Tire rotation4-tire rotation
54G114
To avoid uneven wear of your tires and to
prolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-
trated. Tires should be rotated every 10000
km (6000 miles). After rotation, adjust front
and rear tire pressures to the specification
listed on your vehicle’s tire information
label.
NOTE:
For Mexico:
For additional instruction, refer to the
“SUPPLEMENT” section at the end of this
book.
Compact spare tire (if equipped)
54G115
(1) Wear indicator
(2) Indicator location mark
Your vehicle comes equipped with a com-
pact spare tire. It is designed to save
space in your storage area, and its lighter
weight facilitates installing the spare tire
when getting a flat tire. It is only intended
for temporary emergency use, until the
conventional tire can be repaired or
replaced. The inflation pressure of the
compact spare tire should be checked at
least once a month. Use a quality pocket-
type inflation pressure gauge and set at
420 kPa (60 psi). At the same time, check
that the tire is stored securely. If it is not,
tighten it. Note that two or more compact spare tires
should not be used on one vehicle simulta-
neously.
WA R N I N G
The compact spare tire and wheel are
intended for temporary emergency
use only. Continuous use of this
spare can result in tire failure and
loss of control. Always observe these
precautions when using this spare:
• Your vehicle should be handled in a
different way when using this
spare.
• Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
• Replace this spare with a standard tire and wheel as soon as possible.
• Use of this spare will reduce
ground clearance.
• Recommended air pressure for this spare is 420 kPa (60 psi).
• Do not use tire chains on the com- pact spare. If you must use tire
chains, rearrange the wheels so
standard tires and wheels are fitted
to the front axle.
• The compact spare tire has a much
shorter tread life than the conven-
tional tires on your vehicle.
Replace the tire as soon as the
tread wear indicator appears.
• When replacing the compact spare tire, use a replacement tire with the
exact same size and construction.

IMPORTANT
The flat tire repair kit cannot be used in
the following cases. Consult a SUZUKI
dealer or a roadside assistance service.
• Cuts or piercing in the tire treadlarger than approx. 4 mm.
• Cuts in the tire side wall.
• Tire damage caused by driving with considerably reduced tire pressure or
even with deflated tire.
• The tire bead completely unseated outside of the rim.
• The rim damaged.
Small punctures in the tire tread,
caused by a nail or a screw, can be
sealed with the flat tire repair kit.
Do not remove nails or screws from the
tire during an e mergency repair. Flat tire repair kit contents

Flat tire repair kit sealant is harmful if
swallowed, or if it comes in contact
with skin or eyes. If swallowed, do
not induce vomiting. Give plenty of
water (if possible charcoal slurry)
and seek medical attention immedi-
ately. If sealant gets in eyes, flush
eyes with water and seek medical
attention. Wash thoroughly after han-
dling. Solution can be poisonous to
animals. Keep out of the reach of
children and animals.
NOTICE
Replace the sealant before expiry
date indicated on the label of the
sealant bottle. To purchase new seal-
ant, see your SUZUKI dealer.

5) Remove the plug from the filler hose (3)and insert the filler hose into the tire
valve (8).

6) Hold the bottle (2) with bottom upwardsand pump the bottle to fill the entire bot-
tle contents (sealant) into the tire.
Thereafter pull off the filler hose and
firmly screw the valve insert into the tire
valve again. If the valve insert is dirty or
lost, use the enclosed spare valve
insert.

7) Screw the air hose (10) of the compres- sor (1) to the tire valve (8). Fit the
power plug (11) to the accessory
socket. For a manual transaxle or an
Auto Gear Shift vehicle, shift from “R”
(Reverse) into “N” (Neutral). Start the
engine. Switch on the compressor.
Inflate the tire to the required air pres-
sure. If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessary
seal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the screw of the air hose.

NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer 10 minutes without cease. It
can cause overheating of the com-
pressor.

8) Affix the speed restriction label from theair compressor in the driver’s field of
view.
9) Make a short drive immediately after inflating the tire to the required air pres-
sure. Drive carefully with a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
10)Carry on driving carefully to the nearest
SUZUKI dealer or a tire repair shop. 11)After 10 km (6 mile) running, check the
tire pressure with the pressure gauge of
the compressor. If the air pressure indi-
cates more than 130 kPa (1.3 bar), the
emergency repair is completed. But, if
the air pressure indicates less than the
required air pressure, correct the tire
pressure to the required air pressure. If
the tire pressure has dropped below
130 kPa (1.3 bar), the flat tire repair kit
cannot provide the necessary seal. Do
not use the tire and consult a SUZUKI
dealer or a roadside assistance service.
WA R N I N G
Do not affix the speed restriction
label to the air bag. Also do not affix
it to the warning light indicator or to
the speedometer.
WA R N I N G
Check the tire pressure and confirm
the completion o f the emergency
repair after 10 km (6 mile) of running.
NOTICE
Have the tire renewed at the nearest
SUZUKI dealer. When reusing the
sealed tire, consult a tire repair shop.
The wheel can be reused after wiping
sealant off completely with cloth in
order to prevent rust, but the tire
valve and tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) sensor (if equipped)
must be renewed.
Dispose of the sealant bottle at a
SUZUKI dealer or in accordance with
your regional codes and practices.
After using the seal ant bottle, replace
it with a new bottle from your SUZUKI
dealer.

Using compressor to inflate a tire1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “P” (Park) if your vehicle has a
CVT, or shift into “R” (Reverse) if your
vehicle has a manual transaxle or Auto
Gear Shift.
2) Take out the compressor.
3) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire valve.
4) Connect the air ho se of the compressor
to the tire valve.
5) Connect the power plug of the com- pressor to the accessory socket. For a
manual transaxle or an Auto Gear Shift
vehicle, shift from “R” (Reverse) into “N”
(Neutral). Start the engine. Switch on
the compressor. Inflate the tire to the
required air pressure.
Jump-starting instructions
1) Use only a 12-volt lead-acid battery to
jump-start your vehicle. Position the
good 12-volt lead-acid battery close to
your vehicle so that the jump leads will
reach both batteries. When using a bat-
tery installed on another vehicle, check
that two vehicles do not touch each
other. Set the parking brakes fully on
both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.
WA R N I N G
• Never attempt to jump-start your
vehicle if the lead-acid battery
appears to be frozen. Batteries in
this condition may explode.
• When making jump lead connec- tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Lead-acid batteries produce flam-
mable hydrogen gas. Keep flames
and sparks away from the battery
or an explosion may occur. Never
smoke when working near the bat-
tery.
• If the booster ba ttery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your lead-acid battery discharges repeatedly, for no apparent reason,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam- age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
below.
If you are in doubt, call for qualified
road service.
NOTICE
Your vehicle should not be started by
pushing or towing. This starting
method could result in permanent
damage to the catalytic converter.
Use jump leads to start a vehicle with
a weak or flat battery.
