OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

Clutch pedal (1)

A clutch pedal is used to disengage the

driving force to the wheels when starting

the engine, stopping, or shifting the gear-

shift lever. Depressing the pedal disen-

gages the clutch.

A WARNING

Do not drive with your foot resting on

the clutch pedal. It could result in

excessive clutch wear, clutch dam-

age, or unexpected loss of engine

braking.

Brake pedal (2)

Your vehicle is equipped with either front

and rear disc brakes or front disc brakes

and rear drum brakes. Depressing a brake

pedal applies both sets of brakes.

You may hear occasional brake squeal

when you apply the brakes. This is a nor-

mal condition caused by environmental

factors such as temperature, humidity or

dust, etc.

A WARNING

If brake squeal is excessive and

occurs each time the brakes are

applied, you should have the brakes

checked by a SUZUKI dealer.

A WARNING

Do not apply brakes continuously or

rest your foot on the brake pedal.

This will result in overheating of the

brakes which could cause unpredict-

able braking action, longer stopping

distances, or permanent brake dam-

age.

Accelerator pedal (3)

An accelerator pedal controls the speed of

the engine. Depressing the accelerator

pedal increases power output and speed.
