ings, depress the brake pedal several
times at low speed and check the brake

depress the brake pedal at low speed

effectiveness is fully recovered, to dry
the brake equipment.
When encountering a flooded area

Avoid driving in a flooded area or a deep
puddle. If driving in a flooded area is
unavoidable, go slowly in the lowest gear.
In case that you have driven in a flooded
area, stop the vehicle in a safe place while
checking the brake effectiveness. Then,
ask an authorized SUZUKI dealer or a
qualified workshop to check the following
inspection items.
• Function of brake
• Function of electrical components
• Changes of oil level and quality for
engine, transmission and differential. In
case that the oil is turbid whitely, water
has been mixed in the oil and an oil
change is required.
• Lubricant condition of the bearings, sus-
pension joints, etc.
NOTICE
Avoid driving in a flooded area or a
deep puddle. It may cause an engine
stall, short in electrical components,
engine and transmission damages,
etc.
