The integrated keyfob will not function under the fol-
lowing conditions:
When the distance between the integrated key-
fob and vehicle is more than approximately 5 m
(15 ft).
When the integrated keyfob battery is
discharged.
When the key is in the ignition switch.
All doors can be locked or unlocked from the out-
side by pressing the “LOCK”
or “UNLOCK”button on the integrated keyfob.
For Super Lock system models only (RHD mod-
els):
When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the
doors with the integrated keyfob. Doing so will
trap the occupants, since the Super Lock system
prevents the doors from being opened from the
inside.
WARNING
Only operate the integrated keyfob lock button in
full and clear view of the vehicle to prevent any-
body being trapped inside the vehicle.
CAUTION
When locking the doors using the integrated
keyfob, be sure not to leave the key in the
vehicle.
Always remove the ignition key or Intelligent
Key, close all windows before operating the
keyfob door lock system.
Ensure that the driver’s door is securely
closed before operating the integrated keyfob
door lock system for correct operation of the
system.
Do not allow the integrated keyfob, which
contains electrical components, to come into
contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.
Do not drop the integrated keyfob.
Do not strike the integrated keyfob sharply
against another object.
Do not place the integrated keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where temperatures
exceed 60°C (140°F).
If a integrated keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN rec-
ommends erasing the ID code of that integrated
keyfob from the vehicle. This may prevent the unau-
thorised use of the integrated keyfob to unlock the
vehicle. For information regarding the erasing pro-
cedure, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
For information regarding the replacement of a bat-
tery, see “Battery” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section.

The alarm system provides visual and audible alarm
signals if parts of the vehicle are disturbed.
How to arm the alarm system
1. Close all doors, windows, back door and bon-net.
2. Lock the vehicle using the keyfob (lock button), for additional information, see “Integrated key-
fob/remote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section.
NOTE
If the vehicle is not fully locked, a door/bonnet/
back door is open, or the ignition switch is in the
ON position (after arming the system), the buzzer
will sound. After correctly closing, the buzzer will
stop.
Alarm system operation
The system will give the following alarm:
The siren sounds intermittently and all direction
indicators will flash.
The alarm automatically turns off after 28 sec-
onds.
The alarm is activated when:
The volumetric sensing system (ultrasonic sen-
sors) is triggered.
Any door/the back door is opened.
The bonnet is opened.
The ignition circuit is turned on without the own-
er’s key being used.
The alarm system will stop when:
The vehicle is unlocked using the keyfob unlock
button.
The ignition switch or ignition knob is turned to
the ON position with a registered NATS key.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by your NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
Ultrasonic sensors (where fitted)
The ultrasonic sensors (volumetric sensing) detect
movements in the passenger’s compartment. When
the alarm system is set to the armed position, it will
automatically switch on the ultrasonic sensors.
It is possible to exclude the ultrasonic sensors (e.g.
when leaving pets inside the car).

The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
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 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.
