Your vehicle may have two types of security sys-
tems:

● NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System (if so

equipped)

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. 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. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Silencing the
horn beep feature” in the “Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section of this
manual.

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
vehicle 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 driver’s
door is unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or
the ignition switch is placed in ACC or ON
position, the system will not arm.
