What is MP3?
• An abbreviation of “MPEG audio layer3”,
MP3 is an audio compression format
that has become the standard format
among PC users. Its merit is that the
original audio data is compressed to
approximately 1/10 and high sound qual-
ity is maintained. This means that it is
possible to store the data of approxi-
mately 10 music CDs on a single CD-R/
RW disc, which in turn makes it possible
to play music for a long time without hav-
ing to change the disc.
What is WMA?
• An abbreviation of “Windows Media
Audio,” WMA is an audio compression
format developed by Microsoft.
• WMA files for which the DRM (Digital
Rights Management) function is on can-
not be played.
• Windows Media
TM and the Windows®
logo are trademarks or registered trade-
marks of Microsoft Corporation in the
United States and other countries.
What is AAC?
• An abbreviation of “Advanced Audio
Coding,” AAC is an audio compression
format used by MPEG2 and MPEG4.Points to remember when making MP3/
WMA/AAC files
Common
• High bit rate and high sampling fre-
quency are recommended for high qual-
ity sounds.
• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not
recommended. Selecting VBR may
cause display of incorrect playing time
and jumpiness of playback.
• Playback sound quality varies depend-
ing on the encoding environment. For
details, refer to the user manual of the
encoding software and the writing soft-
ware in use.

NOTICE
Never use “.mp3”, “.wma” or “.m4a”
as a file name extension if it is not in

ure to observe this may result in
damage to the speaker due to noise
production.

VEHICLE LOADING AND TOWING
54P00-01E
Vehicle loading
Your vehicle was designed for specific
weight capacities. The weight capacities of
your vehicle are indicated by the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the
Permissible maximum Axle Weight (PAW,
front and rear). The GVWR and PAW (front
and rear) are listed in “SPECIFICATIONS”
section.
GVWR – Maximum permissible overall
weight of the fully loaded vehicle (including
all the occupants, accessories and cargo
plus the trailer nose weight if towing a
trailer).
PAW (front and rear) – Maximum permissi-
ble weight on an individual axle.
Actual weight of the loaded vehicle and
actual loads at the front and rear axles can
only be determined by weighing the vehi-
cle. Compare these weights to the GVWR
and PAW (front and rear). If the gross vehi-
cle weight or the load on either axle
exceeds these ratings, you must remove
enough weight to bring the load down to
the rated capacity.
Trailer towing
60A185
While towing a trailer can adversely affect
handling, durability and fuel economy. Your
vehicle can be used to tow a trailer which
does not exceed the towing capacity spec-
ified below:
Maximum towing capacity
(trailer, cargo & tow bar)
M16A engine model
Braked trailer: 1200 kg (2646 lbs)
Unbraked trailer: 400 kg (882 lbs)
D16AA engine model
Braked trailer: 1500 kg (3307 lbs)
Unbraked trailer: 600 kg (1323 lbs)
WA R N I N G
Never overload your vehicle. The
gross vehicle weight (sum of the
weights of the vehicle, all the occu-
pants, accessories, cargo plus trailer
nose weight if towing a trailer) must
never exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR). In addition,
never distribute a load so that the
weight on either the front or rear axle
exceeds the Permissible maximum
Axle Weight (PAW).
WA R N I N G
Always distribute cargo evenly. To
avoid personal injury or damage to
your vehicle, always secure cargo to
prevent it from shifting if the vehicle
moves suddenly. Place heavier
objects on the floor and as far for-
ward in the cargo area as possible.
Never pile cargo higher than the top
of the seat backs.

Maintenance schedule
The following table shows the times when
you should perform regular maintenance
on your vehicle. This table shows the tim-
ing when you should perform inspections,
adjustments, lubrication and other ser-
vices, by kilometer, mile and month.
This table is generated in terms of the fol-
lowing points:
• Place of destination
• For gasoline engine model or diesel
engine model
• Recommended maintenance items for
inspection, adjustment and replacement
by a dealer, or items other than the
above-mentioned ones
Check an explanation of “How to under-
stand each table” in this section.If your routine use of vehicle applies in one
of the following conditions, you need to
perform maintenance according to the
maintenance interval under severe condi-
tion. For some items, the maintenance
interval for severe condition is not
described in the table. In this case, perform
maintenance according to the mainte-
nance interval for normal condition.
The maintenance interval for severe condi-
tion is shorter than the one for normal con-
dition.Maintenance recommended under
severe driving conditions
• When most trips are less than 6 kilome-
ters (4 miles)
• When most trips are less than 16 kilome-
ters (10 miles) and outside temperature
remains below freezing
• Idling and/or low-speed operation in
stop-and-go traffic
• Operating in extremely cold weather
and/or on salted roads
• Operating in rough and/or muddy areas.
• Operating in dusty areas
• Repeated high speed drive or high
engine revolutions
• Towing a trailer, if admitted
When the vehicle is used for delivery ser-
vice, police, taxi or other commercial appli-

WA R N I N G
SUZUKI recommends that mainte-
nance of your vehicle be performed
by your authorized SUZUKI dealer or
