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 light
comes 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.

Instruments and controls2-27
The flasher can be actuated with the ignition
switch in any position.
Some state laws may prohibit the use of the
hazard warning flasher switch while driving.To sound the horn, push the center pad area of
the steering wheel.
WARNING
Do not disassemble the horn. Doing so could
affect proper operation of the supplemental
front air bag system. Tampering with the
supplemental front air bag system may result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use the seat
heater if you or the occupants cannot monitor
elevated seat temperatures or have an inability
to feel pain in body parts that contact the seat.
Use of the seat heater by such people could
result in serious injury.
CAUTION
●The battery could run down if the seat heater
is operated while the engine is not running.
● Do not use the seat heater for extended pe-
riods or when no one is using the seat.
● Do not put anything on the seat which insu-
lates heat, such as a blanket, cushion, seat
cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.
● Do not place anything hard or heavy on the
seat or pierce it with a pin or similar object.
This may result in damage to the heater.
● Any liquid spilled on the heated seat should
be removed immediately with a dry cloth.
● When cleaning the seat, never use gasoline,
thinner, or any similar materials.SIC3312
