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 SYSTEM

The vehicle security system provides
visual and audio alarm signals if someone
opens the doors, hood, or liftgate when
the system is armed. It is not, however, a
motion detection type system that acti-
vates when a vehicle is moved 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 com-
ponents in all situations. Always secure
your vehicle even if parking for a brief
period. Never leave your Intelligent Key(s)
in the vehicle, and always lock it when
unattended. Be aware of your surround-
ings, 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 speci-
alty shops. Your 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 features.

SECURITY SYSTEMS

SIC2045

How to arm the vehicle security
system

1.

Close all windows.

The system can be armed even if the
windows are open.

2.

Push the ignition switch to the OFF
position.

3. Remove the Intelligent Key from the

vehicle.

4. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock

all doors. The doors can be locked
with the Intelligent Key, door handle
request switch, power door lock
switch or mechanical key.

5. Confirm that the security indicator

light comes on. The security indicator
light stays on for about 30 seconds.
The vehicle security system is now
pre-armed. After about 30 seconds
the vehicle security system automati-
cally shifts into the armed phase. The
security light begins to flash once
every approximately 3 seconds. If,
during this 30-second pre-arm time
period, the door is unlocked, or the
ignition switch is pushed to ACC or
ON, the system will not arm.

Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all doors, hood, and lift-
gate locked with the ignition switch in
the LOCK position. When pushing the
ignition switch to the ACC or ON posi-
tion, 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.

. The alarm automatically turns off

after approximately 50 seconds. How-
ever, the alarm reactivates if the
vehicle is tampered with again.

The alarm is activated by:
. Unlocking the door or opening the

liftgate without using the button on
the Intelligent Key, the door handle
request switch or the mechanical key.
(Even if the door is opened by releas-
ing the door inside lock knob, the
alarm will activate.)

. Opening the hood.

How to stop an activated alarm

The alarm will stop when a door is
unlocked by pushing the unlock button
on the Intelligent Key, the door handle
request switch or using the mechanical
key, or when the ignition switch is pushed
to the ACC or ON position.

If the system does not operate as
described above, it is recommended
you have it checked by a NISSAN dealer.

the meter panel. It indicates the status of
the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System.

The light blinks after the ignition switch
was in the ACC, OFF and LOCK position.
This function indicates the security sys-
tems equipped on the vehicle are opera-
tional.

WARNING

In freezing temperatures the washer
solution may freeze on the window
and obscure your vision which may
lead to an accident. Warm the win-
dow with the defroster before you
wash the window.

CAUTION

. Do not operate the washer con-

tinuously for more than 30 sec-
onds.

. Do not operate the washer if the

reservoir tank is empty.

. Do not fill the window washer

reservoir tank with washer fluid
concentrates at full strength.
Some methyl alcohol based
washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if
spilled while filling the window
washer reservoir tank.

. Pre-mix washer fluid concen-

trates with water to the manu-
facturer’s recommended levels
before pouring the fluid into the
window washer reservoir tank. Do

not use the window washer re-
servoir tank to mix the washer
fluid concentrate and water.

If the wiper operation is interrupted by

When the speed sensing wiper interval
function is turned on, the intermittent
operation speed varies in accordance
with the vehicle speed. (For example,
when the vehicle speed is high, the
intermittent operation speed will be fas-
ter.) To turn this function on and off, see
NissanConnect® Owner’s Manual.

AUTO (Type B) (if so equipped) — For
models with the rain-sensing auto wiper
system, see “Rain-sensing auto wiper
system” (P.2-34).

RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER SYS-
TEM (if so equipped)

The rain-sensing auto wiper system can
automatically turn on the wipers and
adjust the wiper speed depending on
the rainfall and the vehicle speed by using
the rain sensor located on the upper part
of the windshield.

To set the rain-sensing auto wiper sys-
tem, push the lever down to the AUTO
position

. The wiper will sweep once

while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.

The rain sensor sensitivity level can be
adjusted by turning the knob toward the
front

(High) or toward the rear

(Low).

. High — High sensitive operation

. Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper
system off, push up the lever to the OFF
position, or pull down the lever to the LO
or HI position.

CAUTION

Do not touch the rain sensor and
around it when the wiper switch is in
the AUTO position and the ignition
switch is in the ON position. The
wipers may operate unexpectedly
and cause to an injury or may da-
mage a wiper.

. The rain-sensing auto wipers are

intended for use during rain. If the
switch is left in the AUTO position,
the wipers may operate unexpect-
edly when dirt, fingerprints, oil film
or insects are stuck on or around the
sensor. The wipers may also operate
when exhaust gas or moisture affect
the rain sensor.

. The rain-sensing auto wipers may

not operate if rain does not hit the
rain sensor even if it is raining.

. When the windshield glass is coated

with water repellent, the speed of

the rain-sensing auto wipers may be
higher even though the amount of
the rainfall is small.

. Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing

auto wiper system when you use a
car wash.

. Using genuine wiper blades is re-

commended for proper operation of
the rain-sensing auto wiper system.
