SECURITY SYSTEMS
Instruments and controls2-35

The system helps detect 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 ignition, 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.

armed even if the windows are open.)
2. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK position and remove the key. 3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The
doors can be locked with:
∙ the power door lock switch (if the door is opened, locked and then
closed).
∙ the key — master or mechanical (In- telligent Key models).
∙ any request switch (Intelligent Key models).
∙ the key fob or Intelligent Key.

once every 3 seconds. If, during the 30-
second pre-arm time period, the driver’s
door is unlocked by the key, a request
switch, the key fob or Intelligent Key, or if
the ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
ON position, the system will not arm.
