NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY®
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.
Never leave the keys in the vehicle.As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. The
new keys must be registered prior to the
use with the Intelligent Key system and
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System of your
vehicle. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. 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 dealer.
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 dealer for
duplicates by using the key number.
NISSAN does not record 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.

If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of that
Intelligent Key from the vehicle. This may
prevent the unauthorized use of the Intelli-
gent Key to operate the vehicle. For infor-
mation regarding the erasing procedure, it
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer.
Mechanical key
The Intelligent Key contains the mechani-
cal key.
To remove the mechanical key, release the
lock knob on 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 driver's door, tailgate and glove box.

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS
You can only drive your vehicle using the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to the
NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System com-
ponents in your vehicle.
The mechanical key can be used for all the
locks.
Never leave the 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 Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys. Your existing
key can be duplicated without knowing the
key number. As many as four NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys can be used with
one vehicle. You should bring all NISSAN Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys that you have
to the NISSAN dealer for registration. This is
because the registration process will erase
the memory of all key codes previously reg-
istered into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer
System. Af ter the registration process, these
components will only recognize keys coded
into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
during registration. Any key that is not given
to the dealer at the time of registration will
no longer be able to start your vehicle.
