SHVS (Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki)The SHVS (Smart Hybrid Vehicle by
Suzuki) of this vehicle is a system that
uses generators with motor function (ISG)
to operate the following functions accord-
ing to the driving situations, to increase
quietness of the engine and fuel efficiency.
ISG stands for Integrated Starter Genera-
tor.
•Deceleration energy regenerating func-
tion
:
This function generates intensively
during deceleration by using the ISG.
When generation while driving is not
required, the ISG can be stopped to
reduce the load on the engine, leading to
improved fuel economy.
• Motor assistance function: This function assists the engine by using
the ISG as a motor to reduce the power
output of the engine, leading to improved
fuel economy.
• Starter motor function: This function restarts the engine after
being stopped by the ENG A-STOP sys-
tem by using the ISG through the drive
belt.
NOTE:
When you restart the engine by pushing
the engine switch, the ordinary starter
motor is used and you will hear a gear
engagement noise. Energy flow indicator
With the energy flow indicator in the instru-
ment cluster, you can check whether or not
the ISG is functioning.
• Normal driving conditions:
The ISG is not functioning.
81P40260
• The deceleration energy regeneratingfunction is functioning while the vehicle is
decelerated in normal driving conditions:
The batteries are being charged.
81P40270
• Engine has been aut omatically stopped
when the vehicle is stopped:
Stored power is being used by electrical
components, such a s the audio system,
without the batteries being charged.
81P40280
• The starter motor function is functioning when the engine has been automatically
stopped:
Stored power is being used by the ISG,
without the batteries being charged.

• The motor assistance function is func-tioning during moderate accelerating:
The ISG assists the engine.
81P40300
If all of the following conditions are met,
the motor assistance function is function-
ing.
• To accelerate, the accelerator pedal is a
bit more depressed.
• For manual transaxle, the gearshift lever is in a position other than “N” (Neutral).
• For CVT, the gearshift lever is in the “D” position.
• The brake pedal and/or clutch pedal (if
equipped) is(are) not depressed.
• For CVT, when driving with the vehicle speed from right after starting to about
100 km/h and the engine revolution is
lower than about 3900 rpm.
• The time has elapsed one second or
more from the previous operation of the
motor assistance function.
• The ABS or ESP
® system has not been
activated. • The lithium-ion battery is charged more
than a certain amount, and the tempera-
ture inside the battery is within the speci-
fied range.
• The engine coolant temperature is within the specified range.
NOTE:
When the accelerator pedal is depressed
all the way down for quickly accelerating,
the motor assistance function will not oper-
ate.
Battery indicator
The segments in the battery indicator (1)
give an approximate indication of the
charge of the lithium-ion battery.
81P40310
NOTE:
The energy flow indicator gives an approx-
imate indication. The indication may be
delayed or inaccurate under certain condi-
tions, for example, when the outside tem-
perature is low. Deceleration energy regenerating indi-
cator light
62R0361
When the deceleration energy regenerat-
ing function is working, the deceleration
energy regenerating indicator light (1)
comes on.
NOTE:
• If the gearshift lever is in the “N” (Neu-
tral) position, this light does not come
on.
• You can choose that this light comes on or does not come on via the setting
mode of the information display. For

Eco-Cool (if equipped)When driving while using the air condi-
tioner, cold air is stored in the cooling stor-
age medium of the air conditioner unit.
Since stored cold air will be blown into the
vehicle when the engine has been stopped
automatically by the ENG A-STOP system,
the rise of the inside temperature can be
reduced when the air conditioner is not
running.
For the automatic heating and air condi-
tioning system, reducing the rise of the
inside temperature increases the length of
time that the engine is stopped automati-
cally, leading to improved fuel economy.
NOTE:
Sufficient cold air may not be stored if the
vehicle has not been running for very long
or in a traffic jam. The effect varies
depending on the outside temperature and
the air conditioner settings.
I/S AC Settings (if equipped)• When using the automatic heating andair conditioning system (if equipped),
you can select one of the following set-
tings via the setting mode of the informa-
tion display.
– Standard
– Economy
–Comfort
For details on how to use the information
display, refer to “Information display” in
the “BEFORE DRIVING” section.
• When “Economy” is selected, engine auto stop condition is eased, compared
with “Standard”. Engine auto stop condi-
tion will occur more f requently, the stop
time will be longer, leading to reduction
of fuel consumption.
• When “Comfort” is sel ected, engine auto
stop condition becomes severe, com-
pared with “Standard”. Engine auto stop
condition will occur less frequently, the
stop time will be shorter, leading to more
comfortable cabin condition by air condi-
tioner.
Cruise control (if equipped)The cruise control system allows you to
maintain a steady speed without keeping
your foot on the accelerator pedal. The
controls for operating the cruise control
system are on the steering wheel.
You can use the cruise control system
under the following conditions:
• For manual transaxle vehicle, the gear position is in 3rd, 4th or 5th.
• For CVT vehicle, the select lever is in “D” position, or the gear position is in 3rd,
4th, 5th, 6th or 7th in the manual mode
(if equipped).
• For Auto Gear Shift vehicle, the select lever is in “D” position, or the gear posi-
tion is in 3rd, 4th or 5th in the manual
mode.
• The vehicle speed is about 45 km/h (28
mph) or higher.
WA R N I N G
To help avoid loss of vehicle control,
do not use the cruise control system
when driving in heavy traffic, on slip-
pery or winding roads, or on steep
downhills.

Once you have determined that the condi-
tions are once again safe, reset the cruise
speed.
Changing speed temporarilyWhen the cruising speed is maintained,
you can temporarily accelerate or deceler-
ate.
To accelerate, depre ss the accelerator
pedal. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle will return to the set
speed.
To decelerate, depress the brake pedal.
The set speed will be canceled and the set
indicator (5) or “SET” indicator light (7) will
go off.
To resume the previously set speed, push
up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3) and turn
on the set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator
light (7) again when vehicle speed is
above 45 km/h (28 mph). The vehicle will
accelerate to and maintain the previously
set speed.
NOTE:
For CVT with manual mode or Auto Gear
Shift vehicle, when the cruising speed is
maintained, you cannot decelerate by
using the engine brake even if you down-
shift from higher gear to 3rd in the manual
mode.
To decelerate while the cruise control is
on, depress the brake pedal or push down
the “RES +/SET –” switch (3).
Changing cruising speedUsing the accelerator pedal
To reset at a faster cruising speed, accel-
erate to the desired speed using the accel-
erator pedal and push down the “RES +/

Dual camera brake support (if equipped)Dual camera brake support is a system
that detects obstacles or partition lines in
front of your vehicle by the stereo camera,
attempts to avoid a crash by giving warn-
ing to the driver, and attempts to reduce
damage in the event of a crash. NOTE:
• While the system is working, if a vehicle
in front of you moves outside of the ste-
reo camera’s detection field or the vehi-
cle can no longer be detected, the
system may stop functioning.
• While the system is working, a braking sound may be heard even if you do not
depress the brake pedal, but this is nor-
mal.
WA R N I N G
• Dual camera brake support has lim-its and may not function properly
depending on the driving condi-
tions. Do not rely excessively on
the system and always drive in a
safe manner.
• For safety reasons, do not check the operation of the system by
yourself.
