• The estimated time may be recalculateddepending on the actual electrical power
af ter the charge cable is connected. Al-
though the estimated time may be differ-
ent from the time that was displayed
when the power switch was placed in the
OFF position, this is not a malfunction.
• When the charging timer is set to OFF, the estimated end time to charge the Li-ion
battery to a full level in the case of per-
forming the immediate charge. The end
time is calculated based on the electrical
power selected in the “Charge Time
Screen”.
• When the Li-ion battery was fully charged, the charging time will be displayed as “--
:--”.

• The charging time is displayed by the 10 minutes. If the estimated charging time is
longer than 24 hours, “Over 24h” is dis-
played.
• When the charging is set to start imme- diately af ter connecting the charge con-
nector to the vehicle, the start time is
displayed as “Charge Now”.
• While being charged, the time when the charging has actually started is displayed
as the start time. The end time is dis-
played according to the estimated
charging time that was calculated based
on the electrical power being supplied.
• For models with Li-ion battery warmer, the charging system calculates the elec-
trical power used by the battery warmer
when the Li-ion battery temperature is
low, and longer charging time will be dis-
played.

able electrical power (supplied to the
charger), see the Estimated Charge Time
display. Refer to “Meters and gauges” in
the “Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.NOTE:
• The displayed end time of charging is an estimation. The Li-ion battery may
not be charged to a full level by the
estimated end time.
• If the charging timer and the Climate Ctrl. timer are set to operate at the
same time, longer charging time will be
displayed or the Li-ion battery may not
be charged to a full level at the sched-
uled end time.
IMMEDIATE CHARGE

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 that the radio waves
may affect aircraf t navigation and
communication systems. Do not op-
erate the Intelligent Key while on an
airplane. Make sure the buttons are
not operated unintentionally when
the unit is stored during a flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the door and the rear hatch locks by using
the remote control function or pushing the
request switch on the vehicle without tak-
ing the key out from a pocket or purse. The
operating environment and/or conditions
may affect the Intelligent Key system op-
eration.
Be sure to read the following items before
using the Intelligent Key system.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 because it receives ra-
dio waves. The Intelligent Key system
transmits weak radio waves. Environmen-
tal conditions may interfere with the op-
eration 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 broad-
casting station.
• When in possession of wireless equip- ment, such as a cellular phone, 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 almost
discharged, firmly apply the foot brake and
touch the power switch with the Intelligent
Key. Then push the power switch while de-
pressing the brake pedal within 10 seconds
af ter the chime sound.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is lef t near
equipment that transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV or per-
sonal computer, the battery life may be-
come shorter.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN
Intelligent Key® battery replacement” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself ” section
of this manual.
Pay special attention that the vehicle bat-
tery is not completely discharged.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For

CAUTION
• Do not allow the Intelligent Key,
which contains electrical compo-
nents, to come into contact with wa-
ter or salt water. This could affect the
system function.
• Do not drop the Intelligent Key.
• Do not strike the Intelligent Key
sharply against another object.
• Do not change or modif y the Intelli-
gent Key. •
Wetting may damage the Intelligent
Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet,
immediately wipe until it is com-
pletely dry.
• Do not place the Intelligent Key for an
extended period in an area where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C).
• Do not attach the Intelligent Key with
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 computers or cellular
phone.
The remote keyless entry function can op-
erate all door locks using the remote key-
less entry function of the Intelligent Key.
The remote keyless entry function can op-
erate at a distance of approximately 33 f t
(10 m) from the vehicle. The operating dis-
tance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.
The remote keyless entry function will not
operate:
• When the Intelligent Key is not within the operational range.
• When the Intelligent Key battery is dis- charged.
