NOTE: To prevent the alarm from being acci­dentaffy triggered, avoid arming it while anyone remains inside the vehicle. The alarm wiff be triggered if any person inside unlocks a door by operating the lock knob. The theft deterrent alarm system is not armed when af/ doors are locked using the key from outside, or using the door lock knobs. ff any door is not operated within approx­imately 30 seconds after the doors have been unlocked using the keyless entry system transmitter, the doors are auto­maticaf/y locked again. After the doors are locked, the theft deterrent alarm sys­tem wiff be armed in about 20 seconds if the system is in the enabled state.
How to disarm the theft deterrent alarm system Simply unlock the doors using the keyless entry system transmitter. The theft deter­rent light will go out, indicating that the theft deterrent alarm system is disarmed.
How to stop the alarm Should the alarm be triggered accidentally, unlock the doors using the keyless entry system transmitter or turn the ignition switch to "ON" position. The alarm will then stop.
NOTE: Even after the alarm has stopped, if you lock the doors using the keyless entry system transmitter, the theft deterrent alarm system wiff be rearmed with a delay of about 20 seconds. ff you disconnect the lead-acid battery while the theft deterrent alarm system is in the armed condition or the alarm is actuaf/y in operation, the alarm will be triggered or re-triggered when the bat­tery is then reconnected, although, in the falter case, the alarm remains stopped for the period between disconnection and reconnection of the lead-acid bat­tery: Even after the alarm has stopped at the end of the predetermined operation time, it wiff be triggered again if any door is opened without disarming the theft deterrent alarm system.

Brake system warning light
(CD)
82K170
Three different types of operations exist depending on the vehicle's specification.
• The light comes on briefiy when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". The light comes on when the parking brake is engaged with the ignition switch "ON". The light comes on under either or both of above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fiuid in the brake fiuid reservoir falls below the specified level.
The light should go out after starting the engine and fully releasing the parking brake, if the fluid level in the brake fiuid reservoir is adequate.
The light also comes on together with the ABS warning light when the rear brake force control function (proportioning valve function) of the ABS system fails. If the brake system warning light comes on while you are driving the vehicle, it may mean that there is something wrong with
2-41
the vehicle's brake system. If this happens:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
A WARNING
Remember that stopping distance may be longer, you may have to push harder on the pedal, and the pedal may go down farther than normal.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting and stopping the vehicle on the shoul­der of the road. 3) If you determine that it is safe, drive the vehicle cautiously at low speed to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs or tow the vehicle to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs.
A WARNING
If any of the following conditions occur, you should immediately ask a SUZUKI dealer to inspect the brake system. If the brake system warning light does not go out after the engine has been started and the parking brake has been fully released. If the brake system warning light does not come on when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". If the brake system warning light comes on at any time during vehi­cle operation.
NOTE: Because the brake system is self-adjust­ing, the fluid level will drop as the brake pads become worn. Replenishing the brake fluid reservoir is considered normal periodic maintenance.
NOTE: Parking brake reminder buzzer A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind you to release the parking brake if you start the vehicle without releasing the park­ing brake. Check that the parking brake is fully released and the brake system warn­ing light turns off.

Anti-lock brake system {ABS) warn­
ing light
(8)
65D529
When the ignition switch is turned "ON", this light comes on briefiy so you can check that the light is working. If the light stays on or comes on when driv­ing, there may be something wrong with the ABS.
If this happens: 1) Pull off the road and stop carefully. 2) Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" and then start the engine again.
If the warning light comes on briefiy and then turns off, the system is normal. If the warning light still stays on, something is wrong with the system.
If the light and the brake system warning light stay on or come on simultaneously when driving, your ABS system is equipped with the rear brake force control function (proportioning valve function) and there may be something wrong with both the rear brake force control function and the anti-lock function of the ABS system.
If one of the above occurs, have the sys­tem inspected by a SUZUKI dealer. If the ABS becomes inoperative, the brake system will function as an ordinary brake system that does not have this ABS sys­
tem.
For details of ABS system, refer to "Anti­lock brake system (ABS)" in "OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE" section.
