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 and lock all doors, hood and trunk lid.
Lock all doors by pressing the LOCK button
on the keyfob. When using the keyfob, the
hazard indicators flash twice to indicate all
doors are locked. 4. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator light
comes on. The SECURITY indicator light
glows for about 30 seconds and then blinks.
The system is now activated. If, during this
30 second time period, the door is unlocked
by the key or the keyfob, or the ignition key
is turned to ACC or ON, the system will not
activate.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all doors, hood and trunk lid locked
and ignition key off. Turn the ignition key to
ACC to turn off the system.
Vehicle security system operation The security system will give the following
alarm:
O The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
O The alarm automatically turns off after ap-
proximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by unlock-
ing a door with the key, or by pressing the
UNLOCK button on the keyfob.
The alarm is activated by:
O Opening the door without using the key or
keyfob. O Opening the trunk lid without using the key
or keyfob.
O Opening the hood.
How to stop alarm The alarm will stop only by unlocking a door
with the key, or by pressing the UNLOCK
button on keyfob. The alarm will not stop if the
ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON.
If the system does not operate as de-
scribed above, have it checked by your
INFINITI retailer.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM The Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered
Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System key, it may
be due to interference caused by another
Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System key, an
automated toll road device or automated pay-
ment device on the key ring. Restart the en-
gine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.SIC1442

2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK
position and wait approximately 10 sec-
onds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered Infiniti Vehicle
Immobilizer System key.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
INFINITI recommends placing the regis-
tered Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System
key on a separate key ring to avoid inter-
ference from other devices.

The windshield wiper and washer operates
when the ignition key is in the ON position.
Push the lever down to operate the wiper.
Intermittent operation can be adjusted by turn-
ing the knob. Also, the intermittent operation
speed varies in accordance with the vehicle
speed. (e.g. When the vehicle speed is high,
the intermittent operation speed will be faster.)
Pull the lever toward you to operate the
washer. Then the wiper will also operate sev-
eral times. WARNING In freezing temperatures the washer so-
lution may freeze on the windshield and
obscure your vision which may lead to
an accident. Warm the windshield with

shield.
CAUTION The following could damage the washer
system:
O Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for more than 30 seconds.

XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so
equipped)
WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE
O When xenon headlights are on, they
produce a high voltage. To prevent an
electric shock, never attempt to
modify or disassemble. Always have
your xenon headlights replaced at an authorized INFINITI retailer.
O Xenon headlights provide consider-
ably more light than conventional
headlights. If they are not correctly
aimed, they might temporarily blind
an oncoming driver or the driver
ahead of you and cause a serious
accident. If headlights are not aimed
correctly, immediately take your ve-
hicle to an authorized INFINITI retailer
and have the headlights adjusted
correctly. When the xenon headlight is initially turned on,
its brightness or color varies slightly. However,
the color and brightness will soon stabilize.
O The life of xenon headlights will be
shortened by frequent on-off operation.
It is generally desirable not to turn off
the headlights for short intervals (for
example, when the vehicle stops at a
traffic signal). Even when the daytime
running lights are active (Canada only),
the xenon headlights do not turn on.
This way the life of the xenon headlights
is not reduced.
O If a xenon headlight bulb is close to
burning out, the brightness will drasti-
cally decrease, the light will start blink-
ing, or the color of the light will become
reddish. If one or more of the above
signs appear, contact an INFINITI re-
tailer.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
Lighting Turn the switch to the AUTO position:
When the ignition key is in the ON position, the
tail lights, headlights, instrument lights and

photo sensor located on the top left-hand
side of the instrument panel. The photo
sensor controls the autolamp; if it is cov-
ered, the photo sensor reacts as if it is dark
and the headlights will illuminate.
Battery saver system O When the headlight switch is in the or
position while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights (including the
front fog light) will automatically turn off 5
minutes after the ignition switch has been
turned to the OFF position. O When the headlight switch remains in the

Daytime running light system
(Canada only) The headlights automatically illuminate at a
reduced intensity when the engine is started
with the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight switch
in the OFF position or in the position.
Turn the headlight switch to the position
for full illumination when driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights do
not illuminate. The daytime running lights illu-
minate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on until
the ignition switch is turned off. WARNING When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle are
not on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on
your headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself and
others.
