BEFORE DRIVING
Instantaneous fuel consumption The display shows instantaneous fuel con­sumption 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 set­ting are indicated as U100km, km/L or MPG (UK). The indicated maximum value of instan­taneous 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 U100km setting: 30 -For km/L setting: 50 -For MPG (UK) setting: 80 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.
2-31
Average fuel consumption If you previously selected average fuel consumption setting, the display shows average fuel consumption from the last reset to the present when the ignition switch is turned "ON".
NOTE: When you reconnect the terminals to the lead-acid battery, the value of average fuel consumption will be shown after driving for a period of time.
You can select the timing to reset the value of average fuel consumption by one of the following three methods; Reset after refuel: the value of average fuel consumption will be reset automati­cally 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 push­ing and holding the indicator selector knob (3) when the display indicates the average fuel consumption.
To change the timing to reset the value of average fuel consumption, refer to "Setting mode" in this section.
NOTE: If you add only a small amount of fuel when you select "Reset after refuel", the average fuel consumption value may not be reset.
Driving range If you selected driving range the last time you drove the vehicle, the display indicates "---" for a few seconds and then indicates the current driving range when the ignition switch is turned "ON".
The driving range shown in the display is the approximate distance you can drive until the fuel gauge indicates "E", based on current driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on, the display "---" will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill the fuel tank immediately regardless of the value of driving range shown in the display.
When you refuel, the driving range is updated. However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the correct value will not be displayed.

NOTE: If you refuel when the ignition switch is "ON", the driving range may not indicate the correct value. When you reconnect the terminals to the lead-acid battery, the value of driving range will be shown after driving for a period of time.
Average speed If you selected average speed the last time you drove the vehicle, the display indicates the last value of average speed from previ­ous driving when the ignition switch is turned "ON". Unless you reset the value of average speed, the display indicates the value of average speed which includes average speed during previous driving.
To reset the value of average speed, push and hold the indicator selector knob (3) for a while when the display indicates an aver­age speed. The display shows "---" and then indicates a new average speed after driving for a short time.
NOTE: When you reconnect the terminals to the lead-acid battery, the value of average speed will be shown after driving for a period of time.
Driving time The display shows the total amount of driv­ing time since the indication was reset. To reset the driving time, push and hold the indicator selector knob (3) for a while when the display shows the driving time.
NOTE: When you reset the indication or recon­nect the terminals to the lead-acid bat­tery, the driving time will be shown after driving for a while. The indicated maximum value of driving time is 99:59:59. No more than the maxi­mum value will be indicated on the dis­play until you reset the driving time.
Gearshift indicator
The display (D) shows the gearshift indica­tor.
Refer to "Gearshift indicator" in "OPERAT­ING YOUR VEHICLE" section.
BEFORE DRIVING
Trip meter
The display (E) shows the trip meter.
The trip meter can be used to measure the distance traveled on short trips or between fuel stops. You can use trip meter A or trip meter B independently.
To reset the trip meter, push and hold the trip meter selector knob (2) for a while.
NOTE: The indicated maximum value of the trip meter is 9999.9. When you run past the maximum value, the indicated value will return to 0.0.
Odometer
The display (F) shows the odometer.
The odometer records the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
NOTICE
Keep track of your odometer reading and check the maintenance sched­ule regularly for required services. Increased wear or damage to certain parts can result from failure to per­form required services at the proper mileage intervals.

A. WARNING
The load-carrying capacity of your tyres is reduced at lower inflation pressures. If your tyres are even moderately under-inflated, the load on the tyres may exceed the load-car­rying capacity of the tyres, which could lead to tyre failure. The low tyre pressure warning light will not alert you to this condition, because it only comes on when one or more of your tyres becomes significantly under­
inflated. Check and adjust your tyre pressure at least once a month. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAIN­TENANCE" section.
A. WARNING
Continuing to drive with the low tyre pressure warning light on can lead to an accident, resulting in severe injury or death. If the low tyre pressure warning light comes on and stays on, reduce your speed and avoid abrupt steering and braking. Be aware that driving on a significantly under-inflated tyre can cause the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure, and may affect steering control and brake effective­ness. Stop the vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible and check your
tyres. • If you have a flat tyre, replace it with the spare tyre (if equipped). Refer to "Jacking instructions11 in "EMERGENCY SERVICE" section for the tyre replacement method. Also refer to "Replacing tyres and/ or wheels" for instructions on how to restore normal operation of the TPMS after you have had a flat tyre. If one or more of your tyres is under-inflated, adjust the inflation pressure of all tyres to the recom­mended inflation pressure as soon as possible.
BEFORE DRIVING
Refer to "Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)" in "OPERATING YOUR VEHI­CLE" section for additional details on the tyre pressure monitoring system. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTE­NANCE" section for information on main­taining proper tyre pressure.

BEFORE DRIVING
Brake system warning light
(CD)
82K170
Three different types of operations exist depending on the vehicle's specification.
• The light comes on briefiy when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". The light comes on when the parking brake is engaged with the ignition switch "ON". The light comes on under either or both of above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fiuid in the brake fiuid reservoir falls below the specified level.
The light should go out after starting the engine and fully releasing the parking brake, if the fluid level in the brake fiuid reservoir is adequate.
The light also comes on together with the ABS warning light when the rear brake force control function (proportioning valve function) of the ABS system fails. If the brake system warning light comes on while you are driving the vehicle, it may mean that there is something wrong with
2-41
the vehicle's brake system. If this happens:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
A WARNING
Remember that stopping distance may be longer, you may have to push harder on the pedal, and the pedal may go down farther than normal.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting and stopping the vehicle on the shoul­der of the road. 3) If you determine that it is safe, drive the vehicle cautiously at low speed to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs or tow the vehicle to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs.
A WARNING
If any of the following conditions occur, you should immediately ask a SUZUKI dealer to inspect the brake system. If the brake system warning light does not go out after the engine has been started and the parking brake has been fully released. If the brake system warning light does not come on when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". If the brake system warning light comes on at any time during vehi­cle operation.
NOTE: Because the brake system is self-adjust­ing, the fluid level will drop as the brake pads become worn. Replenishing the brake fluid reservoir is considered normal periodic maintenance.
NOTE: Parking brake reminder buzzer A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind you to release the parking brake if you start the vehicle without releasing the park­ing brake. Check that the parking brake is fully released and the brake system warn­ing light turns off.

Anti-lock brake system {ABS) warn­
ing light
(8)
65D529
When the ignition switch is turned "ON", this light comes on briefiy so you can check that the light is working. If the light stays on or comes on when driv­ing, there may be something wrong with the ABS.
If this happens: 1) Pull off the road and stop carefully. 2) Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" and then start the engine again.
If the warning light comes on briefiy and then turns off, the system is normal. If the warning light still stays on, something is wrong with the system.
If the light and the brake system warning light stay on or come on simultaneously when driving, your ABS system is equipped with the rear brake force control function (proportioning valve function) and there may be something wrong with both the rear brake force control function and the anti-lock function of the ABS system.
If one of the above occurs, have the sys­tem inspected by a SUZUKI dealer. If the ABS becomes inoperative, the brake system will function as an ordinary brake system that does not have this ABS sys­
tem.
For details of ABS system, refer to "Anti­lock brake system (ABS)" in "OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE" section.
