•Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the wind-
shield becomes dirty in dry weather con-
ditions, the windshield wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could
damage the windshield wiper blades or
scratch the windshield.
For this reason, you should always
switch off the windshield wipers in dry
weather.
Vehicles with a rain sensor: in the
orposition, the appropriate wiping fre-
quency is automatically set according to the
intensity of the rain. In the
position, the
rain sensor is more sensitive than in the
position, causing the windshield wiper
to wipe more frequently.
If the wiper blades are worn, the windshield
will no longer be wiped properly. This could
prevent you from observing the traffic condi-
tions.

immediately after use.
•Only certain power outlets are designed
for use with a cigarette lighter unit. Do
not use any other power outlet for an
accessory lighter. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for additional
information.
•Do not use with accessories that exceed
a 12 volt, 180W (15A) power draw. Do
not use double adapters or more than
one electrical accessory.

When the Intelligent Key battery is low, an
indicator illuminates in the vehicle informa-
tion display. For additional information, refer
to "Safety systems".
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".
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:
•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 from the vehicle. This may pre-
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.
