Thebutton will be on the INFINITI In-
telligent Key if the vehicle has Remote Engine
Start. This feature allows the engine to start
from outside the vehicle.

∙ Vehicles with an automatic climate con- trol system will default to either a heating
or cooling mode depending on outside
and cabin temperatures. For additional
information, refer to “Remote Engine
Start with Intelligent Climate Control” in
the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and
voice recognition systems” section of this
manual. Laws in some local communities may restrict
the use of remote starters. For example,
some laws require a person using Remote
Engine Start to have the vehicle in view.
Check local regulations for any requirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of
the Remote Engine Start feature. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Conditions the
Remote Engine Start will not work” in this

OPERATING RANGE
WARNING
To help avoid risk of injury or death through
unintended operation of the vehicle and/or
its systems, including entrapment in win-
dows or inadvertent door lock activation,
do not leave children, people who require
the assistance of others or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm day
can quickly become high enough to cause a
significant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.
CAUTION
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave sources
are present near the operating location, the
Intelligent Key operating range becomes
narrower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
The Remote Engine Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the vehicle.
The Remote Engine Start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the vehicle.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-21

Linking log-in function to a stored
memory position
The log-in function can be linked to a stored
memory position with the following proce-
dure.1. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion while carrying the Intelligent Key
that was registered to the vehicle with a
log-in function.
NOTE:
Make sure the Intelligent Keys are far apart.
Otherwise, the vehicle may detect the
wrong Intelligent Key. 2. Adjust the position of the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors. For
additional information, refer to “Seats” in
the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section
of this manual, and “Steering wheel” and
“Outside mirrors” in this section.
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF po- sition.
The next time you log in (selecting the user on
the display) after placing the ignition switch in
the ON position while carrying the Intelligent
Key, the system will automatically adjust to
the memorized driving position. For additional information, refer to the sepa-
rate INFINITI InTouch™ Owner’s Manual and
“Log-in function” in this section.ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automatically
move when you the vehicle is engaged in the
P (Park) position. This allows the driver to
easily get in and out of the driver’s seat.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up when the igni-
tion is switched to OFF and the driver’s door
is opened.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will re-
turn to the previous position when the igni-
tion is switched to ON.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through the “Comfort & Conve-
nience” options of the “Settings” menu in the
lower touch-screen display by performing the
following:
∙ Switch the Lift Steering upon Exit from ON to OFF.
∙ Switch the Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit from ON to OFF.
For additional information, refer to the sepa-
rate INFINITI InTouch™ Owner’s Manual.
Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the stored memory positions will
be lost and some of the functions will be
restricted: 1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch
in the OFF position.
The entry/exit function should now work
properly.
SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION
The position of the following settings can be
linked to the Intelligent Key and the memo-
rized settings can be available for each Intel-
ligent Key. ∙ Climate control system
∙ Navigation system
∙ Audio system
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-39

To use the memory function, set the climate,
navigation and audio systems to the driver’s

Intelligent Key. Each Intelligent Key may be
set with the driver’s individual preferences.
When a new Intelligent Key is used, “Connec-
tion with the key has been done” will be dis-
played on the vehicle information display and
the memorized settings are available.
To engage the memorized settings, perform
the following:1. Carry the Intelligent Key that is linked to the memorized settings.
2. Unlock the doors by pushing the driver’s door handle request switch or the
button on the Intelligent Key.
3. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion. The settings linked to the Intelligent
