To turn the lights on or off, twist the knob
on the end of the lever. There are four
positions:
OFF (1)
All lights are off.
AUTO (2)
This function works when the ignition
mode has been changed to “ON” by press-
ing the engine switch. The headlights and
position lights are turned on and off auto-
matically according to the amount of out-
side light detected by a sensor. They go
out automatically when you change the
ignition mode to “ACC” or “LOCK” by
pressing the engine switch.
The light sensor (5) for sensing the amount
of outside light is installed on the upper
part of the windshield. It also serves as the
rain sensor for the rain-sensing wipers.NOTE:
• Avoid covering the light sensor area of
the windshield with a sticker. The sticker
may impair the performance of the sen-
sor and make the system unable to con-
trol operation of the lights correctly.
• If you changed the ignition mode to “ON”
by pressing the engine switch and
“AUTO” position remains selected, the
headlights and position lights come on
automatically as it gets dark outside,
even with the engine not running. Leav-
ing the lights lit for a long time may lead
to a completely discharged battery.
(3)
Front position lights, tail lights, license
plate light and instrument lights are on, but
headlights are off. (4)
Front position lights, tail lights, license
plate light, instrument lights and headlights
are on.
61MM0A075
With the headlights on, push the lever for-
ward to switch to the high beams (main
beams) or pull the lever toward you to
switch to the low beams. When the high
beams (main beams) are on, a light on the
instrument cluster will come on. To
momentarily activate the high beams (main
beams) as a passing signal, pull the lever
slightly toward you and release it when you
have completed the signal.
CAUTION
If the light sensor area of the wind-
shield is covered with mud, ice, or
other similar substances, the head-
lights and position lights may be
turned on even when it is still light
outside. Before removing such sub-
stances from the windshield, always
set the wiper control lever to “OFF”
position. If the lever is left in “AUTO”
position, the wipers could unexpect-
edly operate and cause injury, and
could also be damaged.

Auto-on headlight system
54P000236
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 “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 windshield. Do
not cover the sensor (5). Otherwise, 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
preference. Please contact an authorized
SUZUKI dealer if you want the function
reprogrammed.
Sensitivity of the light sensor
The amount of outside light needed to turn
the lights on and off is pre-set at the fac-
tory. The sensitivity of the light sensor can
be adjusted so that the lights are turned on
and off when it is:
• lighter outside than the pre-set condition,
or
• darker outside than the pre-set conditionRain-triggered automatic lighting oper-
ation
The setting of the auto-on headlight sys-
tem can be changed to make it turn on the
headlights:
• when the rain sensor senses heavy rain-
fall
• when the rain sensor senses light and
heavy rainfall (in coordination with rain-
sensing wiper operation), or
• independently from rain-sensing wiper
operation.
Light reminder buzzer
The interior buzzer continuously beeps if
you open the driver’s door without turning
off the headlights and position lights. This
function is triggered under the following
condition:
The headlights and/or position lights are
on even after the ignition switch is turned
off, or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “LOCK”
(OFF).
The buzzer stops sounding when you turn
off the headlights and position lights.
NOTE:
A message is indicated on the information
display in the instrument cluster while the
buzzer is sounding.
WA R N I N G
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, etc.

Wiper and washer operation
When the ignition switch is in “ON” position
or the ignition mode is “ON”, you can use
the wiper/washer lever or switch (if
equipped).
Windshield wipers
61MM0A079
To turn the windshield wipers on, move the
lever down to one of the three operating
positions. In “INT” position, the wipers
operate intermittently. The “INT” position is
very convenient for driving in mist or light
rain. In “LO” position, the wipers operate at
a steady low speed. In “HI” position, the
wipers operate at a steady high speed. To
turn off the wipers, move the lever back to
“OFF” position.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
To avoid possible injury, do not oper-
ate controls by reaching through the
steering wheel.

Move the lever up and hold it to “MIST”
position, the windshield wipers will turn on
continuously at low speed.
61MM0A080
If the lever is equipped with “INT TIME”
control, turn the control forward or back-
ward to adjust the intermittent wiper opera-
tion to the desired interval.
Windshield wipers with rain sens-ing function (if equipped)
61MM0A081
Press the engine switch to change the igni-
tion mode to “ON”. To turn the rain-sensing
wipers on, move the lever down to one of
the three operating positions. In “AUTO”
position (if provided), the wipers automati-
cally operate when the wiper system
senses rain or snow. In “LO” position, the
wipers operate at a steady low speed. In
“HI” position, the wipers operate at a
steady high speed. To turn off the wipers,
move the lever back to “OFF” position.
Move the lever up and hold it to “MIST”
position; the wipers will operate continu-
ously at low speed for as long as you hold
the lever in “MIST” position.
61MM0A082
If the control lever has on “AUTO” position,
you can change the system’s sensitivity to
rain/snow by turning the knob of the con-
trol lever increased sensitivity or backward
for decreased sensitivity.
