Warning and indicator lights
NOTE:
If warning and indicator lights blink or
come on, the corresponding messages
may be shown on the information display.
Low tire pressure warning light
(if equipped)
52D305
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your
vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) that uses a low
tire pressure warning light to inform you
when one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated.
When the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “ON”, this light
comes on briefly so you can check that the
light is working.
When the low tire pressure warning light is
lit, one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. You should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure as indicatedon the vehicle’s tire information placard.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability. Each tire, including the spare,
should be checked at least once a month
when cold and set to the recommended
inflation pressure as specified in the vehi-
cle placard.
The low tire pressure warning light is also
used to inform you of a TPMS malfunction.
When the system detects a malfunction,
this light will blink for about 75 seconds
and then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will be repeated after the
ignition switch is turned to “ON” position or
the engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to “ON” as long as the mal-
function exists.
NOTE:
The low tire pressure warning light may not
come on immediately if you have a sudden
loss of air pressure.
WA R N I N G
Failure to take corrective action when
the low tire pressure warning light is
not working or when it comes on and
blinks while driving can lead to an
accident.
If the low tire pressure warning light
does not come on for 2 seconds after
the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is
pressed to change the ignition mode
to “ON”, or comes on and blinks
while driving, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer. Even if the light turns off after
blinking, indicating that the monitor-
ing system has recovered, you
should still have the system checked
by your authorized SUZUKI dealer.

Oil change request light(if equipped)
79JM007
Your vehicle has the oil life monitoring sys-
tem and related oil change request light
that alerts you to change the engine oil and
oil filter.
When this light comes on or blinks, change
engine oil and oil filter immediately.
For details on how to change the engine oil
and oil filter, refer to “Changing engine oil
and filter” in “INSPECTION AND MAINTE-
NANCE” section.
Gasoline engine model and diesel engine
model have different lighting methods for
oil change request light. Check an appro-
priate method from the following descrip-
tions, according to your vehicle model.
(For gasoline engine model)
This light comes on for several seconds
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “ON” so you
can check that light is working.If either of odometer reading or time is
reached to the value which is set by the
system, this light blinks when the ignition
switch or engine switch is in “ON” position.
In addition, the message is shown on the
information display to tell you it is neces-
sary to change the engine oil and oil filter.
When the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, and the oil life monitoring system
is reset, this light will go out.
Whenever the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, the light must be reset to monitor
the next oil change timing properly. The
light will go out after the reset. For the
resetting procedure, refer to “Information
display” in this section.
NOTE:
This light is used to facilitate the oil and oil
filter change according to the maintenance
schedule.(For diesel engine model)
This light comes on for several seconds
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “ON” so you
can check that light is working.
If this light blinks when the engine is run-
ning, you should change the engine oil and
oil filter immediately since the monitoring sys-
tem has calculated that oil life has been
diminished by a deterioration of engine oil.
When the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, and the oil life monitoring system
is reset, this light will go out.
NOTICE
Severe engine damage will result, if
you keep operating the engine after
this light comes on.
Change the engine oil and oil filter
immediately when the light blinks.

Auto-on headlight system
54P000236
The auto-on headlight system automati-
cally turns on all lights that are operated by
the lighting control lever on the steering
column, when the following three condi-
tions are all met.
Conditions for auto-on headlight system
operation:
1) It is dark around the light sensor (5).
2) The lighting control lever is in “AUTO”
position.
3) You press the engine switch to change
the ignition mode to “ON”.
This system is operated by a signal from
the light sensor (5) on the windshield. Do
not cover the sensor (5). Otherwise, the
system will not work correctly.NOTE:
The light sensor reacts even to infrared
rays, so it may operate incorrectly when
there are strong infrared rays.
Reprogramming the automatic light
function
The following settings of the automatic
light function can be customized to your
preference. Please contact an authorized
SUZUKI dealer if you want the function
reprogrammed.
Sensitivity of the light sensor
The amount of outside light needed to turn
the lights on and off is pre-set at the fac-
tory. The sensitivity of the light sensor can
be adjusted so that the lights are turned on
and off when it is:
• lighter outside than the pre-set condition,
or
• darker outside than the pre-set conditionRain-triggered automatic lighting oper-
ation
The setting of the auto-on headlight sys-
tem can be changed to make it turn on the
headlights:
• when the rain sensor senses heavy rain-
fall
• when the rain sensor senses light and
heavy rainfall (in coordination with rain-
sensing wiper operation), or
• independently from rain-sensing wiper
operation.
Light reminder buzzer
The interior buzzer continuously beeps if
you open the driver’s door without turning
off the headlights and position lights. This
function is triggered under the following
condition:
The headlights and/or position lights are
on even after the ignition switch is turned
off, or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “LOCK”
(OFF).
The buzzer stops sounding when you turn
off the headlights and position lights.
NOTE:
A message is indicated on the information
display in the instrument cluster while the
buzzer is sounding.
WA R N I N G
It takes about 5 seconds for the light
sensor to react to a change in light-
ing conditions. To help avoid an acci-
dent due to reduced visibility, turn on
your headlights before driving into a
tunnel, parking structure, etc.
