2011 INFINITI G-CONVERTIBLE alarm

Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
●Vehicle security system
● INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual and
audio 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 components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your Intelligent Key(s)
in the vehicle, and always lock it when unat-
tended. Be aware of your surroundings, and
park in secure, well-lit areas whenever pos-
sible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification mark-
ers, and tracking systems, are available at auto
supply stores and specialty shops. Your INFINITI
retailer may also offer such equipment. Check
with your insurance company to see if you may
be eligible 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 windows
are open.
2. Push the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
3. Remove the Intelligent Key from the ve- hicle.
4. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch, power door lock switch or me-
chanical key.

5. Confirm that the security indicator lightcomes on. The security indicator light
stays on for about 30 seconds. The ve-
hicle security system is now pre-armed.
After about 30 seconds the vehicle secu-
rity system automatically shifts into the
armed phase. The security light begins to
flash once every approximately 3 sec-
onds. If, during this 30-second pre-arm
time period, the door is unlocked, or the
ignition switch is pushed to ACC or ON,
the system will not arm.
Even when the driver and/or passengers are in
the vehicle, the system will activate with all
doors, hood, and trunk lid locked with the igni-
tion switch in the LOCK position. When pushing
the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position, the
system will be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the follow-
ing alarm:
● The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
● The alarm automatically turns off after ap-
proximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm is activated by:
●
Unlocking the door or opening the trunk lid
without using the button on the Intelligent
Key, the door handle request switch or the
mechanical key. (Even if the door is opened
by releasing the door inside lock knob, the
alarm will activate.)
● Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the unlock button on the Intelligent
Key, the door handle request switch or using
the mechanical key, or when the ignition switch
is pushed to the ACC or ON position.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by an INFINITI retailer.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered Intelligent Key. Never leave these
keys in the vehicle.

WARNING
The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves when
the buttons are pushed. The FAA advises that
the radio waves may affect aircraft navigation
and communication systems. Do not operate

It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, fuel-filler
door, activate the panic alarm and open the
windows by pushing the buttons on the Intelli-
gent Key from outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the Intelli-
gent Key is not left in the vehicle.
The LOCK/UNLOCK button on the Intelligent Key
can operate at a distance of approximately 33 ft
(10 m) from the vehicle. (The effective distance
depends upon the conditions around the ve-
hicle.)
As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be used with
one vehicle. For information concerning the
purchase and use of additional Intelligent Keys,
contact an INFINITI retailer. The lock and unlock buttons on the Intelligent
Key will not operate when:
●
the distance between the Intelligent Key and
the vehicle is over 33 ft (10 m).
● the Intelligent Key battery is discharged.
After locking with the remote keyless entry
function, pull the door handle to make sure the
doors are securely locked.
The LOCK/UNLOCK operating range varies de-
pending on the environment. To securely oper-
ate the lock and unlock buttons, approach the
vehicle to about 3 ft (1 m) from the door.

WARNING
●The sonar system is a convenience but it is
not a substitute for proper parking. Always
look around and check that it is safe to do so
before parking. Always move slowly.
● Read and understand the limitations of the
sonar system as contained in this section.
Inclement weather may affect the function of
the sonar system; this may include reduced
performance or a false activation.
● This system is not designed to prevent con-
tact with small or moving objects. ●
The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary objects
to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The sys-
tem will not detect small objects below the
bumper, and may not detect objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the bum-
per fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the
sensing zone may be altered causing inaccu-
rate measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
