NISSAN Intelligent Key

To maintain reliable operation of your Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key, replace the battery using the following procedure:

1. Remove the mechanical key from the Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key unit.

2. Insert a small flathead screwdriver A into the slit B at the corner of the key casing and gently twist to separate the upper and lower halves. To avoid damage, place a soft cloth between the screwdriver and the casing.

3. Replace the old battery with a new one of the recommended type.

Recommended battery: CR2032 or equivalent.

• Do not touch the internal electronic circuit or terminals of the Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key, as this may cause malfunction.
• Always handle the battery by its edges. Touching both contact surfaces simultaneously may reduce battery life.
• Ensure that the positive (+) side of the battery is correctly oriented toward the bottom of the housing.

4. Carefully reassemble the Intelligent Key casing by aligning and pressing the halves together until they securely snap into place (positions C and D).

5. Test all buttons on the Nissan Frontier Intelligent Key to confirm proper operation.
