Your vehicle may have two types of security sys-

tems:

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

equipped)

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM

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. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The doors

can be locked with the key, power door lock

switch (if the door is opened, locked and

then closed), or with the keyfob.
Keyfob operation:
● Push the

button on the keyfob.

All doors lock. The hazard lights flash

twice and the horn beeps once to indicate

all doors are locked.

● When the

button is pushed with

all doors locked, the hazard lights flash

twice and the horn beeps once as a re-

minder that the doors are already locked.

The horn may or may not beep. Refer to

“Silencing the horn beep feature” (vehicles

without navigation system) in the “Pre-

driving checks and adjustments” section or

“Vehicle electronic systems” (vehicles with

navigation system) in the “Display screen,

heater, air conditioner and audio systems”

section.

4. Confirm that the

indicator light comes

on. The

light stays on for about 30

seconds. The vehicle security system is now

pre-armed. After about 30 seconds the ve-

hicle security system automatically shifts

into the armed phase. The

light begins

to flash once every 3 seconds. If, during the

30-second pre-arm time period, the door is

unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or the

ignition key is turned to ACC or ON, the

system will not arm.

If the key is turned slowly when locking

the door, the system may not arm. Fur-

thermore, if the key is turned beyond

the vertical position toward the unlock

position to remove the key, the system

may be disarmed when the key is re-
