VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audible alarm signals if someone
opens the doors or lif tgate when the sys-
tem is armed. It is not, however, a motion
detection type system that activates when
a vehicle is moved or when a vibration oc-
curs. The system helps deter vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t of interior or exterior vehicle compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your keys 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 protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. A NISSAN dealer may also offer
such equipment. Check with your insur-
ance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various thef t 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 keys from the vehicle.
3. Close all doors and lif tgate. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with
the key fob (if so equipped), Intelligent
Key (if so equipped), door handle re-
quest switch, or mechanical key.

tor light stays on for about 30 seconds.

phase. The
security light begins
to flash once every three seconds. If
during the pre-armed phase one of the
following occurs, the system will not
arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the key fob (if so equipped), the Intelligent Key (if so
equipped), mechanical key, or door re-
quest switch.
∙ Ignition switch is placed in the ON posi- tion.
∙ Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all the doors, hood and
lif tgate locked with the ignition
switch placed in the LOCK position.

following alarm:
∙ The headlights or turn lamps blink and the horn sounds intermittently but syn-
chronously.
∙ The alarm automatically turns off af ter a period of time. However, the alarm

low the engine to start without the use of a

If the engine does not start using the reg-
istered NATS key, it may be due to interfer-
ence caused by:

Start the engine using the following proce-
dure: 1. Remove any items that may be causing the interference away from the NATS
