troller may not be sensed as being within the
interior workable area (refer to the related

“LOCK” button of remote controller (2)
for about 2 seconds.NOTE:
• If you still cannot select the ignition
modes, there may be some problem with
the keyless push start system. Contact
an authorized SUZUKI dealer for an
inspection of the system.
• The immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light will come on for about
5 seconds while the master warning indi-
cator light is blinking. In addition, the
information display in the instrument
cluster will show a message during this
time. Refer to “Information display” in
“BEFORE DRIVING” section for details.
• You may customize the system to cause
the interior buzzer to sound once for
warning that remote controller is out of
sensing range. To incorporate this cus-
tomization, please contact an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
• If the battery of the remote controller is
about to become completely discharged,
the corresponding message will appear
on the information display when you
press the engine switch to change the
ignition mode to “ON”. Refer to “Informa-
tion display” in “BEFORE DRIVING” sec-
tion for details. For details on replacing
