higher cruising speed by continuous
pushing “RES +” switch (4) is operated.
However, if the vehicle ahead disap-
pears, the vehicle is accelerated auto-
matically to the set speed.Cancelling adaptive cruise control
“SET” indicator (8) will disappear and the
adaptive cruise control system will be can-
celed temporarily under the following con-
ditions:
• When “CANCEL” switch (3) is pushed
• When brake pedal is depressed
• When clutch pedal is continuously
depressed
• When vehicle speed falls below about 40
km/h (25 mph)
• When a vehicle skids and ESP
® is acti-
vated
• When radar sensor cover is covered in
snow, water or dirt
• When engine speed is too high or too
low
• When gear position is changed to “N”
(Neutral)
• When gear position is changed to 1st or
2nd
• When driver’s door is open
• When driver’s seat belt is unfastened

Frontal collision warning
54P000353
If your vehicle gets too close to the vehicle
ahead as described below, the interior
buzzer sounds, the indicator (1) appears
on the information display at the same
time, to promote deceleration.
• The vehicle ahead of you slows down
abruptly.
• Another vehicle cuts in front of you.
Depress the brake pedal, and keep an
appropriate distance from the vehicle
ahead. The buzzer timing of frontal colli-
sion warning varies depending on the vehi-
cle speed and a following distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead.
There are different frontal collision warning
operations in adaptive cruise control sys-
tem and radar brake support system.
Therefore, the interior buzzer in adaptive
cruise control system sounds a little earlier
than the buzzer in radar brake support sys-
tem. For details of frontal collision warning
in radar brake support system, refer to“Radar brake support system (if equipped)”
in this section.
Handling the radar sensor
For details on radar sensor, refer to “Radar
brake support system” in this section.

WA R N I N G
• Do not use the adaptive cruise con-
trol system in a heavy traffic area
where the frontal collision warning
frequently activates.
• Even if the distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
short, frontal collision warning may
not alert you under the following
circumstances:
– The vehicle ahead of you is going
at almost the same speed as, or
faster than your vehicle.
– When the vehicle ahead of you is
going away from your vehicle.
– Right after setting up to the
desired speed.
– While depressing the accelerator
pedal or right after releasing the
pedal.
– While decelerating by depressing
the brake pedal.

Blinks Beep (one time from interior buzzer) The radar brake support system is dis-
abled temporarily because dirt is
detected on the sensor cover, or milli-
meter-waves from the radar sensor
cause diffused reflection. If the message
does not disappear for a while, wipe the
sensor cover with a soft cloth.

Always replace a blown fuse with a
fuse of the correct amperage. Never
use a substitute such as aluminum
foil or wire to replace a blown fuse. If
you replace a fuse and the new one
blows in a short period of time, you
may have a major electrical problem.
Have your vehicle inspected immedi-
ately by your SUZUKI dealer.
