Off-road drivingDo not drive in the field covered with grown grassIf you drive in the field covered with grass,
it may cause unexpected accident or vehi-
cle damage by getting caught in grown
grass.
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 the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section for
details. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• Do not use tires other than those
specified by SUZUKI. Never use dif-
ferent sizes or types of tires on the
front and rear wheels. For informa-
tion regarding the specified tires,
refer to the tire information label
located on the driver’s door lock
pillar.
• Never use oversized tires or spe- cial shock absorbers and springs
to raise (jack up) your vehicle. This
will change the handling character-
istics. Oversized tires may also rub
against the fender over bumps,
causing vehicle damage or tire fail-
ure.
• After driving through water, test the brakes while driving at a slow
speed to see if they have main-
tained their normal effectiveness. If
the brakes are less effective than
normal, dry them by repeatedly
applying the brakes while driving
slowly until the brakes have
regained their normal effective-
ness.

Safety information
Notes on discsPrecautions
• When the inside of the vehicle is verycold and the player is used soon after
switching on the heater, condensation
may form on the disc or the optical
parts of the player and proper playback
may not be possible. If condensation
forms on the disc, wipe it off with a soft
cloth. If condensation forms on the opti-
cal parts of the player, do not use the
player for about one hour. This will
allow the condensation to disappear
normally.
• Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause severe vibrations may
cause sound to skip.
• This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in the event that trouble arises,
never open the case, disassemble the
unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.
Bring the unit to an authorized SUZUKI
dealer. Cautions on handling

WA R N I N G
If you pay too much attention to
operating the audio system or view-
ing the audio system display while
driving, an accident can occur. If
you set the sound volume too loud,
it could prevent you from being
aware of road and tr affic conditions.
• Keep your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive. Avoid pay-
ing too much attention to operat-
ing the audio system or viewing
the audio system display.
• Familiarize yourself with the audio
system controls and operation of
the audio system before driving.
• Preset your favorite radio stations
before driving so that you can
quickly tune to them using the
presets.
• Set the sound volume to a level that will allow you to continue to
be aware of road and traffic condi-
tions while driving.

Notes on MP3/WMA/AACWhat is MP3?
• An abbreviation of “MPEG audio layer3”,
MP3 is an audio compression format
that has become the standard format
among PC users. Its merit is that the
original audio data is compressed to
approximately 1/10 and high sound qual-
ity is maintained. This means that it is
possible to store the data of approxi-
mately 10 music CDs on a single CD-R/
RW disc, which in turn makes it possible
to play music for a long time without hav-
ing to change the disc.
What is WMA?
• An abbreviation of “Windows Media Audio,” WMA is an audio compression
format developed by Microsoft.
• WMA files for which the DRM (Digital Rights Management) function is on can-
not be played.
• Windows Media
TM
and the Windows
®
logo are trademarks or registered trade-
marks of Microsoft Corporation in the
United States and other countries.
What is AAC?
• An abbreviation of “Advanced Audio Coding,” AAC is an audio compression
format used by MPEG2 and MPEG4. Points to remember when making MP3/
WMA/AAC files
Common
• High bit rate and high sampling fre-
quency are recommended for high qual-
ity sounds.
• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended. Selecting VBR may
cause display of inc orrect playing time
and jumpiness of playback.
• Playback sound quality varies depend- ing on the encoding environment. For
details, refer to the user manual of the
encoding software and the writing soft-
ware in use.

Never use “.mp3”, “.wma” or “.m4a”
