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, butnot 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).
Integrated keyfob and key:
•To use the mechanical key, push the release but-
ton located on top of the key. The key will unfold
from its housing until it locks in place.Intelligent 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.
(See “Door locks” later in this section.)
For further details on accessing and using the emer-
gency key, see “Ignition switch (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 thevehicle (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
use of additional remote controllers, contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The integrated keyfob will not function under the fol-
lowing conditions:
•When the distance between the integrated key-
fob and vehicle is more than approximately 5 m
(15 ft).
•When the integrated keyfob battery is
discharged.
•When the key is in the ignition switch.
All doors can be locked or unlocked from the out-
side by pressing the “LOCK”
or “UNLOCK”button on the integrated keyfob.
For Super Lock system models only:
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.
WARNING
Only operate the integrated keyfob lock button in
full and clear view of the vehicle to prevent any-
body being trapped inside the vehicle.CAUTION
•When locking the doors using the integrated
keyfob, be sure not to leave the key in the
vehicle.
•Always remove the ignition key or Intelligent
Key, close all windows before operating the
keyfob door lock system.
•Ensure that the driver’s door is securely
closed before operating the integrated keyfob
door lock system for correct operation of the
system.
•Do not allow the integrated keyfob, which
contains electrical components, to come into
contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.
•Do not drop the integrated keyfob.
•Do not strike the integrated keyfob sharply
against another object.
•Do not place the integrated keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where temperatures
exceed 60°C (140°F).
If a integrated keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN rec-
ommends erasing the ID code of that integrated
keyfob from the vehicle. This may prevent the unau-
thorised use of the integrated keyfob to unlock the
vehicle. For information regarding the erasing pro-
cedure, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.

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.
For further details on the Super Lock system see
“Door locks” later in this section.

closed.
Push the “LOCK” button
on the integrated key-
fob.
– All the doors lock.
– The direction indicators flash once.
If the “LOCK” button
is pushed with all the doors
locked, the direction indicators will flash once to
remind you that the doors are already locked.

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 keyfob/Intelligent Key battery
replacement” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section for keyfob battery replace-
ment instructions and the required battery type.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-5

•The locking/unlocking system has been used
continuously.
An anti lock-abuse system prevents the lock mo-
tors from overheating and disables 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 [NO KEY Detected] warning, [Key battery
low] indicator, [Key ID Incorrect] warning or In-
telligent Key system warning in “Vehicle informa-
tion display” in the “2. Instruments and controls”
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.

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.The operating range is within 80 cm (31.50 in) from
each request button
j1.
If the Intelligent Key is too close to the door glass,
door handle or rear bumper, the request switches

range, it is possible for anyone, even someone who
does not carry the Intelligent Key, to push the re-
quest button to lock/unlock the doors including the
back door.
