Seat belts should never be worn
with the straps twisted and should
be adjusted as tightly as is com-
fortable to provide the protection for
which they have been designed. A
slack belt will provide less pro-
tection than one which is snug.
Make sure that each seat belt buckle
is inserted into the proper buckle
catch. It is possible to cross the
buckles in the rear seat.
Pregnant women should use seat
belts, although specific recommen-
dations about driving should be
made by the woman’s medical advi-
sor. Remember that the lap portion

of the belt should be worn as low
as possible across the hips, as
shown in the diagram.
Do not wear your seat belt over
hard or breakable objects in your
pockets or on your clothing. If an
accident occurs, objects such as
glasses, pens, etc. under the seat
belt can cause injury.
Never use the same seat belt on
more than one occupant and never
attach a seat belt over an infant or
child being held on an occupant’s
lap. Such seat belt use could cause
serious injury in the event of an
accident.
Periodically inspect seat belt
assemblies for excessive wear and
damage. Seat belts should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated, or damaged in any
way. It is essential to replace the
entire seat belt assembly after it has
been worn in a severe impact, even
if damage to the assembly is not
obvious.
Children age 12 and under should
ride properly restrained in the rear
seat.
Infants and small children shouldnever be transported unless they are
properly restrained. Restraint
systems for infants and small chil-
dren can be purchased locally and
should be used. Make sure that the
system you purchase meets appli-
cable safety standards. Read and
follow all the directions provided by
the manufacturer.
For children, if the shoulder belt
irritates the neck or face, move the
child closer to the center of the
vehicle.
Avoid contamination of seat belt
webbing by polishes, oils,
chemicals, and particularly battery
acid. Cleaning may safely be carried
out using mild soap and water.
Do not insert any items such as
coins, clips, etc. into the seat belt
buckles, and be careful not to spill
liquids into these parts. If foreign
materials get into a seat belt buckle,
the seat belt may not work properly.
All seatbacks should always be in
an upright position when driving, or
seat belt effectiveness may be
reduced. Seat belts are designed to
offer maximum protection when
seatbacks are in the upright
position.

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.
