67LH3-74E

Night time driving
74LHM0414
1) Drive at lower speeds during the nightthan in the daytime, as the visual range
is restricted at night.
2) Avoid overtaking other vehicles at night.
Darkness bothers your sense of speed
and hinders your judgment of vehicle-
to-vehicle distance.
74LHM0415
3) Don’t use headlights on high beamunless its use is inevitable. It may
cause visual impairment to the driver of
the oncoming vehicle or the vehicle
ahead of you, which may cause an
accident.
4) Always keep the window glasses clean.
Don’t operate the windshield wiper
when the windshield glass is dry else
the wiper blade and glass may get
damaged.
74LHM0416
Margin for SafetyIt is important to allow yourself a margin for
safety during driving so that you can cope
with erroneous or unexpected driving of
other drivers. For that, observe the follow-
ing.
Drive at a safe speed.
Maintain a sufficient distance betweenyour vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Don’t force yourself to overtake other
vehicles.
Don’t accelerate suddenly, steer sharply or stop suddenly.
Keep ample gaps between driving schedules.
Observe traffic rules and regulations.ConclusionA perfect driver does not exist. The
endeavour of every motorist should be to
strive for perfection. Safety consciousness
not only ensures your safety and the safety
of other road users, it also helps reduce
the wear and tear on your vehicle, length-
ens its life, gives better fuel efficiency and
ensures a comfortable driving experience.
Follow the do’s and dont’s listed, and
driving will never be the same again.

adjust the temperature selector to the
HOT end, and
adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.MaintenanceIf you do not use the air conditioner for a
long period, such as during winter, it may
not give the best performance when you
start using it again. To help maintain opti-
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.

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.

Six stations in good reception will automat-
ically be stored to the Preset buttons (6) in
order, starting from a station whose fre-
quency is the lowest.
NOTE:
Auto store can be released by pressing
AST button (7) while auto store is under
way.
When the auto store is performed, the
station previously stored in the memory
at the position is overwritten.
When there are fewer than 6 stations
that can be stored even if 1 round of
auto store operation is performed, no
station will be stored at the remaining
Preset buttons (6).
6 stations can be preset for FM1 and
FM2 in common, and 6 stations for AM
in auto store mode.
Auto store mode on/off
Press the AST button (7).
Each time the button is pressed, the mode
is switched as follows:Radio Reception
Radio reception can be affected by environ-
ment, atmospheric conditions, or radio sig-
nal’s power and distance from the station.
Nearby mountains and buildings may inter-
fere or deflect radio reception, causing poor
reception. Poor reception or radio static can
also be caused by electric current from
overhead wires or high voltage power lines.Listening to a CD

Notes on MP3/WMA/AACWhat is MP3?
MP3 (MPEG audio layer3) is an audio
compression format that has become the
standard format among PC users. Its
merit is that the original audio data is
compressed to approximately 1/10 and
high sound quality is maintained. This
means that it is possible to store the data
of approximately 10 music CDs on a sin-
gle CD-R/RW disc, which in turn makes
it possible to play music for a long time
without having to change the disc.
What is WMA?
An abbreviation of “Windows Media
Audio,” WMA is an audio compression
format developed by Microsoft.
WMA files for which the DRM (Digital
Rights Management) function is ON can-
not be played.
Windows Media
TM
and the Windows
®
logo are trademarks or registered trade-
marks of Microsoft Corporation in the
United States and other countries.
What is AAC?
An abbreviation of “Advanced Audio
Coding,” AAC is an audio compression
format used by MPEG2 and MPEG4.Points to remember when making MP3/
WMA/AAC files Common
High bit rate and high sampling fre-
quency are recommended for high qual-
ity sounds.
Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not
recommended. Selecting VBR may
cause display of incorrect playing time
and jumpiness of playback.
Playback sound quality varies depending
on the encoding environment. For
details, refer to the user manual of the
encoding software and the writing soft-
ware in use.
Recording MP3/WMA/AAC files on a CD
media
It is recommended not to write both CD-
DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC files on a
disc.
If both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC
files are on the same disc, tracks may
not be played in the correct order or
some tracks may not be played at all.
When storing both MP3 data and WMA
data on the same disc, sort and place
them in different folders. Play time

NOTICE
Never assign the “.mp3”, “.wma”, or

it is not in the MP3/WMA/AAC format
file. Failure to observe this may result
in damage to the speaker due to
noise production.

Battery InstallationInstall a lithium battery (CR2025) with the
poles facing the correct direction.
Battery replacement timing
When battery power is depleted, the but-
ton may not be operable. If the remote
controller does not operate, replace the
battery and check the operation.
Caution on battery
Be sure to follow the instructions to pre-
vent battery leakage, over-heating, igni-
tion or explosion.If battery leakage has occurred, wipe the
container first then install a new battery. If
the battery solution contacts the skin, wash
off with water completely.
Caution on Remote Controller
Do not leave the remote controller in an
area exposed to direct sunlight, such as
on the dashboard or steering wheel. The
remote controller may deform because
of the heat, (Be especially careful of the
dashboard exposed to direct sunlight in
the summer, as it will become extremely
hot).
When the vehicle is parked in an area
exposed to direct sunlight, Ensure the
remote controller is placed in an area not
exposed to direct sunlight. For example:
Glove box.
Under direct sunlight, signal reception
from the remote controller weakens. If
this happens, hold the remote controller
close to the signal receptor on the front
panel.
WA R N I N G
Do not expose the battery to flame.
Do not short circuit, disassemble,
or heat the battery.
Do not charge the battery.
Use the specified type battery.
Keep the button-shaped battery
away from children to prevent acci-
dental swallowing.
If the battery is swallowed, contact a
doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Install the battery with the poles
facing the correct direction.
When not in use for a long period
of time, or if the battery is dead,
remove the battery from the remote
controller.
