WARNING
To avoid personal injury, keep your hands,
fingers and head away from the sunshade
arm, the arm rail and sunshade inlet port.
NOTE
The following notes cover situations where
strong sun shining on the roof of the vehicle
causes the area around the sunshade motor
to reach high temperatures:
•If the temperature of the sunshade motor
reaches a value between 185 °F (85 °C)
and 212 °F (100 °C), “restricted mode” is
enabled, and the sunshade will only be
allowed to CLOSE.
•If the temperature of the sunshade motor
exceeds 212 °F (100 °C), the sunshade will
not operate.

“OPEN” side of the switch
2To stop the
sunshade from opening fully, release the
switch.
Automatic operation:
To fully open or close the sunshade auto-
matically, press briefly on the open or close
side of the switch and then release. To stop
the sunshade from opening or closing, press
either side of the switch.
Auto-reverse function:
When the control unit detects something
caught by the sunshade, the sunshade will
open automatically.
NOTE
The auto-reverse function remains active
whether the sunshade is being closed manu-
ally or automatically. If the battery cable is disconnected, the clock
will need to be re-adjusted to the correct
time.

the [Settings] menu available in the central
display (see "Clock settings" in the "4. Display
screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio

INFINITI INTELLIGENT KEY
Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intel-
ligent Keys which are registered to your vehi-
cle's Intelligent Key System components and
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System compo-
nents.
Never leave the keys in the vehicle.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be reg-
istered and used with one vehicle. The new
keys must be registered prior to use with the
Intelligent Key System and INFINITI Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. Since the registration process
requires erasing all memory in the Intelligent
Key components when registering new keys,
be sure to take all Intelligent Keys that you
have to the INFINITI retailer.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 that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for duplicates by
using the key number. INFINITI does not re-
cord 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.CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occurrences
which will damage the Intelligent Key:
•Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which
contains electrical components, to come
into contact with water or salt water.
This could affect the system function.
•Do not drop the Intelligent Key.
•Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply
against another object.
•Do not change or modify the Intelligent
Key.
•Wetting may damage the Intelligent
Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im-
mediately wipe until it is completely dry.
•Do not place the Intelligent Key for an
extended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140 °F (60 °C).
•Do not attach the Intelligent Key with a
key holder that contains a magnet.
•Do not place the Intelligent Key near
equipment that produces a magnetic
field, such as a TV, audio equipment and
personal computers.
If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, INFINITI
recommends erasing the ID code of that In-
telligent Key. This will prevent the Intelligent
Key from unauthorized use to unlock the ve-
hicle. For information regarding the erasing
procedure, please contact an INFINITI re-
tailer.
Mechanical key
CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key installed
in the Intelligent Key.

KEYS
3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and per-
sonal computer, the battery life may become
shorter.
For additional information, refer to "Intelli-
gent Key battery replacement" in the "8. Do-
it-yourself" section.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be reg-
istered and used with one vehicle. For infor-
mation about the purchase and use of addi-
tional Intelligent Keys, it is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer.
CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occurrences
which will damage the Intelligent Key:

contains electrical components, to come
into contact with water or salt water.
This could affect the system function.
•Do not drop the Intelligent Key.
•Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply
against another object.
•Do not change or modify the Intelligent
Key.
•Wetting may damage the Intelligent
Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im-
mediately wipe until it is completely dry.

vent the unauthorized use of the Intelligent
Key to operate the vehicle. For information
regarding the erasing procedure, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer.
