Hill descent control system
The hill descent control system is designed to reduce the driver's workload when going down steep, rough and/or slippery hills where the vehicle cannot decelerate enough by engine braking alone. The hill descent control system helps to control vehicle speed by automatically engaging the vehicle's brakes, as needed, so you can concentrate on steering the vehicle.
.A. WARNING
Do not rely excessively on the hill descent control system. The hill descent control system may not con­trol the vehicle speed on a hill under all load or road conditions. Always be prepa!ed to control vehicle speed by applying the brakes. Failure to pay attention and control vehicle speed using the brakes when necessary may result in loss of control or an accident.

Hill descent control switch
(1) Hill descent control switch
~;
~~~:~M
To activate the hill descent control system: 1) Shift the transfer lever into 4-wheel drive hiQh range position ("4H") or 4-wh!"el drive low '.ange position ("4L"). 2) Shift the gearsh1ft lever into a forward gear or reverse gear. 3) Push the hill descent control switch (1) when the vehicle speed is under 25 km/h (15 mph). The hill descent control indica­tor on the instrument cluster will come on and the hill descent control system will be activated.
4-wheel drive high range position When the vehicle speed exceeds about 1 o km/h (6 mph) without depressing the accelerator pedal, the hill descent control system applies the brakes automatically to maintain the vehicle speed at about 1 O km/ h (6 mph).
4-wheel drive low range position When the vehicle speed exceeds about 5 km/h (3 mph) without depressing the accelerator pedal, the hill descent control system applies the brakes automatically to maintain the vehicle speed at about 5 km/h (3 mph).
• When braking, the brake/tail lights come on and the ESP® warning light blinks. When the vehicle speed exceeds about 40 km/h (25 mph), the hill descent con­trol system stops functioning and the hill descent control indicator goes off. When the vehicle slows down below about 25 km/h (16 mph), the hill descent control system will be activated again and the hill descent control indicator will come on.

Engine trouble: Starter does
not operate
1) Try turning the ignition switch to "START" position with the headlights turned on to determine the lead-acid battery condition. If the headlights go excessively dim or go off, it usually means that either the lead-acid battery is discharged or the battery terminal contact is poor. Recharge the lead-acid battery or correct battery terminal con­tact as necessary. 2) If the headlights remain bright, check the fuses. If the reason for failure of the starter is not obvious, there may be a major electrical problem. Have the vehi­cle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
Engine trouble: Does not start
Make sure that your vehicle has enough · fuel and battery. If the engine does not start under very cold condition, press the accelerator pedal all the way to the fioor and hold it while crank­ing the engine. Refer to "Starting engine" in operating your vehicle section. If the engine still does not start have your vehicle inspected at a SUZUKI dealer. Do not operate the starter motor for more than 12 seconds.
EMERGENCY SERVICE
Engine trouble: Overheating
The engine could overheat temporarily under severe driving conditions. If the high engine coolant temperature warning light comes on as overheating or the engine coolant temperature gauge indicates over­heating during driving:
1) Turn off the air conditioner. 2) Take the vehicle to a safe place and park. 3) Run the engine at a normal idle speed for a few minutes until the high engine coolant temperature warning light goes off or the indicator is within the normal, acceptable temperature range between "H" and "C".
A WARNING
If you see or hear escaping steam, stop the vehicle in a safe place and immediately turn off the engine to cool it. Do not open the hood when steam is present. When the steam can no longer be seen or heard, open the hood to see if the coolant is still boiling. If it is, you must wait until it stops boiling before you proceed.
