doors lock. The hazard lights flash twice
and the horn beeps once to indicate all
doors are locked.
• When the
button is pressed with all
doors locked, the hazard lights flash twice
and the horn beeps once as a reminder
that the doors are already locked.
The horn may or may not beep. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Silencing the

onds. If, during the 30-second pre-arm
time period, the driver's door is unlocked
by the key or the key fob or the ignition
switch is placed in ACC or ON position,
the system will not arm.
• If the key is turned slowly when locking
the driver's door, the system may not

beyond the vertical position toward
the unlock position the system may be
disarmed when the key is removed. If
the indicator light fails to glow for a
period of time, unlock the door once
and lock it again.

gers are in the vehicle, the system will
arm with all doors closed and locked
with the ignition switch placed in the
OFF position.

WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influ-
ences before use.
• The Intelligent Key transmits radio
waves when the buttons are pressed.
The FAA advises the radio waves may
affect aircraf t navigation and com-
munication systems. Do not operate
the Intelligent Key while on an air-
plane. Make sure the buttons are not
operated unintentionally when the
unit is stored for a flight.
The Intelligent Key can operate all the door
locks using the remote control function. The
operating environment and/or conditions
may affect the Intelligent Key operation.
Be sure to read the following before using
the Intelligent Key.
CAUTION
• Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key
with you when operating the vehicle.
• Never leave the Intelligent Key in the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle. The Intelligent Key is always communicat-
ing with the vehicle as it receives radio
waves. The Intelligent Key transmits weak
radio waves. Environmental conditions
may interfere with the operation of the In-
telligent Key under the following operating
conditions:
• When operating near a location where
strong radio waves are transmitted, such
as a TV tower, power station and broad-
casting station.
• When in possession of wireless equip- ment, such as a cellular telephone, trans-
ceiver, or a CB radio.
• When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials.
• When any type of radio wave remote con- trol is used nearby.
• When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric appliance such as a personal
computer.
• When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter.
In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key func-
tion or use the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the battery’s life is approximately two years. If
the battery is discharged, replace it with a
new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is low, the
NISSAN Intelligent Key® warning light will
blink af ter the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is lef t near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and per-
sonal computer, the battery life may be-
come shorter.
When the battery is discharged, firmly apply
the foot brake and touch the ignition switch
with the Intelligent Key. Then push the igni-
tion switch while depressing the brake pedal
within 10 seconds af ter the chime sound. For
additional information, refer to “Push-button
ignition switch” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
For additional information, refer to “Battery
replacement” in the “Do-it-yourself ” section
of this manual.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For
information about the purchase and use of
additional Intelligent Keys, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

TILT OPERATION
Pull the lock lever toward the driver and
hold it to adjust the steering wheel up or
down to the desired position.
Release the lock lever to lock the steering
wheel in place.
WARNING
• Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an
accident. •
Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver’s air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious
or fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.
