Key FOB Nissan Frontier 2025

Got a 4x Frontier,
I don't wanna carry the key fob around with me when I go out metal detecting... can I leave fob in truck? will the truck still lock?
Can I remove key from fob and carry that around?

Nissan’s 2025 Frontier owner’s manual says that when the Intelligent Key is left inside and the door is closed with the inside lock knob set to LOCK, the truck can chime and unlock the doors. The manual also advises removing the Intelligent Key and not leaving keys inside. I would not rely on locking the fob in the truck. The mechanical key can be a backup for the driver’s door, but it is not a good reason to leave the transmitter inside. For metal detecting, carry the whole fob in a properly sealed pouch or use a plan verified against your exact trim and owner’s manual.
