NISSAN Intelligent Key

Replace the battery in the Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key as follows:

1. Remove the mechanical key from the Intelligent Key.

2. Insert a small flathead screwdriver A into the slit B at the corner of the Intelligent Key. Gently twist the screwdriver to separate the upper part from the lower part. Place a cloth over the screwdriver to help protect the key casing from scratches or damage.

3. Replace the old battery with a new one.

Recommended battery: CR2032 or equivalent.

• Do not touch the internal circuit board or electrical terminals, as this may cause the Intelligent Key to malfunction.
• Hold the battery only by its edges. Touching the battery across the contact surfaces may significantly reduce its stored capacity.
• Make sure the + side of the battery faces the bottom of the lower part, as shown.

4. Close the Intelligent Key case securely as illustrated with C and D.

5. Press the buttons to confirm that the Intelligent Key operates correctly with the Nissan Frontier.

If you need assistance replacing the battery or checking Intelligent Key operation, it is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.

Correct battery installation helps maintain reliable remote locking, unlocking, and Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key performance. If the key operates only at a short distance after replacement, recheck the battery position and make sure the case is fully closed.
