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.


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. NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM KEYS (if so equipped) 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. These keys have a transponder chip in the key head.


The master key can be used for all the locks.


The valet key cannot be used for the console box lock, the bedside storage compartment lock, or the glove box lock (if so equipped).


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


DOORS


When the doors are locked using one of the following methods, the doors can not be opened using the inside or outside door handles. The doors must be unlocked to open the doors.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION This system is designed so that the driver’s seat will automatically move when the shift selector is placed in the P (Park) position. This allows the driver to get into and out of the driver’s seat more easily. The driver’s seat will slide backward: ● When the key is removed from the ignition


switch and the driver’s door is opened.


● When the driver’s door is opened with the ignition switch placed in the LOCK position. ● When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to LOCK with the driver’s door open. The driver’s seat will return to the previous posi- tion: ● When the key is inserted into the ignition


switch and the driver’s door is closed.


● When the driver’s door is closed with the ignition switch placed in the LOCK position. ● When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to ON while the shift selector is in the P (Park) position.
