WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. For additional
information, refer to “Changing wheels
and tires” in the “Do-it-yourself” section of
this manual. Many factors including tire
inflation, alignment, driving habits and
road conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the tire
replacement indicator for a certain driving
distance does not mean your tires will lastthat long. Use the tire replacement indica-
tor as a guide only and always perform
regular tire checks. Failure to perform
regular tire checks, including tire pressure
checks could result in tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and may lead
to a collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.

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. Al-
ways secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your Intelligent Key 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 supply
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 features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.(The system can be
armed even if the windows are open.)
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
3. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request switch,
or mechanical key.
4. Confirm that the
security indicator
light stays on for about 30 seconds. The
vehicle security system is now pre-armed. The vehicle security system will automati-
cally shift into the armed phase. The
security light begins to flash once every
three seconds. If during the pre-armed
phase one of the following occurs, the sys-
tem will not arm:
● Any door is unlocked with the mechanical
key, the Intelligent Key or door request
switch.
● Ignition switch is placed in ACC or ON
position.
● Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all the doors, hood and
liftgate locked with the ignition switch
placed in the LOCK position. When
placing the ignition switch in the ACC
or ON position, the system will be re-
leased.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the following
alarm:
● The hazard lights blink (for non I-key vehicle)
or the headlights (for I-key vehicle) blink and
the horn sounds intermittently. ●
The alarm automatically turns off after a pe-
riod of time. However, the alarm reactivates if
the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm
can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door
by pressing the
button on the key fob
or placing the ignition switch in the ON or
ACC position.
The alarm is activated by:
● opening a door without using the key fob
(even if the door is unlocked by using the
inside lock knob or the power door lock
switch) .
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking a door or the
liftgate with the mechanical key, pressing
the
button on the Intelligent Key, or push-
ing the request switch on the driver’s or passen-
ger’s door with the Intelligent Key in range of the
door handle.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER

cedures:1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately
10 seconds.

ommends placing the registered key on a sepa-
rate key ring to avoid interference from other
devices.
