The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver pro-
vides 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 de-

vices 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 ve-
hicle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all pro-
gramming.

When the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures (Ex-
ample: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For additional
information,

refer

WARNING

∙ Do not use the HomeLink® Universal

Transceiver with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became effec-
tive for opener models manufactured
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 features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.

∙ During the programming procedure 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® Uni-
versal Transceiver. Do not breathe ex-
haust gases; they contain colorless and
odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon mon-
oxide is dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.

PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
AND GATE OPENERS

Canadian radio-frequency laws require trans-
mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after sev-
eral seconds of transmission – which may not
be long enough for HomeLink® to pick up the
signal during training. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“timeout” in the same manner.

During training, your hand-held trans-
mitter may automatically stop transmit-
ting. Continue to press and hold the de-
sired HomeLink® button while you press
and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every 2 seconds until the fre-
quency signal has been learned. The
HomeLink® indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly after several sec-
onds upon successful training. DO NOT
release until the HomeLink® indicator
light flashes slowly and then rapidly.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly,

both buttons may be released. The rapid
flashing indicates successful training.
Proceed

with

INFINITI INTELLIGENT KEY

Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intel-
ligent Keys which are registered to your vehi-
cle’s Intelligent Key System components and
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System compo-
nents.

Never leave the keys in the vehicle.

As many as four Intelligent Keys can be reg-
istered and used with one vehicle. The new
keys must be registered prior to use with the
Intelligent Key System and INFINITI Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. Since the registration process
requires erasing all memory in the Intelligent
Key components when registering new keys,
be sure to take all Intelligent Keys that you
have to an INFINITI retailer.

A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), not in the vehicle.

If you lose your keys, it is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for duplicates by
using the key number. INFINITI does not re-
cord key numbers so it is very important to
keep track of your key number plate.

A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, it can be
duplicated without knowing the key number.

CAUTION

∙ Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with

you when driving. The Intelligent Key is a
precision device with a built-in transmit-
ter. To avoid damaging it, please note the
following:

– The Intelligent Key is water resistant;

however, wetting may damage the In-
telligent 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), the battery of the Intel-
ligent Key may not function properly.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

– Do not place the Intelligent Key for an

extended period in a place where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).

– Do not change or modify the Intelli-

gent Key.

– Do not use a magnet key holder.

– Do not place the Intelligent Key near

an electric appliance such as a televi-
sion set or a personal computer.

– Do not allow the Intelligent Key to

come into contact with 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, INFINITI
recommends erasing the ID code of that In-
telligent Key from the vehicle. This may pre-
vent the unauthorized use of the Intelligent
Key to operate the vehicle. For information
regarding the erasing procedure, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer.

Mechanical key

The Intelligent Key contains the mechanical
key.

To remove the mechanical key, release the
lock knob on 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
driver’s door and glove box if they are
equipped with a key cylinder.

CAUTION

Always carry the mechanical key installed
in the Intelligent Key slot.

For additional information, refer to “Doors” in
this section and “Storage” in the “Instruments
and controls” section of this manual.

Valet hand-off

When you have to leave a key with a valet,
give them the Intelligent Key itself and keep
the mechanical key with you to protect your
belongings.

To prevent the glove box from being opened
during valet hand-off, follow the procedure
below.

1. Remove the mechanical key from the In-

telligent Key.

2. Lock the glove box with the mechanical

key.

3. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet and

INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS

You can only drive your vehicle using the
Intelligent Keys which are registered to the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System compo-
nents in your vehicle.

The mechanical key can be used for all the
locks.

Never leave the keys in the vehicle.

Additional or replacement keys:

If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys. Your existing
key can be duplicated without knowing the
key number. As many as four INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System keys can be used
with one vehicle. You should bring all
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System keys
that you have to the INFINITI retailer for
registration. This is because the registration
process will erase the memory of all key
codes previously registered into the INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System. After the regis-
tration process, these components will only
recognize keys coded into the INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System during registration.

Any key that is not given to the retailer at the
time of registration will no longer be able to
start your vehicle.

CAUTION

Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt wa-
ter. This could affect system function.

When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the outside door handles. The
doors must be unlocked to open the doors.

WARNING

∙ Always have the doors locked while driv-

ing. Along with the use of seat belts, this
provides greater safety in the event of an
accident by helping to prevent persons
from being thrown from the vehicle. This
also helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors, and
will help keep out intruders.

∙ Before opening any door, always look for

and avoid oncoming traffic.

∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows and/or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others and/or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of in-
jury or death to people and/or pets.
