2) Push open the tailgate from inside by
pushing up on the emergency lever (2)
using a flat blade screwdriver or the
jack handle. The tailgate will be latched
again by closing the tailgate simply.
If the tailgate cannot be unlatched by push-

Trunk Lid (SX4 SEDAN)
55KS005
If your vehicle is equipped with a trunk lid
key lock, you can open the trunk lid by
using the key in the trunk lid lock. To open
the trunk lid, insert the key and turn it
clockwise to unlatch and lift the trunk lid.
WARNING
Always make sure that the tailgate is
closed and latched securely. Com-
pletely closing the tailgate helps pre-
vent occupants from being thrown
from the vehicle in the event of an
accident. Completely closing it also
helps keep exhaust gases from enter-
ing the car.
WARNING
To avoid injury, do not use your fin-
ger to push the emergency lever.
Make sure there is no one near the
tailgate when pushing open the tail-
gate from inside the vehicle.

CAUTION
Do not use the key to lift up the lid, or
the key may break off in the lock.EXAMPLE

If your vehicle is equipped with a trunk lid
unlatch switch (1), push and hold the trunk
lid unlatch switch (1) and lift the trunk lid to
open the trunk lid.
The trunk lid unlatch switch (1) operates
when the keyless start system remote con-
troller is within the switch’s operating
range.
The trunk lid unlatch switch (1) operates
only to open the trunk lid.
If you close the trunk lid with the keyless
start system remote controller left in the
trunk with all the doors locked, the trunk
will be automatically unlatched.
80JC005
You can unlock the lid by pulling the
release lever located to the outboard side
of the driver’s seat.
Internal Trunk Release
(SX4 SEDAN)
54G297
There is a release lever located inside the
trunk, on the rear part of the trunk lid. This
lever is for emergency use so that if a per-
son, such as a child, gets trapped in the
trunk compartment, he can exit the vehicle.
The lever glows in the dark, after a brief
exposure to ambient light, so it can be
found easily. It is operated by pushing it
down in the direction of the arrow.

troller code yourself
Your new vehicle was originally equipped
with two remote controllers.
If you have lost one of the remote control-
lers, you should change the remote con-
troller code in your vehicle’s memory as
soon as possible for security. If you pur-
chase additional remote controllers, the
new remote controllers need to be pro-
grammed into your vehicle’s memory. You
can perform this yourself by using the fol-
lowing procedure:
NOTE:
You can program up to four remote con-
troller codes into your vehicle’s memory.
The four codes may be the same or dif-
ferent.
If you try to program a fifth code, the four
remote controller codes that are pro-
grammed will be cleared automatically.
If you program a new remote controller
code, all of the old remote controller
codes that are in your vehicle’s memory
will be erased automatically. When you
program a new remote controller, you
should reprogram any additional remote
controllers at the same time.
To purchase new remote controllers, see
your SUZUKI dealer.
Before you begin programming, have all
of your remote controllers available.
