NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY®
SYSTEM
The Intelligent Key system allows the driver
to start the EV system without taking the
key out of a pocket or purse. The operating
environment and/or conditions may affect
Intelligent Key system operation.
Some indicators and warnings for opera-
tion are displayed on the vehicle informa-
tion display. For additional information, see
“Vehicle information display” (P. 2-26).
CAUTION
• Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key
with you when operating the vehicle.

the vehicle when you leave the
vehicle.
OPERATING RANGE FOR EV START
FUNCTION
The Intelligent Key function can only be
used for starting the EV system when the
Intelligent Key is within the specified oper-
ating range
O1.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost
discharged or strong radio waves are pres-
ent near the operating location, the Intelli-
gent Key system’s operating range be-
comes narrower and it may not function
properly. If the Intelligent Key is within the operating
range, it is possible for anyone, even some-
one who does not carry the Intelligent Key,
to push the power switch to start the EV
system.
• The cargo area is not included in the op-
erating range but the Intelligent Key may
function.
• If the Intelligent Key is placed on the in- strument panel or inside the glove box or
door pocket, the Intelligent Key may not
function.
• If the Intelligent Key is placed near a door or window outside the vehicle, the Intelli-
gent Key may not function.

change to ACC.
NOTE:
• When the power switch is placed in the ACC or ON position or READY to drive
mode by the above procedure, the EV
system operation for discharged Intel-
ligent Key system indicator appears on
the vehicle information display even if
the Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle.
This is not a malfunction. To stop the
warning indicator from blinking, touch
the power switch with the Intelligent
Key again.

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
will not allow the power switch to be placed
in the READY to drive position without the
use of the registered key.
If the power switch fails to place the vehicle
into the READY to drive position using the
registered key, it may be due to interfer-
ence caused by another registered key, an
automated toll road device or automated
payment device on the key ring. Restart the
EV system using the following procedure:
1. Leave the power switch in the ON posi- tion for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the power switch in the OFF posi- tion and wait approximately 10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 again.
4. Place the power switch in the READY to drive position while holding the device
(which may have caused the interfer-
ence) separate from the registered key.
If this procedure allows the power
switch to be placed in the READY to drive
mode, NISSAN recommends placing the
registered key on a separate key ring to
avoid interference from other devices. • Make sure that the area around the ve-
hicle is clear.
• Check fluid levels such as coolant, brake fluid, and windshield-washer fluid as fre-
quently as possible.
• Check that all windows and lights are clean.
• Visually inspect tires for their appearance and condition. Also check tires for proper
inflation.
• Check that all doors are closed.
• Position the seat and adjust the head restraints/headrests.
• Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
• Fasten seat belts and ask all passengers to do likewise.
• Check the operation of the warning lights when the power switch is pushed to the
ON position. For additional information,
see “Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders” (P. 2-14).

NOTE:
• Confirm that the vehicle is in the de-sired shif t position by checking the
shif t indicator
O1located near the shif t
lever or the vehicle information display
in the meter.
• To place the vehicle into the D (Drive) position from the B mode, move the
shif t lever into the D (Drive) position.
Af ter placing the vehicle in the READY to
drive position, fully depress the brake pedal,
and move the shif t lever to any of the pre-
ferred shif t positions.
If the power switch is placed in the OFF or
ACC position for any reason while the shif t
position is in any position other than the P
(Park) position, the power switch cannot be
placed in the LOCK position.
If the power switch cannot be placed in the
LOCK position, perform the following steps:
1. Apply the parking brake when the ve- hicle is stopped.
2. Place the power switch in the ON posi- tion while depressing the foot brake
pedal. 3. Push the P (Park) position switch and
confirm the vehicle is in the P (Park)
position.
4. Place the power switch in the OFF position.

When the following conditions overlap,
the shif t position may be automatically
switched to P (Park):
– When maintaining a stop and holdwith the e-pedal.
– When taking off the seatbelt.
– When opening the door.
WARNING
• The shif t lever is always in the home
position when released. When the
power switch is placed in the READY
to drive position, the driver needs to
confirm that the vehicle is in the P
(Park) position. The indicator next to
the “P” by the shif t lever is illumi-
nated and the “P” is displayed on the
meter. If the vehicle is in the D (Drive)
position or R (Reverse) position when
the power switch is placed in the
READY to drive position, this may
cause a sudden start which could re-
sult in an accident.
• On a hilly road, do not allow the ve-
hicle to roll backwards while in the D
(Drive) position or B mode or allow
the vehicle to roll forward while in the
R (Reverse) position. This may cause
an accident.
