w WARNING
An air bag supplements, or adds to,
the frontal crash protection offered by
seat belts. The driver and all pas-
sengers 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.
83K-02-039
w ww w
w WARNING
Never allow persons to ride in the
cargo area of a vehicle. In the event
of an accident, there is a much
greater risk of injury for persons
who are not riding in a seat with
their seat belt securely fastened.
Seat belts should always be
adjusted as follows:
– the lap portion of the belt should
be worn low across the pelvis, not
across the waist.
– the shoulder straps should be
worn on the outside shoulder
only, and never under the arm.
– the shoulder straps should be
away from your face and neck,
but not falling off your shoulder.

or by applying excessive force.
As the lock is designed exclusively
for securing the rear seatback, do
not use it for any other purpose.
Incorrect use of it may cause
damage to the inside of the lock
and prevent the seatback from being
locked securely.Seat Belts and Child Restraint

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.

turns off, the system is normal. If the warn-
ing light still stays on, there is something
wrong in the system.
If the light and the brake system warning
light stay on, or come on simultaneously
when driving, your ABS system is equipped
with the rear brake force control function
(Proportioning valve function) and there may
be something wrong with both the rear
brake force control function and anti-lock
function of the ABS system.
If one of these happens, have the system
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.Malfunction Indicator Light

If the ABS becomes inoperative, the brake
system will function as an ordinary brake
system that does not have this ABS system.Your vehicle has a computer-controlled

panel to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
The malfunction indicator light comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position to let you know the light is working
and goes out when the engine is started.
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
or blinks when the engine is running, there
is a damage in the emission control system.
Bring the vehicle to your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer to have the damage fixed.
Also, if the light comes on, there may be
something wrong with the transaxle system.
