OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE • When the TPMS sensor's electronic signal is disturbed in one of the following ways: - Electric devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies are nearby. - A lot of snow or ice covers the vehicle, in particular, around the wheels or wheel housings. - Snow tires or tire chains are used. • When you use non-genuine SUZUKI wheels or tires. WARNING Only use tires and wheels recommended by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your vehicle. Use of tires or wheels not recommended by SUZUKI can result in TPMS failure. Refer to "Tires" in the "INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE" section for additional information. Break-In CAUTION The future performance and reliability 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 initial 960 km (600 miles) of vehicle operation. • After starting, do not race the engine. 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 stopping, especially during the first 320 km (200 miles) of driving. • Do not drive slowly with the transaxle in a high gear. • Drive the vehicle at moderate engine speeds. Replacing Tires and/or Wheels If you get a flat tire, Suzuki recommends that you have an authorized SUZUKI dealer mount a new tire on the wheel that had the flat tire, and reinstall this tire on the vehicle in place of the spare. The TPMS is already set up to recognize the ID code of the original wheel, and normal TPMS operation will be restored. If you need to replace original wheels on your vehicle, your dealer must make sure that TPMS sensors are installed in the new wheels and must set up the TPMS to recognize the new sensors. NOTE: A TPMS sensor is not installed in the spare tire. You should use the spare tire only in an emergency situation, and should replace the spare tire as soon as possible to restore normal TPMS operation. For Vehicles Sold in U.S.A.
