Odometer
The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven. Instantaneous fuel consumption
The display shows the value of instanta-
neous fuel consumption only when the
vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
• The display does not show the value
unless the vehicle is moving.
• Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial set-
ting are indicated as L/100km, km/L or
MPG.
• The indicated maximum value of instan- taneous fuel consumption is one of the
followings. No more than the maximum
value will be indicated on the display
even if the actual instantaneous fuel
consumption is higher.
– For L/100km setting: 30
– For km/L setting: 50
– For MPG setting: 99.9
• The indication on the display may be delayed if fuel consumption is greatly
affected by driving conditions.
• The display shows estimated values. Indications may not be the same as
actual values.
• For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting, you can change the units that instantaneous fuel
consumption is displayed in. Refer to
“Average fuel consumption” in this sec-
tion. Average fuel consumption
If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove
the vehicle, the dis-
play shows the last value of average fuel
consumption from previous driving when
the ignition switch is turned to “ON” posi-
tion. Unless you reset the value of average
fuel consumption, the display indicates the
value of average fuel consumption which
includes average fuel consumption during
previous driving.
To reset the average fuel consumption to
zero, push and hold the indicator selector
knob (2) for a while when the display
shows the average fuel consumption.
NOTE:
When you reset the indication or reconnect
the negative (–) terminal to the lead-acid

If you selected driving range the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display indicates
“
--- ” for a few seconds and then indicates
the current driving range when the ignition
switch is turned to “ON” position.
The driving range shown in the display is
the approximate distance you can drive
until the fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on
current driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on,
the display “---” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.As the driving range after refueling is cal-
culated based on the most recent driving
condition, the value is different each time
you refuel.
NOTE:
• If you refuel when the ignition switch is in
“ON” position, the driving range may not
indicate the correct value.
• When you reconnect the negative (–)
terminal to the lead-acid battery, the
value of driving range will be shown after
driving for a while. Oil indicator (if equipped)
If either of odometer reading or time is
reached to the value which is set by the oil
life monitoring system, the oil change
request light comes on when the ignition
switch is in “ON” position. The “OIL” indica-
tion is shown on the display (C) to tell you
it is necessary to change the engine oil
and oil filter.

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.

Malfunction indicator light
65D530
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A malfunction
indicator light is provided on the instrument
cluster to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
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. When the engine is started, the
light goes out.
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
or blinks when the engine is running, there
is a damage in the emission control sys-
tem.
Bring the vehicle to your SUZUKI dealer to
have the damage fixed.
(For EU specifi cation vehicle)
Also, if this light comes on when the
engine is running, there is a problem with
the continuously variable transaxle system
or Auto Gear Shift system. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.
Transaxle warning light (if equipped)
80J219
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 for several seconds so you can
check that the light is working.
If this light comes on when the engine is
running, there is a problem with the contin-
uously variable transaxle system or Auto
Gear Shift system. Ask your SUZUKI
dealer to have t he system inspected.
NOTE:
If the Auto Gear Shift clutch temperature
becomes too high, this light will blink. Stop
the vehicle in a safe place and let the sys-
tem cool down.
If the CVT fluid temperature becomes too
high, this light will blink. Stop the vehicle in
a safe place and let the fluid cool down.
NOTICE
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the malfunction indicator light is on
or blinking can cause permanent
damage to the vehicle’s emission
control system, and can affect fuel
economy and driveability.

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.
If this light stays on, there is a problem with
the system or the steering lock cannot be
released. If this happens, press the engine
switch, turning the steering wheel to the
right or left. If this light still stays on, ask
your SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.
Open door warning light
54G391

once to remind you to fill the fuel.
If you do not fill the fuel, a ding sounds
every time when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON” position or the engine
switch is pressed to change the ignition
mode to ON.
NOTE:
The activation point of this light varies
depending on road conditions (for exam-
ple, slope or curve) and driving conditions
because of fuel moving in the tank.

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.

The electronic control system monitors
driving condition (such as vehicle speed
and/or engine revolution), and it shows
which gear position is optimal for your driv-
ing with the indicati on on the display. Manual transaxle vehicle
If UP/DOWN arrow is indicated on the dis-
play while driving, we recommend you to
shift up or down the gear until the arrow
disappears. It is the optimal gear position
for a driving condition that reduces the
over revolution and stress to the engine,
and improves fuel consumption.
Auto Gear Shift vehicle (when using the
manual mode)
If UP arrow is indicated on the display while
driving, we recommend you to shift up the
gear until the arrow disappears. It is the opti-
mal gear position for a driving condition that
reduces the over revolut
ion and stress to the
engine, and improves fuel consumption.For details on how to use the transaxle,
refer to “Using transa xle” in this section.
