●Do not put anything on the seat which insu-
lates heat, such as a blanket, cushion, seat
cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.
● Do not place anything hard or heavy on the
seat or pierce it with a pin or similar object.
This may result in damage to the climate
controlled seat.
● Any liquid spilled on the seat should be re-
moved immediately with a dry cloth.
● The climate controlled seat has an air filter.
Do not operate climate controlled seat with-
out an air filter. This may result in damage to
the system.
● When cleaning the seat, never use gasoline,
thinner, or any similar materials.
● If any malfunctions are found or the climate
controlled seat does not operate, turn the
switch off and have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer. The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system will
sound a warning chime and blink the lane
departure warning light
(orange) to alert
the driver if the vehicle is traveling close to
either the left or the right of a traveling lane
with detectable lane markers.
The LDW system activates automatically when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON posi-
tion. (This is the automatic setting mode.) The
LDW ON indicator
1on the switch will illumi-
nate.
To cancel the LDW system, push the LDW switch
to turn off the system. The LDW ON indicator
1
will turn off. Pushing the LDW switch will also turn off the
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system simul-
taneously.
The LDW system will automatically turn on
whenever the ignition switch is pushed to the
“ON” position, even if the LDW system was
previously turned off. To keep the LDW system
from turning on automatically each time the
ignition switch is pushed to the “ON” position,
push and hold the LDW switch for at least 4
seconds while the LDW ON indicator is off. This
enables the manual setting mode. In the
manual setting mode, the LDW system can be
turned on or off by briefly pushing the LDW
switch.

When the switch is in the DOOR positionA, the
light illuminates while the lift gate is opened.
When the lift gate is closed, the light will turn
off.
When the switch is in the OFF position
B, the
light will turn off.
The light will turn off after 30 minutes when the
lights remain illuminated to prevent the battery
from becoming discharged. 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) de-
vices 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. If the vehi-
cle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink will retain all program-
ming.
Once HomeLink Universal Transceiver is pro-
grammed, retain the original transmitter for fu-
ture programming procedures (Example: new ve-
hicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink Universal Transceiver
buttons should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, see “PROGRAMMING
HomeLink” later in this section.
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 stan-
dards 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
increases 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.

4. Hold down both buttons until the indica-tor light on HomeLink flashes, changing
from a “slow blink” to a “rapid blink”.
This could take up to 90 seconds. When
the indicator light blinks rapidly, both
buttons may be released. The rapidly
flashing light indicates successful pro-
gramming. To activate the garage door or
other programmed device, push and hold
the programmed HomeLink button - re-
leasing when the device begins to acti-
vate.
5. If the indicator light on HomeLink blinks
rapidly for two seconds and then turns
solid, HomeLink has picked up a “rolling
code” garage door opener signal. You will
need to proceed with the next steps to
train HomeLink, completing the pro-
gramming may require a ladder and an-
other person for convenience.
6. Push and release the program button located on the garage door opener’s mo-
tor to activate the “training mode”. This
button is usually located near the an-
tenna wire that hangs down from the
motor. If the wire originates from under a
light lens, you will need to remove the
lens to access the training button.NOTE:
Once you have pushed and released the
training button on the garage door opener’s
motor and the “training light” is lit, you have
30 seconds in which to perform step 7. For
convenience, use the help of a second person
to assist when performing this step.
7. Quickly (within 30 seconds of pushingand releasing the garage door opener
training button) and firmly push and re-
lease the HomeLink button you’ve just
programmed. Push and release the
HomeLink button up to three times to
complete the training.
8. Your HomeLink button should now be
programmed. To program the remaining
HomeLink buttons for additional door or
gate openers, follow steps 2 through 8
only.
NOTE:
Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to “clear”
all previously programmed HomeLink buttons.
If you have any questions or are having diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink buttons,
please refer to the HomeLink web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand-
held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2
seconds. To program your hand-held transmit-
ter to HomeLink, continue to push and hold
the HomeLink button (note steps 2 through 4
under “Programming HomeLink”) while you
push and re-push (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every 2 seconds until the indicator
light flashes rapidly (indicating successful pro-
gramming).
NOTE:
If programming a garage door opener, etc., it is
advised to unplug the device during the “cy-
cling” process to prevent possible damage to
the garage door opener components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
HomeLink Universal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the
garage door, etc. To operate, simply push the
appropriate programmed HomeLink Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.

WARNING
●Always have the doors locked while driving.
Along with the use of seat belts, this pro-
vides greater safety in the event of an acci-
dent by helping to prevent persons from be-
ing thrown from the vehicle. This also helps
keep children and others from unintention-
ally 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 inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY
The power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously using the
mechanical key.
● Turning the driver’s door key cylinder to the
front of the vehicle
1will lock all doors.
● Turning the driver’s door key cylinder once
to the rear of the vehicle
2will unlock the
driver’s door. After returning the key to the
neutral position
3, turning it to the rear
again within 60 seconds will unlock all
doors.
● You can switch the lock system to the mode
that allows you to open all the doors when
the key is turned once. (See “HOW TO USE SETTING BUTTON” in the “4. Monitor, cli-
mate, audio, phone and voice recognition
systems” section.)
OPENING AND CLOSING WINDOWS
WITH THE MECHANICAL KEY
The driver’s door key operation also allows you
to open and close all door windows.
To open the windows, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the rear of the vehicle for
longer than
1 second . The door is unlocked and the window
keeps opening while turning the key.
This function can also be performed by pushing
and holding the door UNLOCK button of the
Intelligent Key. (See “REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM” later in this section.)
To close the windows, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the front of the vehicle for longer
than 1 second . The door is locked and the

When the automatic door unlock system is
deactivated, the doors do not unlock when the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position
(models with Intelligent Key system) or when
the key is removed from the ignition switch
(models without Intelligent Key system). To
unlock the door manually, use the inside lock
knob or the power door lock switch (driver’s or
front passenger’s side).
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
Child safety rear door locks help prevent doors
from being opened accidentally, especially
when small children are in the vehicle.
When the levers are in the lock position
1, the
rear doors can be opened only from the outside.
To disengage, move the levers to the unlock
position
2.
