ROOF RACK (if so equipped)

Always distribute the luggage evenly on
the roof rack. Do not load more than 220 lb
(100 kg) on the roof rails. Observe the
maximum load limit shown on the cross-
bars or roof carriers when you attach them
on the roof rails. Contact an INFINITI
retailer for crossbar or other equipment
information.

Be careful that your vehicle does not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR front and rear). The GVWR and
GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.

M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For more information
regarding GVWR and GAWR, see “Vehicle
loading information” in the “9. Technical
and consumer information” section.

WARNING

.

Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying
capacity, especially if the significant
portion of that load is carried on the
roof rack.

.

Heavy loading of the roof rack has the
potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.

.

Roof rack load should be evenly dis-
tributed.

.

Do not exceed maximum roof rack load
weight capacity.

.

Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause personal
injury.

CAUTION

Use care when placing or removing items
from the roof rack. If you cannot comfortably
lift the items onto the roof rack from the
ground, use a ladder or stool.

HomeLink

®

Universal Transceiver provides

a convenient way to consolidate the func-
tions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.

HomeLink

®

Universal Transceiver:

. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)

devices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door
locks and security systems.

. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No

separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink

®

will retain all

programming.

Once HomeLink

®

Universal Transceiver is

programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures
(Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon
sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink

®

Universal Transceiver buttons

should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, see “Program-
ming HomeLink

®

” later in this section.

WARNING

.

Do not use HomeLink

®

Universal Trans-

ceiver with any garage door opener that
lacks safety stop and reverse features as

VANITY MIRROR LIGHTS

CARGO LIGHT (if so equipped)

HomeLink

®

UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if

equipped)

required by federal safety standards.
(These standards became effective for
opener models manufactured after April
1, 1982.) A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then automati-
cally stop and reverse, does not meet
current federal safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious injury
or death.

.

During programming procedure, your
garage door or security gate may open
or close. Make sure that people and
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.

.

Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming HomeLink

versal Transceiver.

PROGRAMMING HomeLink

®

To program your HomeLink

®

Transceiver to

operate a garage door, gate, or entry door
opener, home or office lighting, you need
to be at the same location as the device.
Note: Garage door openers (manufactured
after 1996) have “rolling code protection”.
To program a garage door opener equipped
with “rolling code protection”; you will
need to use a ladder to get up to the
garage door opener motor to be able to
access the “smart or learn” program
button.
