BEFORE DRIVING
Vehicle/trailer loading
The weight of your loaded trailer (gross trailer weight) should never exceed the towing capacity.
Distribute cargo in your trailer so that the nose weight is about 10% of gross trailer weight, but does not exceed "Maximum vertical load" of 75 kg (165 lbs), and does not fall below 25 kg (55 lbs) or 4%, which­ever is heavier, on trailer hitch point. You should measure gross trailer weight and nose weight before towing to check that your load is properly distributed.
A WARNING
Improper weight distribution of your trailer may result in poor vehicle han­dling and swaying of the trailer. Always check that the trailer nose weight is about 10% of gross trailer weight, but does not exceed 11Maxi­mum vertical load" of75 kg (165 lbs), and does not fall below 25 kg (55 lbs) or 4%, whichever is heavier, on trailer hitch point. Also check that the cargo is properly secured. Failure to observe this requirement may result in an accident.
2-75
A WARNING
Never overload cargo on your trailer and your vehicle. Gross trailer weight must never exceed towing capacity. Gross vehicle weight (sum of the weights of the vehicle, all the occupants, accesso­ries including tow bars and a trailer hitch, cargo and trailer nose weight) must never exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) listed in "SPECIFICA­TIONS" section, except as described in NOTE below. • It is dangerous and may be illegal to transport people in a trailer.
NOTE: Only in the case of towing a trailer, GVW can be exceeded by not more than 40 kg (88 lbs), if road traffic legislation allows it.
Connect trailer lights and hook safety chains every time you tow.
NOTICE
Because towing a trailer puts addi­tional stress on your vehicle, more frequent maintenance will be required than under normal driving conditions. Follow the schedule in "Maintenance recommended under severe driving conditions". The additional load will affect fuel consumption, durability and perfor­mance of the vehicle as well.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Daily inspection checklist
Before driving
60A187
1) Check that windows, mirrors, lights and reflectors are clean and unobstructed. 2) Visually check the tyres for the follow-ing points: -the depth of the tread groove -abnormal wear, cracks and damage -loose wheel nuts -existence of foreign material such as nails, stones, etc.
Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE" section for details. 3) Look for fluid and oil leakage.
3-1
NOTE: It is normal for water to drip from the air conditioning system while and after use.
4) Check that the hood is fully closed and latched. 5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights and horn for proper opera­tion. 6) Adjust the seat and head restraint. 7) Check the brake pedal and the parking brake lever. 8) Adjust the mirrors. 9) Check that you and all passengers have properly fastened by the seat belts. 1 0)Check that all warning lights come on as the ignition switch is turned to "ON" position. 11 )Check all gauges. 12)Check that the brake system warning light turns off when the parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel tank, perform the following under-hood checks:
1) Engine oil level 2) Coolant level 3) Brake fluid level 4) Battery fluid (acid) level 5) Windshield washer fluid level
6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. Check that you cannot open . the hood further without releasing the secondary latch. Close the hood securely after checking for proper latch operation. See the item "All latches, hinges and locks" of "Chassis, body and others" in "Maintenance schedule" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTE­NANCE" section for lubrication sched­ule.
A WARNING
Check that the hood is fully closed and latched before driving. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly during driving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.
Once a month, or each time you fill your fuel tank, check the tyre pressure using a tyre pressure gauge. Also check the tyre pressure of the spare tyre.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Parking brake lever
(1) To set (2) To release (3) To release
The parking brake lever is located between the front seats. To set the parking brake, depress the brake pedal and pull the park­ing brake lever all the way up. To release the parking brake, depress the brake pedal and pull up slightly on the parking brake lever, push the button on the end of the lever with your thumb, and lower the lever to its original position.

For automatic transmission vehicles, always set the parking brake before mov­ing the gearshift lever to "P" (PARK) posi­tion. If you park on an incline and shift into "P" before setting the parking brake, the weight of the vehicle may make it difficult to shift out of "P" when you are ready to drive the vehicle.
When preparing to drive the vehicle, move the gearshift lever out of "P" position before releasing the parking brake.
A WARNING
• Whenever parking, make sure the gearshift lever for manual trans­mission vehicles is in 1st gear or "R" (Reverse) and the gearshift lever for automatic transmission or automatic transmission vehicles is in 11P" {Park). Remember, even though the transmission is in gear or in Park, you must set the parking brake fully. • When parking on an uphill, turn the steering wheel so that the front wheels point to the center of the
road. • When parking on a downhill, turn the steering wheel so that the front wheels point to the curb. • Never drive your vehicle with the parking brake on: rear brake effec­tiveness can be reduced from overM heating, brake life may be shortened, or permanent brake damage may result. • If the parking brake does not hold the vehicle securely or does not fully release, have your vehicle inspected immediately by a SUZUKI dealer.
