of the following conditions, and the sys-
tem will be deactivated automatically.
– Wheels of different diameters are fitted
to the vehicle.
– Drive train components overheat as a
result of spinning of a drive wheel in
mud or snow.
NOTE:
Should the light blink, immediately move
the vehicle to a safe place and park it there
to protect the drive train components. If

Four-mode 4WD system
(if equipped)
54P000305
(1) Driving mode switch
The four-mode 4WD system enables you
to select the driving mode according to
driving conditions by operating the driving
mode switch.
Driving modes
AUTO
This mode prioritizes fuel economy in typi-
cal driving conditions. The system
switches the driving mode to 4WD if it
detects wheel spin.SPORT
This mode is appropriate for sporty driving.
The system apportions torque to promote
cornering performance.
SNOW
This mode is appropriate for snowy,
unpaved, and other slippery surfaces. This
mode enhances traction during accelera-
tion on slippery surfaces, and enables sta-
ble cornering on slippery surfaces.
LOCK
This mode is for extricating the car from
snow, mud or sand.
Driving mode switch operation
Operate the driving mode switch according
to the appropriate procedure described
below.
How to turn on driving mode switch
The driving mode switch will activate when
the ignition switch is in “ON” position or the
ignition mode is “ON”.
61MM0B005
Selecting AUTO mode
Push “PUSH AUTO” part (2) of the driving
mode switch.
Selecting SPORT mode
Turn the dial (3) of the driving mode switch
clockwise to “SPORT” position.
Selecting SNOW mode
Turn the dial (3) of the driving mode switch
counterclockwise to “SNOW” position.
Selecting LOCK mode
When the vehicle speed is less than 60
km/h (37 mph) and the SNOW mode is
selected, push “LOCK” part (4) of the driv-
ing mode switch.
NOTE:
If the vehicle speed exceeds about 60 km/h
in the LOCK mode, the driving mode
changes to the SNOW mode automatically.
Even when the vehicle speed reduces, on

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.
NOTICE
• 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
places such as sand and mud
where front wheels tend to race.
– When any wheel is in the air for
such reason as running off the
road, do not race it needlessly.
(Continued)
NOTICE
(Continued)
• If the 4WD warning light comes on
or blinks when driving, there may
be something wrong with the four-
mode 4WD system. Have the sys-
tem inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
NOTICE
Unevenly worn tires can cause prob-
lems with the 4WD system. Rotate the
tires according to the maintenance
schedule. Refer to “Tires” and “Main-
tenance schedule” in “INSPECTION
AND MAINTENANCE” section for
proper tire rotation procedure.

DRIVING TIPS
54P00-01E
Driving on slippery roads
60G089S
On wet roads, you should drive at a lower
speed than you do on dry roads due to
possible slippage of tires during braking.
When driving on icy, snow-covered or
muddy roads, reduce your speed and
avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt braking,
or sharp steering movements.
Four-mode 4WD models
Your four-mode 4WD is designed to get
better traction on slippery roads than 2-
wheel drive models. However, your four-
mode 4WD will not have as much traction
in deep snow, mud or sand as multipur-
pose 4WD vehicles. You should not
attempt to drive your four-mode 4WD in
deep snow, mud or sand. Four-mode 4WDmodels are not sport/utility vehicles, and
are not designed for off-road use.
Tire chains
Tire chains should only be used if they are
needed to increase traction or are required
by law. Check that the chains you use are
the correct size for your vehicle’s tires.
Also check that there is enough clearance
between the fenders and the chains as
installed on the tires.
Install the chains on the front tires tightly,
according to the chain manufacturer’s
instructions. Retighten the chains after
driving about 1.0 km (1/2 mile) if neces-
sary. With the chains installed, drive slowly.
WA R N I N G
Do not hold the brake pedal down too
long or too often while going down a
steep or long hill. This could cause
the brakes to overheat, resulting in
reduced braking efficiency. Failure to
take this precaution could result in
loss of vehicle control.
NOTICE
When descending a downhill, Never
turn the ignition key to “LOCK” posi-
tion or press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “LOCK”
(OFF). Emission control system dam-
age may result.
NOTICE
• If you hear the chains hitting
against the vehicle body while driv-
ing, stop and tighten them.
• If your vehicle is equipped with full
wheel caps, remove the wheel caps
before installing the chains or the
wheel caps can be damaged by the
chain bands.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
54P00-01E
How to understand each table
54P000750
(1) Model of vehicle
(2) Maintenance item
(3) Driving condition
Necessary maintenance operation and timing will vary depending on your driving condition.
Some items have two different conditions of “Normal” and “Severe”, which are defined as follows.
“Normal”: If driving is usually done under normal driving condition
“Severe”: If driving is usually done under severe driving condition
For details of each condition, refer to “Maintenance recommended under severe driving condition” in this section.
If this part is blank, there is no classification in driving conditions.
Forgasoline engine models
Select maintenance timing by mileage (odometer reading) or
whichever comes first.
