alarm NISSAN 350Z 2007 Z33 Owners Manual

soon as possible if the warning sound is heard.
Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:

Vehicle Security System

NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEMThe vehicle security system provides visual and
audible alarm signals if someone opens the
doors or rear hatch/trunk lid when the system is
armed. It is not, however, a motion detection
type system that activates when a vehicle ismoved 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.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your keys 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 sup-
ply stores and specialty shops. A NISSAN dealer
may also offer such equipment. Check with your
insurance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various theft protection fea-
tures.

the rear hatch/trunk lid), release the rear
hatch/trunk lid and activate the panic alarm by
using the keyfobfrom outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfobcan operate at a distance of approxi-
mately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the purchase
and use of additional keyfobs, contact a NISSAN
dealer.

against another object.

Do not place the keyfob for an ex-
tended period in an area where tem-
peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).
If a keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of that

erasing procedure, please contact a
NISSAN dealer.
