Precautions For Intelligent Key System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Nissan Altima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

In the Intelligent Key system of model L32, the transponder [the chip for NVIS (NATS) ID verification] is integrated into the Intelligent Key. (For vehicles without Intelligent Key, it is integrated into the mechanical key.) Therefore, the mechanical key cannot perform the ID verification, and thus it cannot start the hybrid system. Instead, the NVIS (NATS) ID verification can be performed by inserting the Intelligent Key into the key slot, and then it can start the hybrid system.
