NOTE: If you pull down the "RES +/SET-" switch (3) when the vehicle speed is less than 30 km/h or 20 mph, the maximum speed will be set to 30 km/h or 20 mph.
Exceeding maximum speed
You can exceed the maximum speed tem­porarily by quickly depressing the acceler­ator pedal all the way down. While the vehicle speed is exceeded, the speed indi­cation (6) on the information display will fiash and the buzzer will sound briefiy. If the accelerator pedal is released to return below the maximum speed, the speed indication (6) will stop fiashing and then stay lit, and the function will restore.
NOTE: When you depress the accelerator pedal slowly, the vehicle speed may not exceed the maximum speed. If you wish to exceed the maximum speed, depress the accelerator pedal all the way down quickly or push "CANCEL" switch (2) to cancel the maximum speed temporarily. The speed indication (6) will also flash and the buzzer will sound if the speed limiter cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the maximum speed in such cases as when going down a steep hill, or under excessive acceleration. In this case, decelerate to return below the maximum speed using the brake pedal.
Changing speed setting
Setting to the current speed 1) Push "CANCEL" switch (2). 2) Accelerate or decelerate to the desired speed. 3) Pull down the "RES +/SET -" switch (3), "SET" indicator (5) appear in the information display. The current vehicle speed is set as the maximum speed.
Using "RES +/SET-" switch To change to a faster speed, press repeat­edly or hold pulling up the "RES +/SET -" switch (3).

SUZUKI SAFETY SUPPORT
(if equipped)
Dual sensor brake support
Dual sensor brake support is a system that detects a vehicle or a pedestrian in front of your vehicle by the dual sensor, attempts to avoid a collision by giving warning to the driver, and attempts to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
A WARNING
• Dual sensor brake support has lim­its and may not function properly depending on the driving condi­tions. Do not rely excessively on the system and always drive in a safe manner. For safety reasons, do not check the operation of the system by yourself. Check that all passengers fasten their seat belts when the vehicle is being operated. When the system is activated, there is a risk of serious injury from being thrown.
NOTE: While the system is working, if a vehicle in front of you moves outside the dual sensor's detection field or the vehicle can no longer be detected, the system may stop functioning. While the system is working, a braking sound may be heard even if you do not depress the brake pedal, but this is nor­mal. • As the function of the dual sensor brake support is different depending on some destinations or areas, there are type of vehicles with the function not to detect the pedestrians.

Frontal collision warning When there is a risk of a frontal collision, a warning will be given through the information display and sound.

Also, the indication on the information display and the dual sensor brake support indicator light will go off 3 seconds after the automatic brake system is released.
A CAUTION
After the vehicle has been stopped by the automatic brake system, immediately depress the brake pedal. If your vehicle is equipped with the automatic transmis­sion, and when the automatic brake system is released, the vehicle will start to move by the creeping function. This may result in an accident.
NOTE: If you do not depress the clutch pedal when the vehicle has been stopped by the auto­matic brake system, the engine will stall.
