(1) Symbol representing an obstacle detected by parking sensor*
* This symbol shows that an obstacle is located on the right rear of vehicle.
• The parking sensor system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles near the front
and/or rear bumpers. If obstacles are sensed while you are parking or moving the vehi-
cle slowly, the system warns you by sounding a buzzer and displaying symbols repre-
senting the obstacles on the information display in the instrument cluster.
• The system emits an ultrasonic wave and the relevant sensor detects the return of the
wave reflected by an obstacle. The system measures the time taken by the ultrasonic
wave to reach the obstacle and return from it, from which it determines the obstacle’s
position.

EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
• The parking sensor warns you of
obstacles with buzzers and by
showing you the location of the
obstacles on the information dis-
play. However, you still have to
drive with particular care.
• The sensors can detect obstacles
only within a limited area and only
when the vehicle is moving within a
limited speed range. So, in tricky
areas, you must move the vehicle
slowly while checking around it
using your direct vision or rearview
mirrors. There is increased risk of
an accident if you control the vehi-
cle relying only on the parking sen-
sor.

Upon detecting an obstacle, the parking sensor causes an interior buzzer to sound and a
symbol representing the obstacle appears on the information display in the instrument cluster.
• A different symbol is displayed depending on the direction and distance of the obstacle.
• A buzzer in the instrument panel sounds when a sensor at the front (if equipped)
detects an obstacle.
• A buzzer located behind the rear seat sounds when a sensor at the rear detects an
obstacle.
• Warnings when obstacles are detected by corner sensors
• Warnings when obstacles are detected by center sensors
NOTE:
• Symbols are displayed with a short delay after the detection of obstacles.
• If the system detects multiple obstacles simultaneously, the display shows all of their
positions using the corresponding symbols. However, the buzzers will sound only for
the nearest obstacles.Distance (approx.) Buzzer Symbol

Hill descent control system (if equipped)
The hill descent control system is designed
to reduce the driver’s workload when going
down steep, rough and/or slippery hills
where the vehicle cannot decelerate
enough by engine braking alone. The hill
descent control system helps to control
vehicle speed by automatically engaging
the vehicle’s brakes, as needed, so you
can concentrate on steering the vehicle.(1)
WA R N I N G
Do not rely excessively on the hill
descent control system. The hill
descent control system may not con-
trol the vehicle speed on a hill under
all load or road conditions. Always be
prepared to control vehicle speed by
applying the brakes. Failure to pay
attention and control vehicle speed
using the brakes when necessary
may result in loss of control or an
accident.

NOTE:
If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the hill
descent control system or the ESP
® sys-
tem. Have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
• The hill descent control indicator does
not come on or blink when you push the
hill descent control switch.
• The hill descent control indicator stays

If the message shown in the above illustra-
tion appears on the information display,
there may be a problem with the hill
descent control system and the hill hold
control system. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTE:
You cannot activate the hill descent control
system while this message is displayed.
Hill hold control system (if equipped)
The hill hold control system is designed to
assist you in starting to move up steep or
slippery hills. When you start to move up a
hill, the system helps to prevent the vehicle
from rolling downward (for approximately 2
seconds) while you move your foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill hold control system activates for a
maximum of about 2 seconds if your foot is
moved from the brake pedal when the fol-
lowing conditions are all met.
1) The gearshift lever is in a forward gear
or reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.
3) The clutch pedal is depressed.
4) The vehicle is on an upward incline.
NOTE:
You may hear a sound coming from the
engine when the hill hold control system is
activated. This sound is normal and does
not indicate a malfunction.
WA R N I N G
• Do not rely excessively on the hill
hold control system. The hill hold
control system may not prevent the
vehicle from rolling downward on a
hill under all load or road condi-
tions. Always be prepared to
depress the brake pedal to prevent
the vehicle from rolling downward.
Failure to pay attention and
depress the brake pedal to hold the
vehicle on a hill when necessary,
may result in loss of control or an
accident.
• The hill hold control system is not
designed to stop the vehicle on a
hill.
(Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• After you release your foot from the
brake pedal, accelerate the vehicle
to move up immediately. If you
release your foot from the brake
pedal over 2 seconds, the hill hold
control system will be canceled. If
so, the vehicle may roll downward,
which can result in an accident
depending on the degree of slope.
And, the engine may stall and the
power assist for the steering and
brakes will not work so steering
and braking will be much harder
than usual which can result in an
accident or vehicle damage.

Tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) (if equipped)
The tire pressure monitoring system is
designed to alert you when one or more of
the tires on your vehicle is significantly
under-inflated. The tire pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS) sensor containing a
unique identification code is mounted on
each wheel. The TPMS sensors transmit
tire pressure signals to the receiver of the
tire pressure monitoring system controller.
When the inflation pressure of one or more
tires indicates significant under-inflation,
the low tire pressure warning light shown
below comes on.
NOTE:
The word “telltale” in this section, means
an indicator.
Low tire pressure warning light
52D305
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) that illumi-
nates a low tire pressure telltale when one
or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure
telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
54P00-01E
The low tire pressure warning light can
come on due to normal causes such as
natural air leakage and pressure changes
caused by changes in temperature or
atmospheric pressure. Adjusting the air
pressure in the tires to the pressure shown
on the tire information placard should
cause the low tire pressure warning light to
turn off.
To make the low tire pressure warning light
go off, adjust the tire pressures when the
tires are cold, and drive the vehicle for
about 10 minutes.
When the adjusted tire pressure is recog-
nized, the low tire pressure warning light
will go off and the information display
shows the current tire pressure (if you
select the TPMS monitor).If the light turns on again shortly after
adjusting the pressure in your tires, you
may have a flat tire. If you have a flat tire,
replace it with the spare tire (if equipped).
Refer to “Jacking instructions” in “EMER-
GENCY SERVICE” section. Refer to
“Replacing tires and/or wheels” for instruc-
tions on how to restore normal operation of
the tire pressure monitoring system after
you have had a flat tire.
WA R N I N G
Continuing to drive with the low tire
pressure warning light on can lead to
an accident, resulting in severe injury
or death.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on and stays on, reduce your
speed and avoid abrupt steering and
braking. Be aware that driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire can
cause the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure, and may affect
steering control and brake effective-
ness. Stop in a safe place as soon as
possible and check your tires.
• If you have a flat tire, replace it with
the spare tire (if equipped). Refer to
“Jacking instructions” in “EMER-
GENCY SERVICE” section for tire
replacement. Also refer to “Replac-
ing tires and/or wheels” for instruc-
tions on how to restore normal
operation of the TPMS after you
have had a flat tire.

• If your vehicle is equipped with a
flat tire repair kit instead of a spare
tire, refer to “Flat tire repair kit” in
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section
for instructions on how to perform
an emergency repair of a flat tire.
• If one or more of your tires is
under-inflated, adjust the inflation
pressure in all of your tires to the
recommended inflation pressure as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
If the low tire pressure warning light
does not go off even when you drive
for more than 10 minutes after adjust-
ing the cold tire pressure, there may
be a problem with the TPMS. Have
your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.

NOTE:
• The information display shows the
above warning and indicator message
when this light comes on.
• When the tire inflation pressure is
adjusted in high altitude areas, the low
tire pressure light may not turn off even
after tire inflation pressure adjustment. In
this case, adjust the inflation pressure to
a slightly higher pressure than the one
shown on the tire information placard.
• The low tire pressure warning light may
turn off temporarily after coming on. This
could be due to increase of surface tem-
perature after long distance driving or
traveling to a high temperature area.
Even if the tire pressure warning light
turns off after coming on, check the infla-
tion pressure of all tires.
• To reduce the chance that the low tire
pressure warning light will come on due
to normal changes in temperature and
atmospheric pressure, it is important to
check and adjust the tire pressures
when the tires are cold. If you check tiresafter driving, they are warm. Even if the
tire pressure seems to be good in this
condition, it could fall below the specified
pressure when tires cool down. Also, if
tires are inflated to the specified pres-
sure in a warm garage, the tire pressure
could fall below the specified one when
you drive the vehicle outside in very cold
temperature. If you adjust the tire pres-
sure in a garage that is warmer than the
outside temperature, you should add
1 kPa to the recommended cold tire
inflation pressure for every 0.8°C differ-
ence between garage temperature and
outside temperature.
TPMS malfunction indicator
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for about 75 seconds
and then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal-
function exists.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is not
reset even after the engine is turned off; it
remains in the on state until the normal
conditions are restored.
When the malfunction indicator is illumi-
nated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction tell-
tale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
