WARNING
∙ Radio waves could adversely affectelectric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influ-
ences before use.
∙ The remote keyless entry key fob transmits radio waves when the but-
tons are pressed. The FAA advises ra-
dio waves may affect aircraf t naviga-
tion and communication systems. Do
not operate the remote keyless entry
key fob while on an airplane. Make
sure the buttons are not operated un-
intentionally when the unit is stored
for a flight.
It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, turn
the interior lights on, and activate the panic
alarm by using the key fob from outside the
vehicle.
Be sure to remove the key from the ve-
hicle before locking the doors.
The key fob can operate at a distance of
approximately 33 f t (10 m) from the vehicle.
The effective distance depends on the
conditions around the vehicle. As many as four key fobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information concerning
the purchase and use of additional key
fobs, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
The key fob will not function when:
∙ The battery is discharged.
∙ The distance between the vehicle and the key fob is over 33 f t (10 m).
The panic alarm will not activate when
the key is in the ignition switch.
CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the key fob:
∙ Do not allow the key fob, which con- tains electrical components, to come
into contact with water or salt water.
This could affect the system function.
∙ Do not drop the key fob.
∙ Do not strike the key fob sharply against another object.
∙ Do not change or modif y the key fob.
∙ Wetting may damage the key fob. If the key fob gets wet, immediately
wipe until it is completely dry. ∙ Do not place the key fob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).
∙ Do not attach the key fob with a key holder that contains a magnet.
∙ Do not place the key fob near equip- ment that produces a magnetic field,
such as a TV, audio equipment and
personal computers.
If a key fob is lost or stolen, NISSAN rec-
ommends erasing the ID code of that
key fob. This will prevent the key fob
from unauthorized use to unlock the
vehicle. For information regarding the
erasing procedure, it is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHT
Battery indicator light illuminates when
you press any button. The number of blink-
ing is different to identif y each registered
Intelligent Keys. If the light does not illumi-

yourself ” section of this manual.
WARNING
∙ Radio waves could adversely affect electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influ-
ences before use.
∙ The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves when the buttons are pressed.
The FAA advises the radio waves may
affect aircraf t navigation and com-
munication systems. Do not operate
the Intelligent Key while on an air-
plane. Make sure the buttons are not
operated unintentionally when the
unit is stored for a flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the door locks using the remote control
function or pushing the request switch on
the vehicle without taking the key out from

Intelligent Key button operation
light
The light blinks only when you press any
button on the Intelligent Key. The light illu-
mination only signifies that the key fob has
transmitted a signal. You may look and/or
listen to verif y that the vehicle has per-
formed the intended operation. The num-
ber of blinks identifies each registered key
(i.e. 1 blink = 1st key,...,4 blinks = 4th key) for
your own identification purposes.If the light does not blink, your battery may
be too weak to communicate to the ve-
hicle. If this occurs, the battery may need to
be replaced. For additional information re-
garding the replacement of a battery, refer
to “Battery replacement” in the “Do-it-
yourself ” section of this manual.
WARNING SIGNALS
To help prevent the vehicle from moving
unexpectedly by erroneous operation of
the Intelligent Key or to help prevent the
vehicle from being stolen, a chime or
buzzer sounds from inside and outside the
vehicle and a warning is displayed in the
instrument panel.
When a chime or beep sounds or a warning
is displayed, be sure to check the vehicle
and the Intelligent Key.
For additional information, refer to the
“Troubleshooting guide” in this section and
“Vehicle information display” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Verif y the location of all Intelligent Keys that
are programmed for the vehicle. If another
Intelligent Key is in range or inside the ve-
hicle, the vehicle system may respond dif-
ferently than expected.
