Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine KEY NUMBER
A key number platej3 is supplied with your key
Record the key number on the “Security Informa-
tion” page at the end of this manual and keep it in a
safe place, but not in the vehicle . The key can only
be duplicated using an original key or the original
key number. The key number is required when you
have lost all of the keys and do not have the original
key to duplicate from. If the key is lost, or you need
extra keys, provide an original key or the key number
to a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
NISSAN does not record key numbers, so it is very
important that you keep a record of your key num-
ber.
NEW KEYS
As many as four NATS keys can be registered to
one vehicle at any one time. New keys must be reg-
istered to the NATS components of your vehicle by
a NISSAN dealer.
When registering a new key at a NISSAN dealer,
you are requested to bring all of your NATS keys
with you. This is necessary because the registration
process will erase and reprogram the memory of
your vehicle’s NATS components.
NOTE
A key number is only required if you have lost all
of your keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be dupli-
cated by a NISSAN dealer.
EMERGENCY/MECHANICAL KEY
(Intelligent Key models)
The emergency key can be used to unlock the driv-
er’s door and start the engine in emergency situa-
tions (e.g. Intelligent Key dead battery).
To use the mechanical key, release the lock knob
located on the side of the Intelligent Key then slide
and remove the cap. Unfold the mechanical key from
its housing until it locks in place.
Use the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
(See “Door locks” later in this section.)
For further details on accessing and using the emer-
gency key, see “Ignition knob (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.
NOTE
For the driver side door, it is normal for the key
not to go all the way into the key cylinder. The remote keyless entry system can operate all
door locks (including the back door) using the inte-
grated keyfob. The integrated keyfob can operate at
a distance of approximately 5 m (15 ft) from the
vehicle (the effective distance depends upon the
conditions around the vehicle and the state of the
keyfob battery).
As many as 5 remote controllers can be used with
one vehicle. For information about the purchase and

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine – The message [Single door unlock] appears inthe vehicle information display.
– Only the driver’s door unlocks.
– The direction indicators flash twice, quickly.
2. Push the “UNLOCK” button
on the integrated
keyfob again.
– All doors unlock.
– The direction indicators flash twice.
Auto-relock:
An auto-relock function will operate 2 minutes after
a full or partial unlock, if no further user action is
taken. The auto-relock will be cancelled if any door
is opened or the key is inserted into the ignition.
KEYFOB OPERATION FAILURE
The keyfob may not work properly if:
The keyfob battery is low. See “Integrated key-
fob/Intelligent Key battery replacement” in the
“8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section for
keyfob battery replacement instructions and the
required battery type.
The locking/unlocking system has been used
continuously. An anti lock-abuse system pre-
vents the lock motors from overheating and dis-
ables the keyfob locking operation for a short
period of time if the system is used continuously.
The door handle is being pulled while the
keyfob is being operated.
The vehicle’s battery is dead. NOTE
See Intelligent Key detection warning, Intelligent
Key low battery warning or Intelligent Key system
fault warning in “Vehicle information display” ear-
lier in this section for more information.
The Intelligent Key system is a convenient keyless
entry system that allows you to operate your vehicle
without using an actual key.
WARNING
Radio waves could adversely affect electric medi-
cal equipment. Those who use a pacemaker
should contact the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influences before
use.
INTELLIGENT KEY OPERATING
RANGE
The Intelligent Key functions can only be used when
the Intelligent Key is within the specified operating
range from the request switch
j1.
When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged or
strong radio waves are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key system’s operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intelligent Key
may not function properly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine SUPER LOCK SYSTEM (RHD models)
WARNING
Super Lock system equipped models:
Failure to follow the precautions below may lead
to hazardous situations. Make sure the Super
Lock system activation is always conducted
safely.
When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the
doors with the integrated keyfob. Doing so
will trap the occupants, since the Super Lock
system prevents the doors from being opened
from the inside of the vehicle.
Only operate the integrated keyfob “LOCK”
button when there is a clear view of the ve-
hicle. This is to prevent anybody from being
trapped inside the vehicle through the Super
Lock system activation.
Pressing the “LOCK” button
on the integrated
keyfob or locking the doors using one of the outside
door lock switches (Intelligent Key models) will acti-
vate the Super Lock system.
When the Super Lock system is active, none of the
doors can be opened from inside the vehicle. This
provides additional security in case of theft or break-
in.
The Super Lock system will be released when all
the doors are unlocked using the integrated keyfob
or an outside door lock switch (Intelligent Key mod-
els).
Emergency situations
If the Super Lock system is activated while you are
inside the vehicle, for example by a traffic accident
or other unexpected circumstances, follow the in-
structions below.
To release the Super Lock system:
– Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to the ON position.
All doors can now be unlocked and opened from
inside the vehicle.
– Remove the key from the ignition switch and un- lock the doors using the integrated keyfob “UN-
LOCK” button
.
All doors can now be opened from inside the
vehicle.
To unlock and open the driver’s door from
inside the vehicle while the Super Lock system
is active:
1. Open or break the driver’s door window.
2. Insert the key into the outside door key cylinder and turn it towards the rear of the vehicle.
3. The driver’s door will unlock and can now be opened from inside the vehicle.
Locking without activating the Super
Lock system
WARNING
Do not leave the key inside the vehicle when leav-
ing the vehicle.
Locking the doors using the door key cylinder or
power door lock switch will not activate the Super
Lock system. See “Power door lock switch” later in
this section for further information.
LOCKING/UNLOCKING WITH THE
KEY (vehicle dead battery)
WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, do not leave the key
inside the vehicle.
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle
and always be sure you have your keys with
you when leaving. If an emergency occurs it
may be more difficult to help them otherwise.
