Warning and indicator lightsNOTE:
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 indicated
on 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-inf
lation 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 tu rns off after blink-
ing, indicating that the monitoring
system has recovered, you should
still have the system checked by your
authorized SUZUKI dealer.

BEFORE DRIVING
75RM4-01E
Refer to “Tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)” in the “OPERATING YOUR VEHI-
CLE” section for additional details on the
tire pressure monitoring system. Refer to
“Tires” in the “INSPECTION AND MAIN-
TENANCE” section for information on
maintaining proper tire pressure.
WA R N I N G
The load-carrying capacity of your
tires is reduced at lower inflation
pressures. If your tires are even mod-
erately under-inflated, the load on the
tires may exceed the load-carrying
capacity of the tires, which could lead
to tire failure. The low tire pressure
warning light will not alert you to this
condition, because it only comes on
when one or more of your tires
becomes significan tly under-inflated.
Check and adjust your tire inflation
pressure at least once a month. Refer
to “Tires” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section.
WA R N I N G
Continuing to drive with the low tire
pressure warning light on can lead to
an accident, resulting in severe injury
or death.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on and stays on, reduce your
speed and avoid abrupt steering and
braking. Be aware that driving on a
significantly unde r-inflated tire can
cause the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure, and may affect
steering control and brake effective-
ness. Stop the vehicle in a safe place
as soon as possible and check your
tires.
• If you have a flat tire, replace it with
the spare tire (if e quipped). Refer to
“Jacking instructions” in the
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section
for the tire replacement method.
Also refer to “Replacing tires and/
or wheels” for instructions on how
to restore normal operation of the
TPMS after you have had a flat tire. (Continued)
WA R N I N G

• If your vehicle is equipped with a
flat tire repair kit instead of a spare
tire, refer to “Flat tire repair kit (if
equipped)” in the “EMERGENCY
SERVICE” section for instructions
on how to perform an emergency
repair of a flat tire.
• If one or more of your tires is under-inflated, adjust the inflation
pressure of all tires to the recom-
mended inflation pressure as soon
as possible.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
NOTE:
It is normal for water to drip from the air
conditioning system after use.
4) Check that the hood is fully closed andlatched.
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) Lead-acid battery solution level
5) Windshield washer fluid level
6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the
vehicle. Check that you cannot open the 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 the “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 consumptionIt 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 d riving. If it is not,
it can fly up unexpectedly during
driving, obstructing your view and
resulting in an accident.

On models equipped with the ENG A-
STOP system, the hill hold control system
is activated when the engine is restarted
after being stopped automatically, even if
the previous conditions are not met.
NOTE:
When the hill hold control system is acti-
vated, you may hear a sound coming from
the engine, or you may feel hardness of
the brake pedal. These are normal and do
not indicate a malfunction.
75RM224
For the instrument cluster with tachometer,
if the message shown in the above illustra-
tion appears on the information display,
there may be a problem with the hill
descent control system (if equipped) and
the hill hold control system. Have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
The hill hold control system will not acti-
vate while this message is displayed.
Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) (if equipped)The tire pressure monitoring system is
designed to alert you when one or more of
the tires on your vehicle is significantly
under-inflated. The tire pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS) sensor containing a
unique identification code is mounted on
each wheel. The TPMS sensors transmit
tire pressure signals to the receiver of the
tire pressure monitoring system controller.
When the inflation pressure of one or more
tires indicates signif icant under-inflation,
the low tire pressure warning light shown
below comes on.
NOTE:
The word “telltale” in this section, means
an indicator.
Low tire pressure warning light
52D305
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) that illumi-
nates a low tire pressure telltale when one
or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure
telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inf lation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may

The low tire pressure warning light can
come on due to normal causes such as
natural air leakage and pressure changes
caused by changes in temperature or
atmospheric pressure. Adjusting the air
pressure in the tires to the pressure shown
on the tire information placard should
cause the low tire pressure warning light to
turn off.
To make the low tire pressure warning light
go off, adjust the tire pressures when the
tires are cold, and drive the vehicle for
about 10 minutes.
When the adjusted tire pressure is recog-
nized, the low tire pressure warning light
will go off and the information display
shows the current tire pressure (if you
select the TPMS monitor).If the light turns on again shortly after
adjusting the pressure in your tires, you
may have a flat tire. If you have a flat tire,
replace it with the spare tire (if equipped).
Refer to “Jacking instructions” in the
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section. Refer
to “Replacing tires and/or wheels” for
instructions on how to restore normal oper-
ation of the tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem after you have
had a flat tire.
WA R N I N G
Continuing to drive with the low tire
pressure warning light on can lead to
an accident, resulting in severe injury
or death.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on and stays on, reduce your
speed and avoid abrupt steering and
braking. Be aware that driving on a
significantly unde r-inflated tire can
cause the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure, and may affect

NOTE:
The information display shows the above
warning and indicator message when this
light comes on.
TPMS limitationsThe tire pressure monitoring system may
not function properly under certain circum-
stances. In the following situations, the low
tire pressure warning light may come on
and remain on or may blink.
• When you replace a flat tire with thespare tire.
• When you include a spare tire during a
tire rotation.
• When the TPMS sensor is damaged during a tire replacement or liquid seal-
ants are used to r epair a flat tire.
• When the TPMS sensor’s electronic sig- nal is disturbed in one of the following
ways:
– Electric devices or fa cilities using simi-
lar radio wave frequencies are nearby.
– A metallic film that may cause radio wave interference is attached on the
window.
– A lot of snow or ice covers the vehicle, in particular, around the wheels or
wheel housings.
– Snow tires that are not installed with genuine TPMS sensors or tire chains
are used.
• When you use non-genuine SUZUKI wheels or tires.
• When the pressure of any tire is too high.
• When there is a problem with the
receiver of the TPMS controller.
NOTICE
The tire pressure sensors can be
damaged if you do not take proper
precautions.
• We highly recommend that youhave tires repaired or replaced by
an authorized SUZUKI dealer. The
tire pressure sensors can be dam-
aged by installation or removal of
tires.
• Do not use liquid sealants for a flat tire unless your vehicle is equipped
with a flat tire repair kit instead of a
spare tire.
NOTICE
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on frequently, there may be
something wrong with one or more of
the tires, tire pressure sensors, or the
monitoring system.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on frequently, have your vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.

5) When the display shows the messageshown in the above illustration, the set-
ting is completed.
Replacing tires and/or wheelsIf you got a flat tire and replaced it with the
spare tire, SUZUKI recommends that you
have an authorized SUZUKI dealer mount
a new tire on the wheel that had the flat
tire. The TPMS is already set up to recog-
nize the ID code of the original wheel, and
normal TPMS operati on will be restored.
If you need to replace any wheels on your
vehicle, your dealer must check that TPMS
sensors are installed in the new wheels
and must set up the TPMS to recognize
the new sensors.
NOTE:
A TPMS sensor is not installed in the spare
tire. You should use the spare tire only in
an emergency situation, and should
replace the spare tire as soon as possible
to restore normal TPMS operation.
WA R N I N G
Use of tires or wheels not recom-
mended by SUZUKI can result in fail-
ure of the TPMS.
When replacing tires and wheels, use
only tires and wheels recommended
by SUZUKI as standard or optional
equipment for your vehicle. Refer to
“Tires” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section for addi-
tional information.
