BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE 4. Push the ignition switch while depressing the brake pedal within 10 seconds after the chime sounds. The engine will start. After step 3 is performed, when the ignition switch is pushed without depressing the brake pedal, the ignition switch position will change to "ACC". NOTE: ● When the ignition switch is pushed to the "ACC" or "ON" position or the engine is started by the above procedures, the NISSAN Intelligent Key® system warning light may blink in yellow (on the meter) even if the NISSAN Intelligent Key® is inside the vehicle. This is not a malfunction. To stop the warning light from blinking, touch the ignition switch with the NISSAN Intelligent Key® again. ● If the NISSAN Intelligent Key® system warning light in the meter is blinking in green, replace the battery as soon as possible. See "Battery replacement" in the "Maintenance and do-it-yourself" section. NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer system will not allow the engine to start without the use of the registered key. If the engine fails to start using a registered key (for example, when interference is caused by another registered key, an automated toll road device or automatic payment device on the key ring), restart the engine using the following procedure: 1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for approximately 5 seconds. 2. Place the ignition switch in 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 interference) separate from the registered 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. ● Make sure the area around the vehicle is clear. ● Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant, brake and clutch fluid(if so equipped), and windshield-washer fluid as frequently as possible, or at least whenever you refuel. ● Check that all windows and lights are clean. ● Visually inspect tires for their appearance and condition. Also check tires for proper inflation. ● Lock all doors. ● Position seat and adjust head restraints. ● Adjust inside and outside mirrors. ● Fasten seat belts and ask all passengers to do likewise. ● Check the operation of warning lights when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. See "Warning/indicator lights and audible reminders" in the "Instruments and controls" section of this manual. 5-12 Starting and driving
