ous damage to the engine almost imme-
diately. Turn off the engine as soon as it
is safe to do so.

models)
The 4WD warning light comes on when the key
switch is turned to ON. It turns off soon after the
engine is started.
If the 4WD system malfunctions or the revolu-
tion, or radius of the front and the rear wheel
differs, the warning light will either remain illumi-
nated or blink. See “Using four-wheel drive
(4WD)” in the “5. Starting and driving” section.

you are driving:
•blinks rapidly (about twice a sec-
ond):

idle the engine. The driving mode
will change to 2WD to prevent the
4WD system from malfunctioning.
If the warning light turns off, you
can drive again.

seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area, and
idle the engine. Check that all tire

Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
Vehicle Security System
Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEMThe vehicle security system provides visual and
audible alarm signals if someone opens the
doors when the system is armed. It is not,
however, a motion detection type system thatactivates 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 components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your keys in the vehicle,
and always lock the vehicle when unattended.
Be aware of your surroundings, and park in
secure, well-lit areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification markers,
and tracking systems, are available at auto sup-
ply stores and specialty shops. A NISSAN dealer
may also offer such equipment. Check with your
insurance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various theft protection fea-
tures.
How to arm the vehicle security
system1. 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 back
door.
Lock all doors by pressing the LOCK button
on the keyfobor using the key. When using
the keyfob, the hazard indicators flash to
indicate all doors are locked.

4. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator light
A
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 back door locked
and ignition key off. Turn the ignition key
to ACC to turn the system off.
Vehicle security system activationThe security system will give the following alarm:
The hazard indicators flash and the horn
sounds intermittently.
The alarm automatically turns off after ap-
proximately 25 seconds, and this will be
repeated three times. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by unlocking
a door with the key, or by pushing the
UNLOCK button on the keyfob.
The alarm is activated by:
Opening the door (including the back door)
without using the key or keyfob.Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarmThe alarm will stop only by unlocking a door with
the key, or by pushing the UNLOCK button on
keyfob. The alarm will not stop if the ignition key
is turned to ACC or ON.
If the system does not operate as de-
scribed above, have it checked by a
NISSAN dealer.NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEMThe NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered key.
If the engine does not start using the registered
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
procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK
position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered key.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
key on a separate key ring to avoid interfer-
ence from other devices.
This device complies with RSS-210 of In-
dustry Canada. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions;
(1) This device may not cause harmful in-
terference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired opera-
tion of the device.
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EX-
PRESSLY APPROVED BY THE PARTY RE-
SPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE COULD
VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPER-
ATE THE EQUIPMENT.
