Operating conditions of ENG A-STOP systemStandby conditions
If all of the following conditions are met while driving, the automatic engine stop will be permitted.
• For CVT, the ENG A-STOP indicator light (green) will come on.
#1: If the battery is discharged, for example, if the vehicle has not been used for a long time or electrical components, such as the navi-
gation system or audio system, have not been used for a long ti me while the engine was stopped, it may take some time until th e
system can be in standby.
#2: If any of the warning and indi cator lights affecting the ENG A-STOP system come on, the e ngine will not be stopped automati cally.
#3: The system will be in standby even though the gearshift leve r is in the “N” position, however, the engine will be stopped automati-
cally when the vehicl e is stopped, instead of when it is decelerating (approximately 13 km/ h or less) before stopping.
#4: After the ENG A-STOP indicator light (green) comes on, there may be a signal to prevent stopping the engine. In this case, the ENG
A-STOP indicator light (green) goes off when the vehicle is sto pped, and the engine is not stopped automatically. Also, if any of the
warning and indi cator lights affecting the ENG A-STOP system co me on, the engine will not be stopped automatically.

Canceling speed limiter• To cancel the speed limiter, push “CAN-CEL” switch (2). The set indicator (5) will
go off.
• To resume the previously set speed, push up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3)
and turn on the set indicator (5).
To turn off the speed limiter system, push
“LIMIT” switch (1) and check that limit indi-
cator (4) is off.
Also, you can turn off the speed limiter by
turning off the engine.
NOTE:
If you turn off the speed limiter system, the
previously set speed in the memory is
cleared. Set your speed again.
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.

Running-in
Catalytic converter
80G106
The purpose of the catalytic converter is to
minimize the amount of harmful pollutants
in your vehicle’s exhaust. Use of leaded
fuel in vehicles equipped with catalytic
converters is prohibited, because lead
deactivates the pollutant-reducing compo-
nents of the catalyst system.
The converter is designed to last the life of
the vehicle under normal usage and when
unleaded fuel is used. No special mainte-
nance is required on the converter. How-
ever, it is very important to keep the engine
properly tuned. Engine misfiring, which can
result from an improperly tuned engine,
may cause overheating of the catalytic
converter. This may result in permanent
WA R N I N G
• Fasten your seat belts at all times.Even though air bags are equipped
at the front seating positions, the
driver and all passengers should
be properly restrained at all times,
using the seat belts provided. Refer
to “Seat belts and child restraint
systems” section for instructions
on proper use of the seat belts.
• Never drive under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs. Alcohol and
drugs can seriously impair your
ability to drive safely, greatly
increasing the risk of injury to
yourself and others. You should
also avoid driving when you are
tired, sick, irritated or under stress.
NOTICE
The future performance and reliabil-
ity of the engine depends on the care
and restraint exercised during its
early life. It is especially important to
observe the following precautions
during the first 960 km (600 miles) of
vehicle operation.
•After starting, do not race theengine. Warm it up gradually.
• Avoid prolonged vehicle operation at a constant speed. Moving parts
will break in better if you vary your
speed.
• Start off from a stop slowly. Avoid full throttle starts.
• Avoid hard braking, especially during the first 320 km (200 miles)
of driving.
• Do not drive slowly with the trans- axle in a high gear.
• Drive the vehicle at moderate
engine speeds.
• Do not tow a trailer during the first 960 km (600 miles) of vehicle oper-
ation.

Front cup holders (2) / Rear cup holder (5)Use the rear cup holder to put a cup with a
lid or a bottle with a cap. Also, you can put
small articles in the rear cup holder.
Front bottle holder (3) / Rear bottle holder (6)You should only place a bottle with a cap in

75RM011
This pocket is provided for holding light
and soft things such as gloves, newspa-
pers or magazines.
WA R N I N G
Do not place any objects which may
fall out from the pocket when the
vehicle is moving.
Failure to take the precaution may
result in an object interfering with the
pedals and causing a loss of vehicle
control or an accident.
WA R N I N G
Failure to take the precautions listed
below could cause personal injury or
vehicle damage.
• Be careful when you are using the
cup holders to hold a cup contain-
ing liquid. Spilling out hot liquid
can cause burn injury. Spilling liq-
uids on the lithium-ion battery in
models equipped with ENG A-
STOP system or SHVS may cause a
fire or electric shock or damage to
the battery.
• Do not use the cup holders to hold sharp-edged, hard or breakable
objects. Objects in the cup holders
may be thrown about during a sud-
den stop or impact, and could
cause personal injury.
• Be careful not to spill liquid or insert any foreign materials into the
moving part of the gearshift lever,
or any electrical components. Liq-
uid or foreign materials may dam-
age these parts.
• If you spill, or drop liquid acciden- tally, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized SUZUKI dealer.
CAUTION
Do not put hard or breakable objects
in the pocket. If an accident occurs,
objects such as bottles, cans, etc.
can injure the occupants in the rear
seat.EXAMPLE
