Security System (Vehicle with Key-
less push start system)
The security system is armed after you
lock all doors (including engine hood and
trunk/tailgate) by using the keyless push
start system remote controller or request
switch.
Once the system is armed, any attempt to
open a door by using any other means (*)
than the keyless push start system remote
controller or open the engine hood, will
cause the alarm to be triggered.
* These means include the following:
–The key
– The lock knob on a door
– The central door locking switch
– The tailgate unlatch button (if
equipped)
– The trunk lid unlatch button (if
equipped)
Also, in case that you have set the shock
sensor to enabled state and set sensitivity
of the pre-warning function and full blast
warning function to a level other than 0, the
warning will be triggered in case of any
attempt to tamper with the vehicle. The
shock sensor can be selected enabled or
disabled state, and sensitivity of each
warning can be adjusted as desired. To set
the shock sensor, ask your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer or use the setting mode of
the information display.NOTE:
• The default setting of the shock sensor
is in the disabled state. Set to the
enabled state and adjust sensitivity of
each warning according to your prefer-
ence. For details on how to use the infor-
mation display, refer to “Information
Display” in this section.
• Your dealer may have already set the
shock sensor of the vehicle to the
enabled state before you purchase it.
Consult your dealer for further informa-
tion.
NOTE:
• The security system generates alarms
when any of the predetermined condi-
tions is met. However, the system does
not have any function of blocking unau-
thorized entry into the vehicle.
• Always use the keyless push start system
remote controller to unlock the doors when
the security system has been armed.
Using a key instead will trigger the alarm.
• If a person who does not know the secu-
rity system is going to drive the vehicle,
we recommend you explain the system
and its operation to the person. Mistak-
enly triggering the alarm may cause a
nuisance to others.
• Even if the security system is armed,
you should still be careful to guard
against theft. Do not leave money or
things of value in the vehicle.How to arm the security system
Lock all doors (including engine hood and
trunk/tailgate) using the keyless push start
system remote controller or request switch.
When the system is armed, the indicator
continues to blink at intervals of approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
79MH0210
NOTE:
• To prevent the alarm from being acci-
dentally triggered, avoid arming it while
anyone remains inside the vehicle. The
alarm will be triggered if any person
inside opens the door, trunk/tailgate,
engine hood, or the warning may be trig-
gered if anyone swings the vehicle (if the
shock sensor is in the enabled state).
• The security system is not armed when
all doors are locked using the key from
outside, using the door lock knobs or the
central door locking switch from inside.
