Your vehicle comes with a pair of keys.
The key(s) may or may not be equipped
with a transmitter depending on model
variant. Keep the spare key in a safe place.
One key can open all of the locks on the
vehicle.
The key identification number is stamped
on a metal tag provided with the keys or on
the keys. Keep the tag (if equipped) in a
safe place. If you lose your keys, you will
need this number to have new keys made.
Write the number below for your future ref-
erence.
Immobilizer System
This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
The engine can be started only with your
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key
which has an electronic identification code
programmed into it. The key communi-
cates the identification code to the vehicle
when the key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion. If you need to make spare keys, see
your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle
must be programmed with the correct iden-
tification code for the spare keys. A key
made by an ordinary locksmith will not
work.

If the immobilizer system light (1) blinks
when the ignition switch is in the “ON” posi-
tion, there may be something wrong with
your key or with the immobilizer system.
Ask your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to
inspect the system.NOTE:
• If you lose your immobilizer ignition key,
see your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as
soon as possible to have the lost one
deactivated, then have the new key
made by them.
• If you own other vehicles with immobi-
lizer keys, keep those keys away from
the ignition switch when using your
MARUTI SUZUKI, or the engine may not
be started because they may interfere
with your MARUTI SUZUKI’s immobi-
lizer system.
• If you attach any metal objects to the
immobilizer key, it may not start the
engine.
