Temporary stop of the dual sensor Under the following situations, the function of the dual sensor stops temporarily. When the situations are improved, the temporary stop of the function will be can­celed. When the visibility of the dual sensor is poor Refer to "Situations where the dual sen­sor may not activate properly" in this section for details. When the temperature of the body of dual sensor is high When the systems related to the dual sensor brake support are stopped tem­porarily When the battery has a voltage abnor­mality
Failure of the dual sensor When the dual sensor is faulty, the function of the dual sensor is stopped until the igni­tion switch is turned to "LOCK". Find a safe place to park and turn the igni­tion switch to "LOCK". Restart the engine, and check that the dual sensor brake support indicator light, lane departure warning indicator light, and high beam assist warning light go off. If all of the indicators stay on after restarting the engine, there may be a failure of the dual sensor. Ask a SUZUKI dealer to have the dual sensor inspected.
NOTE: Under the following situations, the dual sensor brake support indicator light, lane departure warning indicator light, and high beam assist warning light come on after the engine has been started, it does not indicate a malfunction. Once the ignition switch to is turned to "LOCK" position and then the engine is restarted, these indicators will go off. -When the automatic brake system has been operating 3 times -When the automatic brake system has been operating for long periods

Emergency stop signal (ESS) (if equipped)
ESS stands for Emergency Stop Signal.
ESS is a feature t_hat gives a warning to a following vehicle by fiashing all turn signal lights faster than usual 1f all the following conditions are met. Also, within these conditions, it will fiash along with your turn signal in the instrument cluster. • When you slam down on the brakes at speeds of approximately 55 km/h (34 mph) or over. • When the ABS is activated or when you suddenly brake similar to activating the ABS.
The ESS will stop functioning in the following situations: • When you release the brake When the ABS is no longer activated When you turn on the hazard warning switch When the car is no longer rapidly decelerating

A WARNING
Although the ESS is designed to reduce the number of rear-end colli­sions that occur from sudden brak­ing, by warning a following vehicle, it cannot prevent all collisions. Always make an effort to drive safely and avoid unnecessary sudden braking when stopping or decelerating.
NOTE: The ESS feature cannot be deactivated. • Use of the hazard warning switch should be given preference over the ESS. When driving on the following surfaces and the ABS gives out momentarily, the ESS may not function. -When driving on slippery surfaces -When driving over bumps on the road such as highway joint seams

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 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). ff the ABS 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 fluid 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.
A WARNING
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 vehicle with a conventional brake system. With a conventional brake system, skidding tyres are able to plow the gravel or snow layer, shortening the stopping distance. ABS minimizes this resistance effect. Allow for extra stopping dis­tance when driving on loose sur­faces. On regular paved roads, some driv­ers 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 judg­ment and do not drive too fast.
