under high temperature conditions (over  
approximately 40°C (104°F) and then  
started, the TSR system may be deacti-  
vated automatically. The “Unavailable  
high cabin temperature” warning mes-  
sage will appear in the vehicle informa-  
tion display.  
The TSR uses the same multi-sensing

located in front of the interior rearview  
mirror. For maintenance of the camera,  
see “System maintenance” (P.5-39).

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM  
If the TSR "Malfunction" warning mes-  
sage appears, pull off the road at a safe  
location and stop the vehicle. Turn the  
engine off and restart the engine. If the  
TSR "Malfunction" message continues to  
appear, have the system checked by a  
NISSAN dealer.  
The vehicle security system provides  
visual and audio alarm signals if someone  
opens the doors, hood (if so equipped)  
and liftgate when the system is armed. It  
is not, however, a motion detection type  
system that activates when a vehicle is  
moved or when a vibration occurs.  
The system helps deter vehicle theft but  
2-46 Instruments and controls  
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 keys in the  
vehicle, and always lock it when unat-  
tended. Be aware of your surroundings,  
and park in secure, well-lit areas when-  
ever 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.
