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.

consumption the last time you drove the
vehicle, the display indicates “—.-” when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Unless the vehicle is moving, the display will
indicate “—.-”.NOTE:
Depending on the vehicle’s specification,
the fuel consumption units of initial
setting are indicated as L/100km, km/L.
For “L/100km” or “km/L” setting, the
indicated maximum value of
instantaneous fuel consumption is 30. No
more than 30 will be indicated on the
display even if the actual instantaneous
fuel consumption is higher.
Average fuel consumption (e) (if
equipped)If you selected average fuel consumption
the last time you drove the vehicle, the
display shows the last value of average fuel
consumption when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position. Unless you
reset the value of average fuel consumption,
the display indicates the value of average
fuel consumption which includes average
fuel consumption during previous driving.
To reset the value of average fuel

driving range will be shown after driving
for a while.
For a new vehicle with low mileage, the
driving range may not be shown
promptly in the display when beginning
to drive. The driving range will be shown
after a while.
NOTE:
The values of fuel consumption and driving
range shown in the display are affected by
conditions such as the following;the approximate distance you can drive until
the fuel gauge indicates “E” based current
driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on,
the display “—-” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.
As the driving range after refueling is
calculated based on the last driving
condition,the value is different each time you
