Light reminder chime

With the ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-

opened if the headlights or parking lights are on.

Turn the headlight control switch off before leav-
ing the vehicle.

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

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. Place the ignition switch in 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).
