What Are the Intelligent Key Features?The Intelligent Key can do much more than just open your car’s doors. It has a button that rolls down the windows when you want to let cool air in. It can also help you locate your vehicle. If you are in a crowded parking lot and can’t find your Nissan, just press the lock button. It will honk the horn and give you a flash with the lights. If you arrive home late at night and want to lock up without making noise, so you don’t disturb your neighbors or family, you can press the lock and unlock buttons at the same time to put it in silent mode. The horn will stay quiet, but you’ll still get the lights flashing, so you know it’s locked. Press the lock and unlock it again to bring the horn back. Your Intelligent Key fob has a backup in case the battery dies. On the back, you’ll find a tab that slides out to reveal a hidden key. You can use this to unlock the car and get in. Even without a good battery, your Intelligent Key will still start the engine. You just need to press the key fob against the start-stop button, and it will start right up. If your Nissan has memory functions for the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and mirrors, you can use the Intelligent Key to put them in your favorite position. The fob can remember two drivers’ preferences. Just select driver one or driver two, and everything will move into that person’s preferred position. How To Program a Transponder Key FobIf your Nissan has a regular transponder key fob, you can program it using these steps:
How Does the Intelligent Key Work?The Intelligent Key uses antennae that transmit signals between the key and the car, and it uses a tuner to receive the signals. The technology allows you to lock or unlock the doors just by pressing the Request Switch on the door when you have the key with you and are within proximity of the car. Because you don’t have to use the key to perform these basic functions, you don’t have to worry about searching your pockets or bag to find the key to get in or start the engine. The key also has a lockout protection function that prevents you from locking it inside the vehicle or the trunk. The technology can detect the status of the door lock and determine if the key is in the vehicle as soon as the door or trunk closes. If you leave your key inside your Nissan, you’ll hear an alert buzzer, and the vehicle will automatically unlock the door and open the trunk.
