 WARNING
Riding the motorcycle with the
traction control system turned
on and the traction control sys-
tem indicator light lit can be
hazardous.
If the traction control system
indicator light comes on while
riding, stop the motorcycle in a
safe place and turn off the igni-
tion switch. Turn the ignition
switch "ON" after a while and
check whether the indicator
light comes on.
• If the indicator light goes off
after starting to ride, the trac-
tion control system will be
functioning.
• If it does not go off after
starting to ride, the traction
control system is not func-
tioning. You should have the
system checked by an autho-
rized Suzuki dealer as soon
as possible.
NOTE: For more detailed informa-
tion on the traction control sys-
tem, see page 3-24.
