NISSAN KICKS 2019 Owner´s Manual

NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
(NATS) (if so equipped)
The NISSAN Anti-Thef t System will not al-
low the engine to start without the use of a
registered NATS key.
If the engine does not start using the reg-
istered NATS key, it may be due to interfer-
ence caused by:∙ Another NATS key
∙ Automated toll road device
∙ Automated payment device
∙ Other devices that transmit similar sig- nals
Start the engine using the following proce-
dure: 1. Remove any items that may be causing the interference away from the NATS
key.
2. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po- sition for approximately 5 seconds.
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately
10 seconds.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 again.
5. Start the engine. 6. Repeat the steps above until all pos-
sible interferences are eliminated.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the regis-
tered NATS key separate from other de-
vices to avoid interference.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
will not allow the engine to start without
the use of a registered key.
If the engine fails to start using a registered
key (for example, when interference is
caused by another registered key, an auto-
mated toll road device or automatic pay-
ment device on the key ring), restart the
engine using the following procedures: 1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po- sition for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to 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 in-
terference) separate from the regis-
tered key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, NISSAN
recommends placing the registered key on
a separate key ring to avoid interference
from other devices.
