Using Transaxle - Suzuki Super Swift Owner's Manual

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Returning ignition mode to "LOCK"
(OFF)
Automatic transaxle or CVT – To ensure
safety, the ignition mode can be returned
to "LOCK" (OFF) by pressing the engine
switch only when the gearshift lever is
placed in "P" position without pressing the
knob button.
NOTE:
In the case of an automatic transaxle or
CVT, the ignition mode cannot be returned
to "LOCK" (OFF) position if the gearshift
lever is in any other position than "P".
Certain problems such as a fault in engine
system may prevent the engine switch
from going back to "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 condi-
tion.
• 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 bring-
ing 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 can-
not 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.
