BEFORE DRIVING
NOTE:
Immobilizer system
Keys
If the immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light blinks or comes on, a
message may be shown on the information
display.
This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
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 into 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 your
SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle must be pro-
grammed with the correct identification
code for the spare. A key made by an ordi-
nary locksmith will not work.
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
your SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.

For vehicles with a keyless push start
system
Your vehicle comes with a pair of identical
keys. Keep the spare key in a safe place.
One key can open all of the locks on the
vehicle.
If this light blinks, change the ignition mode
to “LOCK” (OFF), and then change it back
to “ON”. Also refer to “If the master warn-
ing indicator light blinks and the engine
cannot be started” in “Starting engine
(vehicle with keyless push start system)” in
“OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE” section.
If the light still blinks after the ignition mode
is changed back to “ON”, there may be
something wrong with your key or with the
immobilizer system. Ask your SUZUKI
dealer to have the system inspected.
The key identification number is stamped
on a metal tag provided with the keys or on
the keys. Keep the tag (if equipped) in a
safe place. If you lose your keys, you will
need this number to have new keys made.
Write the number below for your future ref-
erence.
