Emergency repair
1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “R” (Reverse).
Turn on the hazard warning flasher if
your vehicle is near traffic.
Block the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the wheel being
repaired.
2) Take out the sealant bottle and the
compressor.
3) At the top of the compressor, remove
the cap that covers the socket for the
sealant bottle, and then screw the bot-
tle into the socket.
4) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire
valve.
5) Connect the air hose of the air com-
pressor to the tire valve.

If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessaryseal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the screw of the filler hose.
7) Affix the speed restriction label from the
air compressor in the driver’s field of
view.
8) Make a short drive immediately after
inflating the tire to the required air pres-
sure. Drive carefully with a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
9) Carry on driving carefully to the nearest
SUZUKI dealer or a tire repair shop.
10)After 10 km (6 mile) running, check the
tire pressure with the pressure gauge of
the compressor. If the air pressure indi-
cates more than 220 kPa (2.2 bar), the
emergency repair is completed. But, if
the air pressure indicates less than the
required air pressure, correct the tire
pressure to the required air pressure. If
the tire pressure has dropped below
130 kPa (1.3 bar), the flat tire repair kit
cannot provide the necessary seal. Do

Check the tire pressure and confirm
the completion of the emergency
repair after 10 km (6 mile) of running.
NOTICE
Have the tire renewed at the nearest
SUZUKI dealer. When reusing the
sealed tire, consult a tire repair shop.
The wheel can be reused after wiping
sealant off completely with cloth in
order to prevent rust, but the tire
valve and tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) sensor must be
renewed.
Dispose of the sealant bottle at a
SUZUKI dealer or in accordance with
your regional codes and practices.

it with a new bottle from your SUZUKI
dealer.

vehicle if the battery appears to be
frozen. Batteries in this condition
may explode.
• When making jump lead connec-
tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Batteries produce flammable
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working near the battery.
• If the booster battery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your battery discharges repeat-
edly, for no apparent reason, have
your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
