2022 SUZUKI JIMNY main

A. WARNING
The load-carrying capacity of your tyres is reduced at lower inflation pressures. If your tyres are even moderately under-inflated, the load on the tyres may exceed the load-car­rying capacity of the tyres, which could lead to tyre failure. The low tyre pressure warning light will not alert you to this condition, because it only comes on when one or more of your tyres becomes significantly under­
inflated. Check and adjust your tyre pressure at least once a month. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAIN­TENANCE" section.
A. WARNING
Continuing to drive with the low tyre pressure warning light on can lead to an accident, resulting in severe injury or death. If the low tyre 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 tyre can cause the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure, and may affect steering control and brake effective­ness. Stop the vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible and check your
tyres. • If you have a flat tyre, replace it with the spare tyre (if equipped). Refer to "Jacking instructions11 in "EMERGENCY SERVICE" section for the tyre replacement method. Also refer to "Replacing tyres and/ or wheels" for instructions on how to restore normal operation of the TPMS after you have had a flat tyre. If one or more of your tyres is under-inflated, adjust the inflation pressure of all tyres to the recom­mended inflation pressure as soon as possible.
BEFORE DRIVING
Refer to "Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)" in "OPERATING YOUR VEHI­CLE" section for additional details on the tyre pressure monitoring system. Refer to "Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTE­NANCE" section for information on main­taining proper tyre pressure.

Brake system warning light
(CD)
82K170
Three different types of operations exist depending on the vehicle's specification.
• The light comes on briefiy when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". The light comes on when the parking brake is engaged with the ignition switch "ON". The light comes on under either or both of above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fiuid in the brake fiuid reservoir falls below the specified level.
The light should go out after starting the engine and fully releasing the parking brake, if the fluid level in the brake fiuid reservoir is adequate.
The light also comes on together with the ABS warning light when the rear brake force control function (proportioning valve function) of the ABS system fails. If the brake system warning light comes on while you are driving the vehicle, it may mean that there is something wrong with
2-41
the vehicle's brake system. If this happens:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
A WARNING
Remember that stopping distance may be longer, you may have to push harder on the pedal, and the pedal may go down farther than normal.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting and stopping the vehicle on the shoul­der of the road. 3) If you determine that it is safe, drive the vehicle cautiously at low speed to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs or tow the vehicle to the nearest a SUZUKI dealer for repairs.
A WARNING
If any of the following conditions occur, you should immediately ask a SUZUKI dealer to inspect the brake system. If the brake system warning light does not go out after the engine has been started and the parking brake has been fully released. If the brake system warning light does not come on when the igni­tion switch is turned "ON". If the brake system warning light comes on at any time during vehi­cle operation.
NOTE: Because the brake system is self-adjust­ing, the fluid level will drop as the brake pads become worn. Replenishing the brake fluid reservoir is considered normal periodic maintenance.
NOTE: Parking brake reminder buzzer A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind you to release the parking brake if you start the vehicle without releasing the park­ing brake. Check that the parking brake is fully released and the brake system warn­ing light turns off.

Oil pressure light
50G051
When the ignition switch is turned "ON", this light comes on. When the engine is started, the light goes out. The light will come on and remain on if there is insuffi­cient oil pressure. If the light comes on when driving, pull off the road as soon as you can and stop the engine. Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. If there is enough oil, the lubrication sys­tem should be inspected by a SUZUKI dealer before you drive the vehicle again.
NOTICE
If you operate the engine with this light on, severe engine damage can result. Do not rely on the oil pressure light to indicate the need to add oil. Peri­odically check the engine oil level.
Charging light

BEFORE DRIVING
To turn the lights on or off, twist the knob on the end of the lever. There are four positions:
OFF (1) All lights are off.
AUTO (2) This function works when the ignition switch is turned "ON". The headlights and position lights are turned on and off auto­matically according to the amount of out­side light detected by the sensor. They go out automatically when you turn the igni­tion switch to "ACC" or "LOCK" position.
The light sensor (5) for sensing the amount of outside light is installed on the passen­ger's seat side instrument panel.
When headlights are turned on and the lighting control lever is in "AUTO" position, you can use the high beam assist (if equipped). For details, refer to "High beam assist" in "OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE" section.

A CAUTION
If the light sensor area of the wind­shield is covered with mud, ice1 or other similar substances, the head­lights and position lights may be turned on even when it is still light outside.
NOTE: Avoid covering the light sensor area of the windshield with a sticker. The sticker may impair the performance of the sen­sor and make the system unable to con­trol operation of the lights correctly. If you turned the ignition switch to "ON" position and "AUTO" position remains selected, the headlights and position lights come on automatically as it gets dark outside, even with the engine not running. Leaving the lights lit for a long time may lead to a completely dis­charged battery.
