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.

Electronic stability program (ESP
®) (if equipped)
ESP
® is a registered trademark of Daimler
AG.
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®)
helps to control the vehicle during corner-
ing 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 selectively
applying the brakes. In addition, ESP®
helps to avoid skidding by controlling brak-
ing pressure. The ESP
® has the following three sys-
tems:
Stability control systemThe 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 pre-
vent the vehicle from skidding when cor-
nering on a slippery road surface or when
turning the steering wheel abruptly.Traction control systemThe traction control system automatically
helps prevent the spinning of wheels when
the vehicle is started or accelerated on
slippery road surfaces. The system oper-
ates 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 limit wheel spin.
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 automati-
cally, so you do not have to use any spe-
cial braking technique. Just push the brake
pedal down wit hout 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 “Brak-
ing” in this section.)
NOTE:
The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is
under about 9 km/h (6 mph).
WA R N I N G
The ESP
® cannot enhance the vehi-
cle’s driving stability in all situations
and does not control your vehicle’s
entire braking system. The ESP
® can-
not prevent accidents, including
those resulting from excessive speed
in turns, or hydroplaning. Only safe
and attentive drive can prevent acci-
dents. The capabilities of an ESP
®-
equipped vehicle must never be used
as a substitute for careful driving.
WA R N I N G
• The ESP
® may not work properly if
tires or wheels other than those
specified in the owner’s manual are
used. When replacing tires or
wheels, use only the size and type
specified in this owner’s manual.
• The ESP® may not work properly if
tires are not inflated to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure.
• The ESP® may not work properly if
tires are fitted wi th tire chains.

How grip control system works
When the grip control switch is on and one
side of the tires is slipping, the grip control
system assists you in smooth starting by
controlling the driving force and brake
force of all wheels.
• When the ESP
® system is off, the grip
control system cannot be activated.
NOTE:
While the grip control system is working,
the ESP
® warning light blinks.
Hill hold control sys tem (if equipped)The hill hold control system is designed to
assist you in starting to move up hills.
When you start to move up a hill, the sys-
tem helps to prevent the vehicle from roll-
ing downward (for approximately 2
seconds) while you move your foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill hold control system activates for a
maximum of about 2 seconds if your foot is
moved from the brake pedal when the fol-
lowing conditions are all met.
1) The gearshift lever is in a forward gear or reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.
3) For manual transaxle models, the clutch pedal is depressed.
4) The vehicle is o n an upward incline.
CAUTION
To activate the grip control system,
push the grip control switch and
check that the indicator on the switch
turns on.
WA R N I N G
• Do not rely excessively on the hill
hold control system. The hill hold
control system may not prevent the
vehicle from rolling downward on a
hill under all load or road condi-
tions. Always be prepared to
depress the brake pedal to prevent
the vehicle from rolling downward.
Failure to pay attention and
depress the brake pedal to hold the
vehicle on a hill when necessary,
may result in loss of control or an
accident.
• The hill hold control system is not designed to stop the vehicle on a
hill. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• After you release your foot from the
brake pedal, accelerate the vehicle
to move up immediately. If you
release your foot from the brake
pedal over 2 seconds, the hill hold
control system will be canceled. If
so, the vehicle may roll downward,
which can result in an accident
depending on the degree of slope.
And, the engine may stall and the
power assist for the steering and
brakes will not work so steering
and braking will be much harder
than usual which can result in an
accident or vehicle damage.

The low tire pressure warning light can
come on due to normal causes such as
natural air leakage and pressure changes
caused by changes in temperature or
atmospheric pressure. Adjusting the air
pressure in the tires to the pressure shown
on the tire information placard should
cause the low tire pressure warning light to
turn off.
To make the low tire pressure warning light
go off, adjust the tire pressures when the
tires are cold, and drive the vehicle for
about 10 minutes.
When the adjusted tire pressure is recog-
nized, the low tire pressure warning light
will go off and the information display
shows the current tire pressure (if you
select the TPMS monitor).If the light turns on again shortly after
adjusting the pressure in your tires, you
may have a flat tire. If you have a flat tire,
replace it with the spare tire (if equipped).
Refer to “Jacking instructions” in the
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section. Refer
to “Replacing tires and/or wheels” for
instructions on how to restore normal oper-
ation of the tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem after you have
had a flat tire.
WA R N I N G
Continuing to drive with the low tire
pressure warning light on can lead to
an accident, resulting in severe injury
or death.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on and stays on, reduce your
speed and avoid abrupt steering and
braking. Be aware that driving on a
significantly unde r-inflated tire can
cause the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure, and may affect
steering control and brake effective-
ness. Stop in a safe place as soon as
possible and check your tires.
• If you have a flat tire, replace it with the spare tire (if e quipped). Refer to
“Jacking instructions” in the
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section
for tire replacement. Also refer to
“Replacing tires and/or wheels” for
instructions on how to restore nor-
mal operation of the TPMS after
you have had a flat tire. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• If your vehicle is equipped with a
flat tire repair kit instead of a spare
tire, refer to “Flat tire repair kit” in
the “EMERGENCY SERVICE” sec-
tion for instructions on how to per-
form an emergency repair of a flat
tire.
• If one or more of your tires is under-inflated, adjust the inflation
pressure in all of your tires to the
recommended inflation pressure as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
If the low tire pressure warning light
does not go off even when you drive
for more than 10 minutes after adjust-
ing the cold tire pressure, there may
be a problem with the TPMS. Have
your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.

DRIVING TIPS
75RM4-01E
CVT
75RM296
• When climbing steep hills, the vehiclemay begin to slow down and show a lack
of power. If this happens, you should
shift to a lower gear so that the engine
will again be operating in its normal
power range. Shift rapidly to prevent the
vehicle from losing momentum.
• When driving down a hill, the engine
should be used for braking by shifting to
the next lower gear.
Driving on slippery roads
60G089S
On wet roads, you shou ld drive at a lower
speed than you do on dry roads due to
possible slippage of tires during braking.
When driving on icy, snow-covered or
muddy roads, reduce your speed and
avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt braking,
or sharp steering movements.
4WD models
Your 4WD is designed to get better traction
on slippery roads than 2-wheel drive mod-
els. However, your 4WD will not have as
much traction in deep snow, mud or sand
as multipurpose 4WD vehicles. You should
not attempt to drive your 4WD in deep
snow, mud or sand. 4WD models are not
sport/utility vehicles, and are not designed
for off-road use.
WA R N I N G
Do not hold the brake pedal down too
long or too often while going down a
steep or long hill. This could cause
the brakes to overheat, resulting in
reduced braking efficiency. Failure to
take this precaution could result in
loss of vehicle control.
NOTICE
When descending a downhill, Never
turn the ignition key to “LOCK” posi-
tion or press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to LOCK
(OFF). Emission control system and
CVT (if equipped) damage may result.

mate control system cannot lower the inside
temperature below outside temperature.
To turn the climate control system off, push
“OFF” switch (7).
NOTE:
If “AUTO” on the display blinks, there is a
problem in the heating system and/or air
conditioning system. Yo u should have the
system inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
• To find the temperature at which you are
most comfortable, start with the 22°C
(72°F) or 25°C (75°F) setting. (the tem-
perature vary depending on vehicle
specifications.).
• If you push the temperature selector (1) until “HI” or “LO” appears on the display,
the climate control system will operate at
maximum heating or cooling and the
blower will run at full speed.
• To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather or hot air in hot weather, the system will
delay turning on the blower until warmed
or chilled air is available.
• If your vehicle has been left in the sun with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly.
• Even under the automat ic operation, you
can set individual selectors to the manual mode. The manually selected functions
are maintained, and the other functions
remain under automatic operation.
• If the windshield and/or the front door windows are fogged, push the defrost
switch (5) to turn on the defroster, or
push the air flow selector (4) to change
the air flow to HEAT & DEFROST posi-
tion to defog the windows.
• To return the blower speed selector (2), air intake selector (3 ), and air flow selec-
tor (4) to automatic operation, push
“AUTO” switch (8).

Be careful not to cover the interior tem-
perature sensor (10) located between the
steering wheel and the climate control
panel, or the solar sensor (11) located at
the top of the driver’s side dashboard.
These sensors are used by the automatic
system to regula te temperature.
Manual operationYou can manually control the climate con-
trol system. Set the selectors to the
desired positions.
