on for about 30 seconds. The vehicle
security system is now pre-armed. After
about 30 seconds the vehicle security
system automatically shifts into the armed

once every approximately 3 seconds. If,
during this 30-second pre-arm time period,
the door is unlocked, or the ignition switch is

to the ACC or ON position, the system will
be released.
Vehicle security system activationThe vehicle security system will give the follow-
ing alarm:
. The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
. The alarm automatica lly turns off after
approximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm is activated by:
.
Unlocking the door or opening the lift gate
without using the button on the Intelligent
Key, the request switch or the key. (Even if
the door is opened by releasing the door
inside lock knob, the alarm will activate.)
. Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarmThe alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the unlock button
on the Intelligent
Key, pushing the request switch or using the key.
The alarm will not stop if the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position.
If the system does not operate as de-

XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so equipped)
WARNINGHIGH VOLTAGE
. When xenon headlights are on, they
produce a high voltage. To prevent
an electric shock, never attempt to
modify or disassemble. Always have
your xenon headlights replaced at a
NISSAN dealer.
. Xenon headlights provide consider-
ably more light than conventional
headlights. If they are not correctly
aimed, they might temporarily blind
an oncoming driver or the driver
ahead of you and cause a serious
accident. If headlights are not aimed
correctly, immediately take your ve-
hicle to a NISSAN dealer and have
the headlights adjusted correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially turned on,
its brightness or color varies slightly. However,
the color and brightness will soon stabilize.
. The life of xenon headlights will be
shortened by frequent on-off opera-
tion. It is generally desirable not to turn off the headlights for short intervals
(for example, when the vehicle stops at
a traffic signal) . Even when the daytime
running lights are active (Canada only) ,
the xenon headlights do not turn on.
This way the life of the xenon head-
lights is not reduced.
. If the xenon headlight bulb is close to
burning out, the brightness will drasti-
cally decrease, the light will start
blinking, or the color of the light will
become reddish. If one or more of the
above signs appear, contact a NISSAN
dealer.
