the other hand, the driving mode does not
return to the LOCK mode automatically. You
should select the LOCK mode according to
the driving conditions.
NOTE:
• The information display shows current
driving mode.
• When the ignition switch is turned to
“ON” position or the engine switch is
pressed to change the ignition mode to
“ON”, the AUTO mode is selected auto-
matically.
• The driving mode switch can be oper-
ated when the vehicle is either stopped
or moving.
• Check that the front wheels are in the
straight ahead position when operating
the driving mode switch.
• While making turns or accelerating and
decelerating, operating the driving mode
switch, turning the ignition switch to
“ACC” or “LOCK” position or pressing
the engine switch to change the ignition
mode to “ACC” or “LOCK” may cause a
shock, but this is not a system malfunc-
tion.
• When you operate your vehicle under
conditions that involve wheel spin, such
as driving off-road in the sand or water
or when a wheel has run off the road, the
difference in the amount of revolution
between front wheels and rear wheels
increases (wheels run idle). If this state
continues, the oil temperature of the
driving system parts increases. The 4WD warning light warns of this
condition by blinking. At the same time,
the information display shows this mes-
sage: “AWD SYSTEM HIGH TEMP
AWD IS OFF”.
57L30042
When the 4WD warning light blinks, park
the vehicle at a safe place and run the
engine idle. After a while, the 4WD warn-
ing light will go out and the system will
resume.
Warning and indicator messages
The information display shows the warning
and indicator message when the four-
mode 4WD system is operated, or has a
problem.

• Note that 4WD vehicles are not all-
around vehicles. Observe the fol-
lowing instructions when driving
your vehicle.
– Do not drive through water such
as by crossing a river.
– Do not drive continuously in

ENG A-STOP system
(engine auto stop start
system) (if equipped)
The ENG A-STOP system (engine auto
stop start system) automatically stops and
restarts the engine without operating the
ignition switch or the engine switch when
the vehicle is stopped, such as at a traffic
signal or in a traffic jam, to reduce exhaust
gases and fuel consumption.
• When the vehicle will be stopped for a
long time or when you will leave the
vehicle unattended, turn the ignition
switch to “LOCK” position or press the
engine switch to stop the engine.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the auto air
conditioning system, you can change the
auto engine stop condition via the informa-
tion display. Refer to “Information display”
in “BEFORE DRIVING” section.
72M2042
The ENG A-STOP system is automatically
activated when the ignition switch is turned
to “ON” position or the engine switch is
pressed to change the ignition mode to
“ON”.
The system activation also requires the fol-
lowing conditions:
• Driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• Driver’s door is closed.
• Engine hood is closed.
For more details, refer to the explanation
below.
WA R N I N G
• Do not get out of the vehicle when
the engine is stopping by the ENG
A-STOP system. If the driver’s seat
belt is unfastened and the driver’s
door is opened, the engine will
stall.
• When the engine does not restart
automatically even if you operate it
properly, start the engine using the
ignition switch or engine switch.
– Continuously stopping on the
road may result in rear crash.
– In case the vehicle moves, the
steering and braking operation
will require more efforts.
NOTICE
Only use the vehicle battery types
that have been approved by SUZUKI
vehicle manufacturer, otherwise you
could damage your vehicle, and the
ENG A-STOP system could not be
available. If a vehicle battery has to
be replaced, consult your authorized
SUZUKI dealer.

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.
