Intelligent Key is a precision de-
vice with a built-in transmitter. To
avoid damaging it, please note
the following.
— The Intelligent Key is water
resistant; 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), 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.

. 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.

5-14Starting and driving
moved to the P (Park) position.
When the ignition switch cannot be
pushed toward the LOCK position, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Move the shift lever into the P (Park)position.
2. Push the ignition switch to the OFF position. The ignition switch position
indicator will not illuminate.
3. Open the door. The ignition switch will change to the LOCK position.
The shift lever can be moved from the P
(Park) position if the ignition switch is in
the ON position and the brake pedal is
depressed.
If the battery of the vehicle is dis-
charged, the push-button ignition
switch cannot be turned from the LOCK
position.
Some indicators and warnings for opera-
tion are displayed on the vehicle informa-
tion display between the speedometer
and tachometer. (See “Vehicle informa-
tion display” (P.2-20).)PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH
POSITIONS
LOCK (Normal parking position)
The ignition switch can only be locked in
this position.
The ignition switch will be unlocked when
it is pushed to the ACC position while
carrying the Intelligent Key.
ACC (Accessories)
This position activates electrical acces-
sories such as the radio, when the engine
is not running.
ACC has a battery saver feature that will
turn the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion after a period of time under the
following conditions:
. all doors are closed.
. shift lever is in P (Park).
. turn signal/hazard indicator lights are
not flashing.
The battery saver feature will be can-
celled if any of the following occur:
. any door is opened.
. shift lever is moved out of P (Park).
. ignition switch changes position.
ON (Normal operating position)
This position turns on the ignition system
and electrical accessories.
ON has a battery saver feature that will
turn the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion, if the vehicle is not running, after
some time under the following condi-
tions:
. all doors are closed.
. shift lever is in P (Park).
. turn signal/hazard indicator lights are
not flashing.
The battery saver feature will be can-
celled if any of the following occur:
. any door is opened.
. shift lever is moved out of P (Park).
. ignition switch changes position.
OFF
The engine can be turned off in the
position.
The ignition lock is designed so that the
ignition switch cannot be switched to the
LOCK position until the shift lever is
moved to the P (Park) position.

CAUTION
Do not leave the vehicle with the
push-button ignition switch in ACC or
ON positions when the engine is not
running for an extended period. This
can discharge the battery.
EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUT OFF
To shut off the engine in an emergency
situation while driving, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:

INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY DIS-
CHARGE
If the battery of the Intelligent Key is
discharged, or environmental conditions
interfere with the Intelligent Key opera-
tion, start the engine according to the
following procedure:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Firmly apply the foot brake.
3. Touch the ignition switch with the Intelligent Key as illustrated. (A chime
will sound.)
4. Push the ignition switch while depres- sing the brake pedal within 10 sec- onds after the chime sounds. The
engine will start.
After step 3 is performed, when the
ignition switch is pushed without depres-
sing the brake pedal, the ignition switch
position will change to ACC.
NOTE:
. When the ignition switch is pushed
to the ACC or ON position or the
engine is started by the above pro-
cedures, the Intelligent Key battery
discharge indicator appears on the
vehicle information display even if
the Intelligent Key is inside the
vehicle. This is not a malfunction.
To turn off the Intelligent Key bat-
tery discharge indicator, touch the
ignition switch with the Intelligent
Key again.
. If the Intelligent Key battery dis-
charge indicator appears, replace
the battery as soon as possible.
(See “Battery” (P.8-11).)
Starting and driving5-15

fuel cut mode.
5. To stop the engine, shift the shift lever to the P (Park) position and push the
ignition switch to the OFF position.
In preparation for the next engine start,
the engine may have a slightly delayed
shutoff after placing the ignition switch in
the OFF position, depending on the driv-
ing conditions.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start condi-
tions such as:
1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume
battery power when the engine is
not running (Phone chargers, GPS,
DVD players, etc.)
2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/
or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.
REMOTE ENGINE START (if so
equipped)
Vehicles started with the remote engine
start function require the ignition switch
to be placed in the ON position before the
shift lever can be moved from the P (Park)
position. To place the ignition switch in the ON position, perform the following
steps:
1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is
on you.
2. Firmly depress the brake pedal.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON position.
For additional information about the
remote engine start function, see “Re-
mote engine start” (P.3-19).
ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The engine has an engine protection
mode to reduce the chance of damage
if the coolant temperature becomes too
high (for example, when climbing steep
grades in high temperature with heavy
loads, such as when towing a trailer).
When the engine temperature reaches a
certain level:
. The engine coolant temperature
gauge will move toward the H posi-
tion.
. Engine power may be reduced.
. The air conditioning cooling function
may be automatically turned OFF for a
short time (the blower will continue to
operate).
Engine power and, under some condi-
tions, vehicle speed will decrease. Vehicle
speed can be controlled with the accel-
erator pedal, but the vehicle may not
accelerate at the desired speed. The
transmission will downshift or upshift as
it reaches prescribed shift points. You can
also shift manually.
As driving conditions change and engine
coolant temperature is reduced, vehicle
speed can be increased using the accel-
erator pedal, and air conditioning cooling
function will automatically be turned
back ON.
