trunk NISSAN MAXIMA 2019 Owner´s Manual

Your vehicle has two types of security sys-
tems:∙ Vehicle security system
∙ NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audible alarm signals if someone
opens the doors, trunk, or hood when the
system is armed. It is not, however, a mo-
tion detection type system that activates
when a vehicle is moved or when a vibra-
tion occurs. The system helps deter vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t 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 in the ve-
hicle, and always lock the vehicle when un-
attended. Be aware of your surroundings,
and park in secure, well-lit areas whenever
possible.
Many devices offering additional protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. A NISSAN dealer may also offer
such equipment. Check with your insur-
ance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various thef t protection
features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.
(The system can be
armed even if the windows are open.)
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the ve- hicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all
doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key or door handle re-
quest switch.
4. Confirm that the
security indica-
tor light stays on for about 30 seconds.
The vehicle security system is now pre-
armed. The vehicle security system will
automatically shif t into the armed
phase. The
security light begins
to flash once every three seconds. If
during the pre-armed phase one of the
following occurs, the system will not
arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the Intelligent Key or door request switch.
∙ Ignition switch is placed in 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
trunk lid 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.

SECURITY SYSTEMS
2-44Instruments and controls

The Rear Door Alert system functions un-
der certain conditions to indicate there
may be an object or passenger in the rear
seat(s). Check the seat(s) before exiting the
vehicle.
The Rear Door Alert system is initially dis-
abled. The driver can enable the system
using the vehicle information display. For
additional information, refer to “Vehicle in-
formation display warnings and indicators”
in this section.
When the system is enabled:∙ The system is activated when a rear door is opened and closed within
10 minutes of the vehicle being driven.
When the driver door is closed and the
system is activated, a visual message
appears in the vehicle information dis-
play. For additional information, refer to
“Rear Door Alert is activated” in this sec-
tion.
∙ If a rear door is opened and closed but the vehicle is not driven within approxi-
mately 10 minutes, the system will not
be activated. A rear door must be
opened and closed and the car driven
within 10 minutes for the system to ac-
tivate. When the Rear Door Alert system is acti-
vated:
∙ When the driver puts the vehicle in the P (Park) position, a notification message
appears in the vehicle information dis-
play with the options to “Dismiss Mes-
sage” or “Disable Alert” if desired.
∙ Select “Disable Alert” to temporarily disable for that stop.
∙ No selection or ‘Dismiss Message” will keep the alert enabled for that stop.
∙ If the alert is enabled when a driver exits the vehicle, a message will appear in the
vehicle information display that states
“Check Rear Seat for All Articles.”
If “Horn & Alert” setting is selected:
∙ An audible horn sound will occur af- ter a short time unless a rear door is
opened and closed within a short
time to deactivate the alert.
∙ If the doors are locked before the alert is deactivated by opening a rear
door, the horn will sound.
∙ If the trunk is opened before a rear door is opened, the horn will be de-
layed until af ter the trunk is closed. NOTE:
If “Alert Only ” setting is selected, the
message alert will still be shown in the
vehicle information display but the horn
will not sound.
WARNING
∙ If the driver selects “Disable Alert”, no
audible alert will be provided regard-
less of rear door open/close status.
∙ There may be times when there is an object or passenger in the rear seat(s)
but the audible alert does not sound.
For example, if rear seat passengers
enter or exit the vehicle during a trip.
∙ The system does not directly detect objects or passengers in the rear
seat(s). Instead, it can detect when a
rear door is opened and closed, indi-
cating that there may be something in
the rear seat(s).
NOTE:
There may be times when the horn
sounds but there are no objects or pas-
sengers in the rear seat(s).
For additional information, refer to “Rear
Door Alert is activated” in this section.
REAR DOOR ALERT
2-62Instruments and controls

The light illuminates when the trunk lid is
opened. When the trunk lid is closed, the
light goes off. For additional information,
refer to “Exterior and interior lights” in the
“Do-it-yourself ” section of this manual.The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-
held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
∙ Will operate most radio frequency de- vices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door
locks and security systems.
∙ Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is dis-
connected, HomeLink® will retain all
programming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming pro-
cedures (Example: new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased for
security purposes. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” in this section.WARNING
∙ Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards
became effective for opener models
manufactured af ter April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot de-
tect an object in the path of a closing
garage door and then automatically
stop and reverse does not meet cur-
rent federal safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
∙ During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will
open and close (if the transmitter is
within range). Make sure that people
or objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc., that you are programming.

NOTE:
If all doors are already unlocked, opening
the trunk does NOT require an Intelligent
Key to be in range of the trunk request
switch or rear of the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or strong radio waves are present
near the operating location, the Intelligent
Key operating range becomes narrower,
and the Intelligent Key may not function
properly.
The operating range is within 31.50 in
(80 cm) from each request switch
1.
If the Intelligent Key is too close to the door
glass, handle or rear bumper, the request
switches may not function.
When the Intelligent Key is within the oper-
ating range, it is possible for anyone, even
someone who does not carry the Intelli-
gent Key, to push the request switch to
lock/unlock the doors within range.
DOOR LOCKS/UNLOCKS

curely locked by testing them. ∙ To prevent the Intelligent Key from be-
ing lef t inside the vehicle, make sure you
