(1) 80 cm (2 1/2 feet)
When the remote controller is within
approximately 80 cm (2 1/2 feet) from a
front door handle or the tailgate switch, you
can lock or unlock the doors by pushing
the request switch.
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 th e 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 glass, the request switches may not
operate. • 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 or the tailgate request
switch, the driver’s door switch can be
operated but the front passenger’s door
switch or tailgate switch cannot be oper-
ated.
NOTE:
The keyless push 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:
• Check that 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.
• Check that the driver always carries the
remote controller.
• If you lose one of the remote controllers,
ask your SUZUKI dealer as soon as pos-
sible for a replacement. Have your
dealer program the new remote control-
ler code in your vehicle’s memory so that
the old code is erased.
• You can use up to four remote control-
lers and the keys for your vehicle. Ask
your SUZUKI dealer for details.
• The battery life of the remote controller
is about two years, but it can vary
depending on usage conditions.

Theft deterrent alarm system (if equipped)NOTE:
For the theft deterrent light of Australia,
Israel, Germany and Taiwan models, refer
to “Theft deterrent light” in this section.
A theft deterrent alarm system is armed in
about 20 seconds after you lock the doors.
(The system for EU spec ification vehicle,
however, is not armed when the engine
hood is open.)
Keyless push start system – Use the
remote controller or push the request
switch on driver’s door handle, front pas-
senger’s door handle or tailgate.
Keyless entry system – Use the transmit-
ter.
Once the system is armed, any attempt to
open a door by using any other means (*)
than the keyless push start system remote
controller, the request switch, the keyless
entry system transmitter or engine hood
(for EU specification vehicle) will cause the
alarm to be triggered.
* These means include the following:
–The key
– The lock knob on a door
– The power door locking switch NOTE:
• The theft deterrent alarm system gener-
ates alarms when any of the predeter-
mined conditions is met. However, the
system does not have any function of
blocking unauthorized entry into your
vehicle.
• Always use the keyless push start sys-
tem remote controller, the request switch
or the keyless entry system transmitter
to unlock the doors when the theft deter-
rent alarm system has been armed.
Using a key instead will trigger the
alarm.
• If a person who does not know the theft deterrent alarm system is going to drive
your vehicle, we recommend you explain
the system and its operation to the per-
son, or disable the system beforehand.
Mistakenly triggering the alarm may
cause a nuisance to others.
• Even if the theft deterrent alarm system is armed, you should still be careful to
guard against theft. Do not leave money
or things of value in your vehicle.
• The theft deterrent alarm system is
maintenance-free.

NOTICE
Do not modify or remove the theft
deterrent alarm system. If modified or
removed, the system cannot be prop-
erly operated.

How to arm the theft deterrent alarm
system (when enabled)
Lock all doors (including the tailgate) using
the keyless push start system remote con-
troller, the request switch or the keyless
entry system transmitter. The theft deter-
rent light (1) will start blinking, and the theft
deterrent alarm system will be armed in
about 20 seconds.
While the system is be ing armed, the indi-
cator continues to blink at intervals of
approximately 2 seconds.
75RM313
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 unlocks a door or engine hood (for
EU specification vehicle) by operating
the lock knob or power door locking
switch.
• The theft deterrent alarm system is not armed when all doors are locked using
the key from outside, or using the door
lock knobs or the power door locking
switch from inside.
• If any door is not operated within approx-
imately 30 seconds after the doors have
been unlocked using the keyless push
start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry sys-
tem transmitter, the doors are automati-
cally locked again. After the doors are
locked, the theft de terrent alarm system
will be armed in about 20 seconds if the
system is in the enabled state.
How to disarm the theft deterrent alarm
system
Simply unlock the doors using the keyless
push start system rem ote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry system
transmitter. The theft deterrent light will go
out, indicating that t he theft deterrent alarm
system is disarmed. How to stop
the alarm
Should the alarm be triggered accidentally,
unlock the doors using the keyless push
start system remote c ontroller, the request
switch or the keyless entry system trans-
mitter, or press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to ON or turn the
ignition switch to “ON” position. The alarm
will then stop.
NOTE:
• Even after the alarm has stopped, if you
lock the doors using the keyless push
start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry sys-
tem transmitter, the theft deterrent alarm
system will be rearmed with a delay of
about 20 seconds.
• If you disconnect the lead-acid battery while the theft deterrent alarm system is
in the armed condition or the alarm is
actually in operation, the alarm will be
triggered or re-triggered when the bat-
tery is then reconnected, although, in the
latter case, the alarm remains stopped
for the period between disconnection
and reconnection of the lead-acid bat-
tery.
• Even after the alarm has stopped at the
end of the predetermined operation time,
it will be triggered again if any door or
engine hood (for EU specification vehi-
cle) is opened without disarming the
theft deterrent alarm system.
