1. Master key (x2)
2. Key number plate
A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep the key num-
ber plate in a safe place except in the vehicle. If
you lose your keys, see an NISSAN dealer for
duplicates by using the key number.
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, a NISSAN dealer can
duplicate it.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYSYou 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 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.
NVIS KEY — Master key:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys. Your NISSAN dealer
can duplicate it. As many as 5 NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys can be used with one
vehicle. You should bring all the registered keys
that you have to a NISSAN dealer for registra-
tion. This is because the registration process will
erase all memory of the NISSAN Vehicle Immo-
bilizer System components. 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.
CAUTION
Do not allow the NISSAN Vehicle Immo-
bilizer System key, which contains an
electrical transponder, to come into
contact with salt water. This could affect
system function.

WARNING
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 uninten-
tionally opening the doors, and will
help keep out intruders.
Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
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.
LOCKING WITH KEYThe power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously.
Turning the driver’s door key to the front of
the vehicle
1
will lock all doors (including
the back door).
Turning the driver’s door key one time to the
rear of the vehicle2
will unlock the driver’s
door. From that position, returning the key to
neutral (where the key can only be removed
and inserted) and turning it to the rear again
within 5 seconds will unlock all doors.
LOCKING WITH INSIDE LOCK
KNOBTo individually lock the doors, move the inside
lock knobto the LOCK
1
position, then close
the door.
To unlock, pull the inside lock knobup to the
UNLOCK
2
position.
When locking the door without a key, be
sure not to leave the key inside the vehicle.

LOCKING WITH POWER DOOR
LOCK SWITCHOperating the power door lock switch will lock
or unlock all doors (driver and front passenger
sides).
To lock the doors, push the power door lock
switch located on the driver’s armrest to the
LOCK position

with the driver’s or front
passenger’s door open, then close the door.
When locking the door this way, be certain
not to leave the key inside the vehicle.
To unlock, push the power door lock switch to
the UNLOCK position2.
Lockout protectionWhen the power door lock switch (driver or front
passenger) is moved to the LOCK position
1
with the key in the ignition and any door open, all
doors will lock and unlock automatically. This
helps to prevent the keys from being accidentally
locked inside the vehicle.
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCKThe child safety rear door lock helps prevent
doors from being opened accidentally, espe-
cially when small children are in the vehicle.
When the lever is in the LOCK position
1,
the rear door can be opened only from the
outside.
To disengage, move the lever to the FREE

It is possible to lock/unlock all doors (including
the back door) and activate the panic alarm by
using the keyfobfrom outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfobcan operate at a distance of approxi-
mately 10 m (33 ft) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as five keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the purchase
and use of additional keyfobs, contact a NISSAN
dealer.
The keyfobwill not function when:
the battery is discharged,
the distance between the vehicle and the
keyfobis over 10 m (33 ft).
The panic alarm will not activate when the
key is in the ignition switch.
CAUTION
The following conditions or occurrences
will damage the keyfob.
Do not allow the keyfob to become
wet.Do not drop the keyfob.
Do not strike the keyfob sharply
against another object.
Do not place the keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 60°C (140°F).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of that
keyfob. This will prevent the keyfob
from unauthorized use to unlock the
vehicle. For information regarding the
erasing procedure, please contact a
NISSAN dealer.
