Your vehicle may have two types of security
systems:

∙ 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 or liftgate when the sys-
tem is armed. It is not, however, a motion
detection type system that activates when
a vehicle is moved or when a vibration oc-
curs.

LIC2385

SECURITY SYSTEMS

2-40

Instruments and controls

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 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 theft protection
features.

How to arm the vehicle security
system

1. Close all windows. (The system can be

armed even if the windows are open.)

2. Remove the keys from the vehicle.

3. Close all doors and liftgate. Lock all

doors. The doors can be locked with
the key fob (if so equipped), Intelligent
Key (if so equipped), door handle re-
quest switch, or mechanical key (if so
equipped).

4. Confirm that the

security indica-

tor 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 key fob (if

so equipped), the Intelligent Key (if so
equipped),

mechanical

key

(if

equipped), or door request switch.

∙ Ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-

tion.

∙ Even when the driver and/or passen-

gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all the doors, hood and
liftgate

locked

with

the

ignition

switch placed in the LOCK position.
When placing the ignition switch in
the ON position, the system will be
released.

Vehicle security system activation

The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:

∙ The turn signals blink and the horn

sounds intermittently.

∙ The alarm automatically turns off after

a period of time. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered
with again. The alarm can be shut off by
unlocking the driver’s door or liftgate
with the key (if so equipped) or by press-
ing the

button on the Intelligent

Key.

Instruments and controls

2-41

The alarm is activated by:

∙ Opening the door or liftgate without us-

ing the key (if so equipped) or Intelligent
