.A. WARNING
Take extreme care when working on· your vehicle to prevent accidental injury. Carefully observe the following precautions: • To prevent damage or unintended activation of the airbag system or seat belt pretensioner system, 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 airbag system components, seat belt pretensioner system components or wires. The wires are wrapped with yellow tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are yellow for easy identification. Do not leave the engine running in garages or other confined areas. (Continued)

.A. WARNING
(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 transmission is in Neutral (for manual transmission vehicles) or Park (for automatic transmission 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.
