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.

If  the  rear  view  from  the  rearview  cam-
era is not shown or there is a poor
image
• If the rear view from the rearview camerais not shown.
– Check  that  the  ignition  switch  is  in
“ON”  position  or  the  ignition  mode  is
ON.
– Check  that  the  gearshift  lever  is
shifted to “R” position.
• If the image from the rearview camera is poor.
– Check that the camera lens is not dirty.
– Check  that  light  from  the  sun  or  thebeam  of  the  headlights  from  the  vehi-
cle  behind  is  not  shining  directly  into
the lens.
If  the  rearview  camera  system  is  still  not
working properly after checking the above,
have  the  system  inspected  by  an  autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
Braking
60G165S
The  distance  needed  to  bring  any  vehicle
to  a  halt  increases  with  the  speed  of  the
vehicle.  The  braking  distance  needed,  for
example,  at  60  km/h  (37  mph)  will  be
approximately  4  times  greater  than  the
braking  distance  needed  at  30  km/h  (19
mph).  Start  to  depress  the  brake  pedal
when  there  is  plenty  of  distance  between
your  vehicle  and  the  stopping  point,  and
slow down gradually.
Power-assisted brakesYour  vehicle has power-assisted brakes.  If
power  assistance  is  lo st  due  to  a  stalled
engine  or  other  failure s,  the  system  is  still
fully operational on reserve power and you
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop by
pressing the brake pedal once and holding
it  down.  The  reserve  power  is  partly  used
up when you depress the brake pedal and
reduces  each  time  the  pedal  is  pressed.
Apply  smooth  and  even  pressure  to  the
pedal. Do not pump the pedal.
WA R N I N G
If  water  gets  into  the  brake  devices,
brake performance may become poor
and  unpredictable.  After  driving
through  water  or  washing  the  under-
side  of  the  vehicle,  test  the  brakes
while driving at a slow speed to see if
they  have  maintained  their  normal
effectiveness.  If  the  brakes  are  less
effective  than  normal,  dry  them  by
repeatedly  applying  the  brakes  while
driving  slowly  until  the  brakes  have
regained their normal effectiveness.

NOTE:
• If the ESP
® system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-
ing in the brake pedal. This is normal
and indicates that the brake fluid pres-
sure is being controlled properly.
• You may hear an operation sound when you start the engine or after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the
above systems are in  the self-check
mode. This sound does not indicate a
malfunction. The  ESP
®  indicator  lights  are  described
below:

This  light  blinks  5  times  per  second  when
one of the following sy stems is activated.
• Stability control system
• Traction control system
• Hill descent control system (if equipped)
• Grip control system (if equipped)
If this light blinks, drive carefully.
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. NOTE:
When the ESP
® warning light comes on
and stays on while driving, indicating a
malfunction of the ESP
® systems (other
than ABS), the brake system will function
as an ordinary ABS with no additional
ESP
® functions.
ESP
® OFF indicator light
57L30045
You  should  turn  the  ESP
®  on  during  your
ordinary driving, so that you have the ben-
efits of all of the ESP
® systems.
It  may  be  required  to  turn  the  ESP
®  sys-
tems (other than ABS) off if your vehicle is
stuck  in  sand,  mud,  or  snow,  where  wheel
spin is necessary.

• The  ESP
®  may  not  work  properly  if
the  tires  are  excessively  worn.
Replace  tires  when  the  tread  wear
indicators in the grooves appear on
the tread surface.
• The  ESP® is not a substitute for
winter  tires  or  tire  chains  on  a
snow-covered road.
WA R N I N G
• The  ESP
®  may  not  work  properly  if
engine  related  parts  such  as  the
muffler are not equivalent to stan-
dard  equipment  or  are  extremely
deteriorated.
• Do  not  modify  the  vehicle’s  sus- pension  since  the  ESP
®  may  not
work properly.
NOTICE
If the ESP

Grip control system (if equipped)When  one  side  of  the  tires  is  slipping  on
slippery road surfaces such as a snow-cov-
ered road and it is difficult to start the vehi-
cle,  the  grip  control  system  controls  the
driving  force  and  brake  force  through  the
ESP
® system, and assists you in smooth
starting.
In such cases as when both of the tires are
slipping,  the  system  may  also  assist  start-
ing.
NOTE:
• When both of the tires are slipping, thegrip control system may work, however,
it works especially effective when one
side of the tires is slipping.
• You may hear an operation sound when you start the engine or after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the grip
control system is in the self-check mode.
This sound does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
• When the grip control system is working with high engine revolutions, you may
feel changing the engine speed or vehi-
cle pulsating. This is normal. Grip control switch

(1) Grip control switch
To  activate  the  grip  control  system,  push
the grip control switch. An indicator light on
the  switch  will  be  lit  when  the  grip  control
system  is  on.  When  you  push  the  switch
again, the indicator light will go off and the
grip control system  will be deactivated.
• When  the  vehicle  is  stabilized  and  the vehicle  speed  exceeds  about  30  km/h
(19  mph),  the  grip  control  system  stops
functioning  and  the  indicator  on  the
switch goes off.
• When  the  ESP
® system is off, the grip
control system cannot be turned on.
WA R N I N G
Grip  control  system  has  limits  and
may not function properly depending
on the driving conditions. Do not rely
excessively  on  the  system  and
always drive in a safe manner.
CAUTION
• Observe  the  following  instruc- tions.  If  mishandled,  the  grip  con-
trol  system  cannot  work  properly
and may cause a malfunction.
– Inflate  the  tires  to  the  recom-mended tire inflation pressure.
– When  replacing  tires  or  wheels, use  only  the  size  and  type  speci-
fied in this owner’s manual.
– Do  not  use  worn  or  extremely uneven tires. (Continued)
CAUTION
(Continued)– Do  not  modify  the  vehicle’s  sus-
pension  or  brake  (Altering  the
vehicle heig ht, etc.).
– Do not drive with extremely dete-
riorated suspension or brake.
– Do  not  modify  the  engine  (Alter- ing the muffler, etc.).
– Do  not  equip  a  limited  slip  differ- ential.
• The  grip  control  system  may  not
work properly if tires are fitted with

How grip control system works
When the grip control switch is on and one
side of the tires is slipping, the grip control
system  assists  you  in  smooth  starting  by
controlling  the  driving  force  and  brake
force of all wheels.
• When  the  ESP
® system is off, the grip
control system cannot be activated.
NOTE:
While the grip control system is working,
the ESP
® warning light blinks.
Hill hold control sys tem (if equipped)The  hill  hold  control  system  is  designed  to
assist  you  in  starting  to  move  up  hills.
When  you  start  to  move  up  a  hill,  the  sys-
tem  helps  to  prevent  the  vehicle  from  roll-
ing  downward  (for  approximately  2
seconds)  while  you  move  your  foot  from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill hold control system activates for a
maximum of about 2 seconds if your foot is
moved  from  the  brake  pedal  when  the  fol-
lowing conditions are all met.
1) The  gearshift  lever  is  in  a  forward  gear or reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.
3) For  manual  transaxle  models,  the clutch pedal is depressed.
4) The vehicle is o n an upward incline.
CAUTION
To  activate  the  grip  control  system,
push  the  grip  control  switch  and
check that the indicator on the switch
turns on.
WA R N I N G
• Do  not  rely  excessively  on  the  hill
hold  control  system.  The  hill  hold
control system may not prevent the
vehicle from rolling downward on a
hill  under  all  load  or  road  condi-
tions.  Always  be  prepared  to
depress  the  brake  pedal  to  prevent
the  vehicle  from  rolling  downward.
Failure  to  pay  attention  and
depress the brake pedal to hold the
vehicle  on  a  hill  when  necessary,
may  result  in  loss  of  control  or  an
accident.
• The  hill  hold  control  system  is  not designed to stop the vehicle on a
hill. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• After you release your foot from the
brake  pedal,  accelerate  the  vehicle
to  move  up  immediately.  If  you
release  your  foot  from  the  brake
pedal  over  2  seconds,  the  hill  hold
control  system  will  be  canceled.  If
so,  the  vehicle  may  roll  downward,
which  can  result  in  an  accident
depending  on  the  degree  of  slope.
And,  the  engine  may  stall  and  the
power  assist  for  the  steering  and
brakes  will  not  work  so  steering
and  braking  will  be  much  harder
than  usual  which  can  result  in  an
accident or vehicle damage.

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 
Page 239 of 505

3-86
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
affect  the  vehicle’s  handling  and  stopping
ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substi-
tute  for  proper  tire  maintenance,  and  it  is
the  driver’s  responsibility  to  maintain  cor-
rect  tire  pressure,  even  if  under-inflation
has  not  reached  the  level  to  trigger  illumi-
nation  of  the  TPMS  low  tire  pressure  tell-
tale.
WA R N I N G
Relying  only  on  the  tire  pressure
monitoring  system  to  determine
when it is necessary to add air to the
tires  can  result  in  loss  of  control  or
an accident. 
Check  tire  inflation  pressures
monthly when the tires are cold. If
necessary, adjust them to the recom-
mended  inflation  pressure  as  speci-
fied  on  the  vehicle’s  tire  information
placard  and  in  this  owner’s  manual.
Refer  to  “Tires”  in  the  “INSPECTION
AND MAINTENANCE” section.
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.
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 significantly under-inflated.
Check  and  adjust  your  tire  inflation
pressure at least once a month. Refer
to  “Tires”  in  the  “INSPECTION  AND
MAINTENANCE” section.

corresponding tire pressure indication
blinks to alert you which tire(s) is(are)
low pressure.
• The display may not show the tire infla- tion pressure for about 10 minutes after
the vehicle begins to move. This is
because the TPMS system learns the
tire inflation pressure within this 10 min-
utes. The display will show the tire infla-
tion pressure after 10 minutes passed.
• If you stop the vehicle and turn the igni-
tion switch to “LOCK” position or change
the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF), and
leave it for 20 minutes or more, tire pres-
sure will be reset and will be indicated as
0 kPa when the engine is restarted. In
this case, the current  tire pressure indi-
cation will recover after driving for a
