3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments
A key number plate is supplied with your
keys. Record the key number and keep it in a
safe place (such as your wallet), not in the
vehicle. If you lose your keys, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
duplicates by using the key number. INFINITI
does not record any key numbers so it is very
important to keep track of your key number
plate.
A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, it can
be duplicated without knowing the key
number.

INTELLIGENT KEY
Your vehicle can only be driven with the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to your
vehicle’s Intelligent Key system components
and INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
components. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys
can be registered and used with one vehicle.
The new keys must be registered by an
INFINITI retailer prior to use with the
Intelligent Key system and INFINITI Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the
registration process requires erasing all
memory in the Intelligent Key components
when registering new keys, be sure to take
all Intelligent Keys that you have to the
INFINITI retailer.
CAUTION
. Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key
with you when driving. The Intelli-
gent Key is a precision device with a
built-in transmitter. To avoid dama-
ging it, please note the following.
— The Intelligent Key is water re- sistant; however, wetting may
