2001 NISSAN QUEST remote start

Security indicator light
This light will illuminate for the vehicle secu-
rity system.
This light blinks whenever the ignition
switch is in the LOCK, OFF, or ACC posi-
tion. This function indicates the security
system equipped on the vehicle is opera-
tional.
How to activate the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.(The system can be
activated even if the windows are
open).
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close all doors and the hood.
4. Push the
button on the multi-remote
controller. All doors lock. The hazard
lights flash twice and the horn beeps
once to indicate all doors are locked.
cWhen the
button is pushed with all
doors locked, the hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once as a
reminder that the doors are already
locked.
The horn may or may not beep once.
Refer to ``silencing the horn beep fea-
ture'' later in this section for details.
5. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator
light comes on. The SECURITY light
glows for about 30 seconds and then
begins to flash once every three seconds.
The system is now activated. If, during
this 30-second time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the multi-remotecontroller, or the ignition key is turned to
ACC or ON, the system will not activate.
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the door, the system may not activate.
Furthermore, if the key is turned exces-
sively to the unlock position, the system
may be deactivated when the key is re-
moved. If the indicator light fails to glow
for 30 seconds, unlock the door once
and lock it again.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate with all doors, hood and rear door
closed with the ignition key in the OFF
position.

lowing alarm:

tion, the starter motor does not operate.
cThe alarm automatically turns off after
two to three minutes. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
