This is not mines but taken from another forum for our use:


Not using SUZUKI Scan Tool
1)Confirm that all doors are closed and ignition mode of keyless push start system is in “OFF”.
2)Open driver side door.
3)Perform the following Steps a) to c) within 15 seconds after changing ignition mode to “ON”.
a)Press driver side door switch within 5 seconds after changing ignition mode to “ON”. Keep pressing driver side door switch for 2 seconds.
b)Release driver side door switch and then press driver side door switch for 2 seconds or more.
c)Release driver side door switch and then press driver side door switch for 2 – 5 seconds.
4)Using recommended tool (“VT55” made by ATEQ) (1), activate each tire pressure sensor within 180 seconds.
Refer to instruction of recommended tool for method of activating tire pressure sensor.
5)Push engine switch to change ignition mode to “OFF” after registration is completed.

NOTE:
•When tire pressure sensor is activated, ID code of tire pressure sensor is registered automatically in keyless start control module.
•If all 4 tire pressure sensor ID codes are not registered in keyless start control module within 180 seconds, perform the above steps again. Also, it is possible to check the number of tire pressure sensor ID codes received by keyless start control module by observing the flashing pattern of low tire pressure warning light.
•If registration of tire pressure sensor ID codes are not completed within 180 seconds, former ID codes remain in keyless start control module.
•When keyless start control module receives all 4 tire pressure sensor ID codes, keyless start control module turns ON low tire pressure warning light in combination meter for 5 seconds.

Looks like this is from the service manual. 8-)

I've found three other documents on the relearn besides the factory one, all about the same. The tpms sensor companies have the pdfs right on their web site for most cars.

So were you able to get the car relearned using the snap on tool and the procedure posted above?

Well for mine the door switch sequence is three presses for 2 seconds-->2 seconds-->4 seconds but yes the snap on tool worked. It takes a long time to find the sensors but if you are patient and move quickly between tires you can do it within the 120 seconds pairing time

Sounds like the same sequence I used on mine. Define 'long time'. Was it more than 30s? Did it sometimes do it almost instantly? The reason I ask is because this is how the vt30 works.
