WARNING:
. Radio waves couldadversely affectelectric
medical equipment. Thosewhouseapace-
maker should contact theelectric medical
equipment manufacturer forthe possible
influences beforeuse.
. The Intelligent Keytransmits radiowaves
when thebuttons arepushed. Theradio
waves mayaffect aircraft navigation and
communication systems.Donot operate the
Intelligent Keywhile onanairplane. Make
sure thebuttons arenot operated uninten-
tionally whentheunit isstored during a
flight.
The Intelligent Key system canoperate allthe door
(including theback door) locksusing theremote
controller functionorpushing therequest switchon
the vehicle without takingthekey outfrom apocket or
purse. Theoperating environment and/orconditions
may affect theIntelligent Key system operation. Be
sure toread thefollowing beforeusingthe
Intelligent Key system.
CAUTION:
. Besure tocarry theIntelligent Keywith you
when operating thevehicle.
. Never leavetheIntelligent Keyinthe vehicle
when youleave thevehicle.
The Intelligent Key isalways communicating withthe
vehicle asitreceives radiowaves. TheIntelligent Key
system transmits weakradiowaves. Environmental
conditions mayinterfere withtheoperation ofthe
Intelligent Key system underthefollowing operating
conditions.
. When operating nearalocation wherestrong
radio waves aretransmitted, suchasaTV tower,
power station andbroadcasting station.
. When inpossession ofwireless equipment, such
as acellular telephone, transceiver, andCBradio.
. When theIntelligent Key isin contact withor
covered bymetallic materials.
. When anytype ofradio wave remote controlis
used nearby .
. When theIntelligent Key isplaced nearanelectric
appliance suchasapersonal computer.
. When thevehicle isparked nearaparking meter.
In such cases, correct theoperating conditions before
using theIntelligent Key function oruse themechanical
key .
Although thelifeofthe battery variesdepending onthe
operating conditions, thebattery's lifeisapproximately
2 years. Ifthe battery isdischarged, replaceitwith a
new one.
For information regardingreplacement ofabattery ,see
ªIntelligent Key batteryº (P.8-20) . Since
theIntelligent Key iscontinuously receivingradio
waves, ifthe key isleft near equipment whichtransmits
strong radiowaves, suchassignals fromaTV and
personal computer, thebattery lifemay become
shorter.
Because thesteering wheelislocked electrically ,
unlocking thesteering wheelwiththeignition switchin
the ªLOCKº position isimpossible whenthevehicle
battery iscompletely discharged. Payspecial attention
that thevehicle batteryisnot completely discharged.
As many as4Intelligent Keys can beused withone
vehicle. Forinformation aboutthepurchase anduseof
additional IntelligentKeys, contact aNISSAN dealer.
CAUTION:
. Do not allow theIntelligent Key,which
contains electrical components, tocome
into contact withwater orsalt water. This
