be detected
Swift
74LHT3003

74LHT3004
An obstacle within about 20 cm (8 in)
from a sensor or just below a sensor is
not detectable. The sensors can detect an obstacle up to
about 1.5 m (5 ft) from the rear of vehicle. EXAMPLE EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
Under the following conditions, the
parking sensor system may not
work normally because the sensors
cannot detect obstacles correctly.
– Sensors are covered with mud, ice
or other materials. (Such materials
must be removed for normal oper-
ation.)
– sensor are wet from water
splashes or heavy rain.
– Sensors are covered by a hand,
sticker, accessory, etc.
– There is an accessory or other
object attached within the sen-
sor’s sensing area.– Items such as tow hooks, commer-
cially available corner poles, radio
antenna, etc. are installed on the
bumper.
– The height of the bumper is changed
due to alteration to the suspension or
other causes.
– The sensor areas are extremely hot
from direct sunlight or cold due to
freezing weather.
– The vehicle is on a rough surface,
slope, gravel road or grass field.
– The vehicle is at a steep angle.
– Sensors have intercepted ultrasonic
noise from another vehicle’s horn,
engine, air braking system (large vehi-
cles), or parking sensor.
– Obstacles are too close to the sen-
sors.
(Continued)
WARNING
– Sensors are at an angle to a highly
reflective object such as glass. (Ultra-
sonic waves are not reflected back
from the obstacle.)
Sensors may not be able to correctly
detect the following types of obstacles:
– Objects made of a thin material like
wire netting and ropes.
– Square-shaped curbstones or other
objects with sharp edges.
– Tall objects with a large upper part like
a road sign.
– Low-profile objects such as curb-
stones.
– Sound-absorbing objects such as cot-
ton and snow.– Sensors have intercepted ultra-
sonic noise from another vehi-
cle’s horn, engine, air braking
system (large vehicles), or park-
ing sensor.
– Obstacles are too close to the
sensors.
– Sensors are at an angle to a
highly reflective object such as
glass. (Ultrasonic waves are not
reflected back from the obstacle.)
Sensors may not be able to cor-
rectly detect the following types of
obstacles:
– Objects made of a thin material
like wire netting and ropes.
– Square-shaped curbstones or
other objects with sharp edges.

mum performance and durability of your air
conditioner, it needs to be run periodically.
Operate the air conditioner at least once a
month for one minute with the engine
idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil
and helps protect the internal components.
NOTE:
Your vehicle uses the air conditioning
refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called
“R-134a”. Only R-134a should be used in
your vehicle.Radio Antenna
63J055
The radio antenna on the roof is remov-
able. To remove the antenna, turn it coun-
terclockwise. To reinstall the antenna, turn
it clockwise firmly by hand.Installation of Radio
Frequency TransmittersWe recommend that you always ask a
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer about frequency
band, max output power, antenna position
at vehicle and specific conditions for instal-
lation and/or use before installing a radio
transmitter in your vehicle. Such equip-
ments may cause the electronic control
system to malfunction if they are incor-
rectly installed or they are not suited for the
vehicle.
NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant may
damage your air conditioning sys-
tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or
replace the R-134a with other refrig-
erants.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to the radio
antenna:
Remove the antenna when using an
automatic car wash.
Remove the antenna when the
antenna hits anything such as a
low ceiling in a parking garage or
putting a car cover over your vehi-
cle.

Safety Information Notes on Discs
Precautions
When the inside of the vehicle is very
cold and the player is used soon after
switching on the heater, condensation
may form on the disc or the optical parts
of the player and proper playback may
not be possible. If condensation forms
on the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If
condensation forms on the optical parts
of the player, do not use the player for
about one hour. This will allow the con-
densation to disappear normally.
Driving on extremely bumpy roads which
cause severe vibrations may cause
sound to skip.
This unit uses a precision mechanism.
Even in the event that trouble arises,
never open the case, disassemble the
unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.
Please bring the unit to an authorized
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.Cautions on Handling
This unit has been designed specifically for
playback of compact discs bearing mark
(A) shown above.
No other discs can be played.
To remove the compact disc from its stor-
age case, press down on the center of the
case and lift the disc out, holding it care-
fully by the edges.
Always handle the compact disc by the
edges. Never touch the surface.
WA R N I N G
If you pay extended attention to oper-
ating the audio system or viewing the
audio system display while driving,
an accident can occur. If you set the
sound volume too loud, it could pre-
vent you from being aware of road
and traffic conditions.
Keep your eyes on the road and
your mind on the drive. Avoid pay-
ing extended attention to operating
the audio system or viewing the
audio system display.
Familiarize yourself with the audio
system controls and operation of
the audio system before driving.
Preset your favorite radio stations
before driving so that you can
quickly tune to them using the pre-
sets.
Set the sound volume to a level
that will allow you to continue to be
aware of road and traffic conditions
while driving.
