Smart Keys

The key fob that came with your Nissan is a crucial element of the car's modern keyless entry system. It communicates with the vehicle's electronics to open doors and turn on the engine.

When you get close to the vehicle your Nissan detects the Intelligent Key fob's proximity to it and activates its internal functions. This could mean opening and closing the doors, raising or lowering the tailgate, and even starting up the engine.

The Smart Key fob has a charging pocket which can be used to charge the battery when it is not in use.

You may need to replace the batteries on your Nissan Intelligent Key fob if it's not working as it should. Most fobs are powered by CR2025 or CR2032 batteries. Instructions for replacing the batteries can be found in the owner's manual.

Many serious accidents have occurred because of a machine that was running when it should have been completely turned off to allow for maintenance or repair. These accidents are usually the result of energy that was not released properly. Lock-out-tag-out (LOTO) which makes sure that machines remain off until an authorized person releases them, helps avoid these types of accidents.

The LOTO system is made up of a number of locks, tags, and other devices used to secure, isolate or shut off a machine from electricity. All "affected" and "authorized" personnel should be trained on the use of these lockout/tag-out devices. These devices include but are not restricted to chains, locks padlocks and wedges, adapter pins and self-locking fasteners. Each device is unique and labeled, indicating the date and the time it was applied as well as the name and title of the person who was authorized to use it, and the purpose of the lockout/tagout (repairs maintenance, repairs, etc.). It must be stated clearly that these devices are not able to be removed until a complete LOTO procedure has been followed.
