Parking brake lever

(1) To set
(2) To release
(3) To release
The parking brake lever is located between
the seats. To set the parking brake, hold
the brake pedal down and pull the parking
brake lever all the way up. To release the
parking brake, hold the brake pedal down,
pull up slightly on the parking brake lever,
push the button on the end of the lever
with your thumb, and lower the lever to its
original position. For CVT vehicles, always set the parking
brake before moving the gearshift lever to
“P” (PARK) position. If you park on an
incline and shift into “P” before setting the
parking brake, the weight of the vehicle
may make it difficult to shift out of “P” when
you are ready to drive the vehicle.
When preparing to drive the vehicle, move
the gearshift lever out of “P” position
before releasing the parking brake.

• Never drive your vehicle with the
parking brake on: rear brake effec-
tiveness can be reduced from over-
heating, brake life may be
shortened, or permanent brake
damage may result.
• If the parking brake does not hold the vehicle securely or does not
fully release, have your vehicle
inspected immediately by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.

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:
58MST0302
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.

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.

it could prevent proper operation of
the gearshift lever and cause its mal-
function, resulting in an unexpected
accident.EXAMPLE
