The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior or exterior vehicle components in all situations. Al- ways secure your vehicle even if parking for a brief period. Never leave your Intelligent Key in the vehicle, and always lock the vehicle when unattended. Be aware of your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit areas whenever possible. Many devices offering additional protection, such as component locks, identification markers, and tracking systems, are available at auto supply stores and specialty shops. Your NISSAN dealer may also offer such equipment. Check with your insurance company to see if you may be eligible for discounts for various theft protection features. How to arm the vehicle security system 1. Close all windows. (The system can be armed even if the windows are open.) 2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the Intelligent Key, door handle request switch (if so equipped), power door lock switch or mechanical key.

security light begins to flash once every 3
seconds. If, during the 30-second pre-arm
time period, the driver’s door is unlocked by
the key or the keyfob, or the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position, the sys-
tem will not arm.
● Even when the driver and/or passen- gers are in the vehicle, the system will activate with all the doors, hood and trunk lid locked with the ignition switch placed in the LOCK position. When placing the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, the system will be released.
Vehicle security system activation The vehicle security system will give the following alarm: ● The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
● The alarm automatically turns off after ap- proximately 50 seconds. However, the alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door or trunk lid with the key, or button on the Intelli- by pressing the gent Key.
The alarm is activated by: ● opening the door or trunk lid without using the key or Intelligent Key (even if the door is unlocked by releasing the door inside lock switch).
How to stop an activated alarm The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s door or the trunk lid with the key, pressing button on the Intelligent Key, or press- the ing the request switch (if so equipped) on the driver’s or passenger’s door with the Intelligent Key in range of the door handle.

HEADLIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL SWITCH
XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so equipped)
WARNING
ᏘHIGH VOLTAGE
● When xenon headlights are on, they produce a high voltage. To prevent an electric shock, never attempt to modify or disassemble. Always have your xe- non headlights replaced at a NISSAN dealer.
● Xenon headlights provide considerably more light than conventional head- lights. If they are not correctly aimed, they might temporarily blind an oncom- ing driver or the driver ahead of you and cause a serious accident. If headlights are not aimed correctly, immediately take your vehicle to a NISSAN dealer and have the headlights adjusted correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially turned on, its brightness or color varies slightly. However, the color and brightness will soon stabilize.
● The life of xenon headlights will be shortened by frequent on-off opera- tion. It is generally desirable not to turn off the headlights for short intervals (for example, when the vehicle stops at a traffic signal). Even when the daytime running lights are active (Canada only), the xenon headlights do not turn on. This way the life of the xenon head- lights is not reduced.
● If the xenon headlight bulb is close to burning out, the brightness will drasti- cally decrease, the light will start blink- ing, or the color of the light will be- come reddish. If one or more of the above signs appear, contact a NISSAN dealer.

HOMELINK姞 UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped)
The HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver provides a convenient way to consolidate the functions of up to three individual hand-held transmitters into one built-in device. HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver: ● Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) devices such as garage doors, gates, home and office lighting, entry door locks and se- curity systems.
● Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No separate batteries are required. If the vehi- cle’s battery is discharged or is discon- nected, HomeLink姞 will retain all program- ming.
Once the HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver is programmed, retain the original trans- mitter for future programming procedures (Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of the programmed HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver buttons should be erased for security purposes. For additional information, refer to “Program- ming HomeLink姞” later in this section.
the vehicle,
WARNING
● Do not use the HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and re- verse features as required by federal safety standards. (These standards be- came effective for opener models manufactured after April 1, 1982). A ga- rage door opener which cannot detect an object in the path of a closing garage door and then automatically stop and reverse, does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features in- creases the risk of serious injury or death.
● During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will open and close (if the transmitter is within range). Make sure that people or objects are clear of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are programming.
● Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming the HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver.

grammed device, press and hold the pro- grammed HomeLink姞 button — releasing when the device begins to activate. If the indicator light on the HomeLink姞 blinks rapidly for 2 seconds and then turns solid, HomeLink姞 has picked up a “rolling code” garage door opener signal. You will need to proceed with the next steps to train the HomeLink姞 to complete the programming which may require a ladder and another per- son for convenience.
6. Press and release the “smart” or “learn” pro- gram button located on the garage door opener’s motor to activate the “training mode”. This button is usually located near the antenna wire that hangs down from the motor. If the wire originates from under a light lens, you will need to remove the lens to access the program button.
NOTE: Once you have pressed and released the program button on the garage door open- er’s motor and the “training light” is lit, you have 30 seconds in which to perform step 7. Use the help of a second person for conve- nience to assist when performing this step. 7. Within 30 seconds of pressing and releas- ing the garage door opener’s program but-

NOTE: Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to “clear” programmed HomeLink姞 buttons. If you have any questions or are having difficulty programming your HomeLink姞 buttons, refer to the HomeLink姞 web site at: www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515. PROGRAMMING HOMELINK姞 FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand- held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2 sec- onds. To program your hand-held transmitter to HomeLink姞, continue to press and hold the HomeLink姞 button (see steps 2 - 4under “Pro- gramming HomeLink姞”) while you press and re- press (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitters every 2 seconds until the indicator light flashes rapidly (indicating successful programming).
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener, etc., it is advised to unplug the device dur- ing the “cycling” process to prevent pos- sible damage to the garage door opener components. OPERATING THE HOMELINK姞 UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER The HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver (once pro- grammed) may now be used to activate the ga- rage door, etc. To operate, simply press the ap- propriate programmed HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver button. The red indicator light will illuminate while the signal is being transmitted. PROGRAMMING TROUBLE- DIAGNOSIS If the HomeLink姞 does not quickly learn the hand- held transmitter information: ● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
● position the hand-held transmitter with its from the

area
● press and hold both the HomeLink姞 and hand-held transmitter buttons without inter- ruption.
● position the hand-held transmitter 1 - 3
inches (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLink姞 surface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds.
If
HomeLink姞 is not programmed within that
time, try holding the transmitter in another
position – keeping the indicator light in view
at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties, please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs Department. The phone numbers are located in the Foreword of this manual. CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED INFORMATION Individual buttons cannot be cleared. However, to clear all programming, press and hold the two outside buttons and release when the indicator light begins to flash (approximately 20 seconds). ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMING Rolling code garage door openers (or other roll- ing code devices) which are “code protected” and manufactured after 1996, may be deter- mined by the following: ● Reference the garage door opener Owner’s
Manual for verification.
● The hand-held transmitter appears to pro- gram the HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver but does not activate the garage door.
● Press and hold the trained HomeLink姞 but- ton. If the garage door opener has the rolling code feature, the HomeLink姞 indicator light will flash rapidly, then remain on after 2 sec- onds.
To program the HomeLink姞 Universal Transceiver to a garage door opener with the rolling code feature, follow these instructions after completing the “Programming HomeLink姞” (the aid of a sec- ond person may make the following procedures quicker and easier).
1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener motor unit. Exact location and color of the button may vary by garage door opener brand. If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the garage door opener Owner’s Manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage door opener motor unit (which may activate a training light).
Instruments and controls 2-51
3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter
button.
4. The HomeLink姞 indicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light begins to flash rapidly, release both buttons.

3-2 Pre-driving checks and adjustments
Never leave these keys in the vehicle. As many as four Intelligent Keys can be regis- tered and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be registered by a NISSAN dealer prior to use with the Intelligent Key and NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the registration process requires erasing all memory in the Intelligent Key components when register- ing 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, see 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, your NISSAN dealer can duplicate it.
CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occur- rences which will damage the Intelligent Key: ● Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which contains electrical components, to come into contact with water or salt water. This could affect the system function.
● Do not drop the Intelligent Key. ● Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply
against another object.
● Do not change or modify the Intelligent
Key.
● Wetting may damage the Intelligent Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im- mediately wipe until it is completely dry. ● Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in an area where tem- peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM KEYS You can only drive your vehicle using the master keys which are registered to the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System components in your vehicle. The master key can be used for all the locks. Never leave these 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 Vehicle Immobilizer System keys. Your dealer can dupli- cate your existing key. This is because the regis- tration process will erase the memory of all key codes previously registered into the NISSAN Ve- hicle Immobilizer System. Do not allow the immobilizer system key, which contains an electrical transponder, to come into contact with salt water. This could affect system function.
