steadily increase. When you release the
switch, the new speed will be maintained.
To reset at a slower cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold push down the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3) until the vehicle has
slowed to the desired speed, then release
the switch. The new speed will be main-
tained.
NOTE:
You can adjust the set speed by approxi-
mately 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h) by pushing a
cruise control switch quickly.
Cancellation of the Cruise Control
The “SET” indicator light will go off and the
cruise control will be canceled temporarily
with following procedures:
 Push the “CANCEL” switch (2).
 Depress the brake pedal.
 For manual transaxle, depress the clutch
pedal.
 For CVT, downshift from 3rd to 2nd in the
manual mode.
 The vehicle speed falls more than about
20 percent from the set speed.
 Any time the vehicle speed falls below
25 mph (40 km/h).
 When the vehicle skids and ESP
® (if
equipped) is activated.
To resume the previously set speed, push
up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3) and turn
on the “SET” indicator light. Besides, the
vehicle speed has to be above 25 mph (40km/h) when the vehicle is not in the above
conditions.
To turn off the cruise control system, push
the “CRUISE” switch (1) and make sure
the “CRUISE” indicator light is off.
Also, if the malfunction indicator light in the
instrument cluster comes on or blinks, the
cruise control system will be turned off.
NOTE:
If you turn off the cruise control system, the
previously set speed in the memory is
cleared. Reset your cruising speed again.
Parking Sensors
(if equipped)
57L40019
(1) Symbol representing an obstacle
detected by parking sensor*
* This symbol represents an obstacle that
is located to the right rear at the vehicle.
 The parking sensor system uses ultra-
sonic sensors to detect obstacles near
the rear bumper. If obstacles are sensed
while you are parking or moving the
vehicle slowly, the system warns you by
sounding a buzzer and displaying sym-
bols representing the obstacles on the
information display in the instrument
cluster.
 The system emits an ultrasonic wave
and the relevant sensor detects the
return of the wave reflected by an obsta-
cle. The system measures the time

taken by the ultrasonic wave to reach the
obstacle and return from it, from which it
determines the obstacle’s position.
 The parking sensor function can be used
when you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”, the
gearshift lever is in the “R” position and
the parking sensor switch is in the ON
position. This function is helpful when
parallel-parking the vehicle, steering the
vehicle into the garage or moving slowly
in a place with obstacles.
Sensor LocationsOn rear bumper
57L31018
(1) Rear center sensors (2 places)
(2) Rear corner sensors (2 places)
NOTE:
 If the bumper hits a hard object, the sen-
sors on it may not work properly. If this
occurs, have the sensors inspected by
an authorized SUZUKI dealer.Approximate Areas Where Obstacles
Can Be Detected
57L31019
 An obstacle within about 20 cm (8 in)
from a sensor or just below a sensor is
not detectable.
 The sensors can detect an obstacle up
to about 1.5 m (5 ft) from the rear of
vehicle.
WARNING
 The parking sensor warns you of
obstacles with buzzers and by
showing you the location of the
obstacles on the information dis-
play. 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 vehi-
cle relying only on the parking sen-
sor.
CAUTION
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.

NOTE:
 Thin poles or obstacles lower than the
sensors may become undetectable as
the vehicle moves closer to them even if
they have been detected from longer dis-
tances. The system may calculate the distance
to a road sign or similar obstacle to be
shorter than the actual distance.
Certification (Canada only)
This ISM device complies with Canadian
ICES*-001
* Interference-Causing Equipment Stan-
dards
CAUTION
 Under the following conditions, the
parking sensor system may not
work normally because the sensors
cannot detect obstacles correctly.
– Sensors are covered with mud,
ice or other materials. (Such
materials must be removed for
normal operation.)
– Sensors are wet from water
splashes or heavy rain.
– Sensors are covered by a hand,
sticker, accessory, etc.
– There is an accessory or other
object attached within the sen-
sor’s sensing area.
– Items such as tow hooks, a back-
lit license plate, commercially
available corner poles, radio
antenna, etc. are installed on the
bumper.
– The height of the bumper is
changed due to alteration to the
suspension or other causes.
– The sensor areas are extremely
hot from direct sunlight or cold
due to freezing weather.
– The vehicle is on a rough sur-
face, slope, gravel road or grass
field.
– The vehicle is at a steep angle.
(Continued)
CAUTION
(Continued)
– Sensors have intercepted ultra-
sonic noise from another vehi-
cle’s horn, engine, air braking
system (large vehicles), or park-
ing sensor.
– Obstacles are too close to the
sensors.
– Sensors are at an angle to a
highly reflective object such as
glass. (Ultrasonic waves are not
reflected back from the obstacle.)
 Sensors may not be able to cor-
rectly detect the following types of
obstacles:
– Objects made of a thin material
like wire netting and ropes
– Square-shaped curbstones or
other objects with sharp edges
– Tall objects with a large upper
part like a road sign
– Low-profile objects such as curb-
stones
– Sound-absorbing objects such
as cotton and snow

by corner sensors Warnings when obstacles are detected
by center sensors
NOTE:
 Symbols are displayed with a short delay
after the detection of obstacles.
 If the system detects multiple obstacles
simultaneously, the display shows all of
their positions using the corresponding
symbols. However, the buzzers will
sound only for the nearest obstacles.
Warning and Indicator MessagesIf there is a problem or warning regarding
the parking sensor system, a message is
displayed on the information display in the
instrument cluster, and a symbol flashes
and the buzzer sounds. If a message is
displayed, follow its instruction. Distance

Hill Hold Control System
(if equipped)The hill hold control system is designed to
assist you in starting to move up steep or
slippery hills. When you start to move up a
hill, the system helps to prevent the vehicle
from rolling downward while you move your
foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator
pedal.
The hill hold control system activates for a
maximum of about 2 seconds if your foot is
moved from the brake pedal when the fol-
lowing condition are all met.
1) The gearshift lever is in a forward gear
or reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.3) The vehicle is on an upward incline.
NOTE:
You may hear a sound coming from the
engine when the hill hold control system is
activated. This sound is normal and does
not indicate a malfunction.
57L31023
If the message shown in the above illustra-
tion appears on the information display,
there may be a problem with the hill hold
control system. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTE:
The hill hold control system will not acti-
vate while this message is displayed.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) (if equipped)The tire pressure monitoring system is
designed to alert you when one or more of
the tires on your vehicle is significantly
under-inflated. A Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) sensor containing a
unique identification code is mounted on
each wheel. The TPMS sensors transmit
tire pressure signals to receiver which
relays the information to a tire pressure
monitoring system controller. When the
inflation pressure of one or more tires indi-
cates significant under-inflation, the low
tire pressure warning light shown below
comes on.
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 condi-
tions. 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.
 Do not use the hill hold control sys-
tem to bring the vehicle to a stop
on a hill.
