WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air bags:
. The front seat-mounted side-impact air
bags and roof-mounted curtain air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of
a frontal impact, rear impact, rollover or
lower severity side collision. Always
wear your seat belts to help reduce the
risk or severity of injury in various kinds
of accidents. .
The seat belts, side air bags and curtain
air bags are most effective when you are
sitting well back and upright in the seat.
The side air bag and curtain air bag
inflate with great force. Do not allow
anyone to place their hand, leg or face
near the side air bag on the side of the
seatback of the front seat or near the
side roof rails. Do not allow anyone
sitting in the front seats or rear outboard
seats to extend their hand out of the
window or lean against the door. Some
examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the previous illustrations.
. When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front seat.
If the supplemental side air bag inflates,
you may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who should
always be properly restrained. Some
examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the illustrations.
. Do not use seat covers on the front
seatbacks. They may interfere with
supplemental side air bag inflation.

HomeLink®Universal Transceiver provides
a convenient way to consolidate the func-
tions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver:
. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door
locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle ’s 12-volt
battery. No separate batteries are
required. If the vehicle ’s 12-volt battery

programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures

sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.

ming HomeLink

. Do not use HomeLink®Universal Trans-
ceiver with any garage door opener that
lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by federal safety standards.

cannot detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then automati-
cally stop and reverse, does not meet
current federal safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without these fea-
tures 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 INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
TMSystem should be turned off
while programming HomeLink®Univer-
sal Transceiver.
