(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

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.

Install the ISOFIX type child restraint sys­tem according to the instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer. After installation, try moving the child restraint system in all directions especially forward to check that connecting bars are securely latched to the anchorages.

Your vehicle is equipped with the top tether anchorages. Use the top tether strap of the child restraint according to the instructions provided by the child restraint system man­ufacturer.
Here is a general instruction:
A CAUTION
If your vehicle is equipped with the head restraint, adjust the height of the rear head restraint or remove it for fitting the child restraint, as nec­essary. However, if a booster cushion not equipped with the head restraint is fitted, the head restraint should not be removed. If the 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 improp­erly, a child sitting in it could be injured in a collision.
NOTE: Stow the removed head restraint in the lug­gage comparlment so it will not cause inconvenience to the occupants.

Installation of child restraint with
top tether
78RB02021
Some child restraint systems require the use of a top tether strap. Top tether anchor­age brackets are provided in your vehicle at the locations shown in the illustrations. The number of the top tether anchorage brackets provided in your vehicle depends on the vehicle specification. Install the child restraint system as follows:
1) Secure the child restraint on the rear seat using the procedure described above for securing a restraint system that does not require a top tether strap. 2) Hook the top tether strap to the top tether anchorage bracket and tighten the top tether strap according to the instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer. Attach the top tether strap to the correspond­ing top tether anchorage bracket located directly behind the child restraint. Do not attach the top tether strap to the luggage restraint loops (if equipped).
A WARNING
Do not attach the child restraint top tether strap to the luggage restraint loops (if equipped). Incorrectly attached top tether strap will reduce the intended effectiveness of the child restraint system.

If the passenger's front airbag 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 airbag.

Tow bars
Only use a tow bar that is designed to attach to the chassis of your vehicle, and a hitch that is designed to bolt to this tow bar. We recommend that you use a genuine SUZUKI tow bar kit (available as an option), or equivalent.
A WARNING
Never use a tow bar which attaches to the axle or the bumper of your vehicle.
Safety chains
Always attach safety chains between your vehicle and the trailer. Cross safety chains under the nose of the trailer so that the nose will not drop to the road if the trailer becomes separated from the tow bar. Fol­low the manufacturer's recommendation for attaching safety chains. Always leave just enough slack to permit full turning. Never allow safety chains to drag on the road.
A WARNING
Never attach safety chains to the bumper of your vehicle. Secure con­nections so that they cannot come loose.
-----------------------
Trailer lights
Check that your trailer is equipped with lights which meet local requirements. Always check for the proper operation of all trailer lights before you start to tow.
A WARNING
Never connect trailer lights directly into your vehicle's electrical system, or electrical system damage may occur.
Brakes
A WARNING
If the trailer is equipped with the brakes, follow all instructions pro­vided by the manufacturer. Never connect to the brake system of your vehicle and never take an electrical supply directly from the wiring har­
ness.
BEFORE DRIVING
Tyres
A WARNING
When towing a trailer, it is very important for your vehicle and trailer to have properly inflated tyres. Your vehicle's tyres should be inflated to the pressures listed on your vehicle's tyre information label. The tyres should be inflated to the laden pres­sures. Inflate trailer tyres according to the specifications provided by the trailer manufacturer.
Mirrors
Check if your vehicle's mirrors meet local requirements for mirrors used on towing vehicles. If they do not, you must install the required mirrors before you tow.
