Collision with a fixed wall or guardrail atan angle of greater than about 30 degrees (1) from the front

In frontal collisions with a fixed wall thatdoes not move or deform in less thanabout 25 km/h (15 mph)
80J107
Collision angle is offset from the vehicleangle (offset collision)
How the system worksIn a frontal collision, the crash sensors will detect rapid deceleration, and if the control-ler judges that the deceleration represents asevere frontal crash, the controller will trig- ger the inflators. The inflators inflate the airbags with nitrogen or argon gas. The inflated air bags provide a cushion for yourhead and upper body. The air bag inflatesand deflates so quickly that you may noteven realize that it has activated. The airbag will neither hinder your view nor make itharder 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 con-sequence of the quick inflation is that the airbag may irritate bare skin, such as the facialarea. Also, upon inflation, a loud noise willoccur and some powder and smoke will be released. These conditions are not harmful and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle. Beaware, however, that some air bag compo-nents may be hot for a while after inflation.
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper position for maximum protection when an airbag inflates. Adjust your seat as far back aspossible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. Sit fully back in your seat; sit upstraight; do not lean over the steering wheel or dashboard. Please refer to the “FrontSeat” section and the “Seat Belts and ChildRestraint Systems” section in this sectionfor details on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.

• The driver should not lean over thesteering wheel. The front passen- ger should not rest his or her body against the dashboard, or other- wise get too close to the dash-board. In these situations, the out- of-position occupant would be too close to an inflating air bag, andmay suffer severe injury.• Do not attach any objects to, orplace any objects over, the steeringwheel 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 acrash. Either of these conditions may cause severe injury.

NOTE: Because the disc brake system is self- adjusting, the fluid level will drop as thebrake pads become worn. Replenishing the brake fluid reservoir is considered nor- mal periodic maintenance.
NOTE: (Parking Brake Reminder Buzzer) (ifequipped) A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind you to release the parking brake if youstart the vehicle without releasing the park- ing brake. Make sure that the parking brake is fully released and the brake sys-tem warning light turns off.
Seat Belt Warning Light
(if equipped)
60G049
This light blinks as a reminder until the driver’s seat belt is buckled.
For details about the seat belt reminder, refer to “Seat Belts and Child Restraint Systems” in this section.
“AIR BAG” Light (if equipped)
63J030
This light blinks or comes on for severalseconds when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position so you can check if the light is working.
The light will come on and stay on if there is a problem in the air bag system (ifequipped).
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light (if equipped)
65D529
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the light comes on briefly so you can check that the light is working. If the light stays on, or comes on whendriving, there may be something wrong with the ABS.
If this happens: 1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.2) Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” andthen start the engine again.
If the warning light comes on briefly then turns off, the system is normal. If the warn- ing light still stays on, the system will besomething wrong.
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 controlfunction (proportioning valve function) and there may be something wrong with both the rear brake force control function andanti-lock function of the ABS system.
WA R N I N G
If the “AIR BAG” light does not blinkor come on briefly when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position,stays on for more than 10 seconds, or comes on while driving, the air bag system (if equipped) may not workproperly. Have both systems inspected by an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

(Continued) • Always remove the ignition keywhen leaving the vehicle even if only for a short time. Also do not leave children alone in a parkedvehicle. Unattended children could cause accidental movement of the vehicle or could tamper with powerwindows or power sunroof. They also could suffer from heat stroke in warm or hot weather. Thesecould result in severe injury or even death.
NOTICE
• Do not use the starter motor for more than 12 seconds at a time.For diesel engine model, do not use the starter motor for more than 30 seconds at a time. If the enginedoes not start, wait 15 seconds before trying again.

WA R N I N G
• Never drive your vehicle with theparking brake on: rear brake effec-tiveness can be reduced from over- heating, brake life may be shortened, or permanent brakedamage may result. • If the parking brake does not hold the vehicle securely or does notfully release, have your vehicle inspected immediately by an autho- rized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
WA R N I N G
Always set the pa rking brake fully before leaving your vehicle or it may move, causing injury or damage. When parking, make sure the gear-shift lever is in reverse or first gear. Remember, even though the transaxle is in gear, you must set theparking brake fully.

Running-in Catalytic Converter
80G106
The purpose of the catalytic converter is to minimize the amount of harmful pollutantsin your vehicle’s exhaust. Use of leaded fuel in vehicles equipped with catalytic converters is prohibited, because leaddeactivates 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, whichcan result from an improperly tuned engine, may cause overheating of the cat- alyst. This may result in permanent heatdamage to the catalyst and other vehicle components.
WA R N I N G
• Wear Your Seat Belts at All Times. Even though air bags are equippedat the front seating positions, the driver and all passengers should be properly restrained at all times,using the seat belts provided. Refer to the “Seat Belts and Child Restraint Systems” section forinstructions 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 aretired, sick, irritated, or under stress.
NOTICE
The future performance and reliabil- ity of the engine depends on the care and restraint exercised during its early life. It is especially important toobserve 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 operationat 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, especiallyduring the first 320 km (200 miles) of driving. • Do not drive slowly with thetransaxle in a high gear. • Drive the vehicle at moderate engine speeds.• Do not tow a trailer during the first 960 km (600 miles) of vehicle oper- ation.
