How  to  arm  the  theft  deterrent  alarm
system (when enabled)
Lock all doors (including the tailgate) using
the keyless push start system remote con-
troller,  the  request  switch  or  the  keyless
entry  system  transmitter.  The  theft  deter-
rent light (1) will start blinking, and the theft
deterrent  alarm  system  will  be  armed  in
about 20 seconds.
While the system  is be ing armed,  the indi-
cator  continues  to  blink  at  intervals  of
approximately 2 seconds.
75RM313
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 unlocks a door  or engine hood (for
EU specification vehicle) by operating
the lock knob or power door locking
switch.
• The theft deterrent alarm system is not armed when all doors are locked using
the key from outside, or using the door
lock knobs or the power door locking
switch from inside.
• If any door is not  operated within approx-
imately 30 seconds after the doors have
been unlocked using the keyless push
start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry sys-
tem transmitter, the doors are automati-
cally locked again. After the doors are
locked, the theft de terrent alarm system
will be armed in about 20 seconds if the
system is in the enabled state.
How to disarm the theft deterrent alarm
system
Simply  unlock  the  doors  using  the  keyless
push  start  system  rem ote  controller,  the
request switch or the keyless entry system
transmitter.  The  theft  deterrent  light  will  go
out, indicating that t he theft deterrent alarm
system is disarmed. How to stop 
the alarm
Should the alarm be triggered accidentally,
unlock  the  doors  using  the  keyless  push
start system remote  c ontroller, the  request
switch  or  the  keyless  entry  system  trans-
mitter,  or  press  the  engine  switch  to
change the ignition mode to ON or turn the
ignition  switch  to  “ON”  position.  The  alarm
will then stop.
NOTE:
• Even after the alarm has stopped, if you
lock the doors using the keyless push
start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry sys-
tem transmitter, the theft deterrent alarm
system will be rearmed with a delay of
about 20 seconds.
• If you disconnect the lead-acid battery while the theft deterrent alarm system is
in the armed condition or the alarm is
actually in operation, the alarm will be
triggered or re-triggered when the bat-
tery is then reconnected, although, in the
latter case, the alarm remains stopped
for the period between disconnection
and reconnection of the lead-acid bat-
tery.
• Even after the alarm has stopped at the
end of the predetermined operation time,
it will be triggered again if any door or
engine hood (for EU  specification vehi-
cle) is opened without disarming the
theft deterrent  alarm system.

Checking whether the alarm has been
triggered during parking
If the  alarm  was triggered  due to an unau-
thorized entry into the vehicle and you then
press the engine switch to change the igni-
tion mode to ON or turn the ignition switch
to  “ON”  position,  the  theft  deterrent  light
will blink rapidly for about 8 seconds and a
buzzer will beep 4 times during this period.
If  this  happens,  check  whether  your  vehi-
cle  has  been  broken  into  while  you  were
away from it.
Enabling  and  disabling  the  theft  deter-
rent alarm system
The  theft  deterrent  alarm  system  can  be
either enabled or disabled.
When enabled (factory setting)
When the system is enabled, it causes the
hazard  warning  lights  to  flash  for  about  40
seconds  if  any  of  the  alarm  trigger  condi-
tions  is  met.  The  system  also  causes  the
interior  buzzer  to  beep  intermittently  for
about  10  seconds,  which  is  followed  by
intermittent  sounding  of  the  horn  for  about
30 seconds.
The  theft  deterrent  light  continues  to  blink
during this time.
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  theft
deterrent alarm system 
(Except EU specification vehicle)
You  can  switch  the  theft  deterrent  alarm
system  from  the  enabled
  state  to  the  dis-
abled  state,  and  vice  versa,  using  the  fol-
lowing method.
NOTE:
For EU specification vehicle, the theft
deterrent alarm system  cannot be switched
to the disabled state.

If  the  driver’s  seat  belt  remains  unbuckled
when  the  ignition  switch  is  turned  to  “ON”
position or the engine switch  is pressed to
change  the  ignition  mode  to  ON,  the
reminder works as follows:
1) The  seat  belt  reminder  light  will  come
on.
2) After  the  vehicle’s  speed  has  reached
about  15  km/h,  the  seat  belt  reminder
light  will  blink  and  a  buzzer  will  sound
for about 95 seconds.
3) The  reminder  light  will  remain  on  until the driver’s seat  belt is buckled.
If the driver has buckled his or her seat belt
and  later  unbuckles  the  seat  belt,  the
reminder  system  will  be  activated  from
Step  1)  or  2)  according  to  the  vehicle’s
speed.  When  the  vehicle’s  speed  is  less
than  15  km/h,  the  reminder  will  start  from
Step 1). When the vehicle’s speed is more
than  15  km/h,  the  reminder  will  start  from
Step 2).
The  reminder  will  be  automatically  can-
celed when the driver’s seat belt is buckled
or  the  ignition  switch  is  turned  off,  or  the
engine  switch  is  pressed  to  change  the
ignition mode to LOCK (OFF). Front passenger’s seat belt reminder 
(if equipped)
The  front  passenger’s  seat  belt  reminder
will  activate  only  when  there  is  a  passen-
ger  sitting  in  the  front  seat.  In  some  situa-
tions,  however,  such  as  when  you  place
heavy  objects  in  the  front  seat,  the  seat
belt reminder can be activated as if a pas-
senger was present. The front passenger’s
seat belt reminder wo
rks in the same man-
ner as the driver’s seat belt reminder.
Rear passenger’s seat belt reminder 
(if equipped)
If a rear seat belt is not fastened when the
engine is started, all the rear passenger’s
seat  belt  reminder  lights  will  come  on  for
about 35 seconds and then go out. 
Within this 35 seconds; 
• For the instrument c luster with tachome-
ter,  the  corresponding  reminder  is  high-
lighted.  The  reminder  fades  when  the
seat belt is fastened.
• For  the  instrum ent  cluster  without
tachometer,  the  corresponding  reminder
comes  on  with  the  frame.  The  reminder
goes off with leaving the frame when the
seat belt is fastened.
The  rear  passenger’s  seat  belt  reminder
lights  will  also  come  on  for  about  35  sec-
onds in the following conditions.
• If  a  seat  belt  is  unfastened  when  the vehicle  speed  is  less  than  15  km/h,  the
corresponding light will come on.
WA R N I N G
It  is  absolutely  essential  that  the
driver  and  passengers  fasten  their
seat  belts  at  all  times.  Persons  who
are  not  fastening  seat  belts  have  a
much greater risk of  injury if an acci-
dent  occurs.  Make  a  regular  habit  of
buckling your seat belt before putting
the key in the ignition or pressing the
engine switch.

(For  models  with  front  passenger  air  bag
deactivation system)
Whenever  possible,  SUZUKI  recom-
mends  that  child  restraint  systems  be
installed  on  the  rear  seat.  According  to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly  restrained  in  rear  seating  posi-
tions than in front seating positions.
• If you must install the child restraint sys-
tem on the front passe nger’s seat, follow
instructions below.
– Deactivate  the  front  passenger’s  front air  bag  by  the  front  passenger  air  bag
deactivation system.
– Slide the seat to t he most rear position
by the seat position adjustment lever.
– Adjust  the  seatba ck  at  the  5th  step
inclined  position  (counted  from  most
upright  position)  w ith  the  seatback
angle adjustment lever. – If  your  vehicle  is  equipped  with  the
seat height adjustment lever, raise the
seat  to  the  uppermost  position  by  the
seat height adjustment lever.
Install  your  child  restraint  system  accord-
ing to the instructions provided by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
Check  that  the  seat  belt  is  securely
latched.
Move the child restraint system in all direc-
tions to check that it  is securely installed.
When  you  put  your  child  in  the  child
restraint  system,  appr opriately  slide  the
front  seat  forward  not  to  touch  a  part  of
your child’s body.
CAUTION
Adjust the height of the rear head
restraint  or  remove  it  for  fitting  the
child  restraint,  as  necessary.  How-
ever,  if  a  booster  cushion  not
equipped  with  the  head  restraint  is
fitted,  the  rear  seat  head  restraint
should not be removed. If the rear
head  restraint  is  removed  for  fitting
the child restraint, you need to install
it  again  after  removing  the  child
restraint.
If the child restraint is fitted improp-
erly,  a  child  sitting  in  it  could  be
injured in a crash.
