yourselfº section.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have
the warning system checked by an
INFINITI dealer.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and
the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both
the brake warning light and the anti-lock
brake system warning light illuminate, it
may indicate the anti-lock brake system is
not functioning properly. Have the brake
system checked by an INFINITI dealer. See
ªAnti-lock brake warning lightº earlier in
this section. WARNING O Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on.

Your vehicle has two types of security
systems, as follows:
O Vehicle Security System
O INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by
the security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM The vehicle security system provides vi-
sual and audible alarm signals if
someone opens the doors, hood, or trunk
lid when the system is armed. It is not,
however, a motion detection type system that activates when a vehicle is moved or
when a vibration occurs.
The system helps deter vehicle theft but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
theft of interior or exterior vehicle compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your keys in the vehicle, and
always lock it when unattended. Be aware
of your surroundings, and park in secure,
well-lit areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. An INFINITI dealer may also
offer such equipment. Check with your in-
surance company to see if you may be eli-
gible for discounts for various theft pro-
tection features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system 1. Close all windows.
The system can be armed even if the win-
dows are open.
2. O Remove the key from the ignition
switch.
O Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position or remove the mechanical
key from the ignition switch (Intelli-
gent Key equipped model).SIC2132 SIC2564

3. Close and lock all doors, hood and
trunk lid.
Lock all doors by pushing the LOCK
button on the keyfob, the Intelli-
gent Key or by pushing any front door
handle request switch or turning the
door key. When using the remote key-
less entry, the hazard indicators will
operate as shown in ªRemote keyless
entry systemº or ªIntelligent Key
systemº in the ª3. Pre-driving checks
and adjustmentsº section.
4. Confirm that the security indicator
light
q A
comes on. The security indica-
tor light glows for about 30 seconds
and then blinks. The system is now
armed. If, during this 30-second time
period, the door is unlocked by the
key, the remote keyless entry or the
front door request switch, or the igni-
tion switch is turned to the ACC or ON
position, the system will not be
armed.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will be
armed with all doors, hood and trunk lid
locked and ignition switch off. Turn the ig-
nition switch to the ACC position to turn off
the system. Vehicle security system activation The security system will give the following
alarm:
O The headlights blink and the horn
sounds intermittently.
O The alarm automatically turns off after
approximately 50 seconds. However,
the alarm reactivates if the vehicle is
tampered with again. The alarm can
be shut off by unlocking a door with
the key, by pushing any front door
handle request switch or by pushing
the UNLOCK button on the keyfob
or Intelligent Key.
The alarm is activated by:
O Opening the door without using the
key or keyfob or Intelligent Key.
O Opening the trunk lid without using
the keyfob or Intelligent Key.
O Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarm The alarm will stop only by unlocking a
door with the key, by pushing any door
handle request switch or by pushing the
UNLOCK button on keyfob or Intelli-
gent Key. The alarm will not stop if the ig- nition switch is turned to the ACC or ON
position.
If the system does not operate as de-
scribed above, have it checked by an
INFINITI dealer.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
will not allow the engine to start without
the use of the registered key.
If the engine fails to start using the regis-
tered key (for example, when interference
is caused by another registered key, an
automated toll road device or automated
payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following proce-
dures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po-
sition for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or
LOCK position and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the
device (which may have caused the in-

terference) separate from the regis-
tered key.
If this procedure allows the engine to
start, INFINITI recommends placing the
registered key on a separate key ring
to avoid interference from other de-
vices.

vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-
held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink Universal Transceiver:
O Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
O Is powered by your vehicle's battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle's battery is discharged or
is disconnected, HomeLink will retain
all programming.
Once the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For addi-
tional information, refer to ªProgramming
HomeLink º later in this section.SIC1859

WARNINGO Do not use the HomeLink Universal
Transceiver with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse features
as required by federal safety standards.
(These standards became effective for
opener models manufactured after April 1,
1982.) A garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a closing
garage door and then automatically stop
and reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death.
O During the programming procedure, your
garage door or security gate will open or
close (if the transmitter is within range).
Make sure that people or objects are clear
of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are
programming.
O Your vehicle's engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver. PROGRAMMING HomeLink To program your HomeLink Transceiver
to operate a garage door, gate, or entry
door opener, home or office lighting, you
need to be at the same location as the
device. Note: Garage door openers (manu-
factured after 1996) have ªrolling code
protectionº. To program a garage door
opener equipped with ªrolling code pro-
tectionº; you will need to use a ladder to
get up to the garage door opener motor to
be able to access the ªtrainingº program
button.
1. To begin, push and hold the 2 outer
HomeLink buttons (to clear the
memory) until the indicator light
q A
blinks (after 20 seconds). Release both
buttons.
2. Position the end of the hand-held trans-
mitte r1-3 inches (26 - 76 mm) away
from the HomeLink
surface. SIC3012
