SYSTEMThe Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System will
not allow the engine to start without the use of
the registered Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer Sys-
tem key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered
Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key,
an automated toll road device or automated
payment device on the key ring), restart the
engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK
position, and wait approximately 10 sec-
onds.3. Repeat step 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered Nissan Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, NISSAN
recommends placing the registered Nissan
Vehicle Immobilizer System key on a separate
key ring to avoid interference from other de-
vices.

It is possible to lock/unlock all doors and
activate the panic alarm by using the keyfob
from outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfob can operate at a distance of ap-
proximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the condi-
tions around the vehicle.)
As many as four keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the pur-
chase and use of additional keyfobs, contact
your NISSAN dealer.
The keyfob will not function when:
Ithe battery is dead,
Ithe distance between the vehicle and the
keyfob is over 33 ft (10 m).
