coming vehicle or the leading ve-
hicle are turned off, when the color
of the light is affected due to for-
eign materials on the lights, or
when the light beam is out of
position.
– When there is a sudden, continu-
ous change in brightness.
– When driving on a road that
passes over rolling hills, or a road
that has level differences.
– When driving on a road with many
curves.

Ambient image sensor maintenance
The ambient image sensorOAfor the High
Beam Assist system is located in front of
the inside mirror. To maintain the proper
operation of the high beam assist system
and prevent a system malfunction, be sure
to observe the following:
• Always keep the windshield clean.
• Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the ambient image sensor.
• Do not strike or damage the areas around the ambient image sensor. Do
not touch the sensor lens that is located
on the ambient image sensor. If the ambient image sensor is damaged
due to an accident, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer.
Battery saver system
If the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position while the headlight switch is in the
orposition, the headlights will
turn off af ter a period of time.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature
automatically turns off the headlights
af ter a period of time, you should turn
the headlight switch to the OFF posi-
tion when the engine is not running to
avoid discharging the vehicle battery.
LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(DRL) SYSTEM
The LED portion of the headlights auto-
matically illuminate at 100% intensity when
the engine is started and the parking brake
is released. The LED Daytime Running
Lights (DRL) operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position. When you turn
the headlight switch to the
position
for full illumination, the LED lights switch
from LED DRL to the park function. If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the LED DRL do not illumi-
nate. The LED DRL illuminate when the
parking brake is released. The LED DRL re-
main on until the ignition is placed in the
OFF position.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight
switch on for interior controls and switches
to illuminate, as those remain off while the
switch is in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active, tail
lights on your vehicle are not on. It is
necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could cause
an accident injuring yourself and
others.

PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
af ter several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink® to pick up the signal during
training. Similar to this Canadian law, some
U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-
out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having diffi-
culties training a gate operator orgarage
door opener by using the “Programming
HomeLink®” procedures, replace“Pro-
gramming HomeLink®” step 3with the
following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door
opener, etc., unplug the device during
the “cycling” process to prevent possible
damage to the device components. Step 3: While the HomeLink® indicator light
is flashing in orange, press and release (“cy-
cling”) the hand-held transmitter button
every 2 seconds. Continue to press and
release the hand-held transmitter button
until the HomeLink® indicator light
changes from orange to green. When the
indicator light illuminates in green, the
hand-held transmitter button may be
released.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®”
step 4 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in when
programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK®
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, af ter
it is programmed, can be used to activate
the programmed device. To operate, firmly
press the appropriate programmed
HomeLink® button. The indicator light will
illuminate in green with three parenthesis
on the mirror while the signal is being
transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
• Replace the hand-held transmitter bat- teries with new batteries.
• Position the hand-held transmitter with its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink® button.
• Press and hold both the HomeLink® but- ton and hand-held transmitter button in
each step without interruption.
• Position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (2 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button. Hold the transmitter in that posi-
tion for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink® is
not programmed within that time, try
holding the transmitter in another posi-
tion – for example, 6 to 12 in (15 to 20 cm)
away, keeping the HomeLink® button in
view at all times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com/nissan or call
1-800-355-3515.
