Low tyre pressure warning light {if equipped)
{l)
52D305
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your vehicle is equipped with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that uses a low tyre pressure warning light to inform you
2-39
when one or more of your tyres is signifi­cantly under-inflated.
When the ignition switch is turned "ON", this light comes on briefly so you can check that the light is working.
When the low tyre pressure warning light is lit, one or more of your tyres is significantly under-inflated. You should stop and check your tyres as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure as indicated on the vehicle's tyre information placard. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tyre causes the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Each tyre, including the spare, should be checked at least once a month when cold and set to the recom­mended inflation pressure as specified in the vehicle placard.
The low tyre 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 "ON" as long as the malfunction exists.
NOTE: The low tyre pressure warning light may not come on immediately if you have a sudden loss of air pressure.
A WARNING
Failure to take corrective action when the low tyre pressure warning light is not working or when it comes on and blinks while driving can lead to an accident. If the low tyre pressure warning light does not come on for 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned "ON", the light or comes on and blinks while driving, have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer. Even if the light turns off after blinking, indi­cating that the monitoring system has recovered, you should still have the system checked by a SUZUKI dealer.

A WARNING
Always set the parking brake fully before leaving your vehicle or it may move, causing injury or damage. When parking, make sure the gear­shift lever for manual transmission vehicles is in 1st gear or "R" (Reverse) and the gearshift lever for automatic transmission vehicles is in "P" (Park). Remember, even though the transmission is in gear or in Park, you must set the parking brake fully.
A WARNING
When parking the vehicle in extremely cold weather, the following procedure should be used: 1) Set the parking brake. 2) Manual transmission -turn off the engine, then shift into reverse or first gear. Automatic transmission -shift into "P" (Park) and turn off the engine. 3) Get out of the vehicle and put chocks under the wheels. 4) Release the parking brake. When you return to your vehicle, first set the parking brake, and then remove the wheel chocks.
A WARNING
Do not leave cigarette lighters, spray cans, soft drink cans or plastic arti~ cles (such as glasses, CD case, etc.) in sun-heated vehicle. The tempera­ture inside the vehicle may cause as follows: Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can and may lead to a fire. The glasses, plastic cards or CD cases, etc. may deform or crack. Soft drink cans may fracture.
Parking brake reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind you to release the parking brake if you start the vehicle without fully releasing the parking brake. Check that the parking brake is fully released and the brake sys­tem warning light turns off.

Low tyre pressure warning light
(!)
52D305
Each tyre should be checked monthly when cold and infiated to the infiation pres­sure recommended by the vehicle manu­facturer on the vehicle placard or tyre pressure label. (If your vehicle has tyres of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tyre pressure label, you should determine the proper tyre pres­sure for those tyres.) As an added fuel efficiency feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tyre pressure telltale when one or more of your tyres is signifi­cantly under-infiated. Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tyres as soon as possible, and infiate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-infiated tyre causes the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure. Under-infiation also reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substi­tute for proper tyre maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain cor­rect tyre pressure, even if under-infiation has not reached the level to trigger illumi­nation of the TPMS low tyre pressure tell­tale.
A WARNING
Relying only on the tyre pressure monitoring system to determine when it is necessary to add air to the tyres can result in loss of control or an accident. Check tyre pressures monthly when the tyres are cold. If necessary, adjust them to the recommended inflation pressure as specified on the vehicle's tyre information placard and in this owner's manual. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAIN­TENANCE" section.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
A WARNING
Failure to take corrective action when the low tyre pressure warning light is not working or when it comes on and blinks while driving can lead to an accident. If the low tyre pressure warning light does not come on for 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to "ON" position, or comes on and blinks while driving, have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer. Even if the light turns off after blinking, indi­cating that the monitoring system has recovered, you should still have the system checked by a SUZUKI dealer.

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.
