Your vehicle has two types of security sys-
tems:∙ Vehicle security system
∙ INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audible alarm signals if someone opens
the doors, liftgate or hood 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 can-
not 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 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. An
INFINITI retailer may also offer such equip-
ment. 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 and the moonroof.
The system can be armed even if the
windows and moonroof are open.
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the ve- hicle.
3. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch or power door lock switch. Key fob operation:
4. Confirm that the
indicator light
comes on. The
indicator stays illu-
minated for a period of time indicating
that the system is in the pre-armed
phase.
The
indicator light will blink every
3 seconds once the security system is
armed.
If during the pre-armed phase one of the
following occurs, the system will not
arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the me- chanical key
∙ A door is opened with the release but- ton with the Intelligent Key on your
person
∙ The doors are unlocked using the un- lock button on the Intelligent Key
∙ The ignition switch is placed in the ON position

Autolight system
The autolight system allows the headlights to
turn on and off automatically. The autolight
system can:∙ Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail, license plate and instrument panel lights
automatically when it is dark.
∙ Turn off all the lights (except daylight running lights) when it is light.
∙ Keep all the lights on for a period of time after you place the ignition switch in the
OFF position and all doors are closed. NOTE:

delay for autolight shutoff can be adjusted.

2. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion.
3. The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and a door is opened and left
open, the headlights remain on for a period of
time. If another door is opened while the
headlights are on, then the timer is reset.

autolight sensor reacts as if it is dark out and
the headlights will illuminate. If this occurs
while parked with the engine off and the ig-
nition switch placed in the ON position, your
vehicle’s battery could become discharged.
