Intelligent Key

Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelligent Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s Intelligent Key system components and INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System components. As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be registered by an INFINITI retailer prior to use with the Intelligent Key system and INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System of your vehicle. 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 the INFINITI retailer.
CAUTION
► Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when driving. The Intelligent Key is a
precision device with a built-in transmitter.
To avoid damaging it, please note
the following.
— The Intelligent Key is water resistant;
however, wetting may damage
the Intelligent 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
148F (−108C), the battery of the
Intelligent Key may not function
properly.
— Do not place the Intelligent Key for
an extended period in a place where
temperatures exceed 1408F (608C).
— Do not change or modify the Intelligent
Key.
— Do not use a magnet key holder.
— Do not place the Intelligent Key near
an electric appliance such as a
television set or 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 Intelligent Key. This will prevent
the Intelligent Key from unauthorized
use to unlock the vehicle. For information
regarding the erasing procedure,
please contact an INFINITI retailer.
