OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
78RB1-01E
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.

NOTE:
• For a certain type of instrument cluster
only, the information display shows the
above warning and indicator message
when this light comes on.
• When the tyre pressure is adjusted in
high altitude areas, the low tyre pressure
light may not turn off even after tyre
pressure adjustment. In this case, adjust
the inflation pressure to a slightly higher
pressure than the one shown on the tyre
information placard.
• The low tyre pressure warning light may
turn off temporarily after coming on. This
could be due to increase of surface tem-
perature after long distance driving or
traveling to a high temperature area.
Even if the tyre pressure warning light
turns off after coming on, check the infla-
tion pressure of all tyres.
• To reduce the chance that the low tyre
pressure warning light will come on due
to normal changes in temperature and
atmospheric pressure, it is important to
check and adjust the tyre pressures
when the tyres are cold. If you check
tyres after driving, they are warm. Even
if the tyre pressure seems to be good in
this condition, it could fall below the
specified pressure when tyres cool
down. Also, if tyres are inflated to the
specified pressure in a warm garage, the
tyre pressure could fall below the speci-
fied one when you drive the vehicle out-
side in very cold temperature. If you
adjust the tyre pressure in a garage that
is warmer than the outside temperature,
you should add 1 kPa to the recom-
mended cold tyre pressure for every
0.8°C difference between garage tem-
perature and outside temperature.
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 a SUZUKI
dealer.
