Thebutton will be on the INFINITI Intelli-
gent Key if the vehicle has remote engine start.
This feature allows the engine to start from out-
side the vehicle.
The following features may be affected when the
remote start feature is used:
● Vehicles with an automatic climate control
system will default to either a heating or
cooling mode depending on the outside
temperature.
● Vehicles without automatic climate control
will default to the last used heating or cool-
ing mode. Laws in some local communities may restrict the
use of remote starters. For example, some laws
require a person using remote start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for any
requirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of the
Remote Engine Start feature. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Conditions the remote start will
not work” in this section.
Other conditions can affect the performance of
the Intelligent Key transmitter. For additional in-
formation, refer to “INFINITI Intelligent Key Sys-

control system may come on.
● The engine will continue to run for 10 min-
utes. Repeat the steps to extend the time for
an additional 10 minutes. For additional in-

WARNING
●Always be sure the liftgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.

could allow dangerous exhaust gases
to be drawn into the vehicle. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Exhaust
gas (carbon monoxide)” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
● To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance
of others or pets unattended in your
vehicle. Additionally, the temperature
inside a closed vehicle on a warm day
can quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
● Always be sure that hands and feet are
clear of the door frame to avoid injury
while closing the liftgate.

tivate switches or controls or make the
vehicle move. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents.
NOTE:
To open, close or reverse the power liftgate,
the shift lever must be in P (Park) . Also, the
power liftgate will not operate if battery
voltage is low.
