Speedometer
The speedometer indicates vehicle speed.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute.
Fuel gauge
61MM0A154
When the ignition switch is in “ON” position
or the ignition mode is “ON”, this gauge
gives an approximate indication of the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank. “F” stands
for full and “E” stands for empty.
If the indicator approaches a low level
(near “E”) on fuel gauge, refill the tank as
soon as possible.
NOTE:
The indicator moves a little depending on
road conditions (for example, slope or
curve) and driving conditions because of
fuel moving in the tank.
If the low fuel warning light (1) comes on,
fill the fuel tank immediately.Refer to “Low fuel warning light” in “Warn-
ing and indicator lights” in this section for
details.
The mark (2) indicates that the fuel filler
door is located on the left side of the vehi-
cle.
NOTICE
Never drive the vehicle with the
engine revving in the red zone or
severe engine damage can result.
Keep the engine speed below the red
zone even when downshifting to a
lower gear position.
Refer to “Downshifting maximum
allowable speeds” in “OPERATING
YOUR VEHICLE” section.(2)

DRIVING TIPS
54P00-01E
Stuck vehicle
If your vehicle gets stuck in snow, mud or
sand, follow the directions below:
1) Shift the transaxle back and forth
between a forward range (or first gear
for manual transaxle) and reverse. This
will create a rocking motion which may
give you enough momentum to free the
vehicle. Press gently on the accelerator
to keep wheel spinning to a minimum
wheel rpm. Remove your foot from the
accelerator while shifting.
Do not race the engine. Excessive
wheel spin will cause the tires to dig
deeper, making it more difficult to free
the vehicle.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the ESP
®,
you may have to turn the ESP® system off
in order to spin the wheels.
2) If your vehicle remains stuck after a few
minutes of rocking, we recommend you
to consult your SUZUKI dealer or a
roadside assistance service. If a towing
service is not available in an emer-
gency, your vehicle may be temporarily
towed by a towing cable or chain
secured to the towing hook either on
the front of the vehicle or on the rear of
the vehicle. Refer to “Frame hooks” in
“OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIP-
MENT” section.
54G638S
WA R N I N G
Do not allow anyone to stand near
the vehicle when you are rocking it,
and do not spin the wheels faster
than an indicated 40 km/h (25 mph)
on the speedometer. Personal injury
and/or vehicle damage may result
from spinning the wheels too fast.
NOTICE
Do not continue rocking the vehicle
for more than a few minutes. Pro-
longed rocking can cause engine
overheating or transaxle damage.
WA R N I N G
In addition to following the driving
tips in this section, it is important to
observe the following precautions.
• Check that your tires are in good
condition and always maintain the
specified tire pressure. Refer to
“Tires” in “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section for
details.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
54P00-01E
54G136
(1) Tread wear indicator
(2) Indicator location mark
2) Check that the depth of the tread
groove is more than 1.6 mm (0.06 in.).
To help you check this, the tires have
molded-in tread wear indicators in the
grooves. When the indicators appear
on the tread surface, the remaining
depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
or less and the tire should be replaced.
3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and
damage. Any tires with cracks or other
damage should be replaced. If any tires
show abnormal wear, have them
inspected by your SUZUKI dealer.4) Check for loose wheel bolts.
5) Check that there are no nails, stones or
other objects sticking into the tires.
EXAMPLECAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rocks
can damage tires and affect wheel
alignment. Have tires and wheel
alignment checked periodically by
your SUZUKI dealer.
WA R N I N G
• Your SUZUKI vehicle is equipped
with tires which are all the same
type and size. This is important to
ensure proper steering and han-
dling of the vehicle. Never mix tires
of different size or type on the four
wheels of your vehicle. The size
and type of tires used should be
only those approved by SUZUKI as
standard or optional equipment for
your vehicle.
• Replacing the wheels and tires
equipped on your vehicle with cer-
tain combinations of aftermarket
wheels and tires can significantly
change the steering and handling
characteristics of your vehicle.
• Therefore, use only those wheel
and tire combinations approved by
SUZUKI as standard or optional
equipment for your vehicle.
NOTICE
Replacing the original tires with tires
of a different size may result in false
speedometer or odometer readings.
Check with your SUZUKI dealer
before purchasing replacement tires
that differ in size from the original
tires.
NOTICE
For 4WD models, replacing a tire with
one of a different size, or using differ-
ent brands among the four tires can
result in damage to the drive train.

EMERGENCY SERVICE
54P00-01E
Emergency repair
1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “R” (Reverse).
Turn on the hazard warning flasher if
your vehicle is near traffic.
Block the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the wheel being
repaired.
2) Take out the sealant bottle and the
compressor.
3) At the top of the compressor, remove
the cap that covers the socket for the
sealant bottle, and then screw the bot-
tle into the socket.
4) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire
valve.
5) Connect the air hose of the air com-
pressor to the tire valve.
6) Connect the power plug of the com-
pressor to the accessory socket. Start
the engine. Switch on the compressor.
Inflate the tire to the required air pres-
sure.

(2) Air hose
(3) Compressor
(4) Power plug
If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessaryseal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the screw of the filler hose.
7) Affix the speed restriction label from the
air compressor in the driver’s field of
view.
8) Make a short drive immediately after
inflating the tire to the required air pres-
sure. Drive carefully with a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
9) Carry on driving carefully to the nearest
SUZUKI dealer or a tire repair shop.
10)After 10 km (6 mile) running, check the
tire pressure with the pressure gauge of
the compressor. If the air pressure indi-
cates more than 220 kPa (2.2 bar), the
emergency repair is completed. But, if
the air pressure indicates less than the
required air pressure, correct the tire
pressure to the required air pressure. If
the tire pressure has dropped below
130 kPa (1.3 bar), the flat tire repair kit
cannot provide the necessary seal. Do
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.

Do not affix the speed restriction
label to the air bag. Also do not affix
it to the warning light indicator or to
the speedometer.
