2-9BEFORE DRIVING
57L20-03E
NOTE:
If the remote controller is outside the
request switch operating range
described above, you will not be able to
operate the request switch.
If the battery of the remote controller
runs down or there are strong radio
waves or noise, the request switch oper-
ating range may be reduced or the
remote controller may be inoperative.
If the remote controller is too close to the
door, the request switches may not oper-
ate.
If a spare remote controller is in the vehi-
cle, the request switches may not oper-
ate normally.
The remote controller will only operate a
request switch if it is within the switch’s
operating range. For example, if the
remote controller is within the operating
range of the driver’s door request switch
but not the front passenger’s door
request switch, the driver’s door switch
can be operated but the front passen-
ger’s door switch cannot be operated.NOTE:
The keyless start system may not function
correctly in certain environments or under
certain operating conditions such as the
following:
When there are strong signals coming
from a television, power station or a cel-
lular phone.
When the remote controller is in contact
with or covered by a metal object.
When a radio wave type remote keyless
entry is used nearby.
When the remote controller is placed
near an electronic device such as per-
sonal computer.Some additional precautions you should
take and information you should be aware
of are:
Make sure the key is stowed in the
remote controller. If the remote controller
becomes unreliable, you will not be able
to lock or unlock the doors, or start the
engine.
Be sure that the driver always carries the
remote controller.
If you lose one of the remote controllers,
ask an authorized SUZUKI dealer as
soon as possible for a replacement. Be
sure to have your dealer program the
new remote controller code in your vehi-
cle’s memory so that the old code is
erased, or perform the programming pro-
cedure yourself according to the instruc-
tions in this section.
You can use up to four remote controllers
and keys for your vehicle. Ask an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer for details.
The battery life of the remote controller
is about two years, but it can vary
depending on usage conditions.
CAUTION
The remote controller is a sensitive
electronic instrument. To avoid dam-
aging the remote controller:
Do not expose it to impacts, mois-
ture or high temperature such as by
leaving it on the dashboard under
direct sunlight.
Keep the remote controller away
from magnetic objects such as a
television.
