PROGRAMMING HomeLink

FOR

CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND
GATE OPENERS

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

to pick up the signal during

programming. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner.

If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the “Program-
ming HomeLink

” procedures, replace “Pro-

gramming HomeLink

” Step 2 with the

following:

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.

Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously
press and hold the desired HomeLink

button and the hand-held transmitter but-
ton. During programming, your hand-held
transmitter may automatically stop trans-
mitting. Continue to press and hold the
desired HomeLink

button while you press

and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-

mitter every two seconds until the frequency
signal has been learned. The HomeLink

indicator light will flash slowly and then
rapidly after several seconds upon success-
ful programming. DO NOT release until the
HomeLink

indicator light flashes slowly and

then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released. The
rapid flashing indicates successful program-
ming.

Proceed with “Programming HomeLink

”

step 3 to complete.

Remember to plug the device back in when
programming is completed.

OPERATING THE HomeLink

UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER

The HomeLink

Universal Transceiver, after

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

Universal Transceiver

button. The amber indicator light will illumi-
nate while the signal is being transmitted.

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

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
SHOOTING

If the HomeLink

does not quickly learn the

hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter bat-

teries with new batteries.

. position the hand-held transmitter with

its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink

surface.

. press and hold both the HomeLink

and

hand-held transmitter buttons without
interruption.

. position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 in

(26-76 mm) away from the HomeLink

surface. Hold the transmitter in that
position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLink

is not programmed within

that time, try holding the transmitter in
another position - keeping the indicator
light in view at all times.

If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink

buttons, refer to the HomeLink

web site

at: www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION

The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from both buttons.
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. How-
ever, individual buttons can be repro-
grammed, see “Reprogramming a single
HomeLink

button” (P.2-63).

To clear all programming

1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink

buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash in approximately 10 seconds. Do
not hold for longer than 20 seconds.

2. Release both buttons.

HomeLink

is now in the programming mode

and can be programmed at any time begin-
ning with “Programming HomeLink

” - Step

REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink

BUTTON

To reprogram a HomeLink

Universal Trans-

ceiver button, complete the following.

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink

button. Do not release the button.

2. The indicator light will begin to flash

after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink

button, proceed with “Pro-

gramming HomeLink

” - Step 1.

For questions or comments, contact
HomeLink

at: www.homelink.com or 1-

800-355-3515.

The HomeLink

Universal Transceiver but-

ton has now been reprogrammed. The new
device can be activated by pushing the
HomeLink

button that was just pro-

grammed. This procedure will not affect
any other programmed HomeLink

buttons.

IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN

If your vehicle is stolen, you should change
the codes of any non-rolling code device that
has been programmed into HomeLink

Consult the Owner’s Instruction of each device
or call the manufacturer or retailer of those
devices for additional information.

When your vehicle is recovered, you will
need to reprogram the HomeLink

Univer-

sal Transceiver with your new transmitter
information.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

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, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
duplicates by using the key number. INFINITI
does not record any 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, it can
be duplicated without knowing the key
number.

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.

It is possible that the Intelligent Key func-
tions become canceled. Contact an INFINITI
retailer.

CAUTION

. Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key

with you when driving. The Intelli-
gent Key is a precision device with a
built-in transmitter. To avoid dama-
ging it, please note the following.

— The Intelligent Key is water re-

sistant; however, wetting may
damage the Intelligent Key. If the
Intelligent Key gets wet, immedi-
ately wipe until it is completely
dry.

— Do not bend, drop or strike it

against another object.

— If the outside temperature is

below 14°F (−10°C), the battery
of the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.

— Do not place the Intelligent Key

for an extended period in a place

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
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require
the assistance of others or pets
unattended in your vehicle. Addition-
ally, the temperature inside a closed
vehicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a sig-
nificant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.

WARNING

. Radio waves could adversely affect

electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment man-
ufacturer for the possible influences
before use.

. The Intelligent Key transmits radio

waves when the buttons are pushed.
The FAA advises that the radio
waves may affect aircraft navigation
and communication systems. Do not
operate the Intelligent Key while on
an airplane. Make sure the buttons
are not operated unintentionally
when the unit is stored during a
flight.

The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the doors and the trunk lid 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 affect
the Intelligent 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.

. 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 Intelligent 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 broad-
casting station.

. When in possession of wireless equip-

ment, 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 condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key func-
tion 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 almost
discharged, see “Intelligent Key battery dis-
charge” (P.5-13) to start the engine.

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 “Intelligent Key battery replace-
ment” (P.8-25).

For models with a steering wheel lock
mechanism: 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. Pay special
attention that the vehicle battery is not
completely discharged.
