FOR SAFE DRIVING
58MS030
A WARNING
(Vehicle without the front passenger airbag deactivation system) 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.
1-19
A WARNING
(Vehicle with the front passenger air­bag deactivation system) When using a child restraint system on the front passenger's seat, the front passenger's airbag system must be deactivated; otherwise deployment of the front passenger's airbag could result in the death or serious injury of the child.
A WARNING
If you install a child restraint system in the rear seat, slide the front seat far enough forward so that the child's feet do not touch the front seatback. This will help avoid injury to the child in the event of an accident.

(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
78RB02020
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.

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.

Seat belt pretensioner system
A WARNING
This section describes your SUZUKI vehicle's seat belt pretensioner sys­tem. Read and follow all these instructions carefully to minimize your risk of severe injury or death.
To determine if your vehicle is equipped with a seat belt pretensioner system at the front or rear seating positions, check the label on the seat belt at the bottom part. If the letters "p" and/or "PRE" appear as illus­trated, your vehicle is equipped with the seat belt pretensioner system. You can use the pretensioner seat belts in the same manner as ordinary seat belts. Read this section and "Supplemental restraint system (airbags)" section to learn more about the pretensioner system.
The seat belt pretensioner system works with the supplemental restraint system (air­bags). The crash sensors and the elec­tronic controller of the airbag system also control the seat belt pretensioners. The pretensioners are triggered only when there is a frontal or side collision severe enough to trigger the airbags and the seat belts are fastened. For precautions and general information including servicing the pretensioner system, refer to "Supplemen­tal restraint system (airbags)" section in addition to this "Seat belt pretensioner sys­tem" section, and follow all those precau­tions.

FOR SAFE DRIVING
Front airbags
63J259
Front airbags are designed to infiate in severe frontal collisions when the ignition switch is in "ON" position.
NOTE: In a frontal angle collision, the side airbags and side cwtain airbags may inflate.
Front airbags are not designed to infiate in rear impacts, side impacts, rollovers or minor frontal collisions, since they would offer no protection in those types of acci­dents. Since an airbag deploys only one time during an accident, seat belts are needed to restrain occupants from further movements during the accident.
1-37
Therefore, an airbag is not a substitute for Front passenger's front airbag seat belts. To maximize your protection, always fasten your seat belts. Be aware that no system can prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident.

A WARNING
If the airbag stored place is damaged or cracked, the airbag system may not work properly, which could result in serious injury in the event of a col­lision. Have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
