EMERGENCY SERVICE
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light does not go off or the temperature indication does not come down to within the normal, acceptable range:
1) Turn off the engine and check that the water pump belt and pulleys are not damaged or slipping. If any abnormality is found, correct it. 2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir. If it is found to be lower than "LOW" line, check radiator, water pump, radiator hoses and heater hoses for leakage. If leakage that may cause overheating is found, do not run the engine until these problems have been corrected. 3) If leakage is not found, carefully add coolant to the reservoir and then the radiator, if necessary. (Refer to "Engine coolant" in "INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE" section.)
NOTE: If engine overheats and you are not sure what to do, contact a SUZUKI dealer.

A WARNING
• It is hazardous to remove the radiator cap when the water temperature is high, because scalding fluid and steam may be blown out under pressure. The cap should only be taken off when the coolant temperature has lowered. To help prevent personal injury, keep hands, tools and clothing away from the engine cooling fan and air-conditioner fan. These electric fans can automatically turn on without warning.
are spilled or leaked, clean and dry the
area immediately.
Park your vehicle in a dry, well-venti
lated area Do not park your vehicle in a damp, poorlyventilated area. If you often wash your vehicle in the garage and place it there in wet condition, your garage may be damp. The high humidity in the garage may cause or accelerate corrosion. A wet vehicle may corrode even in a heated garage if the ventilation is poor.
Use mud and gravel shields The use of mud and gravel shields will help protect your vehicle, especially if you frequently drive on gravel or salted roads. Full-size shields, which extend as close to the road as is practical, are the best. The fittings for such shields should also be corrosion resistant. Please check with your SUZUKI dealer for information on these
shields.
A WARNING
Do not apply additional undercoating or rust preventive coating on or around exhaust system components such as the catalytic converter and exhaust pipes. A fire could be started if the undercoating substance
becomes overheated.
APPEARANCE CARE
Vehicle cleaning
A WARNING
When cleaning the interior or exterior of the vehicle, do not use flammable solvents such as lacquer thinners, gasoline and benzene. Also, do not use cleaning materials such as bleaches and strong household detergents. The materials could cause personal injury or damage to
the vehicle.

NOTICE
Do not use chemical products that contain silicon to wipe electrical components such as the air conditioning system, audio1 navigation system, or other switches. These will cause damage to the components.
NOTICE
Liquid such as liquid aromatics, soft drinks or juice may cause discoloration, wrinkles, and cracking to resin-based parts and textiles. Immediately wipe it dry with tissue paper or a soft cloth. Do not leave leather products with color, fur or vinyl products, etc. in your vehicle for long periods. It may cause discoloration or deterioration of interior.
Cleaning exterior
NOTICE
It is important that your vehicle be kept clean and free from dirt. Failure to keep your vehicle clean may result in fading of the paint or corrosion to various parts of the vehicle body.
Caring for aluminum wheels
NOTE: Do not use an acidic or alkaline detergent, or a cleaner containing petroleum solvent to wash aluminum wheels. These types of cleaner will cause permanent spots, disco/oration and cracks on finished surfaces and damage to center caps. Do not use a bristle brush and soap containing an abrasive material. These will damage finished surfaces.
APPEARANCE CARE
Washing
A WARNING
Never attempt to wash and wax your vehicle with the engine running. When cleaning the underside of the body and fender, where there may be sharp-edged parts, wear gloves and a long-sleeved shirt to protect your hands and arms from being cut. After washing your vehicle, care
fully test the brakes before driving to check that they have maintained their normal effectiveness.

Built date
Built date is located on Vehicle Identification plate. "Built date" means -the calendar month and the year in which the body shell and power train sub-assemblies are conjoined and the vehicle is driven or moved from the production line.
Child restraint
A WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.

Installation of child restraint with
top tether anchorage
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 illustration. The number of the top tether anchorage brackets provided in your vehicle depends on the vehicle specification.

1) Remove the luggage box (1 ). 2) 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. 3) 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 54Gm the top tether strap to the corresponding top tether anchorage bracket located on the floor of the rear cargo area.
4) When routing the top tether strap, pass the top tether strap as shown in the illustration. (Refer to "Head restraints" section for details on how to adjust the height of head restraint or remove it.) 5) Check that cargo does not interfere with routing of the top tether strap.
NOTICE
When installing a child restraint system to the rear seat, adjust the front seat position so that the front seat does not interfere with the child restraint system.
SUPPLEMENT
Rear-facing child restraint
58MS030
A WARNING
Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it.
A WARNING
Do not install a rear-facing child restraint in the front passenger's seat. 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.
10-2
SUPPLEMENT
If you must use a front-facing child restraint in the front passenger's seat, be sure to move the front passenger's seat as far back as possible. Please refer to "Seat belts and child restraint systems" in the "BEFORE DRIVING" section for details on securing your child.

Seat belt warning
Follow this warning as well as the instruction for seat belt in this book.
A WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body, and should be worn low across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided. • Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as possible, consistent with comfort, to provide the protection for which they have been designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded to the wearer. • Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water. The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged. (Continued)
A WARNING
(Continued) • It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if damage to the assembly is not obvious. Belts should not be worn with straps twisted. Each belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a child being carried on the occupant's lap,
In the case where a "Seat Belt Assembly'' incorporates an "Automatic Length Adjusting and Locking Retractor' or an "Emergency Locking Retractor'.
A WARNING
No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack. Referring to the SEAT BELT instruction in this book, adjust the seat belt so that the lap and sash portions of the Seat Belt Assembly fit as firmly as possible consistent with comfort.
