Malfunction Indicator Light
65D530
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A malfunction
indicator light is provided on the instrument
panel to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
The malfunction indicator light comes on
when you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON” to let you
know the light is working and goes out
when the engine is started.
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
or blinks when the engine is running, ser-
vice to the emission control system is nec-
essary. Bring the vehicle to an authorized
SUZUKI dealer to have the emission con-
trol system serviced right away and avoid
hard acceleration until the service is per-
formed.
Also, if the light comes on, there may be
something wrong with the continuously
variable transaxle system. Have the sys-
tem inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer.NOTE:
If the fuel filler cap is not installed fully, the
electrical system gets wet (such as by driv-
ing through a deep puddle of water) or the
fuel tank gets nearly empty, the malfunc-
tion indicator light may come on. If so, the
light will go off after driving a few times
after the fuel filler cap is installed fully, the
electrical system dries out or the fuel tank
is filled.
Low Fuel Warning Light
54G343
If this light comes on, fill the fuel tank
immediately.
When this light comes on, a ding sounds
once to remind you to fill the fuel.
If you do not fill the fuel, a ding sounds
every time you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”.
NOTE:
The activation point of this light varies
depending on road conditions (for exam-
ple, slope or curve) and driving conditions
because of fuel moving in the tank.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the malfunction indicator light is on
or blinking can cause permanent
damage to the vehicle’s emission
control system, and can affect fuel
economy and driveability.

equipped)
80J219
This light comes on when you press the
engine switch to change the ignition mode
to “ON” if there is any problem with the
continuously variable transaxle (CVT).
The light should normally come on when
the ignition mode is changed to “ON” by
pressing the engine switch and stay on
for about 2 seconds before going out.
NOTE:
The following conditions may indicate
some problem with the CVT system. If any
of these conditions occurs, have your vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer.
The light comes on while driving.
The light does not come on even when
the ignition mode is changed to “ON” by
pressing the engine switch. The light does not go out in about 2 sec-
onds after changing the ignition mode to
“ON” by pressing the engine switch.
Immobilizer/Keyless Start System
Warning Light
80JM122
When you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”, the light
comes on briefly so you can check that the
light is working. If this light stays on, there
is a problem with the system. This light
flashes if you press the engine switch while
the system is not sensing the remote con-
troller. For details, refer to “Immobilizer
System” in this section.i-AWD Warning Light (if equipped)

Average fuel consumption
If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove the vehicle, the dis-
play shows the last value of average fuel
consumption from previous driving when
the engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to “ON”. Unless you reset
the value of average fuel consumption, the
display indicates the value of average fuel
consumption which includes average fuel
consumption during previous driving.
NOTE:
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-
minal to the battery, the value of average
fuel consumption will be shown after driv-
ing for a period of time.
You can select when the value of average
fuel consumption is reset from among the
following three methods;
Reset after refuel: the value of averagefuel consumption will be reset automati-
cally by refueling.
Reset with trip A: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset automati-
cally by resetting trip meter A.
Reset manually: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset by pulling
and holding the DISP switch (2) when
the display indicates the average fuel
consumption. To change when the value of average fuel
consumption is reset, refer to “Setting
Mode” later in this section.
NOTE:
If you add only a small amount of fuel
when you select “Reset after refuel”, the
average fuel consumption value may not
be reset.
Driving range
If you selected driving range the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display indicates
“---” for a few seconds and then indicates
the current driving range when the engine
switch is pressed to change the ignition
mode to “ON”.
The driving range shown in the display is
the approximate distance you can drive
until the fuel gauge indicates “E”, based on
current driving conditions.
When the remaining fuel in fuel tank
reaches a low level, the display “---” will
appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is cal-
culated based on the most recent driving
condition, the value is different each time
you refuel. NOTE:
If you refuel when the ignition mode is
changed to “ON” by pressing the engine
switch, the driving range may not indi-
cate the correct value.
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter- minal to the battery, the value of driving
range will be shown after driving for a
period of time.
Average Speed
If you selected average speed the last time
you drove the vehicle, the display indicates
the last value of average speed from previ-
ous driving when the engine switch is
pressed to change the ignition mode to
“ON”. Unless you reset the value of aver-
age speed, the display indicates the value
of average speed which includes average
speed during previous driving.
To reset the value of average speed, pull
and hold the DISP switch (2) for about 2
seconds when the display indicates an
average speed. The display shows “---”
and then indicates a new average speed
after driving for a short time.
NOTE:
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-
minal to the battery, the value of average
speed will be shown after driving for a
period of time.

Auto-On Headlight System
57L21118
The Auto-on headlight system automati-
cally turns on all lights that are operated by
the lighting control lever on the steering
column, when the following three condi-
tions are all met.
Conditions for Auto-on headlight system
operation:
1) It is dark around the light sensor (5).
2) The lighting control lever is in the
“AUTO” position.
3) You press the engine switch to change
the ignition mode to “ON”.
This system is operated by a signal from
the light sensor (5) on the front wind shield.
Do not cover the sensor (5). If you do, the
system will not work correctly.NOTE:
The light sensor reacts even to infrared
rays, so it may operate incorrectly when
there are strong infrared rays.
Reprogramming the Automatic Light
Function
The following settings of the automatic light
function can be customized to your prefer-
ence. Please contact an authorized
SUZUKI dealer if you want the function
reprogrammed.

WARNING
It takes about 5 seconds for the light
sensor to react to a change in light-
ing conditions. To help avoid an acci-
dent due to reduced visibility, turn on
your headlights before driving into a
tunnel, parking structure or the like.
