Security System (if equipped)
The security system is armed in about 5 seconds after you lock all doors (includingthe tailgate) by using the keyless entry sys- tem transmitter. Once the system is armed, any attempt toopen a door by using any other means (*) than the keyless entry system transmitter, or open the engine hood, will cause thealarm to be triggered. * These means include the following:–The key – The lock knob on a door – The central door locking switch
Also, in case that you have set the shocksensor to enabled state and set sensitivity of the pre-warning function and full blastwarning function to a level other than 0, the alarm will be triggered if any attempt to tamper with the vehicle. The shock sensorcan be selected enabled or disabled state, and sensitivity of each warning can be adjusted as desired. To set the shock sen-sor, ask your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer or use the setting mode of the information display.
NOTE: • The default setting of the shock sensoris 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 theshock sensor of the vehicle to theenabled state before you purchase it. Consult your dealer for further informa-tion.
NOTE:• The security system generates alarmswhen any of the predetermined condi-tions is met. However, the system doesnot have any function of blocking unau- thorized entry into the vehicle.• Always use the keyless entry systemtransmitter to unlock the doors when thesecurity 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 systemand its operation to the person, or dis- able the system beforehand. Mistakenly triggering the alarm may cause a nui-sance to others.• Even if the security system is armed,you should still be careful to guardagainst theft. Do not leave money or things of value in the vehicle.
How to arm the security system
(when enabled)Lock all doors (including the tailgate) using the keyless entry system transmitter. Thesecurity system indicator (1) will start blink- ing rapidly, and the security system will be armed in about 5 seconds.While the system is being armed, the indi- cator continues to blink at intervals of approximately 2 seconds.

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 or engine hood, orswings the vehicle (if the shock sensor is in the enabled state).• The security system is not armed whenall doors are locked using the key fromoutside, or using the door lock knobs or the central door locking switch frominside.• If any door is not operated within approx-imately 30 seconds after the doors havebeen unlocked using the keyless entry system transmitter, the doors are auto-matically locked again. When the doors are locked, the security system will be
armed in about 5 seconds if the system is in the enabled state.• If the security system indicator (1) blinkswhen the ignition switch is in the “ON”position, there may be something wrong with the security system. Ask your MAR-UTI SUZUKI dealer to inspect the sys- tem.
How to disarm the security systemSimply unlock the doors using the keyless entry system transmitter. The security sys-tem indicator will go out, indicating that the security system is disarmed.
How to stop the alarm Should the alarm be triggered accidentally, unlock the doors using the keyless entrysystem transmitter, or insert the key in the ignition switch and turn it to “ON” position. The alarm will then stop.
NOTE: • Even after the alarm has stopped, if youlock the doors using the keyless entry system transmitter, the security system will be rearmed with a delay of about 5seconds.• If you disconnect the battery while thesecurity system is in the armed conditionor the alarm is actually in operation, the alarm will be re-triggered when the bat- tery is then reconnected.• Even after the alarm has stopped at theend of the predetermined operation time,it will be triggered again if any of thedoors or engine hood is opened, or the
vehicle feels a shock (if the shock sen- sor is in the enabled state), without dis- arming the security system.
Checking whether the alarm has beentriggered during parkingIf the alarm was triggered and you then turn the ignition switch to “ON” position, the security system indicator will blink rapidlyfor about 8 seconds and a buzzer will beep 4 times during this period. If this happens, check whether the vehicle has been bro-ken into while you were away from it.
Enabling and disabling the security system The security system can be either enabled or disabled.
When enabled If any of the doors are opened withoutunlocking by the keyless entry system transmitter, all turn signal lights start to blink and the interior buzzer beeps inter-mittently. After 5 seconds, the siren will sound for about 27.5 seconds. The secu- rity system indicator continues to blinkduring this time. If the engine hood is opened, all turn sig-nal lights blink, and the siren sounds forabout 27.5 seconds. The security sys- tem indicator continues to blink during this time.
(If the shock sensor is in the enabled state) If the vehicle feels a shock, the sirensounds for about 2 seconds (pre-warn- ing). If the vehicle continues to feel a

4) Push the lock end (4) (forward end) ofthe central door locking switch (5), and then push the unlock end (6) (backwardend). Repeat this operation 3 times.
Every time you perform the series of theabove steps, the state of the security sys- tem changes from the currently selected one to the other. You can check whetherthe system is enabled or disabled by the number of interior buzzer beeps at the end of the procedure as follows.
If you cannot complete the operations instep 3) and 4) within 15 seconds cor- rectly, the state of the security systemwill not change and the interior buzzer does not beep. Perform the procedure again from the beginning.
NOTE: You can also switch the security systemfrom the enabled state to the disabled state, and vice versa, via the setting mode of the information display. For details onhow to use the information display, refer to“Information Display” in this section.

Note that even though your vehicle may be moderately damaged in a frontal collision,the collision may not have been severe enough to trigger the air bags to inflate. If your vehicle sustains ANY front-end dam-age, have the air bag system inspected by an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to ensure it is in proper working order.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic module which records information aboutthe air bag system if the air bags deploy ina crash. The module records informationabout overall system status, which sensorsactivated the deployment, and for a certain vehicle only, whether the driver’s seat belt was in use.
Servicing the air bag system If the air bags inflate, have the air bags andrelated components replaced by an autho- rized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and the driver’s floor is submerged, the air bagcontroller could be damaged. If it does, have the air bag system inspected by theMARUTI SUZUKI dealer as soon as possi- ble.
Special procedures are required for servic- ing or replacing an air bag. For that reason, only an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer should be allowed to service orreplace your air bags. Please remind any-
one who services your vehicle that it has air bags.
Service on or around air bag components or wiring must be performed only by an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.Improper service could result in unin- tended air bag deployment or could render the air bag inoperative. Either of these twoconditions may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended inflation of the air bag system, be sure the batteryis disconnected and the ignition switch hasbeen in the “LOCK” position for at least 90seconds before performing any electrical service work on your vehicle. Do not touch air bag system components or wires. Thewires are wrapped with yellow tape or yel- low tubing, and the couplers are yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflated air bag can be hazardous. Ask your dealer,body repair shop or scrap yard for help with disposal.
