A WARNING
The detection performance of the dual sensor has limits and the dual sensor cannot detect all vehicles, pedestrian, object of the high beam assist (such as the lights of the vehi­cle in front of you, street lamps, etc.), partition lines or traffic sign. Do not rely excessively on the system and always drive in a safe manner. • Observe the following instructions in order to keep the dual sensor functioning properly. If mishandled, the dual sensor cannot accurately detect a vehicle, a pedestrian, an object of the high beam assist (such as the lights of the vehicle in front of you, street lamps, etc.) or partition lines in front of you, the system will not function properly and unexpected accidents may occur. -Do not touch the lens of the dual sensor. -Do not clean the lens of the dual sensor by yourself. -Do not strike the body of, or any surrounding parts of the dual sensor. (Continued)

A WARNING
(Continued) -Do not remove or disassemble the dual sensor. -Do not stick or affix anything to the lens of the dual sensor, not even clear items. • When the windshield around the dual sensor is deformed or dam­aged, or the windshield in front of the dual sensor is cracked because of an accident, the dual sensor can­not detect an obstacle in front of you, a pedestrian, an object of the high beam assist (such as the lights of the vehicle in front of you, street lamps, etc.), partition lines or traffic signs properly. If driving with these damaged parts, the dual sen­sor brake support will not function properly and unexpected accidents may occur. Operate the dual sensor brake support OFF switch to turn off the dual sensor brake support, and ask a SUZUKI dealer to have them inspected. (Continued)
A WARNING
(Continued) Do not apply any accessories (other than SUZUKI genuine acces­sories), films or stickers to the area listed below. These may affect with visibility of the dual sensor. If the area of the dual sensor is obstructed, the dual sensor cannot detect any vehicles, pedestrians, objects of the high beam assist (such as the lights of the vehicle in front of you, street lamps, etc.), partition lines or traffic signs prop­erly and the dual sensor brake sup­port may not function properly. Also, if applying them to an area other than the prohibited area, it may affect with the function of the dual sensor by reflection of light or an image. In this case, move them to another place. -On windshield

A WARNING
Do not remove or disassemble laser sensor parts of dual sensor. Do not look into irradiation portion of dual sensor by using the optical instrument such as magnifying glass, the objective glass, etc at distance within 10 cm (3.9 inch) from dual sensor when the ignition switch is turned to "ON". Your eyes might be damaged by laser.

NOTE: When the function of the dual sensor is temporarily stopped or malfunctioning, all of following functions will be turned off. Dual sensor brake support Lane departure warning Vehicle swaying warning High beam assist Traffic sign recognition
Temporary stop of the dual sensor Under the following situations, the function of the dual sensor stops temporarily. When the situations are improved, the temporary stop of the function will be can­celed. When the visibility of the dual sensor is poor Refer to "Situations where the dual sen­sor may not activate properly" in this section for details. When the temperature of the body of dual sensor is high When the systems related to the dual sensor brake support are stopped tem­porarily When the battery has a voltage abnor­mality
Failure of the dual sensor When the dual sensor is faulty, the function of the dual sensor is stopped until the igni­tion switch is turned to "LOCK". Find a safe place to park and turn the igni­tion switch to "LOCK". Restart the engine, and check that the dual sensor brake support indicator light, lane departure warning indicator light, and high beam assist warning light go off. If all of the indicators stay on after restarting the engine, there may be a failure of the dual sensor. Ask a SUZUKI dealer to have the dual sensor inspected.
NOTE: Under the following situations, the dual sensor brake support indicator light, lane departure warning indicator light, and high beam assist warning light come on after the engine has been started, it does not indicate a malfunction. Once the ignition switch to is turned to "LOCK" position and then the engine is restarted, these indicators will go off. -When the automatic brake system has been operating 3 times -When the automatic brake system has been operating for long periods
