Ignition Switch - Suzuki GSX-R1000/A Owner's Manual

NOTE:
• Immobilizer identification code is
programmed into the key. There-
fore, a key made by an ordinary
locksmith will not work. Ask your
Suzuki dealer if you need to make
a spare key.
• If you lose the key, ask your
Suzuki dealer to have the lost one
deactivated.
• If you own other vehicles with
immobilizer keys, keep those keys
away from the ignition switch
when using your motorcycle, or
they may interfere with your
motorcycle immobilizer system.
• Two keys are originally registered
to the immobilizer system. It is
possible to add two more keys.
Ask your Suzuki dealer to make
and register additional spare keys.

IGNITION SWITCH

The ignition switch has 4 positions:
"OFF" POSITION
All electrical circuits are cut off. The
engine will not start. The key can be
removed.
"ON" POSITION
The ignition circuit is completed and
the engine can now be started. The
headlight and taillight will automati-
cally be turned on when the key is in
this position. The key cannot be
removed from the ignition switch in
this position.
NOTE: Start the engine promptly after
turning the key to the "ON" position,
or the battery will lose power due to
consumption by the headlight and tail-
light.
"LOCK" POSITION
To lock the steering, turn the handle-
bar all the way to the left. Push down
and turn the key to the "LOCK" posi-
tion and remove the key. All electrical
circuits are cut off.
