WARNING
When the high fluid temperature protec-
tion mode operation occurs, vehicle speed
may be gradually reduced. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic,
which could increase the chance of a colli-
sion. Be especially careful when driving. If
necessary, pull to the side of the road at a
safe place and allow the transmission to re-
turn to normal operation; or have it re-
paired if necessary.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 (if
so equipped). (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.

4. Confirm that thesecurity indicator
light stays on for about 30 seconds. The
vehicle security system is now pre-
armed. The vehicle security system will
automatically 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 system will not arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the Intelligent Key or door request switch.
∙ Ignition switch is placed in AUTO ACC or ON position.
∙ Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate with all the doors, hood and liftgate
locked with the ignition switch placed in
the LOCK position. When placing the ig-
nition switch in the AUTO ACC or ON
position, the system will be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the fol-
lowing alarm:
∙ The turn signals blink and the horn sounds intermittently. ∙ The alarm automatically turns off after a
period of time. However, the alarm reac-
tivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by press-
ing the
button on the Intelligent
Key.
The alarm is activated by:
∙ Opening the door or liftgate without us- ing the Intelligent Key (even if the door is
unlocked by releasing the door inside lock
switch).
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s
door or the liftgate by pressing the
but-
ton on the Intelligent Key or pushing the re-
quest switch on the driver’s or passenger’s
door with the Intelligent Key in range of the
door handle.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will
not allow the engine to start without the use
of a registered INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer
System key. If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key, an automated toll road device or auto-
matic payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po- sition for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the de- vice (which may have caused the inter-
ference) separate from the registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System key on a separate
key ring to avoid interference from other de-
vices.
