Take extreme care when working on
your vehicle to prevent accidental
injury. Carefully observe the follow-
ing precautions:
• To prevent damage or unintendedactivation of the air bag system or
seat belt pretensioner system, check
that the lead-acid battery is discon-
nected and the ignition switch has
been in “LOCK” position or the igni-
tion mode has been LOCK (OFF) for
at least 90 seconds before perform-
ing any electrical service work on
your SUZUKI vehicle. Do not touch
air bag system components, seat
belt pretensioner system compo-
nents or wires.
The wires are wrapped with yellow
tape or yellow tubing, and the cou-
plers are yellow for easy identifica-
tion.
• Do not leave the engine running in garages or other confined areas. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• When the engine is running, keep
hands, clothing, tools, and other
objects away from the fan and drive
belt. Even though the fan may not
be moving, it can automatically
turn on without warning.
• When it is necessary to perform
service work with the engine run-
ning, check that the parking brake
is set fully and the transaxle is in
Neutral (for manual transaxle or
Auto Gear Shift vehicles) or Park
(for CVT vehicles).
• Do not touch ignition wires or other ignition system parts when starting
the engine or when the engine is
running, or you could receive an
electric shock.
•Be careful not to touch a hot engine, exhaust manifold and
pipes, muffler, radiator and water
hoses.
• Do not allow smoking, sparks, or flames around fuel or the battery.
Flammable fumes are present.
• Do not get under your vehicle if it is supported only with the portable
jack provided in your vehicle.
• Be careful not to cause accidental short circuits between the positive
and negative battery terminals. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• Keep used oil, coolant, and other
fluids away from children and pets.
Dispose of used fluids properly;
never pour them on the ground,
into sewers, etc.
