If you cannot unlock the tailgate due to a
discharged battery or malfunction, follow
the procedures below to unlock the tailgate
from inside the vehicle.
1) Remove the luggage compartment

less start system remote controller (Type
A) or a keyless entry system transmitter
(Type B). The remote controller has a key-
less entry system and a keyless start sys-
tem. The transmitter has only a keyless
entry system. For details, refer to the fol-

(1) 80 cm (2 1/2 feet)
When the remote controller is within
approximately 80 cm (2 1/2 feet) from a
front door handle or the tailgate switch, you
can lock or unlock the doors by pushing
the request switch.
NOTE:
If the remote controller is outside the
request switch operating range
described above, you will not be able to
operate the request switch.
If the battery of the remote controller
runs down or there are strong radio
waves or noise, the request switch oper-
ating range may be reduced or the
remote controller may be inoperative.
If the remote controller is too close to the
door, the request switches may not oper-
ate. If a spare remote controller is in the vehi-
cle, the request switches may not oper-
ate normally.
The remote controller will only operate a
request switch if it is within the switch’s
operating range. For example, if the
remote controller is within the operating
range of the driver’s door request switch
but not the front passenger’s door
request switch or the tailgate request
switch, the driver’s door switch can be
operated but the front passenger’s door
switch or tailgate switch cannot be oper-
ated.NOTE:
The keyless start system may not function
correctly in certain environments or under
certain operating conditions such as the
following:
When there are strong signals coming
from a television, power station or a cel-
lular phone.
When the remote controller is in contact
with or covered by a metal object.
When a radio wave type remote keyless
entry is used nearby.
When the remote controller is placed
near an electronic device such as per-
sonal computer.
Some additional precautions you should
take and information you should be aware
of are:
Make sure the ignition key is stowed in
the remote controller. If the remote con-
troller becomes unreliable, you will not
be able to lock or unlock the doors or
start the engine.
Be sure that the driver always carries the
remote controller.
If you lose one of the remote controllers,
ask your SUZUKI dealer as soon as pos-
sible for a replacement. Be sure to have
your dealer program the new remote
controller code in your vehicle’s memory
so that the old code is erased, or per-
form the programming procedure your-
self according to the instructions in this
section.

EXAMPLE
CAUTION
The remote controller is a sensitive
electronic instrument. To avoid dam-
aging the remote controller:
Do not expose it to impacts, mois-
ture or high temperature such as by
leaving it on the dashboard under
direct sunlight.
Keep the remote controller away
from magnetic objects such as a
television.

7) To complete programming, remove the
key from the ignition switch or turn the
ignition switch to the “ON” position.
8) Make sure that the keyless start system
and keyless entry system operate prop-
erly by operating each remote control-
ler.
If you cannot operate the keyless start sys-
tem and/or keyless entry system, repeat
this programming procedure again.
If you still cannot operate the systems, see
your SUZUKI dealer.
To change the old remote controller
codes in your vehicle’s memory
If you have lost one of the remote control-
lers, you should change the remote con-
troller codes in your vehicle’s memory as
soon as possible for security.
To erase the remote controller code(s) in
your vehicle’s memory, you should pro-
gram the new remote controller code. The
old codes in your vehicle’s memory will be
erased automatically. If you have more
remote controller(s), you must program all
of the remote controller codes at the same
time. You cannot operate the keyless start
system and keyless entry system using
any remote controller that is not pro-
grammed at the same time.
For details on how to program, refer to the
programming procedure in this section.
When you complete programming, make
sure that the keyless start system and key-less entry system operate properly by
operating each remote controller.
