Battery
52KM160
Your vehicle is equipped with a battery that
requires infrequent maintenance. You will
never have to add water. You should, how-
ever, periodically check the battery, battery
terminals and battery hold-down bracket
for corrosion. Remove corrosion using a
stiff brush and ammonia mixed with water,
or baking soda mixed with water. After
removing corrosion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven for
a month or longer, disconnect the cable
from the negative terminal of the battery to
help prevent discharge.Battery replacement54P000704
NOTE:
(For diesel engine model)
To approach the battery, push the locks
and remove the suction pipe (1).
WA R N I N G
• Batteries produce flammable
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working near the battery.
• When checking or servicing the
battery, disconnect the negative
cable. Be careful not to cause a
short circuit by allowing metal
objects to contact the battery posts
and the vehicle at the same time.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam-
age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
in “EMERGENCY SERVICE” sec-
tion if it is necessary to jump-start
your vehicle.
• Diluted sulfuric acid spilled from
battery can cause blindness or
severe burns. Use proper eye pro-
tection and gloves. Flush eyes or
body with ample water and get
medical care immediately if suf-
fered. Keep batteries out of reach
of children.

To remove the battery:
1) Disconnect the negative cable (2).
2) Disconnect the positive cable (3).
3) Remove the bracket bolt (4) and
remove the bracket (5).
4) Remove the battery.
To install the battery:
1) Install the battery in the reverse order of
removal.
2) Tighten the bracket bolt and battery
cables securely.
NOTE:
When the battery is disconnected, some of
the vehicle’s functions will be initialized
and/or deactivated.
These functions must be required to reset
after the battery is reconnected.(Battery label)
54P000733
(6) Crossed-out wheeled bin symbol
(7) Chemical symbol of “Pb”The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (5)
located on the battery label indicates that
the used battery should be collected sepa-
rately from ordinary household trash.
The chemical symbol of “Pb” (6) indicates
the battery contains more than 0.004%
lead.
By ensuring the used battery is disposed
of or recycled correctly, you will help pre-
vent potential negative consequences for
the environment and human health, which
could otherwise be caused by inappropri-
ate trash handling of the battery. The recy-
cling of materials will help to conserve
natural resources. For more detailed infor-
mation about disposing of or recycling the
used battery, consult your SUZUKI dealer.

Batteries contain toxic substances
including sulfuric acid and lead. They
could have potential negative conse-
quences for the environment and
human health. Used batteries must
be disposed of or recycled according
to applicable rules or regulations and
must not be disposed of with ordi-
nary household trash. Make sure not
to tip over the battery when you
remove it from the vehicle. Other-
wise, sulfuric acid could run out and
you might get injury.

Fuses
Your vehicle has three types of fuses, as
described below:
Main fuse
The main fuse takes current directly from
the battery.
Primary fuses
These fuses are between the main fuse
and individual fuses, and are for electrical
load groups.
Individual fuses
These fuses are for individual electrical cir-
cuits.
To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller pro-
vided in the fuse box.

The main fuse, primary fuses and some of the
individual fuses are located in the engine
compartment. If the main fuse blows, no elec-
trical component will function. If a primary fuse
blows, no electrical component in the corre-
sponding load group will function. When
replacing the main fuse, a primary fuse or an
individual fuse, use a genuine SUZUKI
replacement.To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller pro-
vided in the fuse box. The amperage of each
fuse is shown in the back of the fuse box
cover. (9) 30 A Radiator fan 2

If the main fuse or a primary fuse
blows, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized SUZUKI dealer.
Always use a genuine SUZUKI
replacement. Never use a substitute
such as a wire even for a temporary
repair, or extensive electrical damage
and a fire can result.

WA R N I N G
Always replace a blown fuse with a
fuse of the correct amperage. Never
use a substitute such as aluminum
foil or wire to replace a blown fuse. If
you replace a fuse and the new one
blows in a short period of time, you
may have a major electrical problem.
Have your vehicle inspected immedi-
ately by your SUZUKI dealer.

Open the engine hood. Disconnect the
coupler by pushing the lock release. Turn
the bulb holder counterclockwise and
remove it.
CAUTION
• Light bulbs can be hot enough to
burn your finger right after turning
off lights. This is true especially for
halogen headlight bulbs. Replace
the bulbs after they become cool
enough.
• The headlight bulbs are filled with
pressurized halogen gas. They can
burst and injure you if they are hit
or dropped. Handle them carefully.
• To avoid injury by sharp-edged
parts of the body, wear gloves and
a long-sleeved shirt when replacing
light bulbs.
NOTICE
The oils from your skin may cause a
halogen bulb to overheat and burst
when the lights are on. Grasp a new
bulb with a clean cloth.
NOTICE
Frequent bulb replacement indicates
the need for an inspection of the elec-
trical system. This should be carried
out by your SUZUKI dealer.
