To program the Integrated HomeLink Univer- sal Transceiver to a garage door opener with the rolling code feature, follow these instruc- tions after completing the “Programming HomeLink ” (the aid of a second 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). NOTE: Following step 2, there are 30 seconds in which to initiate step 3.

3. Firmly press and release the programmed HomeLink button. Press and release the HomeLink button a second time to com- plete the training process. (Some garage door openers may require you to do this procedure a third time to complete the training.)

The garage door opener should now recognize the Integrated HomeLink Universal Trans- ceiver and activate when the HomeLink but- ton is pressed. The remaining two buttons may now be programmed (if not yet programmed, follow steps 2 through 4 in the “Programming HomeLink ” procedures earlier in this section). REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE HomeLink BUTTON To reprogram an Integrated HomeLink Uni-

versal Transceiver button, complete the follow- ing.

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button. Do not release the button until step 4 has been completed.

2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after 20 seconds), position the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 inches (50 to 127 mm) away from the HomeLink sur- face.

3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter

button.

4. The HomeLink

indicator light will

flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light begins to flash rapidly, re- lease both buttons.

The Integrated HomeLink Universal Trans- ceiver button has now been reprogrammed. The new device can be activated by pushing the HomeLink button that was just pro- grammed. This procedure will not affect any other programmed HomeLink buttons.

KEYS

DOORS

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 your NISSAN dealer. Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System keys: The key number is necessary when you need extra Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System keys. As many as 5 Nissan Vehicle Immobi- lizer System keys can be used with one ve- hicle. New keys must be registered to the Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System compo- nents in your vehicle by your NISSAN dealer. At this time, you should bring all Nissan Ve- hicle Immobilizer System keys that you have to your NISSAN dealer for registration. This is because the registration process will erase all memory of the Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System components.

WARNING

I Always have the doors locked while driving. 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 unintention- ally opening the doors, and will help keep out intruders.

I Before opening any door, always look

for and avoid oncoming traffic.

I Do not leave children unattended in- side the vehicle. They could unknow- ingly activate switches or controls. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.

You can only drive your vehicle using 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.

The keys can be used for the door, back door or glove box locks. Never leave these keys in the vehicle. Record the key number on the key number plate supplied with your keys and keep it in a safe place (such as your wallet), not in the vehicle. NISSAN does not record any key number so it is very important to keep track of your key number plate. 3-2 Pre-driving checks and adjustments

MULTI-REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM (if so equipped) It is possible to lock/unlock all doors and activate the panic alarm by using the remote controller from outside the vehicle. Before locking the doors, make sure the key is not left in the vehicle. The remote controller can operate at a dis- tance of approximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The effective distance depends upon the conditions around the vehicle.) As many as four remote controllers can be used with one vehicle. For information con- cerning the purchase and use of additional remote controllers, contact your NISSAN dealer.

The multi-remote controller will not function when: I the battery is dead, I the distance between the vehicle and the

remote controller is over 33 ft (10 m).

The panic alarm will not activate when the key is in the ignition switch.

CAUTION

The following conditions or occurrences will damage the remote controller.

I Do not allow the remote controller to

become wet.

I Do not drop the remote controller. I Do not strike the remote controller

sharply against another object.

I Do not place the remote controller for an extended period in an area where temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C).

If a multi-remote controller is lost or stolen, NISSAN recommends erasing the ID code of that controller. This will prevent the controller from unautho- rized use to unlock the vehicle. For in- formation regarding the erasing proce- dure, please contact an authorized NISSAN dealer.

HOW TO USE MULTI-REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM Setting hazard and horn chirp mode This vehicle is set in hazard and horn chirp mode when you first receive the vehicle. In hazard and horn chirp mode, when the LOCK button is pushed, the hazard indicator

Operating tips I Keep windows and sun roof closed while

the air conditioner is in operation.

I After parking in the sun, drive for two or three minutes with the windows open to vent hot air from the passenger compart- ment. Then, close the windows. This will allow the air conditioner to cool the interior more quickly.

I The air conditioning system should be operated for about ten minutes at least once a month. This helps prevent dam- age to the system due to lack of lubrica- tion.

I If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the hot position, turn the air conditioner off. For additional information, see “If your ve- hicle overheats” in the “6. In case of emer- gency” section.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER

The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone layer. However, special charging equipment and lu- bricant are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrig- erants or lubricants will cause severe damage to your air conditioning system. See “Capaci- ties and recommended fuel/lubricants” in the “10. Technical and consumer information” sec- tion for air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant recommendation. Your NISSAN dealer will be able to service your environmentally friendly air conditioning system.

WARNING

The air conditioner system contains re- frigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air conditioner ser- vice should be done only by an experi- enced technician with proper equip- ment.

AUDIO SYSTEM

Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON and press the power on switch to turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio with the engine not running, the key should be turned to the ACC position. Radio reception is affected by station signal strength, distance from radio transmitter, build- ings, bridges, mountains and other external influences. Intermittent changes in reception quality normally are caused by these external influences. Using a cellular phone in or near the ve- hicle may influence radio reception quality. Radio reception Your radio system is equipped with state-of- the-art electronic circuits to enhance radio reception. These circuits are designed to ex- tend reception range, and to enhance the quality of that reception. However there are some general characteris- tics of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect radio reception quality in a moving ve- hicle, even when the finest equipment is used. These characteristics are completely normal in a given reception area, and do not indicate any malfunction in your radio system. Remember that a moving vehicle is not the ideal place to listen to a radio. Because of the movement, reception conditions will constantly 4-12 Heater, air conditioner and audio systems

change. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and interference from other vehicles can work against ideal reception. Described below are some of the factors that can affect your radio reception.

SAA0306

FM RADIO RECEPTION Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single channel) FM having slightly more range than stereo FM. External influences may some- times interfere with FM station reception even if the FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance between the transmitter and re- ceiver. FM signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same characteristics as light. For example they will reflect off objects.

Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away

Z 00.1.17/R50-D/V5 X

from a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade and/or drift.

power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.

Static and flutter: During signal interference from buildings, large hills or due to antenna position, usually in conjunction with increased distance from the station transmitter, static or flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the treble control counterclockwise to reduce treble response. Multipath reception: Because of the reflective characteristics of FM signals, direct and re- flected signals reach the receiver at the same time. The signals may cancel each other, resulting in momentary flutter or loss of sound. AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low frequency, can bend around objects and skip along the ground. the signals can be bounced off the ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of these characteristics. AM signals are also subject to interference as they travel from transmitter to receiver. Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing through freeway underpasses or in areas with many tall buildings. It can also occur for sev- eral seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in areas where no obstacles exist. Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical

Precaution on cassette player operation: I To maintain good quality sound, NISSAN recommends using cassette tapes of 60
minutes or shorter in length.

I Cassette tapes should be removed from the player when not in use. Store cassettes in their protective cases and away from direct sunlight, heat, moisture and magnetic sources.

I Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed. The use of deformed cassettes may cause the cassette to jam in the player.

I Do not use cassettes with labels which are

peeling and loose. If used, the label could jam in the player.

I If a cassette has loose tape, insert a pencil through one of the cassette hubs and re- wind the tape firmly around the hubs. Loose tape may cause tape jamming and waver- ing sound quality.

I Over a period of time, the playback head, capstan and pinch roller may collect a tape coating residue as the tape is played. This residue accumulation can cause weak or wavering sound, and should be removed periodically with a head cleaning tape. If the residue is not removed periodically, the player may need to be disassembled for cleaning.
