Default 2009 verisa - car key icon dash board flashing

Hi

I have a 2009 Verisa, the car key icon keeps flashing when the car is not in use or running.
no problem starting the car and driving.
its just constantly flashing after turning off hr ignition.

I have replaced the Fob battery already, still no luck.

Any ideas as to why this is happening? Been doing this for 2 days alone.

Thanks In advance
lodd

100% normal.

Its a warning to car thieves that the car is immobilized.

Lol...took me a while to work that one out too...

The Verisa is a 'Japan only' model, but NZ imports a lot of them. Found this on trade me: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/c...ing/4223551676

It's a Japanese to English translation of the owner manual, which I found quite helpful.
