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
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System keys.
An INFINITI dealer can duplicate it. As
many as 5 INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer
System keys can be used with one ve-
hicle. You should bring all registered keys
that you have to an INFINITI dealer for reg-
istration. This is because the registration
process will erase the memory of all key
codes previously registered into the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System. After
the registration process, these compo-
nents will only recognize keys coded into
the INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
during registration. Any key that is not
given to your dealer at the time of regis-
tration 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. WARNING O Always have the doors locked while driv-
ing. 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
unintentionally opening the doors, and
will help keep out intruders.
O Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
O Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved in se-
rious accidents.

Lockout protection When the power door lock switch (driver
or front passenger) is moved to the LOCK
position with the key in the ignition and
any door open, all doors will lock and un-
lock automatically. This helps to prevent
the keys from being accidentally locked
inside the vehicle.
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
(Sedan) Child safety rear door lock helps prevent
rear doors from being opened acciden-
tally, especially when small children are
in the vehicle.
When the levers are in the LOCK
q 1
posi-
tion, the rear doors can be opened by the
outside door handles only.
To disengage, move the levers to the un-
lock position
q 2
. It is possible to lock/unlock all doors,
trunk lid and fuel-filler door 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 maximum
distance of approximately 33 ft (10 m)
away from the vehicle. (The operating dis-
tance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information about pur-
chase and use of additional keyfobs, con-
tact an INFINITI dealer.
The keyfob will not function when:
O the battery is completely discharged,
O the distance between the vehicle and
the keyfob is more than 33 ft (10 m).

O Do not strike the keyfob sharply against
another object.
O Do not place the keyfob for an extended
period in an area where temperatures ex-
ceed 140ÉF (60ÉC).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, INFINITI recom-
mends erasing the ID code of that keyfob.
This will prevent the keyfob from unautho-
rized use to unlock the vehicle. For informa-
tion regarding the erasing procedure, please
contact an INFINITI dealer.

of a battery, see ªKeyfob battery replace-
mentº in the ª8. Maintenance and do-it-
