2014 Nissan Maxima - Intelligent Key® and Locking Functions

Without removing the Intelligent Key from your pocket or purse, you can lock or unlock doors and the trunk, as well as start the engine.

To unlock the vehicle, have the Intelligent Key with you and then push this Request Switch on the door handle. That door will unlock. Push the switch again within one minute to unlock all doors.

To lock your vehicle, push any door handle's Request Switch once, after all doors have been closed.

The Intelligent Key has lockout protection. If the power door lock switch is moved to the lock position with the driver's door open and the Intelligent Key in the vehicle, all doors unlock immediately and a warning chime sounds as soon as the door is closed.

These lock and unlock functions are operational when the Intelligent Key is within about 2½ feet of the corresponding request switch.

To activate the panic alarm, press this button for more than one second. The panic alarm will sound and the headlights will stay on for a period of time.

The Intelligent Key can also be used to operate door locks and windows from outside the vehicle, at a distance of up to 33 feet.

To lock doors, press the LOCK button. Your hazard warning lights will flash twice, your horn will beep once, and you'll know that all doors are locked.

This is the default setting from the factory, but it can be changed if the horn beep is not desired. To change the setting so the horn does not beep:
• Push the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for more than 2 seconds, and the hazard indicator flashes 3 times.
• To return to the horn mode, push the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for more than 2 seconds. The hazard indicator flashes once and the horn beeps once.

To unlock the doors, press the UNLOCK button. The hazard warning lights will flash and the driver's door will unlock. Press again within one minute to unlock all doors. All doors will automatically relock within one minute unless you push the ignition switch or open any door.

Hold the UNLOCK button for more than 3 seconds after the doors are unlocked to lower the automatic windows.

In a rare instance when your Intelligent Key battery is discharged, you can still use the Mechanical Key to lock or unlock the vehicle.

You'll find the Mechanical Key concealed on the back of the Intelligent Key. To remove it, release the lock knob on the back of the Intelligent Key and slide the Mechanical Key out. Then insert the Mechanical Key into the key cylinder on the driver's door and turn to lock or unlock the vehicle.

As many as four keys can be used with one vehicle, provided the Intelligent Keys are registered with a Nissan dealer prior to use with the Intelligent Key system.

The Intelligent Key contains sensitive electrical components. Please avoid these circumstances that could affect its operation.
• Avoid dropping or striking it against another object.
• Keep away from water.
• Keep away from equipment with magnetic fields, including computers, cell phones, TVs and audio accessories, and
• Avoid using a key chain that contains a magnet.
