System DescriptionAIS004PB
DESCRIPTION
IVIS (Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System – NATS) has the following immobilizer functions:

Engine immobilizer shows high anti-theft performance to prevent engine start by other than the owner
(registered key: ignition key, mechanical key and Intelligent Key).

Only a key with key ID registered in BCM and ECM can start engine, and shows high anti-theft perfor-
mance to prevent key from being copied or stolen.

pedal to the specified height, and tighten lock nut (A).
CAUTION:
Make sure the threaded end of input rod stays inside clevis.
3. With pedal pulled and held by hand, press stop lamp switch and
ASCD cancel switch (or brake switch) until its threaded end con-
tacts stopper rubber.
4. With the threaded end of stop lamp switch and ASCD cancel
switch (or brake switch) contacting stopper rubber, rotate switch
clockwise by 45° to secure.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the clearance (C) between stopper rubber
and threaded end of stop lamp switch and ASCD cancel
switch (or brake switch) is within the standard.
5. Check pedal play.
CAUTION:
Make sure that stop lamps go off when pedal is released.
