WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of the Service Manual

10-2 RESTRAINT SYSTEM
General Description
SEAT BELT WITH ELR
The seat belt with Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) is designed so that it locks immediately (to prevent the
webbing from being pulled out of the retractor any further) when any of the following items is detected as
exceeding each set value; speed at which the webbing is pulled out of the retractor, acceleration or deceleration
of the vehicle speed, and inclination.
SEAT BELT WITH A-ELR
The automatic and emergency locking retractor (A-ELR) works as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) till its
webbing is pulled all the way out and then on as an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) till it is retracted fully.
ALR :
Automatically locks when the webbing is pulled out from the retractor and allowed to retract even a little.
Then the webbing can not be pulled out any further, unless it is wound all the way back into the retractor, which
releases the lock and allows the webbing to be pulled out.
SEAT BELT WITH PRETENSIONER (IF EQUIPPED)
The seat belt with ELR and a pretensioner has a pretensioner mechanism which operates in linkage with the air
bag in addition to the above described ELR. The pretensioner takes up the sag of the seat belt in occurrence of
a front collision with an impact larger than a certain set value, thereby enhancing restraint performance.
DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS
The driver and front passenger side air bags are components of the air bag system. In occurrence of a front col-
lision with an impact larger than a certain set value, they are activated by the ignition signal from SDM to supple-
ment protection offered by the driver and front passenger seat belts.
•the driver air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
•the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the instrument panel in front of the front passenger
seat
For more information, refer to Section 10B “Air Bag System”.

AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-57
Accident with or without deployment/activation - component inspections
Certain air bag and restraint system components must be inspected after any crash, whether the air bag system
activated or not.
Those components are:
•Steering column and shaft joints
–Check for length, damage and bend according to “CHECK-
ING STEERING COLUMN FOR ACCIDENT DAMAGE” in
Section 3C1.
•Steering column bracket and capsules
–Check for damage and bent.
•If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
•Steering wheel and driver air bag (inflator) module
–Check for damage or air bag (inflator) module fitness.
–Check trim cover (pad surface) for cracks.
–Check wire harness and connector for damage or tightness.
•If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
•Contact coil and combination switch assembly
–Check wire harness and connectors for damage or tight-
ness.
–Check contact coil case for damage.
•If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace.
