Emergency repair
1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “R” (Reverse).
Turn on the hazard warning flasher if
your vehicle is near traffic.
Block the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the wheel being
repaired.
2) Take out the sealant bottle and the
compressor.
3) At the top of the compressor, remove
the cap that covers the socket for the
sealant bottle, and then screw the bot-
tle into the socket.
4) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire
valve.
5) Connect the air hose of the air com-
pressor to the tire valve.
6) Connect the power plug of the com-
pressor to the accessory socket. Start
the engine. Switch on the compressor.
Inflate the tire to the required air pres-
sure.

If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessaryseal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the screw of the filler hose.
7) Affix the speed restriction label from the
air compressor in the driver’s field of
view.
8) Make a short drive immediately after
inflating the tire to the required air pres-
sure. Drive carefully with a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
9) Carry on driving carefully to the nearest
SUZUKI dealer or a tire repair shop.
10)After 10 km (6 mile) running, check the
tire pressure with the pressure gauge of
the compressor. If the air pressure indi-
cates more than 220 kPa (2.2 bar), the
emergency repair is completed. But, if
the air pressure indicates less than the
required air pressure, correct the tire
pressure to the required air pressure. If
the tire pressure has dropped below
130 kPa (1.3 bar), the flat tire repair kit
cannot provide the necessary seal. Do
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.

Jump-starting instructions
WA R N I N G
Check the tire pressure and confirm
the completion of the emergency
repair after 10 km (6 mile) of running.
NOTICE
Have the tire renewed at the nearest
SUZUKI dealer. When reusing the
sealed tire, consult a tire repair shop.
The wheel can be reused after wiping
sealant off completely with cloth in
order to prevent rust, but the tire
valve and tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) sensor must be
renewed.
Dispose of the sealant bottle at a
SUZUKI dealer or in accordance with
your regional codes and practices.
After using the sealant bottle, replace
it with a new bottle from your SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.
WA R N I N G
• Never attempt to jump-start your
vehicle if the battery appears to be
frozen. Batteries in this condition
may explode.
• When making jump lead connec-
tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Batteries produce flammable
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working near the battery.
• If the booster battery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your battery discharges repeat-
edly, for no apparent reason, have
your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam-
age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
below.
If you are in doubt, call for qualified
road service.

Engine trouble: Overheating
The engine could overheat temporarily
under severe driving conditions. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge indi-
cates overheating during driving:
1) Turn off the air conditioner, if equipped.
2) Take the vehicle to a safe place and
park.
3) Run the engine at a normal idle speed
for a few minutes until the indicator is
within the normal, acceptable tempera-
ture range between “H” and “C”.If the temperature indication does not
come down to within the normal, accept-
able range:
1) Turn off the engine and check that the
water pump belt and pulleys are not
damaged or slipping. If any abnormality
is found, correct it.
2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir.
If it is found to be lower than “LOW”
line, check radiator, water pump, radia-
tor hoses and heater hoses for leakage.
If leakage that may cause overheating
is found, do not run the engine until
these problems have been corrected.
3) If leakage is not found, carefully add
coolant to the reservoir and then the
radiator, if necessary. (Refer to “Engine
coolant” in “INSPECTION AND MAIN-
TENANCE” section.)
NOTE:
If engine overheats and you are not sure
what to do, contact your SUZUKI dealer.

If you see or hear escaping steam,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and
immediately turn off the engine to
cool it. Do not open the hood when
steam is present. When the steam
can no longer be seen or heard, open
the hood to see if the coolant is still
boiling. If it is, you must wait until it
stops boiling before you proceed.WA R N I N G
• It is hazardous to remove the radia-
tor cap (or degassing tank cap for a
diesel engine) when the water tem-
perature is high, because scalding
fluid and steam may be blown out
under pressure. The cap should
only be taken off when the coolant
temperature has lowered.
• To help prevent personal injury,
keep hands, tools and clothing
away from the engine cooling fan
and air-conditioner fan (if
equipped). These electric fans can
automatically turn on without warn-
ing.
