Dual camera brake support (if equipped)Dual camera brake support is a system
that detects obstacles or partition lines in
front of your vehicle by the stereo camera,
attempts to avoid a crash by giving warn-
ing to the driver, and attempts to reduce
damage in the event of a crash. NOTE:
• While the system is working, if a vehicle
in front of you moves outside of the ste-
reo camera’s detection field or the vehi-
cle can no longer be detected, the
system may stop functioning.
• While the system is working, a braking sound may be heard even if you do not
depress the brake pedal, but this is nor-
mal.
WA R N I N G
• Dual camera brake support has lim-its and may not function properly
depending on the driving condi-
tions. Do not rely excessively on
the system and always drive in a
safe manner.
• For safety reasons, do not check the operation of the system by
yourself.
• Check that all passengers fasten their seat belts when the vehicle is
being operated.
When the system is activated, there
is a risk of serious injury from
being thrown.

position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF).
Find a safe place to park and turn the igni-
tion switch to “LOCK” position or change
the ignition mode to LOCK (OFF) by press-
ing the engine switch.
Restart the engine, and check that the dual
camera brake support indicator light and
lane departure warning indicator light go
off.
• If both of the indicators stay on after restarting the engine, there may be a
failure of the stereo camera. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to have the stereo cam-
era inspected. It is thought that the cause of failure is the
followings.
• When the stereo camera has an abnor-
mality
• When the temperature of the body of stereo camera is t oo low or too high
• When the mounting position of the ste- reo camera is shifted greatly
• When there are communication abnor-
malities among the engine, transaxle
and brake controller
• When the dual camera brake support
OFF switch has an abnormality
• When the steering angle sensor has an abnormality
• When the power supply of the stereo camera is cut
NOTE:
• Under the following situations, the dual camera brake support indicator light and
lane departure warning indicator light
come on after the engine has started, it
does not indicate a malfunction. Once
the ignition switch is turned to “LOCK”

(1) Rearview camera
The rearview camera is installed beside
the license plate light.
WA R N I N G
The distance viewed in the rearview
camera may differ from the actual
distance according to the condition
of road or the load the vehicle is car-
rying. Since the camera display area
is also limited, backing up by only
looking at the display may cause an
accident or a crash with an object.
The rearview camera cannot replace
the driver’s attention. The driver
alone is responsible for parking and
similar driving maneuvers.
• Use the rearview camera only to provide driving assistance.
• Always drive carefully confirming
the safety of the rear and the sur-
rounding conditions by looking
directly with your eyes and using
the rear view mirror.
• Check that the tailgate is securely closed when backing up.
NOTICE
If you use the rearview camera for a
long time when the ignition switch is
in “ON” position or the ignition mode
is ON, but the engine is not running,
the lead-acid battery may discharge.
Do not leave the ignition switch in
“ON” position or the ignition mode
ON for a long time when the engine is
not running.
NOTICE
The rearview camera is a precision
instrument. If you strike the camera,
it may be broken and cause damage
resulting in a catch fire or a malfunc-
tion.
• Do not strike the camera.
• Do not remove snow or mud on thecamera lens with a stick.

– Check that the gearshift lever is
shifted to “R” position.
• If the image from the rearview camera is poor.
– Check that the camera lens is not dirty.
– Check that light from the sun or thebeam of the headlights from the vehi-

the lens.
If the rearview camera system is still not
working properly after checking the above,
have the system inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
Braking
60G165S
The distance needed to bring any vehicle
to a halt increases with the speed of the
vehicle. The braking distance needed, for
example, at 60 km/h (37 mph) will be
approximately 4 times greater than the
braking distance needed at 30 km/h (19
mph). Start to depress the brake pedal
when there is plenty of distance between
your vehicle and the stopping point, and
slow down gradually.
Power-assisted brakesYour vehicle has power-assisted brakes. If
power assistance is lo st due to a stalled
engine or other failure s, the system is still
fully operational on reserve power and you
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop by
pressing the brake pedal once and holding
it down. The reserve power is partly used
up when you depress the brake pedal and
reduces each time the pedal is pressed.
Apply smooth and even pressure to the
pedal. Do not pump the pedal.
WA R N I N G
If water gets into the brake devices,
brake performance may become poor
and unpredictable. After driving
through water or washing the under-
side of the vehicle, test the brakes
while driving at a slow speed to see if
they have maintained 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 effectiveness.

Brake assist systemWhen you slam the brakes on, the brake
assist system determines it to be an emer-
gency stop and provides more powerful
braking for a driver who cannot hold down
the brake pedal firmly.
NOTE:
If you quickly and forcefully depress the
brakes, you may hear clicking sound by
the brake assist system operation. This is
normal and indicates that the brake assist
system is activated properly.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec-
tronically controlling braking pressure. It
will also help you maintain steering control
when braking on slippery surfaces or when
braking hard.
The ABS works automatically, so you do
not need any special braking technique.
Just push the brake pedal down without
pumping. The ABS will operate whenever
it senses that the wheels are locking up.
You may feel the brake pedal move a little
while the ABS is operating.
NOTE:
• The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is under about 9 km/h (6 mph).
• If the ABS system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-
ing in the brake pedal. This is normal
and indicates that the brake fluid pres-
sure is being controlled properly.
• You may hear an operation sound when you start the engine or after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the
above systems are in the self-check
mode. This sound does not indicate a
malfunction.
WA R N I N G
Even without reserve power in the
brake system, you can still stop the
vehicle by pressing the brake pedal
harder than normally required. How-
ever, the stopping distance may be
longer.
WA R N I N G
• On some types of loose surfaces (such as gravel, snow-covered
roads, etc.), the stopping distance
required for a vehicle with ABS
may be slightly greater than the
one required for a comparable vehi-
cle with a conventional brake sys-
tem. With a conventional brake
system, skidding tires are able to
plow the gravel or snow layer,
shortening the stopping distance.
ABS minimizes this resistance
effect. Allow for extra stopping dis-
tance when driving on loose sur-
faces.
• On regular paved roads, some driv-
ers may be able to obtain slightly
shorter stopping distances with
conventional brake systems than
with ABS.
• In both of the above conditions, ABS will still offer the advantage of
helping you maintain directional
control. However, remember that
ABS will not compensate for bad
road or weather conditions or poor
driver judgment. Use good judg-
ment and do not drive too fast.
