2008 NISSAN NOTE theft

If the warning light remains illuminated after the en-
gine has been started, there will be no power steer-
ing assistance: the vehicle may be driven using the
mechanical steering system although it is not rec-
ommended as the effort to turn the steering wheel
will be significantly increased compared to normal
operation.
WARNING
•If the EPAS warning light illuminates while
driving, stop as soon as safely possible.
•In certain circumstances, factors external to
the EPAS system may contribute to the illumi-
nation of the warning light. If the warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible if driving, turn the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position for approximately 20 sec-
onds, then turn the ignition switch to the ON
position again. If the light remains illuminated,
we recommend you to contact a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
See “Power steering system” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for further details on the EPAS sys-
tem.
Ignition knob warning light
(Intelligent Key system only)
When the ignition knob is turned to the ON position,
the ignition knob warning light illuminates for a few
seconds and then goes off. This means the system
is operational.The ignition knob warning light warns the driver of
the ignition knob position.
MT models:
The warning light blinks and the buzzer sounds twice
when the ignition knob is turned to the “OFF” posi-
tion. Depress the ignition PUSH release button, then
turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
AT models:
The warning light blinks and the buzzer sounds twice
when the ignition knob is turned to the “OFF” posi-
tion. Make sure the selector lever is in the P (Park)
position, then turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
See “Ignition knob (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section for further details.
CAUTION
•The steering wheel can only be locked when
the ignition knob is in the LOCK position. Make
sure the ignition knob is in the LOCK position
before leaving the vehicle.
•The emergency key can only be removed at
the LOCK position. Make sure the ignition
knob is in the LOCK position before removing
the emergency key.
•If the ignition knob warning light comes on
while driving, contact a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop for repair.
NATS security indicator light
This light blinks whenever the ignition switch is in
the LOCK or Acc position. This function indicates
that your vehicle is equipped with NISSAN Anti-
Theft System (NATS)*.
If NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* is malfunc-
tioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
For additional information, see “NISSAN Anti-Theft
System (NATS)” later in this section.
* Immobilizer
Seat belt warning light and
chime
The light reminds the driver to fasten his/her seat
belt. The light comes on whenever the ignition switch
is turned to the ON position. It goes out whenever
the front seat belt is securely fastened. The chime
will sound unless the front seat belt is securely fas-
tened when the vehicle speed exceeds 25 km/h (15
MPH). The chime will stop after approximately 90
seconds.
NOTE
The front passenger seat belt warning light
comes on the centre console. See “Seat belt
warning lights” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” section.

The key/emergency keyjB is applicable to:
•the ignition switch or ignition knob (keyfob dead
battery situation)
•the left-hand side door key cylinder (vehicle dead
battery situation)
•the front passenger air bag switch
CAUTION
Do not leave the ignition key or Intelligent Key
inside the vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
NOTE
To access the emergency key
jB (Intelligent Key
equipped models), remove the keyfob lower
cover according to the steps
j1,j2andj3 de-
scribed in “Emergency key – Intelligent Key dead
battery situation” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.
The key can only be inserted fully in the ignition
switch or knob cylinder. For the left-hand side doorhandle and front passenger air bag switch (Intelli-
gent Key equipped models), it is normal for the key
not to go into the key cylinder all the way.
Record the key number shown on the tag
jA on the
“Security information” page at the end of this manual
and keep it in a safe place,not in the vehicle.Ifyou
lose your keys or Intelligent Keys, see your NISSAN
dealer for duplicates by using the key number.
NISSAN does not record key numbers so it is very
important to keep track of your key number plate.
Note that a key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be dupli-
cated by your NISSAN dealer.
Only the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* key
can be used on your vehicle. A key number is nec-
essary when you need an extra NATS key. As many
as four NATS keys can be used on one vehicle. The
new key must be registered to the NATS compo-
nents of your vehicle by your NISSAN dealer. At this
time, you are requested to bring all your NATS keys
to your NISSAN dealer.
* Immobilizer
This is necessary because the registration process
will erase all memory of the NATS components.
Do not allow NATS keys which contain the tran-
sponder chip to come in contact with salt water.
Salt water may damage the transponder chip and
cause a NATS key malfunction.

KEYS
3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments

•The Intelligent Key contains a miniature radio
transmitter that may be affected when placed
near metal objects.
•Keep the Intelligent Key away from mobile
phones, lap-top computers and other metal
objects or electronics.
STARTING THE ENGINE WITH THE
INTELLIGENT KEY
See “Ignition knob (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section.
CAUTION
•Make sure you carry the Intelligent Key with
you when starting and driving the vehicle.
•If the Intelligent Key is too far away from the
passenger compartment, the vehicle may not
start.
WARNING
•Always look before opening any doors, to
avoid an accident with oncoming traffic.
•Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently
become involved in a serious accident.
SUPER LOCK SYSTEM (Right-hand
drive models)
WARNING
For Super Lock System equipped models, failure
to follow the precautions below may lead to haz-
ardous situations. Make sure the Super Lock Sys-
tem activation is always safely conducted.
•When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the
doors with the integrated keyfob. Doing so
will trap the occupants, since the Super Lock
System prevents the doors from being opened
from the inside of the vehicle.
•Only operate the integrated keyfob lock but-
ton when there is a clear view of the vehicle.
This is to prevent anybody from being trapped
inside the vehicle through the Super Lock
System activation.
Locking the doors with the integrated keyfob will
lock all doors including the back door and activate
the Super Lock System. This means that none ofthe doors can be opened from the inside, adding
extra security in case of break-in or theft.
The system will be released when the door is un-
locked with the integrated keyfob.
The Super Lock System will not activate when the
doors are locked with the power door lock switch or
the key.
Emergency situations
If the Super Lock System is activated due to a traf-
fic accident or other unexpected circumstances
while you are in the vehicle:
•Insert the key/emergency key in the ignition
switch, turn it to the ON position, the Super Lock
system will be released and all doors can be
unlocked.
•Open or break the door window on the front
passenger’s side, remove the protection cap on
the passenger’s side door handle, insert the key
into the passenger’s side door key cylinder and
turn it to the unlock position, after which you will
be able to open the door.
•Remove the key from the ignition switch and un-
lock the door using the integrated keyfob.
DOOR LOCKS
3-6Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
•Do not drive with the back door opened. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be
drawn into the vehicle.
•Closely supervise children when they are
around the vehicle to prevent them from play-
ing and being locked in the luggage compart-
ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked, with the back door
closed, when not in use, and prevent chil-
dren’s access to the vehicle’s keys.
NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (NATS)
The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
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) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.
NATS security warning light
The security warning light blinks whenever the igni-
tion switch is in the LOCK, “OFF” or Acc position.
This function indicates that NATS is equipped on
the vehicle.
If the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS) is mal-
functioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
key is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine will not
start, see your NISSAN dealer for NATS service
as soon as possible. Please bring all NATS keys
or NATS Intelligent Keys when visiting your
NISSAN dealer for service.
Additional information for RHD models
If the NATS is malfunctioning, this light will turn on
after flashing six times while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
However, if the NATS security warning light turns
off after the light has remained on for 15 minutes,

vehicle owner, the possibility of the audio unit being
stolen is effectively reduced because without the
code, the audio unit cannot be activated. When used
normally, the audio unit is unlocked and accessible
in the usual way.
If force is used to try and remove the audio unit, the
Anti-Theft system activates and the audio unit locks.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Use of a 4-digit radio PIN (Personal Identification
Number) code, known only to the vehicle owner,
effectively reduces the possibility of the audio unit
being stolen. Without the PIN code the audio unit
cannot be activated.
If force is used to try and remove the audio unit, the
Anti-theft system activates and the audio unit is
locked. The only way to unlock the audio unit is to
enter the radio code number shown on an identifica-
tion card supplied with the vehicle documentation.
NOTE
•The 4 digit radio code is shown on a card that
you received with your vehicle documenta-
tion.
•Record the 4 digit radio code on the “Security
information” page at the end of this manual.
Remove the security page and keep it in a
safe, not in the vehicle.
•Contact a NISSAN dealer if you do lose the 4
digit radio code of the audio unit.
