Indicators for maintenance
These indicators appear when the cus-
tomer set distance comes for replacing
tires or other maintenance items. You can

WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, in-
cluding tire pressure checks. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Changing
wheels and tires” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual. Many factors including tire in-
flation, alignment, driving habits and
road conditions affect tire wear and
when tires should be replaced. Setting
the tire replacement indicator for a cer-
tain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the tire
replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious ve-
hicle damage could occur and may lead
to a collision, which could result in seri-
ous personal injury or death. For scheduled maintenance items and in-
tervals, refer to the NISSAN Service and
Maintenance Guide.

tems, as follows:
• Vehicle security system
• NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security status is shown by the secu-
rity indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audio alarm signals if someone opens
the doors or rear hatch when the system is
armed. It is not, however, a motion detec-
tion type system that activates when a ve-
hicle is moved or when a vibration occurs. The system helps deter vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t 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 it when it is lef t 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 certified LEAF dealer
may also offer such equipment. Check with
your insurance company to see if you may
be eligible for discounts for various thef t
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 power switch in the LOCK or OFF position and remove the Intelligent
Key from the vehicle.
