Low engine coolant temperature light (blue color)
54G344
When the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON, this light
comes on and stays on if the engine is
cold, and goes off after the engine warms
up.
If this light still stays on after the engine
warms up, there is a problem with the sys-
tem.
Have your vehicle inspected by your
SUZUKI dealer.
Oil change request light(if equipped)
79JM007
Your vehicle has the oil life monitoring sys-
tem and related oil change request light
that alerts you to change the engine oil and
oil filter.
When this light comes on or blinks, change
engine oil and oil filter immediately.
For details on how to change the engine oil
and oil filter, refer to “Changing engine oil
and filter” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section.
This light comes on for several seconds
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON so you
can check that light is working.
If either of odometer reading or time is
reached to the value which is set by the
system, this light comes on when the igni-
tion switch or engine switch is in ON posi-
tion. In addition, the message is shown on
the information display to tell you it is nec-
essary to change the engine oil and oil fil-ter. When the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, and the oil life monitoring system
is reset, this light will go out.
Whenever the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, the light must be reset to monitor
the next oil change timing properly. The
light will go out after the reset. For the
resetting procedure, r
efer to “Information
display” in this section.
NOTE:
This light is used to facilitate the oil and oil
filter change according to the maintenance
schedule.
NOTICE
Severe engine damage will result, if
you keep operating the engine after
this light comes on.
Change the engine oil and oil filter
immediately when the light blinks.

ard when you park your vehicle in case of
emergency.
Windshield wiper and washer lever
65D611
Wiper and washer operationWhen the ignition switch is in “ON” position
or the ignition mode is ON, you can use
the wiper/washer lever or switch (if
equipped).
When the wipers are under heavy load
such as covered by snow, the breaker will
be activated and the wipers will stop oper-
ating to protect the wiper motor from over-
heating.
If the wiper stops during operation, do the
following methods.
1) Stop the vehicle in a safe place, andturn the engine off.
2) Move the wiper lever and switch to “OFF” position.
3) Remove obstacles such as snow on the wipers.
4) After a while, when the temperature of
the wiper motor becomes low enough,
the breaker will be reset automatically
and the wipers will be able to use.
If you cannot use the wipers after a while,
there may be another problem. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the wipers
inspected.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
Be careful of the following when operat-
ing with the cruise control
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the
dual camera brake support, it cannot auto-
matically adjust to the speed of the vehicle
in front of you. Turn off the cruise control
system if you cannot operate safely at a
cruising speed.
Even in the following conditions, the set
indicator (5) will not go off and the cruising
speed will not be canceled.
• When the frontal collision warning isworking. If you depress the brake pedal,
the cruise speed will be canceled tempo-
rarily.
• When the stereo camera detects dirt on
the windshield and the dual camera
brake support stops functioning. For
safety purposes, push the cruise switch
(1) to turn off the cru ise indicator (4).
If the automatic brake system is working,
the cruise indicator (4) will turn off and the
cruise control system will be canceled.
Once you have determined that the condi-
tions are once again safe, reset the cruise
speed.
Changing speed temporarilyWhen the cruising speed is maintained,
you can temporarily accelerate or deceler-
ate.
To accelerate, depre ss the accelerator
pedal. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle will return to the set
speed.
To decelerate, depress the brake pedal.
The set speed will be canceled and the set
indicator (5) or “SET” indicator light (7) will
go off.
To resume the previously set speed, push
up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3) and turn
on the set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator
light (7) again when vehicle speed is
above 45 km/h (28 mph). The vehicle will
accelerate to and maintain the previously
set speed.
NOTE:
For CVT with manual mode or Auto Gear
Shift vehicle, when the cruising speed is
maintained, you cannot decelerate by
using the engine brake even if you down-
shift from higher gear to 3rd in the manual
mode.
To decelerate while the cruise control is
on, depress the brake pedal or push down
the “RES +/SET –” switch (3).
Changing cruising speedUsing the accelerator pedal
To reset at a faster cruising speed, accel-
erate to the desired speed using the accel-
erator pedal and push down the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3). The new speed will be
maintained.
Using the brake pedal
To reset at a slower cruising speed, decel-
erate to the desired speed using the brake
pedal and push down the “RES +/SET –”
switch (3). The new speed will be main-
tained.
NOTE:
When the brake pedal is depressed, the
set indicator (5) or “ SET” indicator light (7)
goes off until the cruising speed is reset.
Using “RES +/ SET –” switch
To reset at a faster cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold push up the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3). Vehicle speed will
steadily increase. When you release the
switch, the new speed will be maintained.
To reset at a slower cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold push down the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3) until the vehicle has
slowed to the desired speed, and then
release the switch. The new speed will be
maintained.

NOTE:
You can adjust the set speed by approxi-
mately 1.5 km/h (0.9 mph) by pushing
“RES +/SET –” switch quickly.Canceling cruise controlThe set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator light
(7) will go off and the cruise control will be
canceled temporarily with the following
conditions:
• Push “CANCEL” switch (2).
• Depress the brake pedal.
• For manual transaxle, depress the clutch pedal.
• For CVT, downshift from 3rd to 2nd in the manual mode (if equipped).
• For Auto Gear Shift, downshift from 3rd to
2nd in the manual mode.
• The vehicle speed falls more than about 20 percent from the set speed.
• Any time the vehicle speed falls below 40 km/h (25 mph).
• When the vehicle skids and ESP
® (if
equipped) is activated.
To resume the previously set speed, push
up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3) and turn
on the set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator
light (7). The vehicle speed must be above
45 km/h (28 mph) when the vehicle is not
under the above conditions. To turn off the cruise control system, push
cruise switch (1) and check that the cruise
indicator (4) or cruise indicator light (6) is
off.
Also, if the malfunction indicator light in the
instrument cluster comes on or blinks, the
cruise control system will be turned off.
NOTE:
If you turn off the cruise control system, the
previously set speed in the memory is
cleared. Reset your cruising speed again.

(1) ABS warning light
(2) Brake system warning light
How ABS worksA computer continuously monitors wheel
speed. The computer compares the
changes in wheel speed when braking. If
the wheels slow suddenly, indicating a
skidding situation, the computer will
change braking pressure several times
each second to prevent the wheels from
locking. When you start your vehicle or
when you accelerate after a hard stop, you
may hear a momentary motor or clicking
noise as the system resets or checks itself.

WA R N I N G
• If the ABS warning light (1) on theinstrument cluster comes on and
stays on while driving, there may
be a problem with the ABS system.
Ask your SUZUKI dealer to inspect
the ABS system immediately. If the
ABS system becomes inoperative,
the brake system will function as
an ordinary brake system that has
no ABS.
• If the ABS warning light (1) and the
brake system warning light (2) on
the instrument cluster simultane-
ously stay on or come on while
driving, both anti-lock function and
rear brake force control function
(proportioning valve function) of
the ABS system may have failed. If
so, the rear wheels may easily skid
or the vehicle can even spin in the
worst case when braking on a slip-
pery road or when hard braking
even on a dry paved road. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to inspect the ABS
system immediately. Drive care-
fully, avoiding hard braking as
much as possible.
WA R N I N G
The ABS may not work properly if
tires or wheels other than those
specified in the owner’s manual are
used. This is because the ABS works
by comparing changes in wheel
speed. When replacing tires or
wheels, use only the size and type
specified in this owner’s manual.
