HOMELINKT UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped) The HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver provides a convenient way to consolidate the functions of up to three individual hand-held transmitters into one built-in device. HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver: c Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) devices such as garage doors, gates, home and office lighting, entry door locks and se- curity systems. c Is powered by your vehicle(cid:146)s battery. No separate batteries are required. If the vehi- cle(cid:146)s battery is discharged or is discon- nected, HomeLinkT will retain all program- ming. Once the HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver is programmed, retain the original trans- mitter for future programming procedures (Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of the programmed HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver buttons should be erased for security purposes. For additional information refer to (cid:147)Program- ming HomeLinkT(cid:148) later in this section. the vehicle, Instruments and controls 2-53 Z REVIEW COPY—2008 Pathfinder (pat) Owners Manual—USA_English (nna) 03/23/07—debbie X WARNING c Do not use the HomeLinkT 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. c 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. c Your vehicle(cid:146)s engine should be turned off while programming the HomeLinkT Universal Transceiver. 2-54 Instruments and controls WIC0986 PROGRAMMING HOMELINKT 1.

INTELLIGENT KEYS (if so equipped) Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelligent Keys which are registered to your vehicle(cid:146)s Intel- ligent Key system components and NISSAN Ve- hicle Immobilizer System components. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be regis- tered by a NISSAN dealer prior to use with the Intelligent Key system and NISSAN Vehicle Im- mobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the reg- Z REVIEW COPY—2008 Pathfinder (pat) Owners Manual—USA_English (nna) 03/23/07—debbie X istration process requires erasing all memory in the Intelligent Key components when registering new keys, be sure to take all Intelligent Keys that you have to the NISSAN dealer. CAUTION c 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. c Do not drop the Intelligent Key. c Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply against another object. c Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in an area where tem- peratures exceed 140(cid:176)F (60(cid:176)C). c Do not attach the Intelligent Key with a key holder that contains a magnet. c Do not place the Intelligent Key near equipment that produces a magnetic field, such as a TV, audio equipment and personal computers. CAUTION Always carry the mechanical key installed in the Intelligent Key slot. Valet hand-off When you have to leave a key with a valet, give them the Intelligent Key itself and keep the me- chanical key with you to protect your belongings. To prevent the glove box or console box from being opened during valet hand-off, follow the procedure below. 1. Remove the mechanical key from the Intelli- gent Key. 2. Lock the glove box or console box with the mechanical key. 3. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet and keep the mechanical key with you. See (cid:147)Storage(cid:148) in the (cid:147)Instruments and controls(cid:148) section. NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM KEYS You can only drive your vehicle using the master or valet keys which are registered to the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System components in your vehicle.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments 3-3 SPA1951 Mechanical key The Intelligent Key contains the mechanical key, which can be used in case of a discharged bat- tery. To remove the mechanical key, release the lock knob on the back of the Intelligent Key. To install the mechanical key, firmly insert it into the Intelligent Key until the lock knob returns to the lock position. The mechanical key can be used for operation in the same way as an ordinary key. Z REVIEW COPY—2008 Pathfinder (pat) Owners Manual—USA_English (nna) 03/23/07—debbie X DOORS WARNING c 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 unintentionally open- ing the doors, and will help keep out intruders. c Before opening any door, always look for and avoid oncoming traffic. c Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac- tivate switches or controls. Unattended children could become involved in seri- ous accidents. The master key can be used for all the locks. The valet key cannot be used for the glove box lock. To protect belongings when you leave a key with someone, give them the valet key only. 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. As many as five NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System keys can be used with one vehicle. You should bring all NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System keys that you have to your NISSAN dealer for registration. This is be- cause 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. Do not allow the immobilizer system key, which contains an electrical transponder, to come into contact with salt water. This could affect system function. 3-4 Pre-driving checks and adjustments Driver(cid:146)s side LPD0240 LOCKING WITH KEY The power door lock system allows you to lock or unlock all doors at the same time.

Those who use a pacemaker should contact the electric medical equipment manufacturer for the possible influences before use. The Intelligent Key system can operate all the door locks using the remote controller function or pushing the request switch on the vehicle without taking the key out from a pocket or purse. The operating environment and/or conditions may af- fect the Intelligent Key system operation. Be sure to read the following before using the Intelligent Key system. CAUTION c Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you when operating the vehicle. c Never leave the Intelligent Key in the vehicle when you leave the vehicle. The Intelligent Key is always communicating with the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Intel- ligent Key system transmits weak radio waves. Environmental conditions may interfere with the operation of the Intelligent Key system under the following operating conditions. c When operating near a location where strong radio waves are transmitted, such as a TV tower, power station and broadcasting station. c When in possession of wireless equipment, such as a cellular telephone, transceiver, and CB radio. c When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials. c When any type of radio wave remote control is used nearby. c When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric appliance such as a personal com- puter. c When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter. In such cases, correct the operating conditions before using the Intelligent Key function or use the mechanical key. Although the life of the battery varies depending on the operating conditions, the battery(cid:146)s life is approximately 2 years. the battery is dis- charged, replace it with a new one. When the Intelligent Key battery is low, the Intel- ligent Key system warning light ( ) will blink green for about 30 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. If Z REVIEW COPY—2008 Pathfinder (pat) Owners Manual—USA_English (nna) 03/23/07—debbie X LPD0299 CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK Child safety locks help prevent the rear doors from being opened accidentally, especially when small children are in the vehicle. The child safety lock levers are located on the edge of the rear doors. When the lever is in the lock position, the door can be opened only from the outside. 3-6 Pre-driving checks and adjustments If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, NISSAN recommends erasing the ID code of that Intelli- gent Key from the vehicle. This may prevent the unauthorized use of the Intelligent Key to operate the vehicle. For information regarding the erasing procedure, contact a NISSAN dealer. Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving radio waves, if the key is left near equipment which transmits strong radio waves, such as sig- nals from a TV and personal computer, the bat- tery life may become shorter. For information regarding replacement of a bat- tery, see (cid:147)Battery(cid:148) in the (cid:147)Maintenance and do-it- yourself(cid:148) section. Because the steering wheel is locked electrically, unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch in the LOCK position is impossible when the vehicle battery is completely discharged. Un- locking the steering wheel is impossible even if the Intelligent Key is inserted into the ignition switch. Pay special attention that the vehicle bat- tery is not completely discharged. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used with one vehicle. For information about the purchase and use of additional Intelligent Keys, contact a NISSAN dealer. CAUTION c 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. c Do not drop the Intelligent Key. c Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply against another object. c Do not change or modify the Intelligent Key. c Wetting may damage the Intelligent Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im- mediately wipe until it is completely dry. c Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in an area where tem- peratures exceed 140(cid:176)F (60(cid:176)C). c Do not attach the Intelligent Key with a key holder that contains a magnet. c Do not place the Intelligent Key near equipment that produces a magnetic field, such as a TV, audio equipment and personal computers.

The driver(cid:146)s seat will slide backward: c When the key is removed from the ignition switch and the driver(cid:146)s door is opened. c When the driver(cid:146)s door is opened with the ignition key turned to LOCK. c When the ignition key is turned from ACC to LOCK with the driver(cid:146)s door open. The driver(cid:146)s seat will return to the previous posi- tion: c When the key is inserted into the ignition switch and the driver(cid:146)s door is closed. c When the driver(cid:146)s door is closed with the key turned to LOCK. c When the key is turned from ACC to ON while the shift selector lever is in the P (Park) position. The entry/exit function can be adjusted or can- celed.
