3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments
A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet) , not in the vehicle. If
you lose your keys, it is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for duplicates by using the key
number. NISSAN does not record any key
numbers so it is very important to keep track of
your key number plate.
A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, it can be duplicated
without knowing the key number.

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYS-
TEM KEY (if so equipped)
Your vehicle can only be driven with the master
keys, which are registered to the NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System components. As
many as 4 master keys can be registered and
used with one vehicle. The new keys must be
registered by a NISSAN dealer prior to use with
the master of your vehicle. Since the registration
process requires erasing all memory in the
master components when registering new keys,
be sure to take all master keys that you have to
the NISSAN dealer.
CAUTION
Do not allow the NISSAN Vehicle Im-
mobilizer System key, which contains
an electrical transponder, to come into

INTELLIGENT KEY (if so equipped)
Your vehicle can only be driven with the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to your
vehicle’s Intelligent Key system components and
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System compo-
nents. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. The new
keys must be registered by a NISSAN dealer
prior to use with the Intelligent Key system and

erasing all memory in the Intelligent Key compo-
nents when registering new keys, be sure to take
all Intelligent Keys that you have to the NISSAN
dealer.

with you when driving. The Intelli-
gent Key is a precision device with a

the Intelligent Key gets wet,
immediately wipe until it is com-
pletely dry.

Mechanical key
To remove the mechanical key, release the lock
knob at the back of the Intelligent Key.
To install the mechanical key, firmly insert it into
the Intelligent Key until the lock knob returns to
the lock position.
Use the mechanical key to lock or unlock the
doors. (See “Doors” (P.3-5) .)

CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key in-
stalled in the Intelligent Key.
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.
.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 children, 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.
