2006 INFINITI G35 alarm

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.

Lockout protection When the power door lock switch (driver
or front passenger) is moved to the LOCK
position with the key in the ignition and
any door open, all doors will lock and un-
lock automatically. This helps to prevent
the keys from being accidentally locked
inside the vehicle.
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
(Sedan) Child safety rear door lock helps prevent
rear doors from being opened acciden-
tally, especially when small children are
in the vehicle.
When the levers are in the LOCK
q 1
posi-
tion, the rear doors can be opened by the
outside door handles only.
To disengage, move the levers to the un-

. It is possible to lock/unlock all doors,
trunk lid and fuel-filler door 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 maximum
distance of approximately 33 ft (10 m)
away from the vehicle. (The operating dis-
tance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information about pur-
chase and use of additional keyfobs, con-
tact an INFINITI dealer.
The keyfob will not function when:
O the battery is completely discharged,
O the distance between the vehicle and
the keyfob is more than 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm will not activate when the
key is in the ignition switch.

rized use to unlock the vehicle. For informa-
tion regarding the erasing procedure, please
