Your vehicle has two types of security sys-
tems:
• Vehicle security system
• NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audible alarm signals if someone
opens the doors, lif tgate or the hood when
the system is armed. It is not, however, a
motion detection type system that acti-
vates when a vehicle is moved or when a
vibration occurs.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 Intelligent Key in the ve-
hicle, and always lock the vehicle when un-
attended. 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 and the moonroof (if
so equipped). The system can be
armed even if the windows and moon-
roof are open.
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and lif tgate. 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. Theindicator stays
illuminated for a period of time indicat-
ing 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:
• A door is opened with the release button with the Intelligent Key on your person.
• The doors are unlocked using the unlock button on the Intelligent Key.
• The ignition switch is placed in the ACC or ON position.

To deactivate:
Press and hold theandbut-
tons for at least 2 seconds. The hazard
indicator lights will flash three times to con-
firm that the answer back horn feature has
been deactivated.
To activate:
Press and hold the
andbut-
tons for at least 2 seconds once more.
The hazard indicator lights will flash once
and the horn will sound once to confirm
that the horn beep feature has been reac-
tivated.
Deactivating the horn beep feature does
not silence the horn if the alarm is trig-
gered.
Intelligent Key button operation
light
The light blinks only when you press any
button on the Intelligent Key. The light illu-
mination only signifies that the key fob has
transmitted a signal. You may look and/or
listen to verif y that the vehicle has per-
formed the intended operation. The num-
ber of blinks identifies each registered key
(i.e. 1 blink = 1st key,...,4 blinks = 4th key) for
your own identification purposes.
If the light does not blink, your battery may
be too weak to communicate to the ve- hicle. If this occurs, the battery may need to
be replaced. For additional information re-
garding the replacement of a battery, refer
to “Battery replacement” in the “Do-it-
yourself ” section of this manual.
WARNING SIGNALS
To help prevent the vehicle from moving
unexpectedly by erroneous operation of
the Intelligent Key or to help prevent the
vehicle from being stolen, a chime or
buzzer sounds from inside and outside the
vehicle and a warning is displayed in the
instrument panel.
When a chime or beep sounds or a warning
is displayed, be sure to check the vehicle
and the Intelligent Key.
For additional information, refer to the
“Troubleshooting guide” in this section and
“Vehicle information display” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Verif y the location of all Intelligent Keys that
are programmed for the vehicle. If another
Intelligent Key is in range or inside the ve-
hicle, the vehicle system may respond dif-
ferently than expected.

3-16Pre-driving checks and adjustments
NOTE:
To open, close or reverse the power lif t-
gate, the shif t lever must be in P (Park).
Also, the power lif tgate will not operate if
battery voltage is low.
Power Open:
The power lif tgate automatically moves
from the fully closed position to the fully
open position in approximately5–8sec-
onds. The power open feature can be acti-
vated by the switch on the Intelligent Key,
the instrument panel switch, the lif tgate
opener switch
OA. A chime sounds to indi-
cate the power open sequence has been
started.
• The lif tgate can be opened by the instru-ment panel switch, lif tgate opener switch
OAwith the Intelligent Key in operating
range and lif tgate button on the key fob
(if so equipped), even if the vehicle is
locked. The lif tgate will individually unlock
and open. Once the lif tgate is closed, the
vehicle will remain in the unlock status.
• The Intelligent Key button must be held for 1 second before the lif tgate opens.
• The lif tgate must be unlocked to open it with the lif tgate opener switch
OAif the
Intelligent Key is not in operating range. Power Close:
The power lif tgate automatically moves
from the fully open position to the second-
ary position. When the lif tgate reaches the
secondary position, the cinching motor en-
gages and pulls the lif tgate to its primary
latch position. Power close takes approxi-
matel
y7–10sec onds. The power close
feature can be activated by the switch on
the Intelligent Key, the instrument panel
and the lif tgate close switch
OB. A chime
sounds to indicate the power close se-
quence has been started.

Before performing the kicking motion,
steady your stance to prevent any loss
of balance. Also, while making the kick-
ing motion, take caution around hot ex-
haust system parts. Otherwise, there
may be danger of injury.WARNING
Prevent unintentional lif tgate
opening/closing. There may be condi-
tions when opening/closing the lif t-
gate is not desired. Keep the Intelligent
Key out of range of the lif tgate, (31.5 in
or 80 cm), when washing or working
around the back of the vehicle.
CAUTION
• Interference or malfunction can be
caused by parking in close proximity
to radio or satellite towers.
• Intelligent Key interference could be
caused if you have your key fob
stored next to your cell phone or any
RF-enabled smart card. For addi-
tional information, refer to “NISSAN
Intelligent Key®” in this section.
LIFTGATE RELEASE

closed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
• Do not drive with the lif tgate open.
This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle.
For additional information, refer to
“Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)” in
the “Starting and driving” section of
this manual.
• To avoid personal injury, do not at-
tempt to activate the power lif tgate
if one or both of the lif tgate struts are
removed.LPD2771
