Temporary stop of the stereo camera
Under the following situations, the function
of the stereo camera stops temporarily.
When the situations are improved, the
temporary stop of the function will be can-
celed.
• When the visibility of the stereo camerais poor
• When the temperature of the body of
stereo camera i s low or high
• When the systems related the dual cam- era brake support stops temporarily
• When the lead-acid battery has a volt- age abnormality
• When the automatic adjustment of the
stereo camera is insufficient
Failure of the stereo camera
When the stereo camera is failure, the
function of the stereo camera stops until
the ignition switch is turned to “LOCK”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF).
Find a safe place to park and turn the igni-
tion switch to “LOCK” position or change
the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF) by press-
ing the engine switch.
Restart the engine, and check that the dual
camera brake support indicator light and
lane departure warning indicator light go
off.
• If both of the indicators stay on after restarting the engine, there may be a
failure of the stereo camera. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the stereo cam-
era inspected. It is thought that the cause of failure is the
followings.
• When the stereo camera has an abnor-
mality
• When the temperature of the body of stereo camera is t oo low or too high
• When the mounting position of the ste- reo camera is shifted greatly
• When there are communication abnor-
malities among the engine, transaxle
and brake controller
• When the dual camera brake support
OFF switch has an abnormality
• When the steering angle sensor has an abnormality
• When the power supply of the stereo camera is cut
NOTE:
• Under the following situations, the dual camera brake support indicator light and
lane departure warning indicator light
come on after the engine has started, it
does not indicate a malfunction. Once
the ignition switch is turned to “LOCK”
position or the engine switch is pressed
to change the ignition mode to LOCK
(OFF) and then the engine is restarted,
these indicators will go off.
– When the automatic brake system hasbeen operating 3 times
– When the automatic brake system has
been operating for long periods • The function of the stereo camera stops
if the dual camera brake support indica-
tor light and lane departure warning indi-
cator light come on and there may be a
failure of the stereo camera, but it does
not hinder normal driving.

Emergency stop signal (ESS) (if equipped)ESS stands for Emergency Stop Signal.
ESS is a feature that gives a war ning to a following vehicle by flashing all turn signal lights
faster than usual if all the following conditions are met. Also , within these conditions, it will
flash along with your turn signal in the instrument cluster.
• When you slam down on the brakes at speeds of approximately 55 km/h (34 mph) or
over.
• When the ABS is activated or when you suddenly brake similar to activating the ABS.
74P40170
The ESS will stop functioning in the following situations:
• When the vehicle speed decreases enough
• When you release the brake
• When the ABS is no longer activated
• When you turn on the hazard warning switchEXAMPLE
NOTE:
• The ESS feature cannot be deactivated.
• Use of the hazard warning switch should
be given preference over the ESS.
• When driving on the following surfaces and the ABS gives out momentarily, the
ESS may not function.
– When driving on slippery surfaces
– When driving over bumps on the road
such as highway joint seams
WA R N I N G
Although the ESS is designed to
reduce the number of rear-end
crashes that occur from sudden brak-
ing, by warning a following vehicle, it
cannot prevent all crashes. Always
make an effort to drive safely and
avoid unnecessary sudden braking
when stopping or decelerating.

If the rear view from the rearview cam-
era is not shown or there is a poor
image
• If the rear view from the rearview camerais not shown.
– Check that the ignition switch is in
“ON” position or the ignition mode is
ON.
– Check that the gearshift lever is
shifted to “R” position.
• If the image from the rearview camera is poor.
– Check that the camera lens is not dirty.
– Check that light from the sun or thebeam of the headlights from the vehi-
cle behind is not shining directly into
the lens.
If the rearview camera system is still not
working properly after checking the above,
have the system inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
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 depress the brake pedal
when there is plenty of distance between
your vehicle and the stopping point, and
slow down gradually.
Power-assisted brakesYour vehicle has power-assisted brakes. If
power assistance is lo st due to a stalled
engine or other failure s, 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.
WA R N I N G
If water gets into the brake devices,
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.

Brake assist systemWhen you slam the brakes on, the brake
assist system determines it to be an emer-
gency 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 clicking sound by
the brake assist system operation. This is
normal and indicates that the brake assist
system is activated properly.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec-
tronically controlling braking pressure. It
will also help you maintain steering control
when braking on slippery surfaces or when
braking hard.
The ABS works automatically, so you do
not need any special braking technique.
Just push the brake pedal down without
pumping. The ABS will operate whenever
it senses that the wheels are locking up.
You may feel the brake pedal move a little
while the ABS is operating.
NOTE:
• The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is under about 9 km/h (6 mph).
• If the ABS system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-
ing in the brake pedal. This is normal
and indicates that the brake fluid pres-
sure is being controlled properly.
• You may hear an operation sound when you start the engine or after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the
above systems are in the self-check
mode. This sound does not indicate a
malfunction.
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.
WA R N I N G
• On some types of loose surfaces (such as gravel, snow-covered
roads, etc.), the stopping distance
required for a vehicle with ABS
may be slightly greater than the
one required for a comparable vehi-
cle with a conventional brake sys-
tem. With a conventional brake
system, skidding tires are able to
plow the gravel or snow layer,
shortening the stopping distance.
ABS minimizes this resistance
effect. Allow for extra stopping dis-
tance when driving on loose sur-
faces.
• On regular paved roads, some driv-
ers may be able to obtain slightly
shorter stopping distances with
conventional brake systems than
with ABS.
• In both of the above conditions, ABS will still offer the advantage of
helping you maintain directional
control. However, remember that
ABS will not compensate for bad
road or weather conditions or poor
driver judgment. Use good judg-
ment and do not drive too fast.

(1) ABS warning light
(2) Brake system warning light
How ABS worksA computer continuously monitors wheel
speed. The computer compares the
changes in wheel speed when braking. If
the wheels slow suddenly, indicating a
skidding situation, the computer will
change braking pressure several times
each second to prevent the wheels from
locking. When you start your vehicle or
when you accelerate after a hard stop, you
may hear a momentary motor or clicking
noise as the system resets or checks itself.

WA R N I N G
• If the ABS warning light (1) on theinstrument cluster comes on and
stays on while driving, there may
be a problem with the ABS system.
Ask your SUZUKI dealer to inspect
the ABS system immediately. If the
ABS system becomes inoperative,
the brake system will function as
an ordinary brake system that has
no ABS.
• If the ABS warning light (1) and the
brake system warning light (2) on
the instrument cluster simultane-
ously stay on or come on while
driving, both anti-lock function and
rear brake force control function
(proportioning valve function) of
the ABS system may have failed. If
so, the rear wheels may easily skid
or the vehicle can even spin in the
worst case when braking on a slip-
pery road or when hard braking
even on a dry paved road. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to inspect the ABS
system immediately. Drive care-
fully, avoiding hard braking as
much as possible.
WA R N I N G
The ABS may not work properly if
tires or wheels other than those
specified in the owner’s manual are
used. This is because the ABS works
by comparing changes in wheel
speed. When replacing tires or
wheels, use only the size and type
specified in this owner’s manual.

Hill descent control system (if equipped)The hill descent cont rol system is designed
to reduce the driver’s workload when going
down steep, rough and/or slippery hills
where the vehicle cannot decelerate
enough by engine braking alone. The hill
descent control system helps to control
vehicle speed by automatically engaging
the vehicle’s brakes, as needed, so you
can concentrate on steering the vehicle.
(1)
WA R N I N G
Do not rely excessively on the hill
descent control system. The hill
descent control system may not con-
trol the vehicle speed on a hill under
all load or road conditions. Always be
prepared to control vehicle speed by
applying the brakes. Failure to pay
attention and control vehicle speed
using the brakes when necessary
may result in loss of control or an
accident.

To activate the hill descent control system:
1) Shift the gearshift lever into a forward
gear or reverse gear.2) Push the hill descent control switch (1) when the vehicle speed is under 25 km/h
(15 mph). The hill descent control indica-
tor on the instrument cluster will come on
and the hill descent control system will be
activated.
When the vehicle speed exceeds about 7
km/h (4 mph) without depressing the
accelerator pedal, the hill descent control
system applies the brak es automatically to
maintain the vehicle speed at about 7 km/h
(4 mph).
• When braking, the brake/tail lights come on and the ESP
® warning light blinks.
• When the vehicle speed exceeds about
40 km/h (25 mph), the hill descent con-
trol system stops functioning and the hill
descent control indicator goes off. When
the vehicle slows down below about 25
km/h (16 mph), the hill descent control
system will be activated again and the
hill descent control indicator will come
on.
NOTE:
You may hear a sound coming from the
engine when the hill descent control sys-
tem is activated. This sound is normal and
does not indicate a malfunction.
To turn off the hill descent control system,
push the hill descent control switch and
turn off the hill descent control indicator
light.

• When the hill descent control sys- tem is used continuously for a long
time, the temperature of the brake
system may increase and the hill
descent control system may be
deactivated tempor arily to protect
the device of the brake system. The
hill descent control indicator blinks
to let you know the system is deac-
tivated. Depress the brake pedal
and stop the vehicle in a safe place.
When the temperature of the brake
system goes down, the hill descent
control indicator will come on and
the system is activated again. (Continued)

• The hill descent control system
may be activated when the gear-
shift lever is in “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion, but engine braking will not
work. Always use the hill descent
control system with the gearshift
lever in a forward gear or reverse
gear.
• When using the hill descent control system, push the hill descent con-
trol switch and ma ke sure that the
hill descent control indicator light
comes on and no warning message
indicates on the information dis-
play.
• While operating the hill descent control system, the dual camera
