INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
With the engine running, measure the dis-
tance between the brake pedal and floor
carpet when the pedal is depressed with
approximately 30 kg (66 lbs) of force. The
minimum distance required is as specified.
Since your vehicle's brake system is self-
adjusting, there is no need for pedal
adjustment.
If the pedal to floor carpet distance as
measured above is less than the minimum
distance required, have your vehicle
inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
• When measuring the distance between
the brake pedal and floor wall, be sure
not to include the floor mat or rubber on
the floor carpet in your measurement.
• Measure the distance at the brake
pedal's side facing toward the passen-
ger's door.

WARNING
If you experience any of the following
problems with your vehicle's brake
system, have the vehicle inspected
immediately by a SUZUKI dealer.
• Poor braking performance
• Uneven braking (brakes not work-
ing uniformly on all wheels.)
• Excessive pedal travel
• Brake dragging
• Excessive noise
Parking brake
Ratchet tooth specification "b":
4th – 9th
Lever pull force (1):
200 N (20 kg, 45 lbs)
Check the parking brake for proper adjust-
ment by counting the number of clicks
made by the ratchet teeth as you slowly
pull up on the parking brake lever to the
point of full engagement. The parking
brake lever should stop between the speci-
fied ratchet teeth and the rear wheels
should be securely locked. If the parking
brake is not properly adjusted or the
brakes drag is suspected even after the
lever has been fully released, have the
parking brake inspected and/or adjusted by
a SUZUKI dealer.
