If you must use a front-facing child restraint
in the front passenger’s seat, be sure to
move the front passenger’s seat as far back
as possible. Please refer to the “Seat Belts
and Child Restraint Systems” section in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section for details on
securing your child.

How the system works
In a frontal collision, the crash sensors will
detect rapid deceleration and send a signal
to the controller. if the controller judges that
the deceleration represents a severe frontal
crash, the controller will trigger the inflators.
The inflators inflate the appropriate air bags
with nitrogen or argon gas. The inflated air
bags provide a cushion for your head and
upper body. The air bag inflates and
deflates so quickly that you may not even
realize that it has activated. The air bag will
neither hinder your view nor make it harder
to exit the vehicle.
Air bags must inflate quickly and forcefully
in order to reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries. However, an unavoidable
consequence of the quick inflation is that
the air bag may irritate bare skin, such as
the facial area against a front air bag. Also,
upon inflation, a loud noise will occur and
some powder and smoke will be released.
These conditions are not harmful and do not
indicate a fire in the car. Be aware,
however, that some air bag components
may be hot for a while after inflation.
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper
position for maximum protection when an air
bag inflates. Adjust your seat as far back
as possible while still maintaining control of

w WARNING
An air bag supplements, or adds to, the
crash protection offered by seat belts.
The driver and all passengers must be
properly restrained by wearing seat
belts at all times, whether or not an air
bag is mounted at their seating
position, to minimize the risk of severe
injury or death in the event of a crash.

w WARNING
Do not install a rear-facing chile
restraint in the front passenger’s seat.
if the passenger’s front air bag
inflates, a child in a rear-facing child
restraint could be killed or severely
injured. The back of a rear-facing chile
restraint would be too close to the
inflating air bag.

w WARNING
The driver should not lean over the
steering wheel. The front passenger
should not rest his or her body
against the dashboard, or otherwise
get too close to the dashboard. In
these situations, the out-of-position
occupant would be too close to an
inflating air bag, and may suffer
severe injury.
Do not attach any objects to, or
place any objects over, the steering
wheel or dashboard. Do not place
any objects between the air bag and
the driver or front passenger. These
objects may interfere with air bag
operation or may be propelled by
the air bag in the event of a crash.
Either of these conditions may
cause severe injury.

the vehicle. Sit fully back in your seat; sit
up straight; do not lean over the steering
wheel or dashboard. Front occupants should
not lean on or sleep against the door.
Please refer to the “Front Seat” section,
“Seat Belts and Child Restraint Systems”
section in this section for details on proper
seat and seat belt adjustments.Note that even though your vehicle may be
moderately damaged in a collision, the col-
lision may not have been severe enough to
trigger the front air bags to inflate. If your
car sustains ANY front-end or side damage,
have the air bag system inspected by an
authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to
ensure it is in proper working order.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic
module which records information about the
air bag system. If the air bags deploy in a
crash, the module records information about
overall system status.
Servicing the air bag system
If the air bags inflate, have the air bags and
related components replaced by an autho-
rized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as soon as
possible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and
the driver’s floor is submerged, the air bag
controller could be damaged. If it does, have
the air bag system inspected by the MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
Special procedures are required for servic-
ing or replacing an air bag. For that reason,
only an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer
should be allowed to service or replace your
air bags. Please remind anyone who
services your vehicle, that it has air bags.

Service on or around air bag components
or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
Improper service could result in unintended
air bag deployment or could render the air
bag inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended inflation
of the air bag system, be sure the battery
is disconnected and the ignition switch has
been in the “LOCK” position for at least 90
seconds before performing any electrical
service work on your MARUTI SUZUKI. Do
not touch air bag system components or
wires. The wires are wrapped with yellow
tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are
yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a car that has an uninflated air
bag can be hazardous. Contact your
MARUTI SUZUKI authorized dealer, body
repair shop or scrap yard for help with dis-
posal.
According to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained on rear seats
than front passenger’s seat. Whenever
possible, MARUTI SUZUKI recommends
that child restraint systems be installed on
the rear seat.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 6783K Wear Your Seat Belts at All Times,
even if air bags are equipped at the
front seating positions. The driver
and all passengers should be prop-
erly restrained at all times, using
the seat belts provided. Refer to the
“Seat Belts and Child Restraint
Systems” section for instructions on
proper use of the seat belts.
Never drive while under the influ-
ence of alcohol or other drugs.
Alcohol and drugs can seriously
impair your ability to drive safely,
greatly increasing the risk of injury
to yourself and others. You should
also avoid driving when you are
tired, sick, irritated, or under stress.The future performance and reliability
of the engine depends on the care
and restraint exercised during its early
life. It is especially important to
observe the following precautions
during the initial 960 km (600 miles)
of vehicle operation.
After starting, do not race the
engine. Warm it up gradually.
Avoid prolonged vehicle operation at
a constant speed. Moving parts will
break in better if you vary your
speed.
Start off from a stop slowly. Avoid
full throttle starts.
Avoid hard braking, especially dur-
ing the first 320 km (200 miles) of
driving.
Do not drive slowly with the trans-
mission in a high gear.
Drive the vehicle at moderate engine
speeds.

Running-in
CAUTION
Catalytic ConverterThe purpose of the catalytic converter is to
minimize the amount of harmful pollutants
in your vehicle’s exhaust. Use of leaded fuel
in vehicles equipped with catalytic
converters is prohibited, because lead
deactivates the pollutant-reducing compo-
nents of the catalyst system.
The converter is designed to last the life of
the vehicle under normal usage and when
unleaded fuel is used. No special mainte-
nance is required on the converter. How-
ever, it is very important to keep the engine
properly tuned. Engine misfiring, which can
result from an improperly tuned engine
loose writing etc., may cause overheating
of the catalyst. This may result in perma-
nent heat damage to the catalyst and other
vehicle components.
