WA R N I N G
• While driving the vehicle, do notshift the gearshift lever to the “N”
position. The engine brake may not
work and you may get involved in
an unexpected accident. If you
return the gearshift lever from “N”
to “D” because of unintended shift-
ing, the gear position will be shifted
according to the current vehicle
speed.
• Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the
engine running. This operation pre-
vents the vehicle from moving due
to unintended activation of the
creeping function.
NOTICE
If the gearshift lever cannot shift into
any position, or the gear is changed
to “N” position au tomatically when
the vehicle speed becomes less than
10 km/h (6 mph), there may be a sys-
tematic malfunction. In this case, ask
your SUZUKI dealer to inspect the
Auto Gear Shift system as soon as
possible.
NOTICE
Do not operate the system as
described below. The life cycle of the
clutch may be reduced.
• Using the accelerator pedal to hold the vehicle on an uphill slope with
the gearshift lever in the “D” or “M”
position. If you perform this opera-
tion for a certain period of time, a
warning buzzer will sound.
• Shifting the gearshift lever to the “D”, “M” or “R” position while rac-
ing the engine.
• Driving at low speed using a high
gear.
• Holding the vehicle on an uphill slope using the creeping function.
If you perform this operation for a
certain period of time, a warning
buzzer will sound.
NOTICE
On an uphill slope, never hold the
vehicle at a stop using only the accel-
erator pedal or the creeping function.

make sure that the gear is in 1st.
2) Release the brake pedal and depress the accelerator pedal slowly. Even
though the accelerator pedal is not
depressed, the clutch will be engaged
when the vehicle speed increases. Backing up
After the vehicle has stopped completely,
depress the brake pedal and shift the gear-
shift lever to the “R” position. Depress the
accelerator pedal slowly as when starting
off in 1st gear. Before backing up, make
sure that reverse gear is selected by
checking the gear position indicator.
NOTE:
• If reverse gear cannot be engaged even
though the gearshift lever has been
shifted from the “N” to the “R” position,
the system will re-try shifting automati-
cally. This will take some time, noise
may be heard from the gears, and shift-
ing gear shock may occur. However,
they do not indicate malfunction.
• The “N” indicator will flush, the depress brake pedal indicator will come on and a
warning buzzer (long pulse sound) will
sound if any of the following cases
occur;
– If you shift the gearshift lever from the “N” to the “R” position without depress-
ing the brake pedal
– If the system is unable to re-try shifting
You should depress the brake pedal and
shift the gearshift lever to “N” position,
then shift to “R” position again a few sec-
onds later.
WA R N I N G
Always keep your foot on the brake
pedal while stopped with the engine
running. These operations prevent
the vehicle from starting due to unin-
tended activation of the creeping
function.
NOTICE
Do not operate the system as
described below. The life cycle of the
clutch may be reduced.

• The system will not allow shifting to the“R” position if the vehicle speed is over
about 3 km/h (2 mph). If the gearshift
lever is operated under this condition,
the “N” indicator in the instrument cluster
will blink. However, when the vehicle
speed drops below about 3 km/h (2
mph), the gear will be shifted to reverse.
Make sure that the vehicle has stopped
completely before shifting to the “R”
position. Stopping
The vehicle can be stopped by depressing
the brake pedal regardless of the gear
position. This is because the clutch is auto-
matically disengaged to prevent the engine
from stopping.
• If the gearshift lever is in the “D” position,
the gear will be downshifted to 1st when
the vehicle stops.
• If the gearshift lever is in the “M” posi- tion, the gear will be downshifted to 1st
when the vehicle stops.
NOTICE
On a downhill slope, never hold the
vehicle at a stop using only the accel-
erator pedal or the creeping function.
If you perform this operation for a
certain period of time, a warning
buzzer will sound, and in some cases
the engine will stall. This can also
cause excessive damage to the
clutch.
WA R N I N G
• When stopping, for example, at a
traffic light, be sure to depress the
brake pedal firmly. For your safety,
apply the parking brake, too, when
stopping on a hill.
• When racing the engine, make sure that the gear is in the “N” position
by checking the gear position indi-
cator. If the accelerator is operated
with the gear in any other position,
the vehicle may move resulting in
an unexpected accident.
• Do not leave your vehicle unat-
tended while the engine is running. (Continued)

• When leaving the vehicle, stop the
engine and park the vehicle with a
gear engaged. If you need to leave
the vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brakes firmly,
and shift the gearshift lever to the
“N” position. Otherwise, the vehi-
cle may move unexpectedly and
may cause an accident.
NOTICE
• On a slope, never hold the vehicleat a stop using only the accelerator
pedal or the creeping function. If
you perform this operation for a
certain period of time, a warning
buzzer will sound, and in some
cases the engine will stall. This can
also cause excessive damage to
the clutch.
• If the gearshift lever is operated
more than necessary, the system
may not allow operation of the
gearshift lever for a certain period
of time, and the gear may not be
shifted appropriately. Therefore, do
not operate the gearshift lever if not
necessary.

ENG A-STOP system
(engine auto stop start system) (if equipped)The ENG A-STOP system (engine auto
stop start system) automatically stops and
restarts the engine when decelerating
before stopping and when the vehicle is
stopped, such as at a traffic signal, in order
to reduce exhaust gases, fuel consumption
and engine noise.
• This system automatically stops the engine under certain conditions. When
the vehicle will be stopped for a long
time or when you will leave the vehicle
unattended, set the parking brake firmly,
and then turn the ignition switch or press
the engine switch to stop the engine.
• If certain conditions are met, the engine is stopped automatically when decelerat-
ing (approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or
less for manual transaxle vehicles,
approximately 13 km/h (8 mph) or less
for CVT vehicles) before stopping. How-
ever, the engine will not be stopped
automatically during deceleration until
confirmation of the system function is fin-
ished. NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the auto-
matic heating and ai
r conditioning system,
you can change the automatic engine stop
condition via the information display. Refer
to “Setting mode” in “Information display
(instrument cluster with tachometer)” in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section.
75RM054
CAUTION
• Do not get out of the vehicle when the engine has been stopped auto-
matically by the ENG A-STOP sys-
tem. This may result in an accident.
– For manual transaxle, if the
driver’s seat belt is unfastened or
the driver’s door is opened, the
engine will be restarted to warn
you that the engine was stopped
automatically by the ENG A-
STOP system.
– For CVT, if the driver’s seat belt is unfastened, even if the brake
pedal is pressed down, or the
driver’s door is opened, the
engine will be restarted to warn
you that the engine was stopped
automatically by the ENG A-
STOP system.
• If the engine is not restarted auto- matically after being stopped by the
ENG A-STOP system, turn the igni-
tion switch or press the engine
switch to start the engine. Operating
the vehicle without restarting the
engine will require more effort for
steering and braking operations and
may result in an accident.

cautions of when the engine is
stopped automatically”.
NOTE:
• Engine auto stop function during decel- eration will be ready once the vehicle
runs at a speed exceeding 10 km/h
(6 mph) after restart of the engine.
• Even if the engine di d not stop automati-
cally before the vehicle came to a stop
(still traveling at approximately 15 km/h
(9 mph) or below), the engine may stop
automatically once the vehicle stops.
• If the engine stalled by a rapid clutch operation, the engine may restart when
the gearshift lever is in “N” (Neutral)
position, the clutch lever is depressed,
and other standby conditions are met.
NOTICE
Since models equipped with this sys-
tem use a lead-acid battery specifi-
cally for the high-efficiency ENG A-
STOP system, observe the following
precautions. Failure to observe these
precautions may result in a malfunc-
tion of the system or a shortened bat-
tery life.
• When replacing the battery, onlyuse the specified type. (Do not use
any other type of battery.)
• Do not power electrical accesso- ries from the battery terminals.
