– Do not place the Intelligent Key near an electric appliance such as a televi-
sion set or a personal computer.

water, and do not wash it in a washing
machine. This could affect the system
function.
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.
Mechanical key
The Intelligent Key contains the mechanical
key.
To remove the mechanical key, release the
lock knob on 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
driver’s door and glove box if they are
equipped with a key cylinder.
CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key installed
in the Intelligent Key slot.
For additional information, refer to “Doors” in
this section and “Storage” in the “Instruments
and controls” section of this manual.
Valet hand-off
When you have to leave a key with a valet,
give them the Intelligent Key itself and keep
the mechanical key with you to protect your
belongings.
To prevent the glove box from being opened
during valet hand-off, follow the procedure
below. 1. Remove the mechanical key from the In- telligent Key.
2. Lock the glove box with the mechanical key.
3. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet and keep the mechanical key with you.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-3

INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS
You can only drive your vehicle using the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System compo-
nents in your vehicle.
The mechanical key can be used for all the
locks.
Never leave the keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys. Your existing
key can be duplicated without knowing the
key number. As many as four INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys can be used
with one vehicle. You should bring all
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System keys
that you have to the INFINITI retailer for
registration. This is because the registration
process will erase the memory of all key
codes previously registered into the INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System. After the regis-
tration process, these components will only
recognize keys coded into the INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System during registration.Any key that is not given to the retailer at the
time of registration will no longer be able to
start your vehicle.CAUTION
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt wa-
ter. This could affect system function.
When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the outside door handles. The
doors must be unlocked to open the doors.WARNING
∙ Always have the doors locked while driv-
ing. 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 ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows and/or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others and/or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of in-
jury or death to people and/or pets.
DOORS
3-4Pre-driving checks and adjustments

interfere with the operation of the Intelligent
Key system under the following operating
conditions:∙ When operating near a location where strong radio waves are transmitted, such
as a TV tower, power station and broad-
casting station.
∙ When in possession of wireless equip- ment, such as a cellular telephone, trans-
ceiver or a CB radio.
∙ When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials.
∙ When any type of radio wave remote control is used nearby.
∙ When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric appliance such as a personal
computer.
∙ When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter.
In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key function
or use the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the bat-
tery’s life is approximately two years. If the
battery is discharged, replace it with a new
one. When the Intelligent Key battery is low, a
“Key Battery Low” indicator illuminates in the
vehicle information display. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Vehicle information dis-
play warnings and indicators” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.
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 “Battery
replacement” in the “Do-it-yourself” section
of this manual.
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, immedi-
ately 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.

DOOR LOCKS/UNLOCKS
PRECAUTION
∙ Do not push the door handle requestswitch with the Intelligent Key held in
your hand as illustrated. The close dis-
tance to the door handle will cause the

locked using the door handle request
switch, make sure that the doors have
been securely locked by operating the
door handles. If you keep holding the

handle request switch or the one touch
unlock sensor) can be set to remain inac-
tive. For additional information, refer to
the separate INFINITI InTouch™ Own-
er’s Manual.
∙ The door cannot be unlocked using the one touch unlock operation after locking
the door within 2 seconds. To unlock the
door, release the one touch unlock sensor
once and touch it again. ∙ If a large amount of water runs down on
the door handle (for example, when
washing the vehicle or in heavy rain), the
door may unlock if the Intelligent Key is in
range of operation. To prevent the door
from being unlocked, the Intelligent Key
should be more than 7 ft (2 m) away from
the vehicle.
∙ Do not hold and pull the door handle quickly. The door will be unlocked but will
not open. Release the door handle once
and pull it again to open the door.
∙ If you pull the door handle with a gloved hand, the one touch unlock operation
may not function.
