INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will
not allow the engine to start without the use
of a registered INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer
System key.
If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key, an automated toll road device or auto-
matic payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following procedures:1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po- sition for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the de- vice (which may have caused the inter-
ference) separate from the registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.
If the no start condition reoccurs, INFINITI rec-
ommends placing the registered INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System key on a separate key
ring to avoid interference from other devices.

LUGGAGE HOOKS
When securing items using luggage hooks
located on the side finisher do not apply a
load over more than 6.5 lbs. (29 N) to a single
hook.
The luggage hooks that are located on the
floor should have loads less than 110 lbs.
(490 N) to a single hook.
The luggage hooks can be used to secure
cargo with ropes or other types of straps.
WARNING
∙ Properly secure all cargo with ropes orstraps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
∙ Use suitable ropes and hooks to secure cargo.
∙ Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area. It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area inside of a vehicle. In a colli-
sion, people riding in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured or killed.
∙ Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
∙ The child restraint top tether strap may be damaged by contact with items in the
cargo area. Secure any items in the cargo
area. Your child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the top tether
strap is damaged.
∙ Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
ROOF RACK (if so equipped)
WARNING
∙ Always install the crossbars onto theroof side rails before loading cargo of any
kind. Loading cargo directly onto the
roof side rails or the vehicle’s roof may
cause vehicle damage.
∙ Roof rack cross bars should be evenly distributed.
∙ Do not exceed maximum roof rack cross- bars load capacity and always distribute
the load uniformly.
LIC3684LIC4202
2-62Instruments and controls

∙ Heavy loading of the crossbars has thepotential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
∙ Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, un-
secured cargo could cause personal
injury.
∙ Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is loaded at or near the cargo carrying ca-
pacity, especially if the significant por-
tion of that load is carried on the
crossbars.
CAUTION
∙ Use care when placing or removing itemsfrom the roof rack. If you cannot com-
fortably lift the items onto the roof rack
from the ground, use a ladder or a stool.
Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails
A. CrossbarsBmust be installed be-
fore applying load/cargo/luggage to the
roof of the vehicle. Genuine NISSAN/INFINITI accessory cross-
bars may be available through a
NISSAN/INFINITI dealer/retailer. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a
NISSAN/INFINITI dealer/retailer for addi-
tional information.
The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 165 lbs. (74 kg.), however do not ex-
ceed the crossbars load capacity.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or
its Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front
and rear).
For additional information regarding GVWR
and GAWR, refer to:
∙ F.M.V.S.S. or C.M.V.S.S. certification la- bel (located on the driver’s door pillar).
POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
∙ Make sure that all passengers have theirhands, etc., inside the vehicle while it is in
motion and before closing the windows.
Use the window lock switch to prevent
unexpected use of the power windows.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave children,
people who require the assistance of oth-
ers or pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people and
pets.
The power windows operate when the igni-
tion switch is placed in the ON position or for
a period of time after the ignition switch is
placed in the OFF position. If the driver’s or
passenger’s door is opened during this period
of time, the power to the windows is can-
celed.

CAUTION
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could result in
a discharged battery.The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver pro-
vides 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 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 ve-
hicle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all pro-
gramming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures (Ex-
ample: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” in this section.
WARNING
∙ Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became effec-
tive 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 stan-
dards. Using a garage door opener with-
out these features increases the risk of
serious injury or death.
∙ During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will open
and close (if the transmitter is within
range). Make sure that people or objects
are clear of the garage door, gate, etc.,
that you are programming.
∙ Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver. Do not breathe ex-
haust gases; they contain colorless and
odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon mon-
oxide is dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.

When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the inside or outside door
handles. The doors must be unlocked to open
the doors.
WARNING
∙ 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.
∙ Before opening any door, always look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave children,
people who require the assistance of oth-
ers or pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people and
pets.
LOCKING WITH KEY
To lock the door using the mechanical key,
turn the key toward the front of the vehicle
1. This will only lock the corresponding door
