Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System (IVIS ) - NATS

IVIS (INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System-NATS) has the following immobilizer functions:
- Since only IVIS (NATS) ignition keys, whose ID nos. have been registered into the ECM and IMMU of IVIS (NATS), allow the engine to run, operation of a stolen vehicle without a IVIS (NATS) registered key is prevented by IVIS (NATS).
That is to say, IVIS (NATS) will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key of IVIS (NATS).
- All of the originally supplied ignition key IDs (except for card plate key) have been IVIS (NATS) registered. If requested by the vehicle owner, a maximum of five key IDs can be registered into the IVIS (NATS) components.
- The security indicator blinks when the ignition switch is in "OFF" or "ACC" position. Therefore, IVIS (NATS) warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with the antitheft system.
- When IVIS (NATS) detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition key is in the "ON" position.
- IVIS (NATS) trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other IVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs must be carried out using CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II IVIS (NATS) software. Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS) initialization and IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-II operation manual, IVIS/NVIS.
- When servicing a malfunction of the IVIS (indicated by lighting up of Security Indicator Lamp) or registering another IVIS ignition key ED no., it may be necessary to re-register original key identification. Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner.
