3-4Pre-driving checks and adjustments
— The Intelligent Key is waterresistant; however, wetting
may damage the Intelligent
Key. If the Intelligent Key gets
wet, immediately wipe until it
is completely dry.
— Do not bend, drop or strike it against another object.
— If the outside temperature is below 14°F (-10°C) degrees, the
battery of the Intelligent Key

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 Intel-
ligent Key. This will prevent the
Intelligent Key from unauthorized
use to unlock the vehicle. For
information regarding the eras-
ing procedure, it is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer.

outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The key fob can operate at a distance of
approximately 33 ft (10 m) from the
vehicle. (The effective distance depends
upon the conditions around the vehicle.)
As many as 4 key fobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information concerning

operational range.
. When the doors are open or not
closed securely.

WARNING
The remote keyless entry key fob
transmits radio waves when the
buttons are pushed. The FAA advises
that the radio waves may affect
aircraft navigation and communica-
tion systems. Do not operate the key fob while on an airplane. Make sure
the buttons are not operated unin-
tentionally when the unit is stored
during a flight.
CAUTION
The following conditions or occur-
rences will damage the key fob.
.
Do not allow the key fob to
become wet.

low 14°F (-10°C) degrees, the bat-
tery of key fob may not function
properly.
. Do not place the key fob for an
extended period in an area where
temperatures exceed 140°F
(60°C).
If a key fob is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of
that key fob. This will prevent the key
fob from unauthorized use to unlock
the vehicle. For information regard-
ing the erasing procedure, it is re-
commended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

3-12Pre-driving checks and adjustments
.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 2 years.
If the battery is discharged, replace it with
a new one.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously
receiving radio waves, if the key is left
near equipment which transmits strong
radio waves, such as signals from a TV
and personal computer, the battery life
may become shorter.
For information regarding replacement of
a battery, see “Intelligent Key battery
replacement” (P.8-23).
As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For
information about the purchase and use
of additional Intelligent Keys, it is recom-
mended that you contact a NISSAN deal-
er.

nents, to come into contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.

sharply against another object.
. Do not change or modify the
Intelligent Key.
. Wetting may damage the Intelli-
gent Key. If the Intelligent Key

it is completely dry.
. If the outside temperature is be-
low 14°F (−10°C) degrees, the bat-
tery of the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
