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.
