2018 SUZUKI JIMNY seat adjustment

Front seats
A WARNING
Failure to take the following precau­tions may result in the driver's side floor mat interfering with the pedals and causing a loss of vehicle control or an accident. Check that the floor mat grommets are hooked to the fasteners. Never place additional floor mats on top of the existing floor mat.
Seat adjustment
A WARNING
Never attempt to adjust the driver's seat or seatback while driving. The seat or seatback could move unex­pectedly, causing loss of control. Check that the driver's seat and seat­back are properly adjusted before you start driving.
A WARNING
To avoid excessive seat belt slack, which reduces the effectiveness of the seat belts as a safety device, check that the seats are adjusted before the seat belts are fastened.
A WARNING
All seatbacks should always be in an upright position when driving, or seat belt effectiveness may be reduced. Seat belts are designed to offer maxi­mum protection when seatbacks are in the upright position.
A WARNING
Do not place any object under the front seat. If an object becomes caught under the front seat, the fol­lowing may occur. • The seat will not be latched.
A WARNING
Do not leave cigarette lighters or spray cans on the floor. If a cigarette lighter or spray can is on the floor, it may light accidentally when luggage is loaded or the seat is adjusted, causing a fire.

(For models with front passenger airbag deactivation system) Whenever possible, SUZUKI recom­mends that child restraint systems be installed on . th_e rear seat. According to· accident stat1st1cs, children are safer when ~roperly restrained in rear seating posi­tions than in front seating positions. • If you must install the child restraint sys­tem on the front passenger's seat follow instructions below. ' -D_eactivate the front passenger's front airbag by the front passenger airbag d~activation system (if equipped). -Slide the seat to the most rear position by the seat position adjustment lever. -If there is a gap or space between the child restraint and the seatback, adjust the seatback angle in order to install the child restraint system properly.
Install your child restraint system accord­ing to the instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer.
Check that the seat belt is securely latched. Move the child restraint system in all direc­tions to check that it is securely installed. When you put your child in the child restraint system, appropriately slide the front seat forward not to touch a part of your child's body.
Installation with ISOFIX type
anchorages
78RB02020
Your vehicle is equipped with the lower anchorages in the rear seat outboard seat­ing positions for securing a ISOFIX type of child restraints with the connecting bars. The lower anchorages are located where the rear of the seat cushion meets the bot­tom of the seatback.
A WARNING
Install the ISOFIX type of child restraint(s) in the only outboard seat­ing positions, not in the central posi­tion for the rear seat.

The pretensioner is located in each front seat belt retractor and each rear seat belt retractor in outboard seating position. The pretensioner tightens the seat belt so the belt fits the occupant's body more snugly in the event of a frontal or side collision. The retractors will remain locked after the pre­tensioners are activated. Upon activation, some noise will occur and some smoke may be released. These conditions are not harmful and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
The driver and all passengers must be properly restrained by fastening seat belts at all times, whether or not a pretensioner is equipped at their seating position, to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision.
Sit fully back in the seat; sit up straight; do not lean forward or sideways. Adjust the belt so the lap portion of the belt is worn low across the pelvis, not across the waist. Please refer to "Seat adjustment" section and the instructions and precautions about the seat belts in this "Seat belts and child restraint systems" section for details on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.
Please note that the pretensioners along with the airbags will activate in severe fron­tal or side collisions. They are not designed to activate in rear impacts, roll­overs, or minor frontal side collisions. The pretensioners can be activated only once. If the pretensioners are activated (that is, if the airbags are activated), have the pre­tensioner system serviced by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
If AIRBAG light on the instrument cluster does not blink or come on briefiy when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" position, stays on for more than 1 O seconds, or comes on while driving, the pretensioner system or the airbag system may not work properly. Have both systems inspected by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
Service on or around the pretensioner sys­tem components or wiring must be per­formed only by a SUZUKI dealer who is specially trained. Improper service could result in unintended activation of preten­sioners or could render the pretensioner inoperative. Either of these two conditions may result in personal injury.
To prevent damage or unintended activa­tion of the pretensioners, check that the lead-acid battery is disconnected and the ignition switch has been in "LOCK" position for at least 90 seconds before performing any electrical service work on your SUZUKI vehicle.
Do not touch pretensioner system compo­nents or wiring. The wires are wrapped with yellow tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are yellow. When scrapping your SUZUKI vehicle, ask a SUZUKI dealer, body repair shop, or scrap yard for assis­tance.

FOR SAFE DRIVING
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper po_sition for maximum protection when an airbag infiates. Adjust your seat as far back as possible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. Sit fully back in your seat; sit up straight; do not lean over the steering wheel or dashboard. Front occu­pants should not lean on or sleep against the door. Refer to "Seat adjustment" sec­tion and "Seat belts and child restraint sys­tems" section in this section for details on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.

A WARNING
• The driver should not lean over the steering wheel. The front passen­ger should not rest his or her body against the dashboard, or other­wise get too close to the dash­board. For vehicles with side airbags and side curtain airbag, occupants should not lean on or sleep against the door. In these sit­uations, the out-of-position occu­pant would be too close to an inflating airbag, and may suffer severe injury. • Do not attach any objects to, or place any objects over, the steering wheel or dashboard. Do not place any objects between the airbag and the driver or front passenger. These objects may interfere with airbag operation or may be pro­pelled by the airbag in the event of a collision. Also, these objects may move when you start moving vehi­cle or while vehicle is moving, they may interfere with driver's view or safe driving. In each conditions may cause severe injury. (Continued)
