MULTI-REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM (if so equipped) It is possible to lock/unlock all doors to release the trunk lid and activate the panic alarm by using the remote controller from outside the vehicle. Before locking the doors, make sure the key is not left in the vehicle. The remote controller 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 four remote controllers can be used with one vehicle. For information concerning the purchase and use of additional remote controllers, contact your NISSAN dealer. The multi-remote controller will not function when: ¼ the battery is dead, ¼ the distance between the vehicle and the remote controller is over 33 ft (10 m). The panic alarm will not activate when the key is in the ignition switch. ¼ Do not allow the remote controller to become wet. ¼ Do not drop the remote controller. ¼ Do not strike the remote controller sharply against another object. ¼ Do not place the remote controller for an extended period in an area where temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C). If a multi-remote controller is lost or stolen, NISSAN recommends erasing the ID code of that controller. This will prevent the controller from unauthorized use to unlock the vehicle. For information regarding the erasing procedure, please contact an authorized NISSAN dealer.
