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.

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.

The driver's front airbag is located behind the canter pad of the steering wheel and the front passenger's front airbag is located behind the passenger's side of the dashboard. The words "SRS AIRBAG" are melded into the airbag covers to identify the location of the airbags.
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.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper po_sition for maximum protection when an airbag infiates. Adjust your seat as far back as possible while still maintaining control of the vehicle. Sit fully back in your seat; sit up straight; do not lean over the steering wheel or dashboard. Front occupants should not lean on or sleep against the door. Refer to "Seat adjustment" section and "Seat belts and child restraint systems" section in this section for details on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.

A WARNING
• The driver should not lean over the steering wheel. The front passenger should not rest his or her body against the dashboard, or otherwise get too close to the dashboard. For vehicles with side airbags and side curtain airbag, occupants should not lean on or sleep against the door. In these situations, the out-of-position occupant would be too close to an inflating airbag, and may suffer severe injury. • Do not attach any objects to, or place any objects over, the steering wheel or dashboard. Do not place any objects between the airbag and the driver or front passenger. These objects may interfere with airbag operation or may be propelled by the airbag in the event of a collision. Also, these objects may move when you start moving vehicle or while vehicle is moving, they may interfere with driver's view or safe driving. In each conditions may cause severe injury. (Continued)
NOTE: If you lose your immobilizer ignition key, ask a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possible to deactivate the lost one, and to make a new key. If you own other vehicles with immobilizer keys, keep those keys away from the ignition switch when using your SUZUKI vehicle. Otherwise, the engine may not be started because they may interfere with your SUZUKI vehicle's immobilizer system. If you attach any metal objects to the immobilizer key, it may not start the engine.
NOTICE
The immobilizer key is sensitive electronic instruments. To avoid damaging them: Do not expose them to impacts, moisture or high temperature such as on the dashboard under direct sunlight. Keep them away from magnetic objects.

You can let the climate control system work automatically. To set the system for fully-automatic operation, follow the procedure below.
1) Start the engine. 2) Push "AUTO" switch (8). 3) Set the desired temperature by turning the temperature selector (1 ).
The blower speed, air intake and air flow are controlled automatically to maintain the set temperature. However, the air flow is not changed to DEFROST position auto
matically.
NOTE: When the recirculated air mode is selected, the automatic operation system is deactivated even if you push ''AUTO" switch (8).
OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
You can use the air conditioning switch (6) to manually turn the air conditioner on or off according to your preference. When you turn the air conditioning switch off, the climate control system cannot lower the inside temperature below outside temperature.
To turn the climate control system off, push "OFF" switch (7).
NOTE: If ''AUTO" in the display blinks, there is a problem in the heating system and/or air conditioning system. You should have the system inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE: To find the temperature at which you are most comfortable, start with the 22'C (72'F) or 25'C (75'F) setting. (the temperature vary depending on vehicle specifications.). If you turn the temperature selector (1) until "HI" or "LO" appears on the display, the climate control system will operate at maximum heating or cooling and the blower will run at full speed. To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather or hot air in hot weather, the system will delay turning on the blower until warmed or cooled air is available. If your vehicle has been left in the sun with the windows closed, it will cool faster if you open the windows briefly. Even under the automatic operation, you can set individual selectors to the manual mode. The manually selected functions
are maintained, and the other functions remain under automatic operation. If the windshield and/or the front door windows are fogged, push the defrost switch (5) to turn on the defroster, or push the air flow selector (4) to change the air flow to HEAT & DEFROST position to defog the windows. To return the blower speed selector (2), air intake selector (3), and air flow selector (4) to automatic operation, push ''AUTO" switch (8).
