WARNINGO Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. You could also
slide under the lap belt and receive se-
rious internal injuries. O For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat and adjust the seat belt properly.
See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº
later in this section. FRONT POWER SEAT ADJUSTMENT
WARNING O Do not adjust the driver's seat while
driving so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
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.
Operating tips O The seat motor has an auto-reset over-
load protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 sec-
onds, then reactivate the switch.
O Do not operate the power seat for a
long period of time when the engine is
off. This will discharge the battery.
See ªAutomatic drive positionerº in the
ª3. Pre-driving checks and adjustmentsº
for automatic seat positioner operation (if
so equipped). SSS0133B

CAUTIONUse the headlights with the engine running
to avoid discharging the vehicle battery.
Autolight system (if so equipped) The autolight system allows the head-

to the OFF position and open any door
then close all the doors.
If the ignition switch is turned off and one
of the doors is opened and this condition
is continued, the headlights remain on for
5 minutes.SIC2228

sulates heat, such as a blanket, cushion,
seat cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may
become overheated.
O 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
heater.
O Any liquid spilled on the heated seat
should be removed immediately with a
dry cloth.
O When cleaning the seat, never use gaso-
line, benzine, thinner, or any similar

vated when a window is closed by auto-
matic operation when the ignition switch
is in the ON position, or for about 45 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position.
Depending on the environment or driving
conditions, the auto reverse function may
be activated if an impact or load similar to
something being caught in the window oc-
curs.
WARNING There are some small distances immediately
before the closed position which cannot be
detected. Make sure that all passengers
have their hands, etc., inside the vehicle be-
fore closing the window. AUTOMATIC ADJUSTING FUNCTION

justing function. When the door is being
opened, the window is automatically low-
ered slightly to avoid contact between the
window and the side roof panel. When the
door is closed, the window is automati-
cally raised slightly.SIC2579

vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-
held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink Universal Transceiver:
O Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
O Is powered by your vehicle's battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle's battery is discharged or
is disconnected, HomeLink will retain
all programming.
Once the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For addi-
tional information, refer to ªProgramming
HomeLink º later in this section.SIC1859

tinue to push and hold the HomeLink
button (note steps 2 through 4 under
ªProgramming HomeLink º) while you
push and re-push (ªcycleº) your hand-
held transmitter every 2 seconds until the
indicator light flashes rapidly (indicating
successful programming).
NOTE:
If programming a garage door opener, etc.,
it is advised to unplug the device during
the ªcyclingº process to prevent possible
damage to the garage door opener compo-
nents.
OPERATING THE HomeLink
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER The HomeLink Universal Transceiver
(once programmed) 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.
PROGRAMMING
TROUBLE-DIAGNOSIS If the HomeLink does not quickly learn
the hand-held transmitter information:
O replace the hand-held transmitter bat-
teries with new batteries. O position the hand-held transmitter
with its battery area facing away from
the HomeLink surface.
O push and hold both the HomeLink
and hand-held transmitter buttons
without interruption.
O position the hand-held transmitter 2
to 5 inches (50 to 127 mm) away from
the HomeLink surface. Hold the
transmitter in that position for up to 15
seconds. If HomeLink is not pro-
grammed within that time, try holding
the transmitter in another position -
keeping the indicator light in view at
all times.
If you continue to have programming diffi-
culties, please contact the INFINITI Con-
sumer Affairs Department. The phone
numbers are located in the Foreword of
this Owner's Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION Individual buttons cannot be cleared,
however to clear all programming, push
and hold the two outside buttons and re-
lease when the indicator light begins to
flash (approximately 20 seconds). REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink
BUTTON To reprogram a HomeLink Universal
Transceiver button, complete the fol-
lowing.
1. Push and hold the desired HomeLink
button. Do not release the button until
step 4 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to
flash slowly (after 20 seconds), posi-
tion the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5
inches (50 to 127 mm) away from the
HomeLink surface.
3. Push and hold the hand-held trans-
mitter button.
4. The HomeLink indicator light will
flash, first slowly and then rapidly.
When the indicator light begins to
flash rapidly, release both buttons.
The HomeLink Universal Transceiver but-
ton has now been reprogrammed. The
new device can be activated by pushing
the HomeLink button that was just pro-
grammed. This procedure will not affect
any other programmed HomeLink but-
tons.
