● Any doors are not closed securely when

locking the doors.

When the buzzer sounds, be sure to check both

the vehicle and the Intelligent Key. See “Intelli-

gent Key system” in the “Pre-driving checks and

adjustments” section.

Light reminder chime

With the ignition switch in the OFF position, a

chime sounds when the driver’s door is opened if

the headlights or parking lights are on.
Turn the headlight control switch off before leav-

ing the vehicle.

Parking brake reminder chime

A chime sounds if the parking brake is set and the

vehicle is driven. The chime will stop if the parking

brake is released or the vehicle speed returns to

zero.

Your vehicle may have two types of security sys-

tems:

● Vehicle security system (if so equipped)
● NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM (if so

equipped)

The vehicle security system provides visual and

audible alarm signals if someone opens the doors

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 components in all situations. Al-

ways secure your vehicle even if parking for a

brief period. Never leave your keys in the ignition,

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. Your NISSAN dealer

may also offer such equipment. 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. (The system can be

armed even if the windows are open.)

2. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK posi-

tion and remove the key.

3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The doors

can be locked with:
● the power door lock switch (if the door is

opened, locked and then closed).

● the key — master or mechanical (Intelli-

gent Key models).
