BEFORE DRIVING -> Warning and indicator lights for Your Suzuki Swift 4 Door First generation (2004-2009)

BEFORE DRIVING  
WARNING  
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire  
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to  
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces  
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may  
affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping  
ability. Each tire, including the spare,  
should be checked at least once a month  
when cold and set to the recommended  
inflation pressure as specified in the vehi-  
cle placard.  
Warning and indicator lights  
Failure to take corrective action when  
the low tire pressure warning light is  
not working or when it comes on and  
blinks while driving can lead to an  
accident.  
NOTE:  
If warning and indicator lights blink or  
come on, the corresponding messages  
may be shown on the information display.  
If the low tire pressure warning light  
does not come on for 2 seconds after  
the ignition switch is turned to “ON”  
position or the engine switch is  
pressed to change the ignition mode  
to “ON”, or comes on and blinks  
while driving, have your vehicle  
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI  
dealer. Even if the light turns off after  
blinking, indicating that the monitor-  
ing system has recovered, you  
should still have the system checked  
by an authorized SUZUKI dealer.  
Low tire pressure warning light  
The low tire pressure warning light is also  
used to inform you of a TPMS malfunction.  
When the system detects a malfunction,  
this light will blink for about 75 seconds  
and then remain continuously illuminated.  
This sequence will be repeated after the  
ignition switch is turned to “ON” position or  
the engine switch is pressed to change the  
ignition mode to “ON” as long as the mal-  
function exists.  
52D305  
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your  
vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure  
monitoring system (TPMS) that uses a low  
tire pressure warning light to inform you  
when one or more of your tires is signifi-  
cantly under-inflated.  
NOTE:  
The low tire pressure warning light may not  
come on immediately if you have a sudden  
loss of air pressure.  
When the ignition switch is turned to “ON”  
position or the engine switch is pressed to  
change the ignition mode to “ON”, this light  
comes on briefly so you can check that the  
light is working.  
When the low tire pressure warning light is  
lit, one or more of your tires is significantly  
under-inflated. You should stop and check  
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate  
them to the proper pressure as indicated  
on the vehicle’s tire information placard.

BEFORE DRIVING  
WARNING  
WARNING  
WARNING  
The load-carrying capacity of your  
tires is reduced at lower inflation  
pressures. If your tires are even mod-  
erately under-inflated, the load on the  
tires may exceed the load-carrying  
capacity of the tires, which could lead  
to tire failure. The low tire pressure  
warning light will not alert you to this  
condition, because it only comes on  
when one or more of your tires  
becomes significantly under-inflated.  
Check and adjust your tire inflation  
pressure at least once a month. Refer  
to “Tires” in “INSPECTION AND  
MAINTENANCE” section.  
Continuing to drive with the low tire  
pressure warning light on can lead to  
an accident, resulting in severe injury  
or death.  
(Continued)  
• If your vehicle is equipped with a  
flat tire repair kit instead of a spare  
tire, refer to “Flat tire repair kit” in  
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section  
for instructions on how to perform  
an emergency repair of a flat tire.  
• If one or more of your tires is  
under-inflated, adjust the inflation  
pressure of all tires to the recom-  
mended inflation pressure as soon  
as possible.  
If the low tire 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 tire can  
cause the tire to overheat and can  
lead to tire failure, and may affect  
steering control and brake effective-  
ness. Stop the vehicle in a safe place  
as soon as possible and check your  
tires.  
Refer to “Tire pressure monitoring system  
(TPMS)” in “OPERATING YOUR VEHI-  
CLE” section for additional details on the  
tire pressure monitoring system. Refer to  
“Tires” in “INSPECTION AND MAINTE-  
NANCE” section for information on main-  
taining proper tire pressure.  
• If you have a flat tire, replace it with  
the spare tire (if equipped). Refer to  
“Jacking instructions” in “EMER-  
GENCY SERVICE” section for the  
tire replacement method. Also refer  
to “Replacing tires and/or wheels”  
for instructions on how to restore  
normal operation of the TPMS after  
you have had a flat tire.

WARNING  
If the brake system warning light comes on  
while you are driving the vehicle, it may  
mean that there is something wrong with  
the vehicle’s brake system.  
Brake system warning light  
If any of the following conditions  
occur, you should immediately ask  
an authorized SUZUKI dealer to  
inspect the brake system.  
If this happens:  
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.  
• 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 igni-  
tion switch is turned to “ON” posi-  
tion or the engine switch is pressed  
to change the ignition mode to  
“ON”.  
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.

Three different types of operations exist  
depending on the vehicle’s specification.  
• The light comes on briefly when the igni-  
tion switch is turned to “ON” position or  
the engine switch is pressed to change  
the ignition mode to “ON”.  
• The light comes on when the parking  
brake is engaged with the ignition switch  
in “ON” position or the ignition mode is  
“ON”.  
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 an authorized SUZUKI dealer  
for repairs or tow the vehicle to the  
nearest an authorized SUZUKI dealer  
for repairs.  
• If the brake system warning light  
comes on at any time during vehi-  
cle operation.  
NOTE:  
• The light comes on under either or both  
of above two conditions.  
Because the brake system is self-adjust-  
ing, the fluid level will drop as the brake  
pads become worn. Replenishing the  
brake fluid reservoir is considered normal  
periodic maintenance.  
The light also comes on when the fluid in  
the brake fluid reservoir falls below the  
specified level.  
NOTE:  
The light should go out after starting the  
engine and fully releasing the parking  
brake, if the fluid level in the brake fluid  
reservoir is adequate.  
Parking brake reminder buzzer  
A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind  
you to release the parking brake if you  
start the vehicle without releasing the park-  
ing brake. Check that the parking brake is  
fully released and the brake system warn-  
ing light turns off.
