3. The indicator light for the pushedmemory switch will come on and stay
on for approximately 5 seconds.
4. The chime will sound if the memory has been stored.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in
the same memory switch, the previous
memory position will be overwritten by
the new stored position.
Confirming memory storage
Push the SET switch. If a memory position
has not been stored in the switch (1 or 2)
the indicator light for the respective
switch will come ON for approximately
0.5 seconds. If a memory position has
been stored in the switch (1 or 2) then the
indicator light for the respective switch
will stay ON for approximately 5 seconds.
Recalling switch memory positions
To recall the manually stored positions,
push the memory switch (1 or 2). The
driver’s seat and the outside mirrors will
move to the positions stored in the
memory switch.
Linking log-in function to a stored
memory position (models with na-
vigation system)
The log-in function can be linked to a
stored memory position with the follow-
ing procedure.
1. Place the ignition switch in the ON position while carrying the Intelligent
Key that was registered to the vehicle
with a log-in function.
NOTE:
Make sure the Intelligent Key is far
apart. Otherwise, the vehicle may
detect the wrong Intelligent Key.
2. Adjust the position of the driver’s seat and outside mirrors. (See “Seats” (P.1-3)
and “Outside mirrors” (P.3-34).)
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.
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 memor-
ized driving position. (See the separate
NissanConnect® Owner’s Manual.)
Linking an Intelligent Key to a
stored memory position (models
without navigation system)
Each Intelligent Key can be linked to a
stored memory position (memory switch
1 or 2) with the following procedure.
1. Follow steps 1-3 in the “Memory sto- rage function” (P.3-36) for storing the
memory position.
2. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come on. While
the indicator light is on for 5 seconds,
press the
button and thebutton on the Intelligent Key in suc-
cession. The indicator light of the
linked memory switch will blink. After
the indicator light goes off, the Intel-
ligent Key is linked to that memory
setting.
Once it is linked, when ignition switch is
placed in the OFF position, pressing the
button on the Intelligent Key will
move the driver’s seat and outside mir-
rors to the linked memory switch posi-
tion.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in
the linked memory switch, then the
Intelligent Key will link the new position
and overwrites the previous position.
