CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR
LOCK Child safety locking helps prevent doors from
being opened accidentally, especially when
small children are in the vehicle.
When the lever is in the LOCK position, the
rear door can be opened only from the
outside. It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, trunk lid
and fuel filler lid and activate the panic alarm
by using the keyfob from outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfob can operate at a distance of ap-
proximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the condi-
tions around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the pur-
chase and use of additional keyfob, contact
your INFINITI retailer.
The keyfob will not function when:
O the battery is dead,
O the distance between the vehicle and the
keyfob is over 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm and the trunk lid release
will not activate when the key is in the
ignition switch.
CAUTION The following conditions or occurrences
will damage the keyfob. O Do not allow the keyfob to become
wet.
O Do not drop the keyfob.
O Do not strike the keyfob sharply
against another object.
O Do not place the keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140ÉF (60ÉC).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, INFINITI
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 an authorized
INFINITI retailer.

WARNINGO Do not leave children, impaired
adults, or pets alone in your vehicle.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
O Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them from
playing and becoming locked in the
trunk where they could be seriously
injured. Keep the car locked with the
trunk closed when not in use, and
prevent children's access to car keys.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon monoxide)
WARNINGDo not breathe exhaust gases; they con- tain colorless and odorless carbon mon-
oxide. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or death.
O If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all
windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
O Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
O Do not park the vehicle with the en-
gine running for any extended length
of time.
O Keep the trunk lid closed while driv-
ing, otherwise exhaust gases could
be drawn into the passenger com-
partment. If you must drive with the
trunk lid open, follow these precau-
tions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the air recirculation switch
OFF and the fan control at 4 (high)
to circulate the air.
O If electrical wiring or other cable con- nections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the trunk lid or
the body, follow the manufacturer's
recommendation to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle.
O If a special body or other equipment
is added for recreational or other us-
age, follow the manufacturer's rec-
ommendation to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle.
(Some recreational vehicle appli-
ances such as stoves, refrigerator,
heaters, etc. may also generate car-
bon monoxide.)
O The exhaust system and body should
be inspected by a qualified mechanic
whenever:
a. The vehicle is raised for service.
b. You suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering into the passenger
compartment.
c. You notice a change in the sound
of the exhaust system.PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
