Starting off on an uphill/downhill slope:
Uphill 1) Apply the parking brake firmly so that the vehicle does not roll backwards. 2) Shift the gearshift lever to the “M” posi-tion while depressing the brake pedal. Make sure that the gear position indica- tor in the instrument al cluster displays 1st gear. 3) Release the brake pedal and depress the accelerator pedal gradually, andwhen the vehicle starts to move, release the parking brake and depress the accelerator pedal to start off.
Downhill 1) Depress the brake pedal and shift thegearshift lever to the “M” position. Check the gear position indicator to make sure that the gear is in 1st.2) Release the brake pedal and depress the accelerator pedal slowly. Even though the accelerator pedal is notdepressed, the clutch will be engaged when the vehicle speed increases.
Backing up After the vehicle has stopped completely, depress the brake pedal and shift the gear-shift lever to the “R” position. Depress the accelerator pedal slowly as when starting off in 1st gear. Before backing up, makesure that reverse gear is selected by checking the gear position indicator.
76MH0A062
NOTE: • If reverse gear cannot be engaged even though the gearshift lever has been shifted from the “N” to the “R” position,the system will re-try shifting automati- cally. This will take some time, noise may be heard from the gears, and shift-ing gear shock may occur. However, they do not indicate a malfunction. • The “N” indicator will flash, the depressbrake pedal indicator will come on and a warning buzzer (long pulse sound) will sound if any of the following casesoccur; – If you shift the gearshift lever from the “N” to the “R” position without depress-ing the brake pedal – If the system is unable to re-try shifting You should depress the brake pedal andshift the gearshift lever to “N” position,
then shift to “R” position again a few sec- onds later. • 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 (2mph), 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 gearposition. 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.
NOTICE
On an uphill slope, never hold thevehicle at a stop using only the accel-erator pedal or creeping function. If you perform this operation for a cer- tain period of time, a warning buzzerwill sound, and in some cases the engine will stall. This can also cause excessive damage to the clutch.
NOTICE
On a downhill slope, never hold thevehicle at a stop using only the accel- erator pedal or the creeping function. If you perform this operation for acertain period of time, a warning buzzer will sound, and in some cases the engine will stall. This can alsocause excessive damage to the clutch.

Notes on Discs
Precautions When the inside of the vehicle is very cold and the player is used soon afterswitching on the heater, condensation may form on the disc or the optical parts of the player and proper playback maynot be possible. If condensation forms
on the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If condensation forms on the optical parts of the player, do not use the player forabout one hour. This will allow the con- densation to disappear normally. Driving on extremely bumpy roads whichcause severe vibrations may cause sound to skip. This unit uses a precision mechanism.Even in the event that trouble arises, never open the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.Please bring the unit to an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
Cautions on Handling
This unit has been designed specifically for playback of compact discs bearing mark (A) shown above. No other discs can be played.

Notes on MP3/WMA/AACWhat is MP3? MP3 (MPEG audio layer3) is an audio compression format that has become the standard format among PC users. Itsmerit is that the original audio data is compressed to approximately 1/10 and high sound quality is maintained. Thismeans that it is possible to store the data of approximately 10 music CDs on a sin- gle CD-R/RW disc, which in turn makesit possible to play music for a long time without having to change the disc.
What is WMA? An abbreviation of “Windows Media Audio,” WMA is an audio compressionformat developed by Microsoft. WMA files for which the DRM (Digital Rights Management) function is ON can-not be played. Windows MediaTM and the Windows®
logo are trademarks or registered trade- marks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries.
What is AAC? An abbreviation of “Advanced Audio Coding,” AAC is an audio compressionformat used by MPEG2 and MPEG4.

Points to remember when making MP3/ WMA/AAC files Common High bit rate and high sampling fre- quency are recommended for high qual- ity sounds. Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended. Selecting VBR may cause display of in correct playing time and jumpiness of playback. Playback sound quality varies depending on the encoding environment. Fordetails, refer to the user manual of the encoding software and the writing soft- ware in use.
Recording MP3/WMA/ AAC files on a CD media It is recommended not to write both CD- DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC files on adisc. If both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC files are on the same disc, tracks maynot be played in the correct order or some tracks may not be played at all.
When storing both MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc, sort and place them in different folders. Do not write files other than MP3/WMA/ AAC files and unnecessary folders on a disc. MP3/WMA/AAC files should be named to meet the standards and the file sys- tem specifications as shown below. The file extension “.mp3”, “.wma” or “.m4a” should be assigned to files based on their format independently. You may encounter a trouble in playing MP3/WMA/AAC files or displaying infor- mation of MP3/WMA/AAC files depend-ing on the writing software or CD recorder in use. This unit does not have a play list func-tion. It is recommended to write discs in Disc- at-Once mode even though Multi-ses-sion mode is supported.
