DRIVING TIPS
52D078
A WARNING
Fasten your seat belts at all times. Even though airbags are equipped at the front seating positions, the driver and all passengers should be properly restrained at all times, using the seat belts provided. Refer to "Seat belts and child restraint systems" section for instructions on proper use of the seat belts. Never drive under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Alcohol and drugs can seriously impair your ability to drive safely, greatly increasing the risk of injury to yourself and others. You should also avoid driving when you are tyred, sick, irritated or under stress.

Features to Know
A WARNING
Your multipurpose vehicle has han­dling characteristics that differ from those of a conventional passenger car. For the safety of you and your passengers, please read the follow­ing section very carefully.
Multipurpose vehicles such as your new SUZUKI have higher ground clearance and a narrower track than conventional passenger cars, to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design characteris­tics give them a higher center of gravity than ordinary cars. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better view of the road allowing you to anticipate prob­lems. They are not designed for cornering at the same speed as conventional pas­senger cars any more than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satis­factorily under off-road conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor­rectly may result in loss of control or vehi­cle rollover. Multipurpose vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles. In a rollover collision, an
unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.
Important Differences Between
Your Multipurpose Vehicle and
Ordinary Passenger Cars
Higher Ground Clearance The higher ground clearance of your vehi­cle enables it to clear off-road obstacles, such as rocks and tree stumps, that ordi­nary passenger cars cannot drive over. An unavoidable result of this higher ground clearance is that the vehicle also has a higher center of gravity. Consequently, your vehicle will handle differently than a vehicle with a lower center of gravity.
Shorter Wheelbase Along with its higher ground clearance, your vehicle has a shorter wheelbase and shorter front and rear overhangs than the typical passenger car. These features combine to allow you to drive your vehicle over hillcrests without hanging up on them or damaging the frame and chassis com­ponents. The shorter wheelbase also makes the steering of your vehicle more responsive than that of vehicles with lon­ger wheelbases.
