Your vehicle has two types of security
systems, as follows:
.Vehicle security system
. INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audio alarm signals if someone opens
the doors, hood, or trunk lid 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 compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your Intelligent Key(s) in the
vehicle, and always lock it 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 INFINITI retailer may also offer such
equipment. Check with your insurance com-
pany to see if you may be eligible for
discounts for various theft protection fea-
tures.

How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.The system can be armed even if the
windows are open.
2. Push the ignition switch to the OFF position.
3. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
4. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch, power door lock switch or me-
chanical key. 5. Confirm that the security indicator light
comes on. The security indicator 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 security
light begins to flash once every approxi-
mately 3 seconds. If, during this 30-
second pre-arm time period, the door is
unlocked, or the ignition switch is pushed
to ACC or ON, the system will not arm.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all doors, hood, and trunk lid locked
with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. When pushing the ignition switch
to the ACC or ON position, the system will
be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
. The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
. The alarm automatically turns off after
approximately 1 minute. However, the
alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tam-
pered with again.
The alarm is activated by: .
Unlocking the door or opening the trunk
lid without using the button on the
Intelligent Key, the door handle request
switch, one touch unlock sensor or the
mechanical key. (Even if the door is
opened by releasing the door inside lock
knob, the alarm will activate.)
. Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the UNLOCK button on the Intelli-
gent Key, pushing the door handle request
switch, touching the one touch unlock
sensor or using the mechanical key. The
alarm will not stop if the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position.
If the system does not operate as described
above, it is recommended you have it
checked by an INFINITI retailer.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
will not allow the INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
®System to start without the use of
the registered Intelligent Key. Never leave
these keys in the vehicle.
