trunk INFINITI G 2010 Owner's Manual

WARNING
●Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use a pace-
maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible in-
fluences before use.
● The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves
when the buttons are pushed. The FAA ad-
vises that the radio waves may affect aircraft
navigation and communication systems. Do
not operate the Intelligent Key while on an
airplane. Make sure the buttons are not op-
erated unintentionally when the unit is
stored during a flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all the
doors and the trunk lid using the remote con-
troller 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 affect the Intelligent Key
system operation.
Be sure to read the following before using the
Intelligent Key system.
CAUTION
● Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you
when operating the vehicle.
● 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
Intelligent Key system transmits weak radio
waves. Environmental conditions may interfere
with the operation of the Intelligent Key system
under the following operating conditions.
● When operating near a location where strong
radio waves are transmitted, such as a TV
tower, power station and broadcasting sta-
tion.
● When in possession of wireless equipment,
such as a cellular telephone, transceiver,
and CB radio.
● When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or
covered by metallic materials.
● When any type of radio wave remote control
is used nearby.
● When the Intelligent Key is placed near an
electric appliance such as a personal com-
puter. ●
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 depend-
ing on the operating conditions, the battery’s
life is approximately 2 years. If the battery is
discharged, replace it with a new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost dis-
charged, insert the Intelligent Key into the
Intelligent Key port to start the engine. Replace
the discharged battery with a new one as soon
as possible. For more details, see “PUSH-
BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiv-
ing radio waves, if the key is left near equip-
ment which transmits strong radio waves, such
as signals from a TV and personal computer, the
battery life may become shorter.
For information regarding replacement of a bat-
tery, see “INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY REPLACE-
MENT” in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-
yourself” section.

When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged
or strong radio waves are present near the
operating location, the Intelligent Key system’s
operating range becomes narrower, and the
Intelligent Key may not function properly.
The operating range is within 31.50 in (80 cm)
from each request switch
1.
If the Intelligent Key is too close to the door
glass, handle or rear bumper the request
switches may not function.
When the Intelligent Key is within the operating
range, it is possible for anyone who does not
carry the Intelligent Key to push the request
switch to lock/unlock the doors and open the
trunk lid.
DOOR LOCKS/UNLOCKS PRECAUTION
● Do not push the door handle request switch
with the Intelligent Key held in your hand as
illustrated. The close distance to the door
handle will cause the Intelligent Key system
to have difficulty recognizing that the Intel-
ligent Key is outside the vehicle.
● After locking with the door handle request
switch, verify the doors are securely locked
by testing them.
● To prevent the Intelligent Key from being left
inside the vehicle or the trunk, make sure
you carry the key with you and then lock the
doors or the trunk. ●
Do not pull the door handle before pushing
the door handle request switch. The door
will be unlocked but will not open. Release
the door handle once and pull it again to
open the door.
● The Intelligent Key system (opening/closing
doors with the door handle request switch)
can be set to remain inactive. (See “VEHICLE
INFORMATION AND SETTINGS” in the “4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systems” section.)
