The HomeLink

姞 Universal Transceiver provides a

convenient way to consolidate the functions of up
to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.

HomeLink

姞 Universal Transceiver:

● Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)

devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and se-
curity systems.

● Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No

separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink

姞 will retain all program-

ming.

When the HomeLink

姞 Universal Trans-

ceiver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (Example: new vehicle purchases).
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink

姞 Universal Transceiver buttons

should be erased for security purposes. For
additional information, refer to “Program-
ming HomeLink

姞” later in this section.

WARNING

● Do not use the HomeLink姞 Universal

Transceiver

with

any

garage

door

opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came

effective

for

opener

models

manufactured after April 1, 1982). A ga-
rage 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

in-

creases 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

姞

Universal Transceiver. Do not breathe
exhaust gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon
monoxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.

PROGRAMMING HOMELINK

姞 FOR

CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND
GATE OPENERS

Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit-
ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after several
seconds of transmission – which may not be long
enough for HomeLink

姞 to pick up the signal

during training. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to “tim-
eout” in the same manner.

If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
training a gate operator or garage door opener
by using the “Training” procedures, replace
“Programming HomeLink

姞” Step 2 with the fol-

lowing:

NOTE:

When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible damage to the
garage door opener components.

1. See “Programing HomeLink

姞” step 1 earlier

in this section.

2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and

hold the desired HomeLink

姞 button and the

hand-held transmitter button. During train-
ing, your hand-held transmitter may auto-
matically stop transmitting. Continue to

press and hold the desired HomeLink

姞 but-

ton while you press and re-press (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter every two sec-
onds until the frequency signal has been
learned. The HomeLink

姞 indicator light will

flash slowly and then rapidly after several
seconds upon successful training. DO NOT
release until the HomeLink

姞 indicator light

flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapid flashing indi-
cates successful training.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink

姞”

step 3 to complete.
If the device was unplugged during the pro-
gramming procedure, remember to plug it
back in when programming is completed.

OPERATING THE HOMELINK

姞

The HomeLink

姞 Universal Transceiver, after it is

programmed, can be used to activate the pro-
grammed device. To operate, simply press and
release the appropriate programmed HomeLink

姞

Universal Transceiver button. The amber indica-
tor light will illuminate while the signal is being
transmitted.

For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS

If the HomeLink

姞 does not quickly learn the hand-

held transmitter information:

● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries

with new batteries.

● position the hand-held transmitter with its

battery

area

facing

away

from

the

HomeLink

姞 surface.

● press and hold both the HomeLink姞 and

NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY

姞

Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelligent
Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s Intel-
ligent Key system components and NISSAN Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System components.

Never leave these keys in the vehicle.

As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered
and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be
registered by a NISSAN dealer prior to use with

the Intelligent Key system and NISSAN Vehicle
Immobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the
registration process requires erasing all memory
in the Intelligent Key components when register-
ing new keys, be sure to take all Intelligent Keys
that you have to the NISSAN dealer.

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, see a NISSAN dealer for duplicates by
using the key number. NISSAN does not record
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, your NISSAN dealer
can duplicate it.

CAUTION

Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the Intelligent
Key:

● Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which

contains

electrical

components,

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

● Do not drop the Intelligent Key.

● Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply

against another object.

● Do not change or modify the Intelligent

Key.

● Wetting may damage the Intelligent

Key. If the Intelligent Key gets wet, im-
mediately wipe until it is completely dry.

● Do not place the Intelligent Key for an

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

● Do not attach the Intelligent Key with a

key holder that contains a magnet.

● Do not place the Intelligent Key near

equipment that produces a magnetic
field, such as a TV, audio equipment and

WARNING

● Radio waves could adversely affect elec-

tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.

● The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves

when the buttons are pressed. The FAA
advises the radio waves may affect air-
craft navigation and communication sys-
tems. Do not operate the Intelligent Key
while on an airplane. Make sure the but-
tons are not operated unintentionally
when the unit is stored for a flight.

The Intelligent Key system can operate all the
door locks using the remote controller function or
pushing the request switch on the vehicle without
taking the key out from a pocket or purse. The
operating environment and/or conditions may af-
fect the Intelligent Key system operation.

Be sure to read the following before using the

CAUTION

● Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with

you when operating the vehicle.

● Never leave the Intelligent Key in the

vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key is always communicating with
the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Intel-
ligent Key system transmits weak radio waves.
Environmental conditions may interfere with the
operation of the Intelligent Key system under the
following operating conditions:

● When operating near a location where

strong radio waves are transmitted, such as
a TV tower, power station and broadcasting
station.

● When in possession of wireless equipment,

such as a cellular telephone, transceiver,
and CB radio.

● When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or

covered by metallic materials.

● When any type of radio wave remote control

is used nearby.

● When the Intelligent Key is placed near an

electric appliance such as a personal com-
puter.

● When the vehicle is parked near a parking

meter.

In such cases, correct the operating conditions
before using the Intelligent Key function or use

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Although the life of the battery varies depending
on the operating conditions, the battery’s life is
approximately 2 years. If the battery is dis-
charged, replace it with a new one.

When the Intelligent Key battery is almost dis-
charged, insert the Intelligent Key into the Intelli-
gent Key port to start the engine. Replace the
discharged battery with a new one as soon as
possible. For additional information, see “Push
Button Ignition Switch” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section.

Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving
radio waves, if the key is left near equipment
which transmits strong radio waves, such as sig-
nals from a TV and personal computer, the bat-
tery life may become shorter.

For information regarding replacement of a bat-
tery, see “Battery replacement” in the “Mainte-
nance and do-it-yourself” section.

As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered

not function.

When the Intelligent Key is within the operating
range, it is possible for anyone, even someone
who does not carry the Intelligent Key, to push the
request switch to lock/unlock the doors.

● Do not push the door handle request switch

with the Intelligent Key held in your hand as
illustrated. The close distance to the door

to have difficulty recognizing that the Intelli-
gent Key is outside the vehicle.

● After locking with the door handle request

switch, verify the doors are securely locked
by testing them.
