The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
provides a convenient way to consolidate
the functions of up to three individual
hand-held transmitters into one built-in
device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
.Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink® will retain
all programming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the origi-
nal transmitter for future programming
procedures (Example: new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased
for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” (P.2-76).
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver with any gar-
age door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as re-
quired by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became
effective for opener models man-
ufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then
automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
. During the programming proce-
dure your garage door or security
gate will open and close (if the
transmitter is within range). Make
sure that people or objects are
clear of the garage door, gate,
etc. that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be
turned off while programming
the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver. Do not breathe exhaust
gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or
death.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink®
The following steps show generic instruc-
tions how to program a HomeLink®
button. If you have any questions or are
having difficulty programming your
HomeLink® buttons, refer to the
HomeLink® web site at: www.homelink.
com/nissan or call 1-800-355-3515.
NOTE:
It is also recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink® for quicker
programming and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency.
1. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1-3 in (26-76 mm) away
from the HomeLink® surface, keeping
the HomeLink® indicator light
in
view.

PROGRAMMING HomeLink® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink® to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are de-
signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
or garage door opener by using the
“Programming HomeLink®” procedures,
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 possi-
ble damage to the garage door opener
components.
Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously
press and hold the desired HomeLink®
button and the hand-held transmitter
button. During programming, your hand-
held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting. Continue to press and hold
the desired 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 after several
seconds upon successful programming.
DO NOT
release until the HomeLink®
indicator light flashes slowly and then
rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released.
The rapid flashing indicates successful
programming.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®”
step 3 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in
when programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HomeLink® UNI-
VERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver,
after it is programmed, can be used to
activate the programmed device. To op-
erate, simply press and release the appro-
priate programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver button. The amber indicator
light will illuminate while the signal is
being transmitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device may also be used at any
time.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLESHOOT-
ING
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn
the hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter
batteries with new batteries.
. position the hand-held transmitter
with its battery area facing away from
the HomeLink® surface.
. press and hold both the HomeLink®
and hand-held transmitter buttons
without interruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1-3
in (26-76 mm) away from the
HomeLink® surface. Hold the transmit-
ter in that position for up to 15
seconds. If HomeLink® is not pro-
grammed within that time, try holding
the transmitter in another position -
keeping the indicator light in view at
all times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site
at: www.homelink.com/nissan or 1-800-
355-3515.

3-4Pre-driving checks and adjustments
— The Intelligent Key is waterresistant; 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).
— Do not change or modify the Intelligent Key.
— Do not use a magnet key holder.
— Do not place the Intelligent Key near an electric appliance
such as a television set, per-
sonal computer or cellular
phone.
— Do not allow the Intelligent Key to come into contact with
water or salt water, and do
not wash it in a washing machine. This could affect
the system function.
. If an Intelligent Key is lost or
stolen, NISSAN recommends
erasing the ID code of that Intel-
ligent Key. This will prevent the
Intelligent Key from unauthorized
use to unlock the vehicle. For
information regarding the eras-
ing procedure, it is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer.
SPA2033
Mechanical key
To remove the mechanical key, release
the lock knob at the back of the Intelli-
gent 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).)

3-8Pre-driving checks and adjustments
It is possible to lock/unlock all doors
(including the liftgate), and activate the
panic alarm by using the key fob from
outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The key fob can operate at a distance of
approximately 33 ft (10 m) from the
vehicle. (The effective distance depends
upon the conditions around the vehicle.)
As many as 4 key fobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information concerning
the purchase and use of additional key
fobs, contact a NISSAN dealer.
The key fob will not function:
.When the key fob is not within the
operational range.
. When the doors are open or not
closed securely.
. When the key is in the ignition switch.
. When the battery is discharged.
WARNING
The remote keyless entry key fob
transmits radio waves when the
buttons are pushed. The FAA advises
that the radio waves may affect
aircraft navigation and communica-
tion systems. Do not operate the key fob while on an airplane. Make sure
the buttons are not operated unin-
tentionally when the unit is stored
during a flight.
CAUTION
The following conditions or occur-
rences will damage the key fob.
. Do not allow the key fob to
become wet.
. Do not drop the key fob.
. Do not strike the key fob sharply
against another object.
. If the outside temperature is be-
low 14°F (-10°C) degrees, the bat-
tery of key fob may not function
properly.
. Do not place the key fob for an
extended period in an area where
temperatures exceed 140°F
(60°C).
If a key fob is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of
that key fob. This will prevent the key
fob from unauthorized use to unlock
the vehicle. For information regard-
ing the erasing procedure, it is re-
commended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.
For information regarding the replace-
ment of a battery, see “Key fob battery
replacement” (P.8-21).
