The security indicator light, located on the meter panel, operates when the power switch is in the LOCK, OFF or ACC position. This is normal.

How to activate system

  1. Close all windows.

  2. Push the power switch to the OFF position.

  3. Close and lock all doors and the bonnet. The doors can be locked with the Intelligent Key system.

  4. Confirm that the security indicator light comes on. The security indicator light blinks rapidly for about 20 seconds and then blinks slowly. The system is now activated. If, during this 20-second time period, the door is unlocked by the integrated keyfob, the Intelligent Key system, or the power switch is turned to the ON position, the system will not activate.

Even when the driver and/or passengers are in the vehicle, the system will activate with all the doors locked and the power switch off. Place the power switch in the ON position to turn the system off.

If the system malfunctions, a short beep sounds 5 times when the system is activated. Have the system checked by a knowledgeable LEAF repairer such as a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer.

Theft warning system operation

The warning system will give the following alarm:

  • The hazard indicator blinks and the alarm sounds intermittently for approximately 30 seconds. (The alarm will repeat 8 times.)

  • The alarm automatically turns off after approximately 30 seconds. However, the alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with again.

The alarm is activated when:

  • Operating the door without using the integrated keyfob or the Intelligent Key system.

  • Operating the bonnet.

  • The volumetric sensing system (ultrasonic sensors) is triggered (when it is activated).

How to stop alarm

  • The alarm will stop by unlocking a door with the door handle request switch or the UNLOCK image button on the Intelligent Key or the door handle request switch.

  • The alarm will stop if the power switch is turned to the ON position.
