2001 INFINITI QX4 key

System Description=NBEL0171NATS (Nissan Anti-Theft System) has the following immobilizer functions:
ISince only IVIS (NATS) ignition keys, whose ID nos. have been registered into the ECM and IMMU of IVIS
(NATS), allow the engine to run, operation of a stolen vehicle without an IVIS (NATS) registered key is
prevented by IVIS (NATS).
That is to say, IVIS (NATS) will immobilise the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key
of IVIS (NATS).
IAll of the originally supplied ignition key IDs (except for card plate key) have been IVIS (NATS) registered.
If requested by the vehicle owner, a maximum of five key IDs can be registered into the IVIS (NATS) com-
ponents.
IThe security indicator blinks when the ignition switch is in ªOFFº or ªACCº position. Therefore, IVIS (NATS)
warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.
IWhen IVIS (NATS) detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition key is in the ªONº
position.
IIVIS (NATS) trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other IVIS (NATS) igni-
tion key IDs must be carried out using CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II IVIS (NATS) software.
When IVIS (NATS) initialization has been completed, the ID of the inserted ignition key is automatically
IVIS (NATS) registered. Then, if necessary, additional registration of other IVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs
can be carried out.
Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS) initialization and IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer
to CONSULT-II operation manual, IVIS/NVIS.
IWhen servicing a malfunction of the IVIS (NATS) (indicated by lighting up of Security Indicator
Lamp) or registering another IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID no., it is necessary to re-register original
key identification. Therefore, be sure to receive ALL KEYS from vehicle owner.
System CompositionNBEL0172The immobiliser function of the IVIS (NATS) consists of the following:
IIVIS (NATS) ignition key
IIVIS (NATS) immobilizer control unit (IMMU) located in the ignition key cylinder

NOTE:
IWhen any initialization is performed, all ID previously reg-
istered will be erased and all IVIS (NATS) ignition keys
must be registered again.
IThe engine cannot be started with an unregistered key. In this
case, the system will show ªDIFFERENCE OF KEYº or ªLOCK
MODEº as a self-diagnostic result on the CONSULT-II screen.
IIn rare case, ªCHAIN OF ECM-IMMUº might be stored as a
self-diagnostic result during key registration procedure, even if
the system is not malfunctioning.
