Immobilizer SystemThe immobilizer system is an anti-theft fea-
ture, which checks whether the keyless
start system remote controller that is com-
municating via radio waves with the vehicle
has been registered to the vehicle’s key-
less start system. If the remote controller is
not a registered one, the system will refuse
to start the engine using it.Immobilizer/Keyless Start System
Warning Light
85K2210
This light is on the instrument cluster.
 When you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”, the
light comes on briefly so you can check
that the light is working. If the light is
flashing, the engine cannot be started.
 The light also flashes when the “remote
controller outside” warning works.NOTE:
 The immobilizer/keyless start system is
normal if this light goes out in 2 seconds
after pressing the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”. If the
light fails to go out in this period, there is
something wrong with the system. There
is also a problem with the system if the
light remains on for 5 seconds after the
engine switch is pressed when the
switch is in any other ignition mode than
“ON”.
 Illumination or flashing of the light may
be accompanied by a message on the
information display in the instrument
cluster.
NOTE:
 If you lose your keyless start system
remote controller, see your SUZUKI
dealer as soon as possible to have the
lost one deactivated, then have the new
remote controller made by them.
 If you own other vehicles with keyless
start system remote controller, keep
those remote controllers away from the
engine switch when using your SUZUKI,
or the engine may not be started
because they may interfere with your
SUZUKI’s immobilizer system.
 In case of attaching any metal objects to
the keyless start system remote control-
ler, it may not start the engine.1. For USA

trunk lid slightly open by holding the
“TRUNK LID UNLOCK” button on the
remote controller pressed for more than 1

cle, locking of the driver’s and passenger’s
doors made with the power door locking
system or door lock knobs will be can-
celled if either of the doors is open.

switch to change the ignition mode to
“ACC” or “ON” anywhere the remote
controller is placed.Vehicle Inside Area Where Request
