power steering system may not work prop-
erly. Have the system inspected by your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
Following operations of the steering wheel
while parking or driving at a very low-
speed may have steering effort bigger
gradually. This is not a malfunction of the
steering system, but the power steering
control system limits the power assist in
order to prevent them from overheating.
• The steering wheel is operated very
often.
• The steering wheel is kept in a fully
turned position for a long while.
When the power steering control system
cool down, the power steering system
back to the original condition.
However, repeating these operations could
cause the power steering system damaged.
NOTE:
If the power steering system does not work
properly, you will feel heavier to steer but
you still will be able to steer.
NOTE:
If the steering is operated, you may hear a
rubbing noise. This is normal and indicates
that the power steering system works
properly.

(1) Rear center sensors (2 places)
(2) Rear corner sensors (2 places) Working sensors
The sensors that work depends on the
position of the gearshift lever as follows:
WARNING
The parking sensor warns you of
obstacles with buzzers However,
you must still pay full attention
yourself while driving. The sensors can detect obstacles only within a limited area and only
when the vehicle is moving within a
limited speed range. So, in tricky
areas, you must move the vehicle
slowly while checking around it
using your direct vision or rearview
mirrors. There is increased risk of an
accident if you control the vehicle
relying only on the parking sensor.
NOTICE
Parking sensors are only for driver's
assistance.

NOTICE
Avoid hitting the sensor areas or directing the nozzle of a high-pres-
sure car washer onto the sensor
areas. Otherwise, the sensors may
be damaged.
If the bumper hits a hard object, the
sensors on it may not work prop-
erly. If this occurs, have the sen-
sors inspected by an authorized
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

Warning and Indicator MessagesIf there is a problem or warning regarding
the parking sensor system, a buzzer and
the status of the indicator on the parking
sensor inform it. Follow its instruction.
The buzzer sounds intermittently. The
indicated sensor is contaminated. Wipe
it clean with a soft cloth. If the buzzer
does not stop after wiping, there may be
problem with the parking sensor system.
Have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.The indicator does not come on when the
parking sensor switch is pressed. The indica-
tor goes off while operating. There may be a
problem with the parking sensor system,
Have your vehicle inspected by an authorized
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.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 brake the vehicle when there
is plenty of distance between your vehicle
and the stopping point, and slow down
gradually.
Power-Assisted Brakes
(if equipped)Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes. If
power assistance is lost due to a stalled
engine or other failures, 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.Brake Assist System (if equipped)When you slam the brakes on, the brake
assist system judges as an emergency
stop and provides more powerful braking
for a driver who cannot hold down the
brake pedal firmly.
NOTE:
If you quickly and forcefully depress the
brakes, you may hear a clicking sound in
the brake pedal. This is normal and indi-
cates that the brake assist system is acti-
vated properly.
WA R N I N G
If water gets into the brake drums,
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.
WA R N I N G
Even without reserve power in the
brake system, you can still stop the
vehicle by pressing the brake pedal
harder than normally required. How-
ever, the stopping distance may be
longer.
