ignition NISSAN ROGUE 2023 Workshop Manual

CARGO LIGHT
The cargo lights illuminate when the
liftgate is opened. When the liftgate is
closed, the lights will turn off.
The light will also turn off after a period
of time when the light remains illumi-
nated after the ignition switch has been
pushed to the OFF position to prevent
the battery from becoming discharged.
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
provides a convenient way to consolidate
the functions of up to three individual
hand-held transmitters into one built-in
device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
.Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink® will retain
all programming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the origi-
nal transmitter for future programming
procedures (Example: new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased
for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” (P.2-84).
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver with any gar-
age door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as re-
quired by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became
effective for opener models man-
ufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then
automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
. During the programming proce-
dure your garage door or security
gate will open and close (if the
transmitter is within range). Make
sure that people or objects are
clear of the garage door, gate,
etc. that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be
turned off while programming
the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver. Do not breathe exhaust
gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or
death.

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
the purchase and use of additional key
fobs, contact a NISSAN dealer.
The key fob will not function:

WARNING
To avoid risk of injury or death, do
not use the remote engine start
function when the vehicle is in an
enclosed area such as a garage.
JVP0446X
The remote engine startbutton is on
the Intelligent Key if the vehicle has
remote engine start function. This func-
tion allows the engine to start from
outside the vehicle.
Some systems, such as the air conditioner
system, will turn on during a remote
engine start, if the system was on the
last time the ignition switch was turned
off.
Laws in some local communities may
restrict the use of remote engine starters.
For example, some laws require a person
using remote engine start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for
any requirements. Other conditions may affect the remote
engine start function. See “Conditions the
remote engine start will not work” (P.3-
24).
Other conditions can affect the perfor-
mance of the Intelligent Key transmitter.
See “Intelligent Key system” (P.3-11) for
additional information.
REMOTE ENGINE START OPERATING
RANGE
The remote engine start function can
only be used when the Intelligent Key is
within the specified operating range from
the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intelli-
gent Key may not function properly.
The remote engine start operating range
is approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the
vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE ENGINE
To use the remote start function to start
the engine, perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Push the LOCK
