radio controls INFINITI G37 2010 Owners Manual

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. PROGRAMMING HOMELINK To program your HomeLink  Transceiver to op-
erate a garage door, gate, or entry door opener,
home or office lighting, you need to be at the
same location as the device. Note: Garage door
openers (manufactured after 1996) have “rolling
code protection”. To program a garage door
opener equipped with “rolling code protection”;
you will need to use a ladder to get up to the
garage door opener motor to be able to access
the “smart or learn” program button.HOMELINK  UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if
so equipped)

The ignition switch is equipped with an anti-
theft steering lock device.
In order for the steering wheel to be locked, it
must be turned about 1/8 of a right or left turn
from the straight up position.
To lock the steering wheel, shift the ignition
switch to the LOCK position. To unlock the steer-
ing wheel, push the ignition switch. If the steer-
ing lock release malfunction indicator appears
on the dot matrix liquid crystal display, push the
push-button ignition switch again while lightly
turning the steering wheel right and left. (See
“DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.)
If the battery of the vehicle is discharged, the
push-button ignition switch cannot be turned
from the LOCK position.
Some indicators and warnings for operation are
displayed on the dot matrix liquid crystal dis-
play between the speedometer and tachometer.
(See “DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” in
the “2. Instruments and controls” section.)
Automatic transmission models The ignition lock is designed so that the ignition
switch position cannot be switched to LOCK
