OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
A WARNING
If the ABS warning light (1) on the instrument cluster comes on and stays on while driving, there may be a problem with the ABS system. Ask a 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 simultane­ously 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 slip­pery road or when hard braking even on a dry paved road. Ask a SUZUKI dealer to inspect the ABS system immediately. Drive care­fully, avoiding hard braking as much as possible.
3-55
How ABS works
A 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.
A WARNING
The ABS may not work properly if tyres 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 tyres or wheels, use only the size and type specified in this owner's manual.
Electronic stability program
(ESP®)
ESP® is a registered trademark of Daimler
AG.
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP®) helps to control the vehicle during corner­ing if front wheels or rear wheels skid. It also assists you in maintaining traction while accelerating on loose or slippery road surfaces. It does this by regulating the engine's output, and by_ . selective!¥ applying the brakes. In add1t1on, ESP helps to avoid skidding by controlling brak­ing pressure.
A WARNING
The ESP® cannot enhance the vehi­cle's driving stability in all situations and does not control your vehicle's entire braking system. The ESP® can­not prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, or hydroplaning. Only safe and attentive drive can prevent acci­dents. The capabilities of an ESP®­
equipped vehicle must never be used as a substitute for careful driving.

The ESP® has the following three sys­tems:
Stability control system
The vehicle stability control system helps provide integrated control of systems such as anti-lock brakes, traction control, engine control, etc. This system automatically controls the brakes and engine to help pre­vent the vehicle from skidding when cor­nering on a slippery road surface or when turning the steering wheel abruptly.
Traction control system
The traction control system automatically helps prevent the spinning of wheels when the vehicle is started or accelerated on slippery road surfaces. The system oper­ates only if it senses that some of the wheels are spinning or beginning to lose traction. When this happens, the system operates the front or rear brakes and reduces engine power to l1m1t wheel spin.
NOTE: 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.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec­tronically 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 have to use any spe­cial braking technique. Just push the brak_e pedal down without pumping. The ABS will operate whenever it senses that wheels are locking up. You may feel the brake pedal pulsate while the ABS is operating. (For more information on ABS, see "Brak­ing" in this section.)
NOTE: The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is under about 9 km/h (6 mph).
A WARNING
The ESP® may not work properly if tyres or wheels other than those specified in the owner's manual are used. When replacing tyres or wheels, use only the size and type specified in this owner's manual. • The ESP® may not work properly if ·tyres are not inflated to the recom­
mended ~re pressure. The ESP" may not work properly if tyres are fitted with snow chains. (Continued)
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
A WARNING
(Continued) • The ESP® may not work properly if the tyres are excessively worn. Replace tyres when the tread wear indicators in the grooves appear on the tread surface. • The ESP® is not a substitute for winter tyres or snow chains on a snowMcovered road.
A WARNING
• The ESP® may not work properly if engine related parts such as the muffler are not equivalent to stan­dard equipment or are extremely deteriorated. Do not modify the vehicle's sus­pension since the ESP® may not work properly.
NOTE: • If the Espi!) system is activated, you may hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat­ing in the brake pedal. This is. normal and indicates that the brake flwd pres­sure 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.

DRIVING TIPS
Snow chains
Snow chains should only be used if they are needed to increase traction or are required by law. Check that the chains you use are the correct size for your vehicle's tyres. Also check that there is enough clearance between the fenders and the chains as installed on the tyres. Install the chains on the rear tyres tightly, according to the chain manufacturer's instructions. Retighten the chains after driving about 1.0 km (1/2 mile) if neces­sary. With the chains installed, drive slowly.
NOTICE
If you hear the chains hitting against the vehicle body while driving, stop and tighten them.

Do not drive in the field covered
with grown grass
If you drive in the field covered with grass, it may cause accident or vehicle damage by getting caught in grown grass.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck
If your vehicle gets stuck in snow, mud, or sand, follow the directions below:
1) Shift the transfer shift lever into the "4L"
position. 2) Shift the transmission back and forth between a forward range (or first gear for manual transmission) and reverse. This will create a rocking motion which may give you enough momentum to free the vehicle. Press gently on the accelerator to keep wheel spin to a min­imum. Remove your foot from the accelerator while shifting. Do not race the engine. Excessive wheel spin will cause the tyres to dig deeper, making it more difficult to free the vehicle. 3) If your vehicle remains stuck after a few minutes of rocking, get another vehicle to pull you out.
A WARNING
Do not allow anyone to stand near the vehicle when you are rocking it, and do not spin the wheels faster than an indicated 40 km/h (25 mph) on the speedometer. Personal injury and/or vehicle damage may result from spinning the wheels too fast.
NOTICE
• Release the accelerator pedal when operating the gearshift lever or the transfer lever. Operating the gear­shift lever or the transfer lever with the engine racing can damage the gears and the free axle mechanism. • Do not continue rocking the vehicle for more than a few minutes. Pro­longed rocking can cause engine overheating, transmission, trans­fer case, axles, propeller shaft or differential damage, or tyre dam­age.

A WARNING
In addition to following the driving tips in this section, it is important to observe the following precautions. • Check that your tyres are in good condition and always maintain the specified tyre pressure. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE" section for details. (Continued)
A WARNING
(Continued) Do not use tyres other than those specified by SUZUKI. Never use dif­ferent sizes or types of tyres on the front and rear wheels. For informa­tion regarding the specified tyres, refer to the tyre information label located on the driver's door lock pillar. Never use oversized tyres or spe~ cial shock absorbers and springs to raise uack up) your vehicle. This will change the handling character­istics. Oversized tyres may also rub against the fender over bumps, causing vehicle damage, drive train damage or tyre failure. After driving through water, 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.
DRIVING TIPS
When encountering a flooded area
80J042
Avoid driving in a flooded area or a deep puddle. If driving in a flooded area is unavoidable, go slowly in the lowest gear. In case that you have driven in a flooded area, stop the vehicle in a safe place while checking the brake effectiveness. Then, ask a SUZUKI dealer or a qualified work­shop to check the following inspection items. Function of brake Function of electrical components Changes of oil level and quality for engine, transmission and differential. In case that the oil is turbid whitely, water has been mixed in the oil and an oil change is required. Lubricant condition of the bearings, sus­pension joints, etc.

A WARNING
In addition to following the driving tips in this section, it is important to observe the following precautions for on-road and off-road driving. Driver and passengers should wear seat belts at all times. Do not let anyone else drive your vehicle unless they are also aware of the vehicle characteristics and handling differences described in this section. Avoid loaning your vehicle to any• one unless you accompany them. Make sure your tyres are in good condition and always maintain the specified tyre pressure. Refer to "Tyres" in the "INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE" section for details. Do not use tyres other than those specified by SUZUKI. Never use dif• ferent sizes or types of tyres on the front and rear wheels. For informa• lion regarding the specified tyres, refer to the "SPECIFICATIONS" section. Never use oversized tyres or spe­cial shock absorbers and springs to raise uack up) your vehicle. This will raise the center of gravity of the vehicle and change its handling characteristics. (Continued)
A WARNING
(Continued) After driving through water, mud, or sandy ground, test the brakes while driving at a slow speed to see if they have maintained their nor• mal 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 nor• mal effectiveness. After extended operation in mud, sand, or water, have the brakes, bearings and joint parts etc. inspected by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
DRIVING TIPS
Running-in
NOTICE
The future performance and reliabil• ity of the engine depends on the care and restraint exercised during its early life. It is especially important to observe the following precautions during the first 960 km (600 miles) of vehicle operation. • After starting, do not race the engine. Warm ii up gradually. • Avoid prolonged vehicle operation at a constant speed. Moving parts will break in better if you vary your speed. Start off from a stop slowly. Avoid full throttle starts. Avoid hard braking, especially during the first 320 km (200 miles) of driving. Do not drive slowly with the !rans• mission in a high gear. Drive the vehicle at moderate engine speeds. Do not tow a trailer during the first 960 km (600 miles) of vehicle oper• ation.

A CAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rocks can damage tyres and affect wheel alignment. Have tyres and wheel alignment checked periodically by a SUZUKI dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts. 5) Check that there are no nails, stones or other objects sticking into the tyres.
A WARNING
• Your SUZUKI vehicle is equipped with tyres which are all the same type and size. This is important to ensure proper steering and han­dling of the vehicle. Never mix tyres of different size or type on the four wheels of your vehicle. The size and type of tyres used should be only those approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your vehicle. Replacing the wheels and tyres equipped on your vehicle with cer­tain combinations of aftermarket wheels and tyres can significantly change the steering and handling characteristics of your vehicle. Therefore, use only those wheel and tyre combinations approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your vehicle.
NOTICE
Replacing the original tyres with tyres of a different size may result in false speedometer or odometer readings. Check with a SUZUKI dealer before purchasing replace­ment tyres that differ in size from the original tyres. Replacing a tyre with one of a dif­ferent size, or using different brands among the four tyres can result in damage to the drive train.
