Returning ignition mode to LOCK (OFF)CVT – To ensure safety, the ignition mode
can be returned to LOCK (OFF) by press-
ing the engine switch only when the gear-
shift lever is placed in the “P” position
without pressing the knob button.
NOTE:
In the case of a CVT model, the ignition
mode cannot be returned to the LOCK
(OFF) position if the gearshift lever is in
any other position than “P”.
Certain problems like a fault in engine sys-
tem may prevent the engine switch from
going back to the LOCK (OFF) mode. If
this happens, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized SUZUKI dealer after
doing the following:
• Lock the doors using the key to prevent
theft. (The request switches and the key-
less push start system remote controller
cannot be used to lock them.)
• Disconnect the negative cable from the lead-acid battery to prevent discharge. LOCK (OFF) mode reminder buzzer
If the driver’s door is opened without
returning the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF)
by pressing the engine switch, a buzzer
sounds to warn you of this state.
• If you open the driver’s door after press-
ing the engine switch to change the igni-
tion mode to ACC, the interior buzzer
beeps intermittently.
• The buzzer will stop sounding if you then push the engine switch twice, thus bringing
it back the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF).NOTE:
Whenever you leave the vehicle, check
that you have returned the ignition mode to
LOCK (OFF) using the engine switch and
then lock the doors. Without returning the
ignition mode to LOCK (OFF), you cannot
use a request switch or keyless push start
system remote controller to lock the doors.
Steering lock warning buzzer
If the steering lock fails to engage due to a
fault in the system when the ignition mode
is turned to LOCK (OFF) by pressing the
engine switch and any door (including the
tailgate) is opened or closed, the interior
buzzer will warn you of this condition with
repeated short beeps. If this happens,
have the vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.

8-13EMERGENCY SERVICE
75RM4-01E
Engine trouble: Starter does not operate1) Try turning the ignition switch to“START” position or try pressing the
engine switch to change the ignition
mode to START with the headlights
turned on to determine the lead-acid
battery condition. If the headlights go
excessively dim or go off, it usually
means that either the lead-acid battery
is flat or the battery terminal contact is
poor. Recharge the lead-acid battery or
correct battery terminal contact as nec-
essary.
2) If the headlights remain bright, check the fuses. If the reas on for failure of the
starter is not obvious, there may be a
major electrical problem. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
Engine trouble: Flooded engine(Vehicle without keyless push start sys-
tem)
If the engine is flooded with gasoline, it
may be hard to start. If this happens, press
the accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and hold it there while cranking the
engine.
• Do not operate the starter motor for more than 12 seconds.
(Vehicle with keyless push start system)
If the engine is flooded with gasoline, it
may be hard to start. If this happens, press
the accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and hold it there while cranking the
engine.
• Do not operate the starter motor for more than 12 seconds.
NOTE:
If the engine refuses to start, the starter
motor automatically stops after a certain
period of time. After the starter motor has
automatically stopped or if there is any-
thing abnormal in the engine starting sys-
tem, the starter motor runs only while the
engine switch is held pressed.
Engine trouble: OverheatingThe engine could overheat temporarily
under severe driving conditions. If the high
engine coolant temperature warning light
comes on as overheating during driving:
1) Turn off the air conditioner, if equipped.
2) Take the vehicle to a safe place and park.
3) Let the engine run at the normal idle speed for a few minutes until the high
engine coolant temperature warning
light goes off.
WA R N I N G
If you see or hear escaping steam,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and
immediately turn off the engine to
cool it. Do not open the hood when
steam is present. When the steam
can no longer be seen or heard, open
the hood to see if the coolant is still
boiling. If it is, you must wait until it
stops boiling before you proceed.
