Seat belt warning
Follow this warning as well as the instruc-
tion for seat belt in this book.
In the case where a “Seat Belt Assembly”
incorporates an “Automatic Length Adjust-
ing and Locking Retractor” or an “Emer-
gency Locking Retractor”.
For Mexico
Fuel recommendation
54P000101
Your vehicle requires regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum rating of 87 pump
octane ((R + M)/2 method). In some areas,
the only fuels that are available are oxy-
genated fuels.
Oxygenated fuels which meet the mini-
mum octane requirement and the require-
ments described below may be used in
your vehicle without jeopardizing the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
WA R N I N G
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 con-
tamination of the webbing with pol-
ishes, 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)
WA R N I N G
(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 danger-
ous to put a belt around a child
being carried on the occupant’s
lap.
WA R N I N G
• 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 instruction for seat
belt in this book, adjust the seat
belt so that the lap and sash por-
tions of the “Seat Belt Assembly”
fit as firmly as possible consistent
with comfort.

NOTE:
Oxygenated fuels are fuels which contain
oxygen-carrying additives such as MTBE
or alcohol.
If “RON 95” label is attached, you must use
unleaded gasoline with a minimum rating
of 91 pump octane ((R + M)/2 method).
Gasoline containing MTBE
Unleaded gasoline containing MTBE
(methyl tertiary butyl ether) may be used in
your vehicle if the MTBE content is not
greater than 15%. This oxygenated fuel
does not contain alcohol.
Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol,
may be used in your vehicle if the ethanol
content is not greater than 10%.
Gasoline-methanol blends
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol
(wood alcohol) may be suitable for use in
your vehicle if they contain cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors. Do not use fuels con-
taining more than 5% methanol under any
circumstances. Fuel system damage or
vehicle performance problems resulting
from the use of such fuels are not the
responsibility of SUZUKI and may not be
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Fuel pump labeling
In some states, pumps that dispense oxy-
genated fuels are required to be labeled
for the type and percentage of oxygenate
and whether important additives are pres-
ent. Such labels may provide enough infor-
mation for you to determine if a particular
blend of fuels meets the requirements
listed above. In other areas, pumps may
not be clearly labeled as to the content or
type of oxygenate and additives. If you are
not sure that the fuel you intend to use
meets these requirements, check with the
service station operator or the fuel sup-
plier.
NOTE:
To help clean the air, SUZUKI recom-
mends you use the oxygenated fuels.
However, if you are not satisfied with the
driveability or fuel economy of your vehicle
when you are using an oxygenated fuel,
switch back to the regular unleaded gaso-
line.
Engine oil and filter
Specified oil
“Starburst” symbol
80JC103
Use engine oil for gasoline engines with
the above “Starburst” symbol, certified by
American Petroleum Institute.
We highly recommend you use SAE 0W-20
or 5W-30 oil.
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for good fuel
economy and good starting in cold
weather.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
NOTICE
Failure to use the recommended oil
can result in engine damage.
