If the message shown in the above illustra­tion appears on the information display, master warning indicator light blinks and the interior buzzer beeps, there may be a problem with the hill descent control sys­tem and the hill hold control system. Have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE: You cannot activate the hill descent control system while this message is displayed.
Hill hold control system
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 sys­tem helps prevent the vehicle from rolling downward (for approximately 2 seconds) while you move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
A WARNING
• 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 condi­tions. 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)

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
A WARNING
The load-carrying capacity of your tyres is reduced at lower inflation pressures. If your tyres are even moderately under-inflated, the load on the tyres may exceed the load-car­rying capacity of the tyres, which could lead to tyre failure. The low tyre pressure warning light will not alert you to this condition, because it only comes on when one or more of your tyres becomes significantly under­inflated.
Check and adjust your tyre pressure at least once a month. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAIN­TENANCE" section.
3-65
A WARNING
Continuing to drive with the low tyre pressure warning light on can lead to an accident, resulting in severe injury or death. If the low tyre pressure warning light comes on and stays on, reduce your speed and avoid abrupt steering and braking. Be aware that driving on a significantly under-inflated tyre can cause the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure, and may affect steering control and brake effective­ness. Stop in a safe place as soon as possible and check your tyres. If you have a flat tyre, replace it with the spare tyre (if equipped). Refer to "Jacking instructions" in "EMERGENCY SERVICE" section for the tyre replacement method. Also refer to "Replacing tyres and/ or wheels" for instructions on how to restore normal operation of the TPMS after you have had a flat tyre. • If one or more of your tyres is under-inflated, adjust the inflation pressure in all of your tyres to the recommended inflation pressure as soon as possible.
The low tyre pressure warning light can come on due to normal causes such as natural air leakage and pressure changes caused by changes in temperature or atmospheric pressure. Adjusting the air pressure in the tyres to the pressure shown on the tyre information placard should cause the low tyre pressure warn­ing light to turn off.
To make the low tyre pressure warning light go off, adjust the tyre pressures when the tyres are cold, and drive the vehicle for about 10 minutes. When the adjusted tyre pressure is recog­nized, the low tyre pressure warning light will go off and the information display shows the current tyre pressure (if you select the TPMS monitor (if equipped)).

NOTICE
If the low tyre pressure warning light does not go off even when you drive for more than 10 minutes after adjust­ing the cold tyre pressure, there may be a problem with the TPMS. Have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
If the light turns on again shortly after adjusting the pressure in your tyres. you may have a flat tyre. If you have a flat tyre, replace it with the spare tyre (if equipped). Refer to "Jacking instructions" in "EMER­GENCY SERVICE"" section. Refer to "Replacing tyres and/or wheels" for instruc­tions on how to restore normal operation of the tyre pressure monitoring system after you have had a flat tyre.
61MM0A198
NOTE: For a certain type of instrument cluster only, the information display shows the above warning and indicator message when this light comes on. When the tyre pressure is adjusted in high altitude areas, the low tyre pressure light may not turn off even after tyre pressure adjustment. In this case, adjust the inflation pressure to a slightly higher pressure than the one shown on the tyre informaUon placard. The low tyre pressure warning light may turn off temporarily after coming on. This could be due to increase of surface tem­perature after long distance driving or traveling to a high temperature area. Even if the tyre pressure warning light turns off after coming on, check the infla­tion pressure of all tyres.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
To reduce the chance that the low tyre pressure warning light will come on due to normal changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure, it is important to check and adjust the tyre pressures when the tyres are cold. If you check tyres after driving, they are warm. Even if the tyre pressure seems to be good in this condition, it could fall below the specified pressure when tyres cool down. Also, if tyres are inflated to the specified pressure in a warm garage, the tyre pressure could fall below the speci­fied one when you drive the vehicle out­side in very cold temperature. If you adjust the tyre pressure in a garage that is warmer than the outside temperature, you should add 1 kPa to the recom­mended cold tyre pressure for every O.B'C difference between garage tem­perature and outside temperature.

Improving fuel economy
The following instructions will help you improve fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idling If you park your vehicle for more than one minute, stop the engine and start it again later. When warming up a cold engine, do not allow the engine to idle or apply full throttle until the engine has reached oper­ating temperature. Allow the engine to warm up by driving.
Avoid fast starts F~st starts away from lights or stop signs will consume fuel unnecessarily and shorten engine life. Start off slowly.
Avoid unnecessary stops Avoid unnecessary deceleration and stop­ping. Try to maintain a moderate, steady speed whenever possible. Slowing down and then accelerating again uses more fuel.
Keep a steady cruising speed Drive at a constant speed that road and traffic conditions will permit.
Keep the air cleaner clean
EXAMPLE
60A183
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there will be greater intake resistance, resulting m decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.
Keep weight to a minimum The heavier the load is, the more fuel the vehicle consumes. Unload any unneces­sary luggage or cargo.
Keep tyre pressures correct Under-infiation of the tyres can waste fuel due to increased rolling resistance of the tyres. Keep your tyres infiated to the cor­rect pressure shown in the label on driver's door lock pillar.
DRIVING TIPS
Highway driving
When driving at highway speeds, pay attention to the following: • Stopping distance progressively increases with vehicle speed. Apply the brakes far enough ahead of the stopping prnnt to allow for the extra stopping dis­tance. On rainy days, hydroplaning can occur. Hydroplaning is the loss of direct contact between the road surface and the vehi­cle's tyres due to a water film forming between them. Steering or braking the vehicle during hydroplaning can be very difficult, and loss of control can occur. Keep speed down when the road sur­face is wet. At high speeds, the vehicle may be affected by side winds. Therefore, reduce speed and be prepared for unex­pected buffeting, which can occur at the exits of tunnels, when passing by a cut of a hill, or when being overtaken by large vehicles, etc.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Air conditioning switch (5) To turn on the air conditioning system, set the blower speed selector to a position other than off and push in "NC" switch. With this "NC" switch operation, a indica­tor light will come on when the air condi­tioning system is working. To turn off the air conditioning system, push "NC" switch again.
During operation of the air conditioner, you may notice slight changes in engine speed. These changes are normal, the system is designed so that the compressor turns on or off to maintain the desired tem­perature.
Less operation of the compressor results in better fuel economy.
System operating instructions
Natural ventilation Select VENTILATION and FRESH AIR, the temperature selector to the desired tem­perature position, and the blower speed selector to off. Fresh air will flow through the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation The base settings are the same as for nat­ural ventilation except you set the blower speed selector to a position other than off.
Normal heating (using outside air) Select HEAT and FRESH AIR, the tem­perature selector to the desired tempera­ture position and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed position. Set­ting the blower speed selector to a higher blower speed position increases heating
efficiency.
Quick heating (using recirculated air) The base settings are the same as for nor­mal heating except you select RECIRCU­LATED AIR. If you use this heating method for an extended period of time, the air in the vehicle can become contaminated and the windows can become misty. Therefore, use this method only for quick heating and change to the normal heating method as soon as possible.
5-20

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Head cooled/Feet warmed heating Select BI-LEVEL and FRESH AIR, the temperature selector to the desired tem­perature position, and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed posi­tion. Unless the temperature selector is in the fully cold position or fully hot position, the air that comes out of the center and side outlets will be cooler than the air that comes out of the floor outlets.
Normal cooling Set the air flow selector to VENTILATION, the temperature selector to the desired tem­perature position and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed posi­tion, and turn on "NG" switch. Setting the blower speed selector to a higher blower speed position increases cooling efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to either FRESH AIR or RECIRCULATED AIR as you desire. Choosing RECIRCU­LATED AIR increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air) The base settings are the same as for nor­mal cooling except you select RECIRCU­LATED AIR and the highest blower speed.
NOTE: If you select RECIRCULATED AIR for an extended period of time, the air in the vehicle can become contaminated and the windows tend to get misted. There­fore, you should select FRESH AIR whenever possible.
5-21
If your vehicle has been left in the sun with the windows closed, it will cool faster if you open the windows briefly while you operate the air conditioner with the air intake selector at FRESH AIR and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying Set the air flow selector to a desired air flow selector position, the temperature selector to the desired temperature posi­tion and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed position. Also select FRESH AIR and turn on "NG" switch.
NOTE: Because the air conditioner dehumidifies the air, turning it on will help keep the win­dows clear, even when blowing heated air using DEFROST or HEAT & DEFROST functions.
NOTE: If you need maximum defrosting: select DEFROST and FRESH AIR, set the blower speed selector to high, adjust the temperature selector to the hot end, turn on 'WC" switch, and adjust the side outlets so the air blows on the side windows.
