Keys
54G489
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 or
keyless push start system remote control-
ler which has an electronic identificationcode programmed into it. The key or
remote controller communicates the identi-
fication code to the vehicle when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position or
the engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to “ON”. If you need to make
spare keys or remote controllers, see your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle must
be programmed with the correct identifica-
tion code for the spare. A key made by an
ordinary locksmith will not work.
80JM122
If the immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light blinks when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position or the ignition
mode is “ON”, the engine will not start.
For vehicles without keyless push start
system
If this light blinks, turn the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position, then turn it back to
the “ON” position.
If the light still blinks after the ignition
switch is turned back to the “ON” position,
there may be something wrong with your
key or with the immobilizer system. Ask
your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to have the
system inspected.For vehicles with keyless push start
system
If this light blinks, change the ignition mode
to “LOCK” (OFF), then change back to “ON”.
Also refer to “If the master warning indicator
light blinks and the engine cannot
be started” in “Starting the Engine (Vehicle
with Keyless Push Start System)” in the
“OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE” section.
If the light still blinks after the ignition mode
is changed back to “ON”, there may be
something wrong with your key or with the
immobilizer system. Ask your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.
The immobilizer/keyless push start system
warning light may also blinks if the remote
controller is not in the vehicle when you
close the door or attempt to start the engine.
NOTE:
• If you lose your immobilizer ignition key or
remote controller, see your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible to
have the lost one deactivated, then have
the new key or remote controller made by
them.
• If you own other vehicles with immobilizer
keys, keep those keys away from the igni-
tion switch or the engine switch when
using your Vehicle, or the engine may not
be started because they may interfere
with your Vehicle immobilizer system.
• If you attach any metal objects to the
immobilizer key or remote controller, it
may not start the engine.
