This warning appears in the vehicle information
display when the vehicle has been started using
the remote start function. To start the vehicle,
apply the brake and place the ignition switch in
the ON position.
Loose Fuel Cap
This warning appears when the fuel-filler cap is
not tightened correctly after the vehicle has been
refueled. See “Fuel-filler cap” in the “Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section of this manual.
Intelligent Key error
After the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, this light comes on for about 2 seconds
and then turns off.
The I-Key System Error message warns of a
malfunction with the Intelligent Key system. If the
light comes on while the engine is stopped, it may
be impossible to start the engine.
If the light comes on while the engine is running,
you can drive the vehicle. However in these
cases, contact an INFINITI retailer for repair as
soon as possible.Your vehicle has two types of security systems:
●Vehicle security system
●INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual and
audible alarm signals if someone opens the
doors, liftgate or hood 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 Intelligent Key in
the vehicle, 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 INFINITI retailer
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 and the moonroof.The
system can be armed even if the win-
dows and moonroof are open.
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
3. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock all
doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request switch
or power door lock switch.
Keyfob operation:
4. Confirm that the
indicator light comes
on. The
indicator stays illuminated for
a period of time indicating that the system is
in the pre-armed phase.
LIC2226
SECURITY SYSTEMS
2-24Instruments and controls

Theindicator light will blink every
three seconds once the security system is
armed.
If during the pre-armed phase one of the
following occurs, the system will not arm:
●Any door is unlocked with the mechanical
key
●A door is opened with the release button
with the intelligent key on your person
●The doors are unlocked using the unlock
button on the intelligent key
●The ignition switch is placed in the ACC
or ON position
●Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all the doors, hood and
liftgate are locked with the ignition
switch placed in the LOCK position.
When placing the ignition switch in the
ACC or ON position, the system will be
released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the following
alarm:
●The turn signals blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.●The alarm automatically turns off after a pe-
riod of time. However, the alarm reactivates if
the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm
can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door
or liftgate with the key, or by pressing
the
button on the Intelligent Key.
The alarm is activated by:
●opening the door or liftgate without using the
key or Intelligent Key (even if the door is
unlocked by releasing the door inside lock
switch) .
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s
door or the liftgate with the key, pressing
the
button on the Intelligent Key, or press-
ing the request switch on the driver’s or passen-
ger’s door with the Intelligent Key in range of the
door handle.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of a
registered INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for ex-
ample, when interference is caused by another
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key, an au-
tomated toll road device or automatic 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. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or
LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI rec-
ommends placing the registered INFINITI Vehicle
Immobilizer System key on a separate key ring to
avoid interference from other devices.

A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe place
(such as your wallet) , not in the vehicle. If you lose
your keys, see an INFINITI retailer for duplicates
by using the key number. INFINITI does not re-
cord key numbers so it is very important to keep
track of your key number plate.
A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, your INFINITI retailer
can duplicate it.
1. Intelligent Key (2 sets)
2. Mechanical key
3. Key number plate (1 plate)
INFINITI INTELLIGENT KEY
Your vehicle can only be driven with the Intelligent
Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s Intel-
ligent Key system components and INFINITI Ve-
hicle Immobilizer System components. As many
as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered and used
with one vehicle. The new keys must be regis-
tered by an INFINITI retailer prior to use with the
Intelligent Key system and INFINITI Vehicle Im-
mobilizer System of your vehicle. Since the reg-istration process requires erasing all memory in
the Intelligent Key components when registering
new keys, be sure to take all Intelligent Keys that
you have to the INFINITI retailer.CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occurrences
which will damage the Intelligent Key:
●Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which
contains electrical components, to
come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect the system
function.

KEYS
3-2Pre-driving checks and adjustments

INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM KEYS
You can only drive your vehicle using the master
or valet keys which are registered to the INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System components in your
vehicle. These keys have a transponder chip in
the key head.
The master key can be used for all the locks.
The valet key cannot be used for the glove box
lock.
To protect belongings when you leave a key with
someone, give them the valet key only.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is not
necessary when you need extra INFINITI Vehicle
Immobilizer System keys. Your retailer can dupli-
cate your existing key. As many as five INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System keys can be used
with one vehicle. You should bring all INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System keys that you have to
your INFINITI retailer for registration. This is be-
cause the registration process will erase the
memory of all key codes previously registered
into the INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System. Af-
ter the registration process, these components
will only recognize keys coded into the INFINITIVehicle Immobilizer System during registration.
Any key that is not given to your retailer at the time
of registration will no longer be able to start your
vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect system function.When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors can not be opened
using the inside or outside door handles. The
doors must be unlocked to open the doors.
WARNING
●Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally open-
ing the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
●Before opening any door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
●Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved in seri-
ous accidents.

INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered key.

automated payment device on the key ring. Re-
start 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 5 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
