Never attempt to adjust the driver’s
seat or seatback while driving. The
seat or seatback could move unex-
pectedly, causing loss of control.
Check that the driver’s seat and seat-
back are properly adjusted before
you start driving.
WA R N I N G
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.
WA R N I N G
All seatbacks should always be in an
upright position when driving, or seat
belt effectiveness may be reduced.
Seat belts are designed to offer maxi-
mum protection when seatbacks are
in the upright position.
WA R N I N G
Do not place any object under the
front passenger’s seat. If an object
becomes caught under the front pas-
senger’s seat, the following may
occur.
• The seat will not be latched.
• The lithium-ion battery, located under the front passenger’s seat in
a model equipped with ENG A-
STOP system, will be damaged.
WA R N I N G
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.

Improperly using the seat heater can
be hazardous. An occupant can suf-
fer burns even if the heating tempera-
ture is fairly low, if the occupant
wears thin pants, a thin skirt or
shorts and leaves the heater on for
long periods.
Avoid using the seat heater for these
occupants:
• People who have reduced feeling intheir legs, including the elderly or
those with certain disabilities.
• Small children or anyone with sen-
sitive skin.
• People who are asleep or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs
which make them tired.
NOTICE
To avoid damaging the heater ele-
ment:
• Do not subject the front seats toheavy impacts, such as children
jumping on them.
• Do not cover the seat with any insulating materials such as blan-
kets or cushions.

3) Pull the release lever on the top of seat,
and fold the seatback forward. To return the seat to the normal position,
follow the procedure below.EXAMPLEEXAMPLE
NOTICE
After folding the
rear seatback for-
ward, do not allow any foreign mate-
rial to enter the lock opening. This
may cause damage to the inside of
the lock and prevent the seatback
from being locked securely.
WA R N I N G
If you need to carry cargo in the pas-
senger compartment with the rear
seatback folded forward, secure the
cargo or it may be thrown about,
causing injury. Never pile cargo
higher than the seatbacks.
CAUTION
When returning the rear seatback to
the normal position, be careful that
your finger is not caught between the
lock and the striker.

Child restraint
80JC016
Booster seat
80JC008
SUZUKI highly recommends that you use
a child restraint system to restrain infants
and small children. Many different types of
child restraint systems are available; check
that the restraint syst em you select meets
applicable safety standards.
All child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats either by seat
belts (lap belts or the lap portion of lap-
shoulder belts) or by special rigid lower
anchor bars built into the seat. Whenever
possible, SUZUKI recommends that child
restraint systems be installed on the rear
seat. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in
rear seating positions than in front seating
positions.
(For Countries applied for UN Regula-
tion No.16)
When purchasing a child restraint and
install it to your SUZUKI vehicle, refer to
the information about suitability for child
restraints shown in “Child restraint system
for countries applied for UN Regulation
No.16” in this section.
NOTE:
Observe any statutory regulation about
child restraints.

EXAMPLEEXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
(Vehicle without the front passenger
air bag deactivation system)
Do not install a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the passenger’s front air bag
inflates, a child in a rear-facing child
restraint could be killed or severely
injured. The back of a rear-facing
child restraint would be too close to
the inflating air bag.
