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 keys 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 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.

hicle security system is now pre-armed.

onds. If, during the 30-second pre-arm
time period, the driver's door is unlocked

2-50Instruments and controls

When the Rear Door Alert system is acti-
vated and a driver exits the vehicle af ter
arriving at a destination:
• When the driver puts the vehicle in the P(Park) position, a message appears in the
vehicle information display for a driver
to “Dismiss Message” or “Disable Alert” if
desired.
• With the system enabled, when the driver exits the vehicle, an audible alert (horn
sound) will occur unless a rear door is
opened and closed within a short time to
deactivate the alert.
• If the doors are locked before the alert is deactivated by opening a rear door, the
horn will sound.
• If the audible horn alert occurs, a mes- sage will also appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display that states, “Check Rear
Seat for All Articles”.
WARNING
• If the driver selects “Disable Alert”, no
audible alert will be provided regard-
less of rear door open/close status. • There may be times when there is an
object or passenger in the rear seat(s)
but the audible alert does not sound.
For example, this may occur if rear seat
passengers enter or exit the vehicle
during a trip.
• The system does not directly detect
objects or passengers in the rear
seat(s). Instead, it can detect when a
rear door is opened and closed, indicat-
ing that there may be something in the
rear seat(s).

There may be times when the horn
sounds but there are no objects or pas-
sengers in the rear seat(s).
