Nissan Murano (2018 year). Instruction

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

WARNING

∙ Always have the doors locked while

driving. 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 unintention-
ally 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
vehicle 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.

WARNING

∙ Radio waves could adversely affect

electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the

electric

medical

equipment

manufacturer for the possible influ-
ences before use.

∙ The Intelligent Key transmits radio

waves when the buttons are pressed.
The FAA advises the radio waves may
affect aircraft navigation and com-
munication systems. Do not operate
the Intelligent Key while on an air-
plane. Make sure the buttons are not
operated unintentionally when the
unit is stored for a flight.

∙ Never leave the Intelligent Key in the

vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the door locks using the remote control
function or pushing the request switch on
the vehicle without taking the key out from
a pocket or purse. The operating environ-
ment and/or conditions may affect the In-
telligent Key system operation.

Be sure to read the following before using
the Intelligent Key system.

CAUTION

Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when operating the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key is capable of receiving
and transmitting radio waves. The Intelli-
gent Key system transmits weak radio
waves from various distances. Environ-
mental conditions may interfere with the
operation of the Intelligent Key system un-
der 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 equip-

ment, such as a cellular telephone,
transceiver or a 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
computer.

∙ When the vehicle is parked near a park-

ing meter.

In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key func-
tion or use the mechanical key.

Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the
battery’s life is approximately two years. If
the battery is discharged, replace it with a
new one.

When the Intelligent Key battery is low, the
“Key Battery Low” indicator illuminates in
the vehicle information display. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Vehicle infor-
mation display” in the “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual.

Since the Intelligent Key is capable of re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and per-
sonal computer, the battery life may be-
come shorter.

For additional information, refer to “Battery
replacement” in the “Do-it-yourself ” section
of this manual.

As many as four 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 visit a NISSAN dealer.
