• When you reconnect the negative (–)
terminal to the battery, the value of driv-
ing range will be shown after driving for a
period of time.
Average Speed
If you selected average speed the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display indicates
the last value of average speed from previ-
ous driving when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON” position or the engine
switch is pressed to change the ignition
mode to “ON”. Unless you reset the value
of average speed, the display indicates the
value of average speed which includes
average speed during previous driving.
To reset the value of average speed, push

minal to the battery, the value of average
speed will be shown after driving for a
period of time.Oil life (for diesel engine models)
The display indicates the remaining dis-
tance until the timing calculated for the
next engine oil and oil filter change. When
the remaining distance becomes 0 km, the
oil change request light in the instrument
cluster also starts blinking to alert that you
should change the engine oil and oil filter
immediately.
If you selected oil life the last time you
drove the vehicle, the display indicates “---”
for a few seconds and then indicates the
current distance until the next engine oil
change is due, when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON” position or the engine
switch is pressed to change the ignition
mode to “ON”.
Whenever the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, the oil life monitoring must be
reset in order to monitor the next oil and oil
filter change timing properly. To reset the
indicator, consult your SUZUKI dealer.
When the oil life monitoring is reset, the oil
life monitoring indicates 30000 km. If the
oil change request light was blinking, it will
go out.
NOTICE
Change the engine oil and oil filter
immediately when the remaining dis-
tance of the oil life monitoring indica-
tion becomes close to 0 km. If you
keep operating the engine with 0 km
indication of oil life monitoring,
severe engine damage can result.

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

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

Whenever the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, the light must be reset to monitor
the next oil change timing properly. To
reset the light, consult your SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTE:
• Note that engine oil degrades faster
under the following conditions:
– Mainly urban use of the vehicle,
requiring more frequent regeneration
of the DPF
®;
– Use of the vehicle for short drives, in
which the engine does not have time
to reach its regular operating tem-
perature;
– Repeated interruptions to the regen-
eration process signaled by the DPF
®
warning light coming on.
• Since special procedures and tools are
required, ask your authorized SUZUKI
dealer to reset the oil life monitoring sys-
tem for diesel engine.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
54P00-01E
NOTE:
It is normal for water to drip from the air
conditioning system after use.
4) Check that the hood is fully closed and
latched.
5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights,
brake lights and horn for proper opera-
tion.
6) Adjust the seat and head restraint.
7) Check the brake pedal and the parking
brake lever.
8) Adjust the mirrors.
9) Check that you and all passengers
have properly fastened your seat belts.
10)Check that all warning lights come on
as the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed
to change the ignition mode to “ON”.
11)Check all gauges.
12)Check that the brake system warning
light turns off when the parking brake is
released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel
tank, perform the following under-hood
checks:
1) Engine oil level
2) Coolant level
3) Brake fluid level
4) Battery solution level
5) Windshield washer fluid level
6) Hood latch operation
Pull the hood release handle inside the
vehicle. Check that you cannot openthe hood all the way without releasing
the secondary latch. Close the hood
securely after checking for proper latch
operation. See the item “All latches,
hinges and locks” of “Chassis, body
and others” in “Maintenance schedule”
in “INSPECTION AND MAINTE-
NANCE” section for lubrication sched-
ule.
Once a month, or each time you fill your
fuel tank, check the tire pressure using a
tire pressure gauge. Also check the tire
pressure of the spare tire.Engine oil consumption
It is normal for the engine to consume
some engine oil during normal vehicle
operation.
The amount of engine oil consumption
depends on viscosity and quality of the oil
and your driving conditions.
More oil is consumed during high-speed
driving and when there is frequent acceler-
ation and deceleration. Under high loads,
your engine also will consume more oil.
A new engine also consumes more oil,
since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned.
New engines reach the normal level of oil
consumption only after approximately
5000 km (3000 miles) driving.
Oil consumption:
Max. 1.0 L per 1000 km
(1 Qt. per 600 miles)
When judging the amount of oil consump-
tion, note that the oil may become diluted
and it is difficult to judge the accurate oil
level.
As an example, if a vehicle is used for
repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-
mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not
show any drop in the oil level at all, even
after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-
ing. This is because the oil gradually
becomes diluted with fuel or moisture,
WA R N I N G
Check that the hood is fully closed
and latched before driving. If it is not,
it can fly up unexpectedly during
driving, obstructing your view and
resulting in an accident.

making it appear that the oil level has not
changed.
You should also be aware that the diluting
ingredients evaporate out when the vehicle
is subsequently driven at high speeds,
such as on an expressway, making it
appear that oil is excessively consumed
after high-speed driving.Ignition switch
(vehicle without keyless push
start system)
65D61160B041
The ignition switch has the following four
positions:
LOCK
This is the normal parking position. It is the
only position in which the key can be
removed.
WA R N I N G
To avoid possible injury, do not oper-
ate controls by reaching through the
steering wheel.

Caution when stopping the engine with
turbocharger
When stopping the engine after climbing or
high speed driving, let the engine idle for
about one minute or more (if it is not pro-
hibited) to cool down the turbocharger and
engine oil. This is to prevent the engine oil
from over-deteriorating. Deteriorated
engine oil will damage the bearings of the
turbocharger.Restarting diesel engine after fuel-
empty stop
If the engine stops and the low fuel warn-
ing light and the malfunction indicator light
come on, use the following procedure:
1) Fill the fuel tank.

on after the engine started, there may be
some problem with the engine. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the engine
inspected.
If the master warning indicator light
blinks and the engine cannot be started
Your keyless push start system remote
controller may not be sensed as being
within the interior workable area. Try again
