PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
NOTE:
Place the power switch in the ACC position
when programming HomeLink®. It is also
recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device being programmed to HomeLink®
for quicker programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency.
1. Position the end of your hand-heldtransmitter 1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away
from the HomeLink® surface, keeping
the HomeLink® indicator light
1in view.
2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold the desired HomeLink® button
and handheld transmitter button. DO
NOT release until the HomeLink® indi-
cator light
1flashes slowly and then
rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released.
(The rapid flashing indicates successful
programming.)
NOTE:
Some devices may require you to re-
place Step 2 with the cycling proce-
dure noted in the “Programming
HomeLink® for Canadian customers
and gate openers” section.

• If the indicator light
1blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to a
solid/continuous light, continue with
Steps 4-6 for a rolling code device. A
second person may make the following steps easier. Please use a ladder or
other device. Do not stand on your ve-
hicle to perform the next steps.
4. At the receiver located on the garage door opener motor in the garage, locate
the “learn” or “smart” button (the name
and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer but it is usually located
near where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the unit). If there is difficulty
locating the button, reference the ga-
rage door opener’s manual.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink® button
for two seconds and release. Repeat the
“press/hold/release” sequence up to
three times to complete the training
process. HomeLink® should now acti-
vate your rolling code equipped device.

difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
af ter several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink® to pick up the signal during
training. Similar to this Canadian law, some
U.S. gate operators are designed to “tim-
eout” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having diffi-
culties training a gate operator or garage
door opener by using the “Training” proce-
dures, replace “Programming HomeLink®”
Step 2 with the following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door
opener, etc., unplug the device during
the “cycling” process to prevent possible
damage to the garage door opener
components.
1. Refer to “Programming HomeLink®”
step 1 in this section.
Instruments and controls2-77

2. Using both hands, simultaneously pressand hold the desired HomeLink® button
and the hand-held transmitter button.
During training, your hand-held trans-
mitter may automatically stop transmit-
ting. Continue to press and hold the de-
sired HomeLink® button while you press
and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every two seconds until the
frequency signal has been learned. The
HomeLink® indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly af ter several
seconds upon successful training. DO
NOT release until the HomeLink® indica-
tor light flashes slowly and then rapidly.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly,
both buttons may be released. The rapid
flashing indicates successful training.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®”
step 3 to complete.
If the device was unplugged during the
programming procedure, remember to
plug it back in when programming is com-
pleted.OPERATING THE HOMELINK®
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, af ter
it is programmed, can be used to activate
the programmed device. To operate, sim-
ply press and release the appropriate pro-
grammed HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver button. The amber indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being trans-
mitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device may also be used at any
time.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information, per-
form the following steps.
• Replace the hand-held transmitter bat- teries with new batteries.
• Position the hand-held transmitter with its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink® surface. • Push and hold both the HomeLink® and
hand-held transmitter buttons without
interruption.
• Position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (2 to 8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® surface. Hold the transmitter
in that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLink® is not programmed within
that time, try holding the transmitter in
another position while keeping the indica-
tor light in view at all times.
If you continue to have programming diffi-
culties, please contact the NISSAN Con-
sumer Affairs Department. The phone
numbers are located in the Foreword of
this Owner’s Manual.CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from both buttons.
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. How-
ever, individual buttons can be repro-
grammed. For additional information, refer
to “Reprogramming a single HomeLink®
button” in this section.

ton has now been reprogrammed. The
new device can be activated by pushing
the HomeLink® button that was just pro-
grammed. This procedure will not affect
any other programmed HomeLink® but-
tons.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN
If your vehicle is stolen, you should change
the codes of any non-rolling code device
that has been programmed into
HomeLink®. Consult the owner’s manual of
each device or call the manufacturer or

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 recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF 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.
NOTE:
Do not leave the keys inside the vehicle
when leaving the vehicle.
NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY®
1. Intelligent Key (two sets)
2. Mechanical key (inside Intelligent Key)
3. Key number plate (one plate)
Your vehicle can only be driven with the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to
your vehicle’s Intelligent Key system com-
ponents and NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer
System components.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. The
new keys must be registered by a NISSANcertified LEAF dealer prior to use with the
Intelligent Key system and NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. 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
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
CAUTION
Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when driving. The Intelligent Key is
a precision device with a built-in trans-
mitter. To avoid damaging it, please
note the following.
• The Intelligent Key is water resis- tant; however, wetting may damage
the Intelligent Key. If the Intelligent
Key gets wet, immediately wipe until
it is completely dry.
• Do not bend, drop or strike it against another object.
• If the outside temperature is below 14°F (-10°C) degrees, the battery of
the Intelligent Key may not function
properly.
• Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in a place where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C).
KEYS
3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments

• Do not change or modif y the Intelli-gent Key.
• Do not use a magnet key holder.
• Do not place the Intelligent Key near an electric appliance such as a tele-
vision set, personal computer or cel-
lular phone.
• Do not allow the Intelligent Key to come into contact with water or salt
water, and do not wash it in a wash-
ing machine. This could affect the
system function.
If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen,
NISSAN recommends erasing the ID
code of that Intelligent Key. This will
prevent the Intelligent Key from unau-
thorized use to unlock the vehicle. For
information regarding the erasing pro-
cedure, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
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. For additional information, refer
to “Doors” in this section.
CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key in-
stalled in the Intelligent Key.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS
You can only drive your vehicle using the
master keys which are registered to the
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System com-
ponents in your vehicle. These keys have a
transponder chip in the key head.
The master key can be used for all the
locks.
To protect belongings when you leave a
key with someone, give them the Intelligent
Key only, not the mechanical key.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System keys. A NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer can duplicate your ex-
isting key. As many as four NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys can be used with
one vehicle. You should bring all NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System keys that you
have to the NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for
registration. This is because the registra-
tion process will erase the memory of all
key codes previously registered into the
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-3
