INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM ● 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 computer. ● When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter. In such cases, correct the operating conditions before using the Intelligent Key function or use the mechanical key. Although the life of the battery varies depending on the operating conditions, the battery's life is approximately 2 years. If the battery is discharged, replace it with a new one. When the Intelligent Key battery is low, the Intelligent Key system warning light ( ) will blink green for about 30 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving radio waves, if the key is left near equipment which transmits strong radio waves, such as signals from a TV and personal computer, the battery life may become shorter. For information regarding replacement of a battery, see "Battery" in the "Maintenance and do-ityourself" section. Because the steering wheel is locked electrically, unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch in the LOCK position is impossible when the vehicle battery is completely discharged. Unlocking the steering wheel is impossible even if the Intelligent Key is inserted into the ignition cylinder. Pay special attention that the vehicle battery is not completely discharged. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used with one vehicle. For information about the purchase and use of additional Intelligent Keys, contact a INFINITI dealer.

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.
