XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so equipped)

WARNING

HIGH 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 xenon headlights replaced at a NISSAN dealer.

. Xenon headlights provide consider- ably more light than conventional headlights. If they are not correctly aimed, they might temporarily blind an oncoming driver or the driver ahead of you and cause a serious accident. If headlights are not aimed correctly, immediately take your ve- hicle 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

2-32 Instruments and controls

Black plate (100,1)

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 blinking, or the color of the light will become reddish. If one or more of the above signs appear, contact a NISSAN dealer.

See “Headlight aiming control” later in this section for information about adjusting the light axis.

WARNING

WARNING

When the daytime running light 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.

Xenon headlights are extremely bright compared to conventional headlights. If the xenon headlights hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle ahead or the windshield of oncoming vehicle, the driver of these vehicles may have difficulty driving because of the bright- ness. Use the headlight aiming control switch to lower the light axis. See “XENON HEADLIGHTS” earlier in this section for additional information.

Daytime running light system (Canada only) The daytime running lights automatically illumi- nate when the engine is started with the parking brake released. The daytime running lights operate with the headlight switch in the OFF position or position. Turn the headlight switch to the position for full illumination when driving at night.

HomeLink® UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped)

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver provides a convenient way to consolidate the functions of up to three individual hand-held transmitters into one built-in device. HomeLink® Universal Transceiver: . Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) devices such as garage doors, gates, home and office lighting, entry door locks and security systems.

Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No separate batteries are required. the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is dis- connected, HomeLink® will retain all pro- gramming.

If

Once HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is programmed, retain the original transmit- ter for future programming procedures (Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of the programmed HomeLink® Universal Transceiver buttons should be erased for security purposes. For additional information, see “PRO- GRAMMING HomeLink®” later in this sec- tion.

WARNING

. Do not use HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and

reverse features as required by federal safety standards. (These standards became effective for opener models manufactured after April 1, 1982.) A garage 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 programming procedure, your garage door or security gate may open or close. Make sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are programming.

. Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.

PROGRAMMING HomeLink® To program your HomeLink® Transceiver to operate a garage door, gate, or entry door opener, home or office lighting, you need to be at the same location as the device. Note: Garage door openers (manufactured after

KEYS

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 any 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, this key can be duplicated by a NISSAN dealer.

Key number plate (1) NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYS- TEM KEYS Your vehicle can only be driven with the master keys which are registered to the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System components in your vehicle. These keys have a transponder chip in the key head.

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 duplicate your existing key. As many as 4 keys can be used with one vehicle. You should bring all the registered keys that you have to a NISSAN dealer for registration. This is because the registration process will erase the memory of all key codes previously registered into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System. After the registration process, these components will only recognize keys coded into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System during registration. Any key that is not given to your dealer at the time of registration will no longer be able to start your vehicle.

Model "Z51-D" EDITED: 2007/ 10/ 2

CAUTION

Do not allow the NISSAN Vehicle Im- mobilizer System key, which contains an electrical transponder, to come in contact with salt water. This could cause the system to malfunction.

INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM (if so equipped) Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelligent Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s Intelligent Key system components and NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System compo- nents. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be registered by a NISSAN dealer prior to use with the Intelligent Key system and NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the registration process requires erasing all memory in the Intelligent Key compo- nents when registering new keys, be sure to take all Intelligent Keys that you have to the NISSAN dealer.

CAUTION

. Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you when driving. The Intelli- gent Key is a precision device with a

built-in transmitter. To avoid dama- ging it, please note the following.

— The Intelligent Key is water resistant; however, wetting may damage the Intelligent Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, immediately wipe until it is com- pletely dry.

— Do not bend, drop or strike it

against another object.

— Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in a place where temperatures ex- ceed 1408F (608C).

— Do not change or modify the

Intelligent Key.

— Do not use a magnet key holder. — Do not place the Intelligent Key near an electric appliance such as a television set or personal computer.

— Do not allow the Intelligent Key to come into contact with water or salt water, and do not wash it in a washing machine. This could affect the system function. If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, NISSAN recommends erasing the ID
