key number. As many as four INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys can be used
with one vehicle. You should bring all
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System keys
that you have to the INFINITI retailer for
registration. This is because the registration
process will erase the memory of all key
codes previously registered into the INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System. After the regis-
tration process, these components will only
recognize keys coded into the INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System during registration.
Any virtual key accessories (if so equipped)
will also have to be reregistered. Any key that
is not given to the retailer at the time of
registration will no longer be able to start
your vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect system function. When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the inside or outside door
handles. The doors must be unlocked to open
the doors.
WARNING
• Always have the doors locked while driv-
ing. Along with the use of seat belts, this
provides greater safety in the event of an
accident by helping to prevent persons
from being thrown from the vehicle. This
also helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors, and
will help keep out intruders.
• Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
• To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance
of others or pets unattended in your ve-
hicle. Additionally, the temperature in-
side a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to cause a
significant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.

cause a distraction and it could lose con-
trol of your vehicle and cause an accident
or serious injury.
• Do not put a cigarette or flames to the
Smart Rear View Mirror, the camera unit
or wirings. It may cause a fire.
• Be sure to adjust the Smart Rear View
Mirror before driving. Switch the system
to the conventional rearview mirror
mode and be properly seated on the driv-
er’s seat. Then adjust the mirror so as to
see the rear window properly. Driving
without adjusting the mirror may cause
difficulty in watching the display at

or high beams from following vehicles)
enters the camera, a light beam or a glar-
ing light may appear on the monitor
screen of the Smart Rear View Mirror. In
that case, switch the system to the con-
ventional rearview mirror mode
appropriately.
• If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
exterior glass surface covering the cam-
era, the Smart Rear View Mirror may not
display object clearly. Use of the rear
window wiper/washer may improve vis-
ibility, but if not, switch the Smart Rear
View Mirror to the conventional rear-
view mirror mode until a time the glass
covering the camera can be cleaned.
