Floor mats
72M10201
To prevent the driver’s side floor mat from
sliding forward and possibly interfering with
the operation of the pedals, genuine
SUZUKI floor mats are recommended.
Whenever you put the driver’s side floor
mat back in the vehicle after it has been
removed, hook the floor mat grommets to
the fasteners and position the floor mat
properly in the footwell.
When you replace the floor mats in your
vehicle with a differ ent type such as all-
weather floor mats, we highly recommend
to use genuine SUZUKI floor mats for
proper fitting.

observe the instructions and precautions in
this section and provided with the roof
rack.

your SUZUKI dealer. Install the attach-
ments properly and securely according
to the instructions provided. Do not
mount cargo directly on the roof panel.
The cargo can damage the roof panel. • The gross weight of the roof rack plus
cargo must not exceed the loading
capacity.

Also, do not let the gross vehicle weight
(fully loaded vehicle including driver,
passengers, cargo, roof load and trailer
tongue weight) exceed the Gross Vehi-

“SPECIFICATIO NS” section.
• Mount and secure the cargo onto the roof rack properly according to the
instructions provided. Stow the heaviest
items at the bottom and distribute the
cargo as evenly as possible.

Otherwise, these items could block your
view.
• Secure the front and rear ends of long
items such as wood panels and surf-
boards, to both the front and rear of the
vehicle. You should protect the painted
surfaces of the vehicle from scuffing
caused by tie-down ropes.
• Check periodically that the roof rack is
securely installed and free from damage.
WA R N I N G
Do not carry items on top of the lug-
gage compartment cover, even if they
are small and light. Objects on top of
the cover could be thrown about in
an accident, causing injury, or could
