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.

shock, all turn signal lights start to blink and the interior buzzer beeps intermit- tently. After 5 seconds, the siren willsound for about 27.5 seconds (full blast warning). The security system indicator continues to blink during this time.
NOTE:If you set the full blast warning sensitivityhigher than the pre-warning sensitivity inthe setting mode of the information display,or the vehicle feels such shock as to beable to trigger the full blast warning, the full blast warning will be triggered preferen- tially. In this case, the pre-warning will notbe triggered.
When disabled When the system is disabled, it stays dis- armed even if you perform any system arming operation.
How to switch the state of the security systemWhen the security system has beenalready disarmed, you can switch the sys-tem from the enabled state to the disabledstate, and vice versa, using the following method.

Speedometer
The speedometer indicates vehicle speed.
Tachometer (if equipped)
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute.
Fuel Gauge
With tachometer
76MH0A037
Without tachometer
76MH0A038
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, this gauge gives an approximate indication of the amount of fuel in the fueltank. “F” stands for full and “E” stands for empty.
If the fuel meter indicator shows only one segment to “E”, refill the tank as soon aspossible.
NOTE: If the last segment blinks, it means that thefuel is almost empty.
If the low fuel warning light (1) comes on, fill the fuel tank immediately.
NOTE:The activation point of the low fuel warning light (1) varies depending on road condi- tions (for example, slope or curve) anddriving conditions because of fuel moving in the tank.
Refer to “Low Fuel Warning Light” in“Warning and Indicator Lights” in this sec- tion for details.
The mark (2) indicates that the fuel filler door is located on the left side of the vehi-cle.
Brightness Control
76MH0A039
When the ignition switch is turned to the“ON” position, the pointer lights come on.
Your vehicle has a system to automaticallydim the brightness of the instrument panellights when the position lights or headlights are on.
When the position lights and/or headlights are ON, you can control the meter illumina- tion intensity.
NOTICE
Never drive the vehicle with theengine revving in the red zone, orsevere engine damage can result. Keep the engine speed below the red zone even when downshifting to alower gear position. Refer to “Down- shifting maximum allowable speeds” in the “OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE”section.

NOTE:• When you change the units that averagefuel consumption is displayed in, the instantaneous fuel consumption units will be changed automatically.• When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-minal to the battery, the unit of the aver-age fuel consumption will be reinitialized.Change the unit again to your preference.
Driving rangeIf you selected driving range the last timeyou drove the vehicle, the display indicates“---” for a few seconds and then indicatesthe current driving range when the ignitionswitch is turned to the “ON” position. The driving range shown in the display is the approximate distance you can drive untilthe fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on cur-rent driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on, the display “---” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill thefuel tank immediately regardless of the valueof driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is calcu-lated based on the most recent driving con-dition, the value is different each time you refuel.
NOTE: • If you refuel when the ignition switch is inthe “ON” position, the driving range may not indicate the correct value.• When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-minal to the battery, the value of drivingrange will be shown after driving for awhile.

When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, the display (D) indicates the gearposition. For details on how to use the transaxle, refer to “Using the Transaxle” in the“OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE” section.
Thermometer (if equipped)When the ignition switch is in the “ON”position, the display (E) shows the ther-mometer. The thermometer indicates the outside temperature.
76MH0A042
If the outside temperature nears freezing, the mark (g) will appear on the display.
NOTE:• The outside temperature indication is notthe actual outside temperature when driv- ing at low speed, or when stopped.• If there is something wrong with the ther-mometer, or just after the ignition switchis turned to the “ON” position, the display may not indicate the outside temperature.
When the display (C) shows the driving range, you can change the unit of tempera-ture. To change the unit of temperature, while pushing and holding the trip meter selectorknob (1), turn the indicator selector knob (2).
76MH0A043
NOTE: When you reconnect the negative (–) ter- minal to the battery, the unit of temperaturewill be reinitialized. Change the unit again to your preference.
