the desired HomeLink® button while you
press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every two seconds until the fre-
quency signal has been learned. The
HomeLink® indicator light will flash slowly
and then rapidly after several seconds upon
successful training. DO NOT release until the
HomeLink® indicator light flashes slowly and
then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released. The
rapid flashing indicates successful training.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®” step 3
to complete.
If the device was unplugged during the program-
ming procedure, remember to plug it back in
when programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK®
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, after it is
programmed, can be used to activate the pro-
grammed device. To operate, simply press and
release the appropriate programmed
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver button. The
amber indicator light will illuminate while the sig-
nal is being transmitted. For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If HomeLink® does not quickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information, perform the follow-
ing steps.
• Replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
• Position the hand-held transmitter with its bat- tery area facing away from the HomeLink®
surface.
• Push and hold both the HomeLink® and hand- held transmitter buttons without interruption.
• Position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (2 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface.
Hold the transmitter in that position for up to 15
seconds. If HomeLink® is not programmed
within that time, try holding the transmitter in
another position while keeping the indicator
light in view at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties,
please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs
Department. The phone numbers are located in
the Foreword of this Owner’s Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the programmed
information from both buttons. Individual buttons
cannot be cleared. However, individual buttons

tion, refer to “Reprogramming a single
HomeLink® button” in this section.
To clear all programming:
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons until the indicator light begins to flash
in approximately 10 seconds. Do not hold for
longer than 20 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.
HomeLink® is now in the programming mode
and can be programmed at any time beginning
with “Programming HomeLink®” - Step 1.

• Do not place the Intelligent Key nearan electric appliance such as a televi-
sion set, personal computer or cellular
phone.
• Do not allow the Intelligent Key to come into contact with water or salt
water, and do not wash it in a washing
machine. This could affect the system
function.
If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen,
NISSAN recommends erasing the ID
code of that Intelligent Key. This will pre-
vent the Intelligent Key from unauthor-
ized use to unlock the vehicle. For infor-
mation regarding the erasing procedure,
contact a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Mechanical key
To remove the mechanical key, release the lock
knob at the back of the Intelligent Key.
To install the mechanical key, firmly insert it into
the Intelligent Key until the lock knob returns to
the lock position.
Use the mechanical key to lock or unlock the
doors. For additional information, refer to “Doors”
in this section.
CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key in-
stalled in the Intelligent Key.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS
You can only drive your vehicle using the master
keys which are registered to the NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System components in your vehicle.
These keys have a transponder chip in the key
head.
The master key can be used for all the locks.
To protect belongings when you leave a key with
someone, give them the Intelligent Key only, not
the mechanical key.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys. A NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer can duplicate your existing key. As
many as four NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer Sys-
tem keys can be used with one vehicle. You
should bring all NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer Sys-
tem keys that you have to the NISSAN certified
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-3

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 communicating with
the vehicle because it receives radio waves. The
Intelligent Key system transmits weak radio
waves. Environmental conditions may interfere
with the operation of the Intelligent Key system
under the following operating conditions.
• When operating near a location where strong radio waves are transmitted, such as a TV tower,
power station or broadcasting station.
• When in possession of wireless equipment, such as a cellular phone, transceiver or a CB
radio.
• When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials.
• When any type of radio wave remote control is used nearby.
• When the Intelligent Key is placed near an elec- tric appliance such as a personal computer.
• When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter. In such cases, correct the operating conditions
before using the Intelligent Key function or use
the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending
on the operating conditions, the battery’s life is
approximately two years. If the battery is dis-
charged, replace it with a new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost dis-
charged, firmly apply the foot brake and touch the
power switch with the Intelligent Key. Then push
the power switch while depressing the brake
pedal within 10 seconds after the chime sound.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving
radio waves, if the key is left near equipment that
transmits strong radio waves, such as signals
from a TV or personal computer, the battery life
may become shorter.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN In-
telligent Key® battery replacement” in the “Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section of this
manual.
Pay special attention that the vehicle battery is
not completely discharged.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be regis-
tered and used with one vehicle. For information
about the purchase and use of additional Intelli- gent Keys, contact a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer.
CAUTION
• Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which contains electrical components, to
come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect the functioning
of the system.
• Do not drop the Intelligent Key.
• Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply against another object.
• Do not change or modify the Intelligent Key.
• The Intelligent Key may be damaged if it gets wet. If the Intelligent Key gets
wet, immediately wipe until it is com-
pletely dry.
• If the outside temperature is below 14°F (−10°C) , the battery of the Intelli-
gent key may not function properly.
• Do not place the Intelligent Key for an extended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C) .
• Do not attach the Intelligent Key to a key holder that contains a magnet.
• Do not place the Intelligent Key near equipment that produces a magnetic
field, such as a TV, audio equipment,
personal computer or cellular phone.
