NOTE:
If customer reports a “NO START” condition, requ est ALL ignition key (without intelligent key system)
or mechanical key (with intelligent key system) to be brought to the dealer to check for a NATS mal-
function.
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001327923
DESCRIPTION
IVIS (Infinity 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 (regis-
tered 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 performance
to prevent key from being copied or stolen.
 In the vehicle without Intelligent Key system, security indicator always flashes with other than ignition switch
ON or START position.

< SERVICE INFORMATION >
IVIS (INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM-NATS)
 In the vehicle with Intelligent Key system, security indicator always flashes with mechanical key removed
condition (key switch OFF) and ignition knob rel eased condition on LOCK position (ignition knob switch
OFF).
 Therefore, IVIS (NATS) warns outsiders that t he vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.
 If system detects malfunction, it turns on secu rity indicator in ignition switch ON position.
 If the owner requires, mechanical key ID can be registered for up to 5 keys.
 During trouble diagnosis or when the following parts have been replaced, and if ignition key or mechanical
key is added, registration* is required.
*: All keys kept by the owner of the vehicle s hould be registered with ignition key or mechanical key.
-ECM
-BCM
- Ignition key (models without Intelligent Key system)
- Mechanical key (models with Intelligent Key system)
 IVIS (NATS) trouble diagnoses, system initialization and addi tional registration of other IVIS (NATS) ignition
key or mechanical key IDs must be carried out usi ng CONSULT-III hardware and CONSULT-III IVIS (NATS)
software. When IVIS (NATS) initialization has been comple ted, the ID of the inserted ignition key or mechan-
ical key or mechanical key IDs can be carried out.
Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS) initializati on and ignition key or mechanical key ID registration,
refer to CONSULT-III operat ion manual, NATS-IVIS/NVIS.
SECURITY INDICATOR
 Warns that the vehicle has IVIS (NATS).
 In the vehicle without Intelligent Key system, security indicator always flashes with other than ignition switch
ON or START position. In the vehicle with Intelligent Key system, security indicator always flashes with
mechanical key removed condition (key switch OFF) and ignition knob released condition on LOCK position
(ignition knob switch OFF).
NOTE:
Because security indicator is highly efficient, the battery is barely affected.
Condition of Security Indicator
WITHOUT INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM
WITH INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM
 In ignition knob operation with Intelligent Key, it always turns on with pushing ignition knob, and always flashes with ignition knob released (ignition knob swit ch OFF) condition on ignition knob “LOCK” position.
 In ignition knob operation with mechanical key, it turns off on the condition that mechanical key is inserted in
key cylinder, and always flashes with ignition knob released (ignition knob switch OFF) condition on
mechanical key removed condition.
System CompositionINFOID:0000000001327924

The communication between ECM, BCM and/or Intelligent K ey unit uses the CAN communication sys-
tem.
ECM Re-Communicating FunctionINFOID:0000000001327925
Performing following procedure can automatically per form re-communication of ECM and BCM or Intelligent
Key unit, but only when the ECM has been replaced with a new one (*1).
*1: New one means a virgin ECM which has never been energized on-board.
(In this step, initialization procedur e by CONSULT-III is not necessary)
NOTE:
 When registering new Key IDs or replacing the ECM other than brand new, refer to CONSULT-III
Operation Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS.
 If multiple keys are attached to the key holder, separate them before work.
 Distinguish keys with unregistered key ID from those with registered ID.
1. Install ECM.
2. Using a registered key (*2), turn ignition switch to “ON”. *2: To perform this step, use the key that has been used before performing ECM replacement.
3. Maintain ignition switch in “ON” position for at least 5 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch to “OFF”.
5. Start engine. If engine can be started, procedure is completed.
If engine cannot be started, refer to CONSULT-III O peration Manual NATS-IVIS/NVIS and initialize control
unit.
