Your vehicle has two types of security
systems, as follows:
.Vehicle security system
. INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audio alarm signals if someone opens
the doors, hood, or liftgate 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
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
theft 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(s) in the
vehicle, and always lock it 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.
Your INFINITI retailer may also offer such
equipment. Check with your insurance com-
pany to see if you may be eligible for
discounts for various theft protection fea-
tures.
SIC2045
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.
The system can be armed even if the
windows are open.
2. Push the ignition switch to the OFF position.
3. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
4. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch, power door lock switch or me-
chanical key.

Security indicator light
The security indicator light is located on the
meter panel. It indicates the status of the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System.
The light blinks after the ignition switch was
in the ACC, OFF and LOCK position. This
function indicates the security systems
equipped on the vehicle are operational.
If the INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System is
malfunctioning, this light will remain on
while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
If the light still remains on and/or the
engine will not start, seek service for the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System assoon as possible. Please bring all registered
keys that you have. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

ously for more than 30 seconds.

HEADLIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL SWITCH

Daytime running light system
The daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to theposition for full illumination when driv-
ing at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights
do not illuminate. The daytime running lights
illuminate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on
until the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle are
not on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on
your headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself and
others.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights (low
beam) toward the turning direction to
improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS system
will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
. when the headlight switch is ON.
. when the shift lever is in any position
other than P (Park) or R (Reverse).
. when the vehicle is driven at above 3
MPH (5 km/h) for the left-side head-
light. Note that the right-side low beam
headlight will swivel but the left-side
headlight will not swivel when the vehicle
is below 3 MPH (5 km/h) and the
steering wheel is turned.
AFS will also adjust the headlight to a proper
axis automatically, depending on the number
of occupants in the vehicle, the load the
vehicle is carrying and the road conditions.
If the AFS OFF indicator light blinks after
the ignition switch has been pushed to the
ON position, this may indicate that the AFS
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. When the engine is started, the headlights will vibrate
to check the system condition. This is not a
malfunction.HEADLIGHT WASHER (if so
equipped)

headlight is on and the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
Pull the windshield washer switch toward
you. The headlight washer operates with the
windshield washer operation. This operation
activates once each time either the ignition
switch or the headlight switch is turned off
and on.

washer operates once at every fifth opera-
tion of the windshield washer.
CAUTION
.
Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for longer than 30 seconds.
