2003 INFINITI G35 alarm

control off switch is pushed to OFF. This
indicates the vehicle dynamics control system
and traction control system are not operating.
When the vehicle dynamics control off indica-
tor light and slip indicator light come on with
the vehicle dynamics control system turned
on, this light alerts the driver to the fact that the
vehicle dynamics control system's fail-safe
mode is operating, i.e. the vehicle dynamics
control system may not be functioning prop-
erly. Have the system checked by your
INFINITI retailer. If an abnormality occurs in
the system, the vehicle dynamics control sys-
tem function will be canceled but the vehicle is
still driveable. For additional information, see
ªVehicle dynamics control system (VDC)º in
the ª5. Starting and drivingº section of this
manual.

lightsThe light flashes when the turn signal switch
lever or hazard switch is turned on.

Key reminder chime The chime will sound if the driver's side door is
opened while the key is left in the ignition
switch (ignition switch is turned off). Remove the key and take it with you when leaving the
vehicle.

opened with the headlight switch on unless the
ignition key is in the ON position.

Brake pad wear warning The disc brake pads have audible wear warn-
ings. When a brake pad requires replacement,
it will make a high pitched scraping sound
when the vehicle is in motion whether or not

sound is heard. Your vehicle has two types of security sys-
tems, as follows:
O Vehicle Security System

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:

proximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with

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

CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR
LOCK Child safety locking helps prevent doors from
being opened accidentally, especially when
small children are in the vehicle.
When the lever is in the LOCK position, the
rear door can be opened only from the
outside. It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, trunk lid
and fuel filler lid and activate the panic alarm
by using the keyfob from outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfob can operate at a distance of ap-
proximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the condi-
tions around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the pur-
chase and use of additional keyfob, contact
your INFINITI retailer.
The keyfob will not function when:
O the battery is dead,
O the distance between the vehicle and the
keyfob is over 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm and the trunk lid release
will not activate when the key is in the
ignition switch.
CAUTION The following conditions or occurrences
will damage the keyfob. O Do not allow the keyfob to become
wet.
O Do not drop the keyfob.
O Do not strike the keyfob sharply
against another object.
O Do not place the keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140ÉF (60ÉC).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, INFINITI
recommends erasing the ID code of that
keyfob. This will prevent the keyfob from
unauthorized use to unlock the vehicle.
For information regarding the erasing
procedure, please contact an authorized
INFINITI retailer.
