ignition SUZUKI JIMNY 2020 Repair Manual

The transmission is a 4-speed (3-speed plus overdrive) automatic transmission. By operating the overdrive off switch, the transmission can be converted to a 3-speed automatic transmission that will not move to the overdrive position. To convert the transmission to the 3-speed mode, push in the overdrive off switch and release it.
To return the transmission to the 4-speed mode, push in the overdrive off switch again:
When the ignition switch is turned to the "ACC" position, the transmission in the 3-speed mode is converted to the 4-speed mode automatically. The 3-speed mode is suitable for the fol­lowing driving conditions: Driving on hilly, winding roads -You can drive more smoothly with less frequent gear changing Going down a steep hill -Some engine braking is provided

The automatic transmission vehicles have an electrically operated park-lock feature. If the vehicle's lead-acid battery is dis­charged, or there is some other electrical failure, the automatic transmission cannot be shifted out of Park in the normal way. Jump starting may correct the condition. If not, follow the procedure described below. This procedure will permit shifting the transmission out of Park.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
1) Be sure the parking brake is firmly applied. 2) If the engine is running, stop the engine. 3) Make sure the key is in "ON" or "ACC" position. 4) Remove the cover (1) over the button. 5) With the knob button (1) pushed by the key or the flat end rod, push the knob button (2) and shift the gearshift lever to the desired position.
This procedure is for emergency use only. If repeated use of this procedure is neces­sary, or the procedure does not work as described, take your vehicle to a SUZUKI dealer for repair.

Gearshift indicator
(if equipped)
52RM30410
In the following cases, the gearshift indica­tor is indicated in the information display when the ignition switch is in "ON" position. • When the gearshift lever is in a position other than "N" (Neutral). When the transfer lever is in "2H" or "4H" position. For vehicles equipped with the cruise control, when the system is not in use.

NOTICE
Pay attention to shifting the transfer lever safely when driving your vehi­cle.
NOTE: After shifting the transfer lever from "2H'" to "4H", check that the 4WD indicator
light comes on. After shifting the transfer lever from "4H" to "2H", check that the 4WD indicator goes off. ·
When 4WD indicator fight is blinking after shifting the transfer fever to "4H" position, accelerate, slow down your vehicle or stop and reverse your vehicle a little to shift the transfer lever. Pay attention to the vehicles and the circum­ference toward or backward your vehicle when shifting the transfer fever. When you shift the transfer fever while turning the steering wheel or depressing the accelerator pedal, shifting the trans­fer fever may be difficult. Operate the transfer fever while driving at low speed if it may be difficult to shift the transfer fever from "2H" position to "4H" position when the vehicle is stopped.
Shift the transfer fever again after decel­erating or stopping the vehicle if it may be difficult to shift the transfer fever from "2H" position to "4H" position while driv­ing or when the gear noise occurs. There may be a case to operate the transfer fever heavily when shifting the transfer lever from "4H" position to "2H" P_Osition while driving. In this case, posi­tion the front wheels straight ahead and drive for a while and then operate shift­ing the transfer fever again. When the transfer lever is shifted from 2H" position to "4H" position or from "4H" position to 2H" position and the air lock­ing hubs are activated, the air condition­ing system may not be operated for several seconds. This is not a malfunc­tion. When the ignition switch is turned "ON" after the transfer fever is shifted from 2H" position to "4H" position or from "4H" position to 2H" position while stopping the engine, 4WD indicator light may blink. This is not a malfunction.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
78RB03027
Stop the vehicle completely, place the transmission in "N" (Neutral) or depress the clutch pedal fully (if equipped), then shift the transfer lever from "4H" position to "4L" position by pressing the transfer lever.
3-20

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
A WARNING
When you turn off the engine while the transfer is not finished to shift into "4L" position, follow instructions below. 1) Depress the brake pedal* fully. 2) Turn the ignition switch to "OFF" position. • Depress the brake pedal until the engine is started again. Even though the gearshift lever is shifted into 1st gear or "R" (Reverse) gear for manual trans­mission vehicles or shifted into "P" (Park) position for automatic trans­mission vehicles, there may be a case that the wheels of the vehicle is not stationary. When you turn off the engine in this situation, start the engine again and move the vehicle forward or back­ward slowly.
3-21
A CAUTION
Do not operate the transfer lever while driving. Do not operate the transfer lever while making a left or right turn or while holding rear wheels slipped on icy, snow-covered, or muddy roads. Your vehicle may move to the unexpected direction. 4-wheel drive system may be also dam­aged.
NOTE: There may be a case that you will feel the difficulty to operate the transfer lever when shifting the transfer lever from "4H" position to "4L" position. Operate the transfer lever into "4L" position surely. When shifting the transfer lever from "4H" position to "4L" position, the buzzer will sound and the function of the ES?® system and the vehicle stability control system will be deactivated. There may be a case that shifting into "4L" position is not completed when the transfer system or the transmission is not warm in the cold weather. There may be a possibility of difficulty to shift espe­cially for automatic transmission vehicles in the cold weather. Follow instructions below in this case and operate the trans­fer lever again. -Stop the vehicle completely. -Place the transmission in "N" (Neu-tral). -Depress the brake pedal* fully. -Release the parking brake. -Turn the ignition switch to "OFF" posi-tion. -Shift the transfer lever from "4H" posi­tion to "4L" position by pressing the transfer lever. -Check whether the vehicle can be moved by moving the vehicle forward or backward slowly. • Depress the brake pedal until the engine is started again.

A. WARNING
• High beam assist has limits and may not function properly depend­ing on the surrou.nding environ­ment. Always drive in a safe manner, switch manually to the low beams and high beams (main beams), if necessary. Switching of the low beams and high beams (main beams) it might not match the feeling of the driver.
NOTE: Light vehicle such as a bicycle might not detect. When the sudden acceleration, high beam assist might not operate for a few seconds, even if vehicle speed exceeds 40kmlh (24.9 mph).

NOTE: The traffic sign may be shown with delay on the information display depending on the circumstances and conditions of the vehicle The number of the traffic sign for this function shows up to three signs on the information display The traffic signs are disappeared on the information display under the following situations -When the vehicle was run in constant distance after showing the traffic signs on the information display (except for regulation end sign}, -When a period of time passed after the traffic signs on the information dis­play (only for regulation end sign), -When turning right or left with the turn signal lights blinked, -For manual transmission vehicle, the gearshift lever is in "R" position, for automatic transmission vehicle, the gearshift lever is in "P" or "R" position (except for speed limit sign). To change the traffic sign recognition setting, select "Sign recog." in "Setting mode" on the information display. Then, select "ON" or "OFF"
When the ignition switch was turned "OFF" with the speed limit sign shown on the information display and then the igni­tion switch is fumed "ON" again, the information display shows the same speed limit sign the last time the ignition switch was fumed "OFF" When you drive in the area where unit of velocity is changed, the traffic signs may not be appeared or the different traffic signs may be appeared on the informa­tion display after passing the actual traf­fic signs. This is not a malfunction. The display will be resumed after driving for a while. The speed limit sign on the information display that is higher or lower than the actual limited speed sign may be dis­played for the speed limit sign
