The pretensioner is located in each front seat belt retractor and each rear seat belt retractor in outboard seating position. The pretensioner tightens the seat belt so the belt fits the occupant's body more snugly in the event of a frontal or side collision. The retractors will remain locked after the pretensioners are activated. Upon activation, some noise will occur and some smoke may be released. These conditions are not harmful and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
The driver and all passengers must be properly restrained by fastening seat belts at all times, whether or not a pretensioner is equipped at their seating position, to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision.
Sit fully back in the seat; sit up straight; do not lean forward or sideways. Adjust the belt so the lap portion of the belt is worn low across the pelvis, not across the waist. Please refer to "Seat adjustment" section and the instructions and precautions about the seat belts in this "Seat belts and child restraint systems" section for details on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.
Please note that the pretensioners along with the airbags will activate in severe frontal or side collisions. They are not designed to activate in rear impacts, rollovers, or minor frontal side collisions. The pretensioners can be activated only once. If the pretensioners are activated (that is, if the airbags are activated), have the pretensioner system serviced by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
If AIRBAG light on the instrument cluster does not blink or come on briefiy when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" position, stays on for more than 1 O seconds, or comes on while driving, the pretensioner system or the airbag system may not work properly. Have both systems inspected by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
Service on or around the pretensioner system components or wiring must be performed only by a SUZUKI dealer who is specially trained. Improper service could result in unintended activation of pretensioners or could render the pretensioner inoperative. Either of these two conditions may result in personal injury.
To prevent damage or unintended activation of the pretensioners, 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 pretensioner system components or wiring. The wires are wrapped with yellow tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are yellow. When scrapping your SUZUKI vehicle, ask a SUZUKI dealer, body repair shop, or scrap yard for assistance.

A WARNING
(Continued) For vehicles with side airbags, do not use non-genuine seat covers on the front seats, because nongenuine seat covers may obstruct the inflation of side airbags. Suzuki highly recommends Suzuki-genuine seat covers to be used when covering the front seats of such vehicles with side airbags. Also, near the door, do not place cup holders, hangers or any other objects and do not lean an umbrella, as these objects could be propelled by the airbag in the event of a collision. Either of these conditions may cause severe injury. Do not strike or apply significant levels of impact to the airbag component areas. It can cause the airbags to malfunction.
Even though your vehicle is moderately damaged by a collision, it may not be severe enough to trigger front, side or side curtain airbags to inflate. If your vehicle sustains any front-end or side damage, have the airbag system inspected by a SUZUKI dealer to ensure that ii works properly.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic module which records information about the airbag system if the airbags deploy in a collision. The module records information about overall system status, and which sensors activated the deployment, and for a certain vehicle only, whether the driver's seat belt was in use.
Servicing the airbag system If the airbags inflate, have the airbags and related components replaced by a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and the driver's floor is submerged, the airbag controller could be damaged. If this happens, ask a SUZUKI dealer to check the airbag system as soon as possible.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
Special procedures are required for servicing or replacing an airbag. For that reason, only a SUZUKI dealer should be allowed to service or replace your airbags. Remind anyone who services your SUZUKI vehicle that it has airbags.
Service on or around airbag components or wiring must be performed only by a SUZUKI dealer. Improper service could result in unintended airbag deployment or could render the airbag inoperative. Either of these two conditions may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended inflation of the airbag system, check that the leadacid 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 or wires. The wires are wrapped with yellow tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflated airbag can be hazardous. Ask a SUZUKI dealer, body repair shop or scrap yard for help with disposal.

OPEN CLOSE
78RB02007
To open a window, push the switch. To close the window, lift up the switch.
The driver's window has AUTO-DOWN and AUTO-UP (if equipped) features for greater convenience (at toll booths or drive-through restaurants, for example). These features allow the driver to open or close the window without holding the window switch in DOWN or UP position. Press down or lift up the driver's window switch completely and release it. To stop the window before it reaches the FULL-DOWN or FULL-UP position, pull up or push down the switch briefly.
A WARNING
• You should always prevent children from operating the electric window switches when there are children in the vehicle. Children can be seriously injured if they get part of their body caught by the window during operation. To avoid injuring an occupant by window entrapment, check that no part of the occupant's body such as hands or head is in the path of the electric windows when closing them. Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle even only for a short time. Also do not leave children alone in a parked vehicle. Unattended children could use the electric window switches and get trapped by the window.
Pinching prevention function
(if equipped)
The driver's window is equipped with a pinching prevention function. This function detects a foreign object that is caught in the window as it is being closed by AUTOUP feature, which allows you to close the window without holding the window switch in UP position, and stops the window from closing to prevent damage.
A. WARNING
To avoid injuring an occupant by window entrapment, check that no part of the occupant's body such as hands or head is in the path of the electric window when closing it. This function may not detect an object due to the size, hardness, or position of the object being caught in the closing window.
A.CAUTION
The pinching prevention function does not operate while you are holding the window switch in UP position. The pinching prevention function may not detect an object caught in the window just before the window is fully closed.
NOTE: Even if you cannot close the window by the AUTO-UP feature because there may be something wrong with the pinching prevention function, you can close the window by holding the window switch in UP position. If you drive in extreme off-road condition, the pinching prevention function may operate accidentally because the window reacts to vehicle jolting.
Pinching prevention function initialization When you disconnect and reconnect the lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the function will be deactivated. In this condition, the AUTO-DOWN feature will be deactivated, while the AUTO-UP feature may remain activated. The pinching prevention function needs to be initialized.
BEFORE DRIVING
To initialize the pinching prevention function, use the following procedure: 1) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" posi
tion. 2) Open the driver's window fully by holding the window switch in DOWN position. 3) Close the driver's window by holding the switch in UP position, and keep holding the switch for 2 seconds after the window is fully closed. 4) Check the driver's window to see if the AUTO-DOWN/UP feature works.
A. WARNING
Whenever you disconnect and reconnect the lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the pinching prevention function needs to be initialized. The pinching prevention function will not be activated until the initialization is completed.
If the AUTO-DOWN/UP feature will not work after initialization, there might be something wrong with the pinching prevention function. Have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
