1-1FUEL RECOMMENDATION
75RM4-01E
Fuel recommendationGasoline engine
75RM304
To avoid damaging the catalytic converter,
you must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher (or
95 or higher if it is stated on the fuel filler
lid), which comply with the European stan-
dard EN228. These vehicles are also iden-
tified by a label attached near the fuel filler
pipe that states: “UNLEADED FUEL
ONLY”, “NUR UNVERBLEITES BENZIN”,
“ENDAST BLYFRI BENSIN” or “SOLO
GASOLINA SIN PLOMO”.
If a “RON 95” label is attached, you must
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
number (RON) of 95 or higher. Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in certain areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% etha-
nol ( ). Check that this gasoline-ethanol
blend has octane ratings no lower than
those recommended for the gasoline.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
use a gasoline-alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded gasoline contain-
ing no alcohol.
Gasoline containing MTBE
(where legally available)
Unleaded gasoline containing MTBE
(methyl tertiary butyl
ether) may be used in
your vehicle if the MTBE content is not
greater than 15%. This oxygenated fuel
does not contain alcohol.
NOTE:
• For the fuel recommendation of Chile andPanama models, refer to “For Chile and
Panama” in the “SUPPLEMENT” section.
• For the fuel recommendation of Mexico models, refer to “For Mexico” in the
“SUPPLEMENT” section.
• For the fuel recommendation of Argen- tina models, refer to “For Argentina” in
the “SUPPLEMENT” section.EXAMPLE
or
NOTICE
The fuel tank has an air space to allow
for fuel expansion in hot weather. If
you continue to add fuel after the filler
nozzle has automatically shut off or
an initial blowback occurs, the air
chamber will become full. Exposure
to heat when fully fuelled in this man-
ner will result in leakage due to fuel
expansion. To prevent such fuel leak-
age, stop filling after the filler nozzle
has automatically shut off, or when
initial vent blowback occurs, if using
an alternative non-automatic system.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

Keys
54G489
Your vehicle comes with a pair of identical
keys. Keep the spare key in a safe place.
One key can open all of the locks on the
vehicle.
The key identification number is stamped
on a metal tag provided with the keys or on
the keys. Keep the tag (if equipped) in a
safe place. If you lose your keys, you will
need this number to have new keys made.
Write the number below for your future ref-
erence.
Immobilizer system This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
The engine can be started only with your
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key
or keyless push start system remote con-
troller, which has an electronic identifica-
tion code programmed into it. The key or
remote controller communicates the identi-
fication code to the vehicle when the igni-
tion switch is turned to “ON” position or the
engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to ON. If you need to make
spare keys or remote controllers, see your
SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle must be pro-
grammed with the correct identification
code for the spare. A key made by an ordi-
nary locksmith will not work.
80JM122
If the immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light blinks when the ignition
switch is in “ON” position or the ignition
mode is ON, the engine will not start. NOTE:
• If the immobilizer/keyless push start sys-
tem warning light blinks or comes on, a
message may be shown on the informa-
tion display.
• This immobilizer system is maintenance-
free.
For vehicles without a keyless push
start system
If this light blinks, tur n the ignition switch to
“LOCK” position, and then turn it back to
“ON” position.
If the light still blinks after the ignition
switch is turned back to “ON” position,
there may be something wrong with your
key or with the immobilizer system. Ask
your SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.

operating any of the switches (2), (3), (4)
or (5). To restore normal operation, release
the lock switch by pushing it again.
NOTE:
If you drive with one of the rear windows
open, you may hear a loud sound caused
by air vibration. To reduce the sound, open
the driver’s or front passenger’s window, or
narrow the rear window opening.
Pinching prevention function (if equipped)If the driver’s window has the AUTO-UP
feature, the driver’s window is also
equipped with the pinching prevention
function. This function detects a foreign
object that is caught in the window as it is
being closed by AUTO-UP feature, which
allows you to close the window without
holding the window switch in UP position,
and stops the window from closing to pre-
vent damage. NOTE:
Even if you cannot close the window by the
AUTO-UP feature because there may be
something wrong with the pinching preven-
tion function, you can close the window by
holding the window switch in UP position.
If you drive in extreme off-road condition,
the pinching prevention function may oper-
ate accidentally because the window
reacts to vehicle jolting.
Pinching prevention function initializa-
tion
When you disconnect and reconnect the
lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the
function will be deactivated. In this condi-
tion, the AUTO-DOWN feature will be
deactivated, while the AUTO-UP feature
may remain activated. The pinching pre-
vention function needs to be initialized.
WA R N I N G
• You should always lock the pas-
senger’s window operation when
there are children in the vehicle.
Children can be seriously injured if
they get part of their body caught
by the window during operation.
• To avoid injuring an occupant by window entrapment, check that no
part of the occupant’s body such as
hands or head is in the path of the
electric windows when closing
them.
• Always remove the ignition key or
take the keyless push start system
remote controller with you when
leaving the vehicle even only for a
short time. Also do not leave chil-
dren alone in a parked vehicle.
Unattended children could use the
electric window switches and get
trapped by the window.
WA R N I N G
To avoid injuring an occupant by win-
dow entrapment, check that no part
of the occupant’s body such as
hands or head is in the path of the
electric window when closing it.
This function may not detect an
object due to the size, hardness, or
position of the object being caught in
the closing window.
CAUTION
• The pinching prevention functiondoes not operate while you are
holding the window switch in UP
position.
• The pinching prevention function
may not detect an object caught in
the window just before the window
is fully closed.

Seat belts and child restraint systems
65D231S65D606
WA R N I N G
Wear your seat belts at all times.
WA R N I N G
An air bag supplements or adds to
the frontal crash protection offered
by seat belts. The driver and all pas-
sengers must be properly restrained
by fastening seat belts at all times,
whether or not an air bag is mounted
at their seating position, to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a crash.
WA R N I N G
Do not modify, remove, disassemble
seat belts. Doing so may prevent
them from functioning properly and
cause the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash.
WA R N I N G
• Never allow persons to ride in the
cargo area of a vehicle. In the event
of an accident, there is a much
greater risk of injury for persons
who are not riding in a seat with
their seat belt sec urely fastened.
• Seat belts should always be
adjusted as follows:
– the lap portion of the belt shouldbe worn low across the pelvis,
not across the waist.
– the shoulder straps should be worn on the outside shoulder
only, and never under the arm.
– the shoulder straps should be away from your face and neck,
but not falling off your shoulder. (Continued)
Above the pelvis

(For models with front passenger air bag
deactivation system)
Whenever possible, SUZUKI recom-
mends that child restraint systems be
installed on the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in rear seating posi-
tions than in front seating positions.
• If you must install the child restraint sys-
tem on the front passe nger’s seat, follow
instructions below.
– Deactivate the front passenger’s front air bag by the front passenger air bag
deactivation system.
– Slide the seat to t he most rear position
by the seat position adjustment lever.
– Adjust the seatba ck at the 5th step
inclined position (counted from most
upright position) w ith the seatback
angle adjustment lever. – If your vehicle is equipped with the
seat height adjustment lever, raise the
seat to the uppermost position by the
seat height adjustment lever.
Install your child restraint system accord-
ing 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 direc-
tions to check that it is securely installed.
When you put your child in the child
restraint system, appr opriately slide the
front seat forward not to touch a part of
your child’s body.
CAUTION
Adjust the height of the rear head
restraint or remove it for fitting the
child restraint, as necessary. How-
ever, if a booster cushion not
equipped with the head restraint is
fitted, the rear seat head restraint
should not be removed. If the rear
head restraint is removed for fitting
the child restraint, you need to install
it again after removing the child
restraint.
If the child restraint is fitted improp-
erly, a child sitting in it could be
injured in a crash.
