BEFORE DRIVING
Immobilizer system
Keys
NOTICE
This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
Do not modify or remove the immobi-
lizer system. If modified or removed,
the system cannot be properly oper-
ated.
EXAMPLE
The engine can be started only with your
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key
or keyless push start system remote con-
troller, which has an electronic identifica-
tion code programmed in it. The key or
remote controller communicates the identi-
fication code to the vehicle when the igni-
tion switch is turned to “ON” position or the
engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to ON. If you need to make
spare keys or remote controllers, see an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle
must be programmed with the correct iden-
tification code for the spare. A key made
by an ordinary locksmith will not work.
NOTE:
• If the immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light blinks or comes on, a
message may be shown on the informa-
tion display.
• This immobilizer system is maintenance-
free.
For vehicles without a keyless push
start system
If this light blinks, turn the ignition switch to
“LOCK” position, and then turn it back to
“ON” position.
If the light still blinks after the ignition
switch is turned back to “ON” position,
there may be something wrong with your
key or with the immobilizer system. Ask an
authorized SUZUKI dealer to have the sys-
tem inspected.
