OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
80SS5-01E
The low tyre pressure warning light can
come on due to normal causes such as
natural air leakage and pressure changes
caused by changes in temperature or
atmospheric pressure. Adjusting the air
pressure in the tyres to the pressure
shown on the tyre information placard
should cause the low tyre pressure warn-
ing light to turn off.
To make the low tyre pressure warning
light go off, adjust the tyre pressures when
the tyres are cold, and drive the vehicle for
about 10 minutes.
When the adjusted tyre pressure is recog-
nized, the low tyre pressure warning light
will go off and the information display
shows the current tyre pressure (if you
select the TPMS monitor (if equipped)).
If the light turns on again shortly after
adjusting the pressure in your tyres, you
may have a flat tyre. If you have a flat tyre,
replace it with the spare tyre (if equipped).
Refer to “Jacking instructions” in “EMER-
GENCY SERVICE” section. Refer to
“Replacing tyres and/or wheels” for instruc-
tions on how to restore normal operation of
the tyre pressure monitoring system after
you have had a flat tyre.
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 effective-
ness. Stop 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 instructions” 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.

WARNING
(Continued)
• If your vehicle is equipped with a
flat tyre repair kit instead of a spare
tyre, refer to “Flat tyre repair kit” in
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section
for instructions on how to perform
an emergency repair of a flat tyre.
• If one or more of your tyres is
under-inflated, adjust the inflation
pressure in all of your tyres to the
recommended inflation pressure as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
If the low tyre pressure warning light
does not go off even when you drive
for more than 10 minutes after adjust-
ing the cold tyre pressure, there may
be a problem with the TPMS. Have
your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.
