward, backward or sideways, you could be
injured.
•Whenever you drive off-road through sand,
mud or water as deep as the wheel hub,
more frequent maintenance may be re-
quired. For additional information, refer to
Maintenance schedulesin the
9. Maintenance and Schedules section.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) DRIVING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (IF SO
EQUIPPED)
WARNING
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
•Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or ra-
dial), and tread pattern on all four wheels.
Install tire chains on the front wheels when
driving on slippery roads and drive care-
fully.
•This vehicle is not designed for offroad
(rough road) use. Do not drive on sandy or
muddy roads that tires may get stuck in.
•For AWD equipped vehicles, do not attempt
to raise two wheels off the ground and shift
the transmission to any D (Drive) or R (Re-
verse) position with the engine running. Do-
ing so may result in drivetrain damage or
unexpected vehicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage or personal
injury
•Do not attempt to test an AWD equipped
vehicle on a 2-wheel dynamometer, (such
as the dynamometers used by some states
for emissions testing), or similar equipment
even if the other two wheels are raised off
the ground. Make sure you inform test facil-
ity personnel that your vehicle is equipped
with AWD before it is placed on a dynamom-
eter. Using the wrong test equipment may
result in drivetrain damage or unexpected
vehicle movement which could result in se-
rious vehicle damage or personal injury.
•When a wheel is off the ground due to an
unlevel surface, do not spin the wheel
excessively. The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered key.
If the engine fails to start 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 engine using the following
procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat Step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered key on a
separate key ring to avoid interference from
other devices.
