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 vehicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all
doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key or door handle request
switch.
4. Confirm that the
security indicator
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 follow-
ing 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 plac-
ing 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 headlights blink and the horn sounds intermittently but synchronously.
• The alarm automatically turns off af ter a period of time. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with
again.
The alarm is activated by:
• opening any door or hood without using the Intelligent Key (even if the door is un-
locked by releasing the door inside lock
knob).
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by pressing thebutton on the Intelligent Key, or pushing the
request switch on the driver's or passen-
ger's door with the Intelligent Key in range
of the door handle.

sects are stuck on or around the sen-
sor. The wipers may also operate
when exhaust gas or moisture affect

with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be
higher even though the amount of
the rainfall is small.

auto wiper system when you use a
car wash.
• The rain-sensing auto wipers may
not operate if rain does not hit the
rain sensor even if it is raining.
•
Using Genuine NISSAN wiper blades is
