If  the  master  warning  indicator  light
blinks and the engine cannot be started
Your  keyless  push  start  system  remote
controller  may  not  be  sensed  as  being
within the interior workable area. Try again
after  checking  that  you  have  the  remote
controller  with  you.  If  the  engine  still  can-
not  be  started,  the  battery  of  the  remote
controller  may  be  discharged.  To  start  the
engine, use the following method:

1) Check that the parking brake is set fully.
2) Manual transaxle – Shift to “N” (Neutral) and fully depress the clutch pedal. Hold
the  clutch  and  brake  pedals  fully
depressed.
CVT – If the gearshift lever is not in the
“P”  (Park)  position,  shift  it  to  “P”.  Hold
the brake pedal fully depressed.
Auto  Gear  Shift  –  Shift  to  “N”  (Neutral)
and fully depress the brake pedal. Hold
the brake pedal fully depressed. 3) “PUSH START SWITCH.” message will
appear on the information display in the
instrument  cluster.  Press  the  engine
switch (1).
4) The  master  warning  indicator  light  in the  instrument  cluster  blinks  within
about  10  seconds.  Touch  the  engine
switch with LOCK button end of remote
controller (2) for  about 2 seconds.
NOTE:
• If you still cannot start the engine after several attempts using the above
method, there may be a problem else-
where, such as the lead-acid battery per-
formance is poor. Contact your SUZUKI
dealer for inspection.
• The immobilizer/keyless push start sys- tem warning light will come on for about
5 seconds while the master warning indi-
cator light is blinking. In addition, the
information display will show a certain
message during this time. Refer to
“Information display” in the “BEFORE
DRIVING” section for details.
• You may customize the system to cause
the interior buzzer to sound once for
warning that remote controller is out of
sensing range. Please contact an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer for the customiza-
tion. • If the battery of the remote controller is
about to become completely discharged,
the corresponding message will appear
on the information display when you
press the engine switch to change the
ignition mode to ON. For details on
replacing the battery, refer to “Keyless
push start system remote controller /
keyless entry system  transmitter” in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section.

condition and/or driv ing situation even in
the same vehicle speed and engine rev-
olution.
• If any of the electrical systems such as the dual camera brake support or the
ESP
® (if equipped) is working, the gear-
shift indicator will disappear temporarily. Example of the gearshift indicator

Also, the system is not designed to
avoid the lane deviations automati-
cally.  Do  not  rely  excessively  on
the  system  and  always  drive  in  a
safe manner.
• Depending  on  road  surface  condi-
tions,  you  may  not  feel  the  vibra-
tion  of  the  steering  wheel  even
when  the  lane  departure  warning
works.

Rearview camera (if equipped)When  the  gearshift  lever  is  shifted  to  “R”
position while the ignition switch is in “ON”
position  or  the  ignition  mode  is  ON,  the
rearview  camera  system  automatically
shows  the  view  behind  the  vehicle  on  the
display.
Rearview camera location
75RM128
(1) Rearview camera
The  rearview  camera  is  installed  beside
the license plate light.
WA R N I N G
The  distance  viewed  in  the  rearview
camera  may  differ  from  the  actual
distance  according  to  the  condition
of  road  or  the  load the vehicle  is car-
rying.  Since  the  camera  display  area
is  also  limited,  backing  up  by  only
looking at the display may cause an
accident or a crash with an object.
The  rearview  camera  cannot  replace
the  driver’s  attention.  The  driver
alone  is  responsible  for  parking  and
similar driving maneuvers.
• Use  the  rearview  camera  only  to provide driving assistance.
• Always  drive  carefully  confirming
the  safety  of  the  rear  and  the  sur-
rounding  conditions  by  looking
directly  with  your  eyes  and  using
the rear view mirror.
• Check  that  the  tailgate  is  securely closed when backing up.
NOTICE
If  you  use  the  rearview  camera  for  a
long  time  when  the  ignition  switch  is
in “ON” position or the ignition mode
is  ON,  but  the  engine  is  not  running,
the lead-acid battery may discharge.
Do  not  leave  the  ignition  switch  in
“ON”  position  or  the  ignition  mode
ON for a long time when the engine is
not running.
NOTICE
The  rearview  camera  is  a  precision
instrument.  If  you  strike  the  camera,
it  may  be  broken  and  cause  damage
resulting in a catch fire or a malfunc-
tion.
• Do not strike the camera.
• Do not remove snow or mud on thecamera lens with a stick.
