BEFORE DRIVING
79MH0-74E
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) warn-
ing light
65D529
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.
If the light stays on or comes on when driv-
ing, there may be something wrong with
the ABS.
If this happens:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
2) Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” or
change the ignition mode to “LOCK”
(OFF) by pressing the engine switch
and then start the engine again.
If the warning light comes on briefly and
then turns off, the system is normal. If the
warning light still stays on, something is
wrong with the system.
If this light and the brake system warning
light stay on or come on simultaneously
when driving, your ABS system is
equipped with the rear brake force control
function (proportioning valve function) and
there may be something wrong with both
the rear brake force control function and
the anti-lock function of the ABS system.
If one of the above occurs, have the sys-
tem inspected by your authorised Maruti
Suzuki workshop.
If the ABS becomes inoperative, the brake
system will function as an ordinary brake
system that does not have this ABS sys-
tem.
For details of ABS system, refer to “Anti-
lock brake system (ABS)” in “OPERATING
YOUR VEHICLE” section.
