• vehicle condition
• a malfunction which causes the malfunc- tion indicator light to come on or blink Instantaneous fuel consumption
The display shows instantaneous fuel con-
sumption with a bar graph only when the
vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
• The display does not show the bar graph
unless the vehicle is moving.
• Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial set-
ting are indicated as L/100km, km/L,
MPG (UK) or MPG (US).
• The indicated maximum value of instan- taneous fuel consumption is one of the
followings. No more than the maximum
value will be indicated on the display
even if the actual instantaneous fuel
consumption is higher.
– For L/100km setting: 30
– For km/L setting: 50
– For MPG (UK) setting: 80
– For MPG (US) setting: 60
• The indication on the display may be
delayed if fuel consumption is greatly
affected by driving conditions.
• The display shows estimated values.
Indications may not be the same as
actual values. 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 ignition switch is turned to “ON” posi-
tion or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON. Unless
you reset the value of average fuel con-
sumption, the display indicates the value of
average fuel consumption based on the
average fuel consumption during previous
driving.
NOTE:
When you reconnect the negative (–) ter-
minal to the lead-acid battery, the value of
average fuel consumption will be shown
after driving 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 average fuel consumption will be reset automati-
cally by refueling.
• Reset with trip meter A: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset
automatically by resetting trip meter A.
• Reset manually: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset by push-
ing and holding the information switch
(2) when the display indicates the aver-
age fuel consumption.

Wiper and washer operationWhen the ignition switch is in “ON” position
or the ignition mode is ON, you can use
the wiper/washer lever or switch (if
equipped).
When the wipers are under heavy load
such as covered by snow, the breaker will
be activated and the wipers will stop oper-
ating to protect the wiper motor from over-
heating.
If the wiper stops during operation, do the
following methods.
1) Stop the vehicle in a safe place, andturn the engine off.
2) Move the wiper lever and switch to “OFF” position.
3) Remove obstacles such as snow on the wipers.
4) After a while, when the temperature of
the wiper motor becomes low enough,
the breaker will be reset automatically
and the wipers will be able to use.
If you cannot use the wipers after a while,
there may be another problem. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the wipers
inspected.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
To avoid possible injury, do not oper-
ate controls by reaching through the
steering wheel.

3-31OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
• The system will not allow shifting to the“R” position if the vehicle speed is over
about 3 km/h (2 mph). If the gearshift
lever is operated under this condition,
the “N” indicator in the instrument cluster
will blink. However, when the vehicle
speed drops below about 3 km/h (2
mph), the gear will be shifted to reverse.
Make sure that the vehicle has stopped
completely before shifting to the “R”
position. Stopping
The vehicle can be stopped by depressing
the brake pedal regardless of the gear
position. This is because the clutch is auto-
matically disengaged to prevent the engine
from stopping.
• If the gearshift lever is in the “D” position,
the gear will be downshifted to 1st when
the vehicle stops.
• If the gearshift lever is in the “M” posi- tion, the gear will be downshifted to 1st
when the vehicle stops.
NOTICE
On a downhill slope, never hold the
vehicle at a stop using only the accel-
erator pedal or the creeping function.
If you perform this operation for a
certain period of time, a warning
buzzer will sound, and in some cases
the engine will stall. This can also
cause excessive damage to the
clutch.
WA R N I N G
• When stopping, for example, at a
traffic light, be sure to depress the
brake pedal firmly. For your safety,
apply the parking brake, too, when
stopping on a hill.
• When racing the engine, make sure that the gear is in the “N” position
by checking the gear position indi-
cator. If the accelerator is operated
with the gear in any other position,
the vehicle may move resulting in
an unexpected accident.
• Do not leave your vehicle unat-
tended while the engine is running. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• When leaving the vehicle, stop the
engine and park the vehicle with a
gear engaged. If you need to leave
the vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brakes firmly,
and shift the gearshift lever to the
“N” position. Otherwise, the vehi-
cle may move unexpectedly and
may cause an accident.
NOTICE
• On a slope, never hold the vehicleat a stop using only the accelerator
pedal or the creeping function. If
you perform this operation for a
certain period of time, a warning
buzzer will sound, and in some
cases the engine will stall. This can
also cause excessive damage to
the clutch.
• If the gearshift lever is operated
more than necessary, the system
may not allow operation of the
gearshift lever for a certain period
of time, and the gear may not be
shifted appropriately. Therefore, do
not operate the gearshift lever if not
necessary.

3-35OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
ENG A-STOP system
(engine auto stop start system) (if equipped)The ENG A-STOP system (engine auto
stop start system) automatically stops and
restarts the engine when decelerating
before stopping and when the vehicle is
stopped, such as at a traffic signal, in order
to reduce exhaust gases, fuel consumption
and engine noise.
• This system automatically stops the engine under certain conditions. When
the vehicle will be stopped for a long
time or when you will leave the vehicle
unattended, set the parking brake firmly,
and then turn the ignition switch or press
the engine switch to stop the engine.
• If certain conditions are met, the engine is stopped automatically when decelerat-
ing (approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or
less for manual transaxle vehicles,
approximately 13 km/h (8 mph) or less
for CVT vehicles) before stopping. How-
ever, the engine will not be stopped
automatically during deceleration until
confirmation of the system function is fin-
ished. NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the auto-
matic heating and ai
r conditioning system,
you can change the automatic engine stop
condition via the information display. Refer
to “Setting mode” in “Information display
(instrument cluster with tachometer)” in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section.
75RM054
CAUTION
• Do not get out of the vehicle when the engine has been stopped auto-
matically by the ENG A-STOP sys-
tem. This may result in an accident.
– For manual transaxle, if the
driver’s seat belt is unfastened or
the driver’s door is opened, the
engine will be restarted to warn
you that the engine was stopped
automatically by the ENG A-
STOP system.
– For CVT, if the driver’s seat belt is unfastened, even if the brake
pedal is pressed down, or the
driver’s door is opened, the
engine will be restarted to warn
you that the engine was stopped
automatically by the ENG A-
STOP system.
• If the engine is not restarted auto- matically after being stopped by the
ENG A-STOP system, turn the igni-
tion switch or press the engine
switch to start the engine. Operating
the vehicle without restarting the
engine will require more effort for
steering and braking operations and
may result in an accident.

3-48
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
Eco-Cool (if equipped)When driving while using the air condi-
tioner, cold air is stored in the cooling stor-
age medium of the air conditioner unit.
Since stored cold air will be blown into the
vehicle when the engine has been stopped
automatically by the ENG A-STOP system,
the rise of the inside temperature can be
reduced when the air conditioner is not
running.
For the automatic heating and air condi-
tioning system, reducing the rise of the
inside temperature increases the length of
time that the engine is stopped automati-
cally, leading to improved fuel economy.
NOTE:
Sufficient cold air may not be stored if the
vehicle has not been running for very long
or in a traffic jam. The effect varies
depending on the outside temperature and
the air conditioner settings.
I/S AC Settings (if equipped)• When using the automatic heating andair conditioning system (if equipped),
you can select one of the following set-
tings via the setting mode of the informa-
tion display.
– Standard
– Economy
–Comfort
For details on how to use the information
display, refer to “Information display” in
the “BEFORE DRIVING” section.
• When “Economy” is selected, engine auto stop condition is eased, compared
with “Standard”. Engine auto stop condi-
tion will occur more f requently, the stop
time will be longer, leading to reduction
of fuel consumption.
• When “Comfort” is sel ected, engine auto
stop condition becomes severe, com-
pared with “Standard”. Engine auto stop
condition will occur less frequently, the
stop time will be shorter, leading to more
comfortable cabin condition by air condi-
tioner.
Cruise control (if equipped)The cruise control system allows you to
maintain a steady speed without keeping
your foot on the accelerator pedal. The
controls for operating the cruise control
system are on the steering wheel.
You can use the cruise control system
under the following conditions:
• For manual transaxle vehicle, the gear position is in 3rd, 4th or 5th.
• For CVT vehicle, the select lever is in “D” position, or the gear position is in 3rd,
4th, 5th, 6th or 7th in the manual mode
(if equipped).
• For Auto Gear Shift vehicle, the select lever is in “D” position, or the gear posi-
tion is in 3rd, 4th or 5th in the manual
mode.
• The vehicle speed is about 45 km/h (28
mph) or higher.
WA R N I N G
To help avoid loss of vehicle control,
do not use the cruise control system
when driving in heavy traffic, on slip-
pery or winding roads, or on steep
downhills.

Improving fuel economyThe following instructions will help you
improve fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idling
If you are to wait for more than a minute
while you are parked, stop the engine and
start it again later. When warming up a
cold engine, do not allow the engine to idle
or apply full throttle until the engine has
reached operating temperature. Allow the
engine to warm up by driving.
Avoid fast starts
Fast starts away from lights or stop signs
will consume fuel unnecessarily and
shorten engine life. Start off slowly.
Avoid unnecessary stops
Avoid unnecessary deceleration and stop-
ping. Try to maintain a slow, steady speed
whenever possible. Slowing down and
then accelerating aga in uses more fuel.
Keep a steady cruising speed
Drive at a constant speed that road and
traffic conditions will permit.
NOTICE
To minimize the possibility of cata-
lytic converter or other vehicle dam-
age:
• Maintain the engine in the proper operating condition.
• In the event of an engine malfunc-
tion, particularly one involving
engine misfire or other apparent
loss of performance, have the vehi-
cle serviced promptly.
• Do not turn off the engine or inter-
rupt the ignition when the transaxle
is in gear and the vehicle is in
motion.
• Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle, or
coasting down a hill.
• Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected or
removed, such as during diagnos-
tic testing.
• Do not idle the vehicle for pro- longed periods if idling seems
rough or there are other malfunc-
tions.
• Do not allow the fuel tank to get
near the empty level.
WA R N I N G
Be careful where you park and drive;
the catalytic converter and other
exhaust components can get very
hot. As with any vehicle, do not park
or operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry
grass or leaves can come in contact
with a hot exhaust system.

If you pay too much attention to
operating the audio system or view-
ing the audio system display while
driving, an accident can occur. If
you set the sound volume too loud,
it could prevent you from being
aware of road and tr affic conditions.
• Keep your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive. Avoid pay-
ing too much attention to operat-
ing the audio system or viewing
the audio system display.
• Familiarize yourself with the audio
system controls and operation of
the audio system before driving.
• Preset your favorite radio stations
before driving so that you can
quickly tune to them using the
presets.
• Set the sound volume to a level that will allow you to continue to
be aware of road and traffic condi-
tions while driving.
