6) Hold the bottle (2) with bottom upwardsand pump the bottle to fill the entire bot-
tle contents (sealant) into the tire.
Thereafter pull off the filler hose and
firmly screw the valve insert into the tire
valve again. If the valve insert is dirty or
lost, use the enclosed spare valve
insert.

7) Screw the air hose (10) of the compres- sor (1) to the tire valve (8). Fit the
power plug (11) to the accessory
socket. For a manual transaxle or an
Auto Gear Shift vehicle, shift from “R”
(Reverse) into “N” (Neutral). Start the
engine. Switch on the compressor.
Inflate the tire to the required air pres-
sure. If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessary
seal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the screw of the air hose.

8) Affix the speed restriction label from theair compressor in the driver’s field of
view.
9) Make a short drive immediately after inflating the tire to the required air pres-
sure. Drive carefully with a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
10)Carry on driving carefully to the nearest
SUZUKI dealer or a tire repair shop. 11)After 10 km (6 mile) running, check the
tire pressure with the pressure gauge of
the compressor. If the air pressure indi-
cates more than 130 kPa (1.3 bar), the
emergency repair is completed. But, if
the air pressure indicates less than the
required air pressure, correct the tire
pressure to the required air pressure. If
the tire pressure has dropped below
130 kPa (1.3 bar), the flat tire repair kit
cannot provide the necessary seal. Do
not use the tire and consult a SUZUKI
dealer or a roadside assistance service.
WA R N I N G
Do not affix the speed restriction
label to the air bag. Also do not affix
it to the warning light indicator or to
the speedometer.
WA R N I N G
Check the tire pressure and confirm
the completion o f the emergency
repair after 10 km (6 mile) of running.
NOTICE
Have the tire renewed at the nearest
SUZUKI dealer. When reusing the
sealed tire, consult a tire repair shop.
The wheel can be reused after wiping
sealant off completely with cloth in
order to prevent rust, but the tire
valve and tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) sensor (if equipped)
must be renewed.
Dispose of the sealant bottle at a
SUZUKI dealer or in accordance with
your regional codes and practices.
After using the seal ant bottle, replace
it with a new bottle from your SUZUKI
dealer.

Using compressor to inflate a tire1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “P” (Park) if your vehicle has a
CVT, or shift into “R” (Reverse) if your
vehicle has a manual transaxle or Auto
Gear Shift.
2) Take out the compressor.
3) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire valve.
4) Connect the air ho se of the compressor
to the tire valve.
5) Connect the power plug of the com- pressor to the accessory socket. For a
manual transaxle or an Auto Gear Shift
vehicle, shift from “R” (Reverse) into “N”
(Neutral). Start the engine. Switch on
the compressor. Inflate the tire to the
required air pressure.
Jump-starting instructions
1) Use only a 12-volt lead-acid battery to
jump-start your vehicle. Position the
good 12-volt lead-acid battery close to
your vehicle so that the jump leads will
reach both batteries. When using a bat-
tery installed on another vehicle, check
that two vehicles do not touch each
other. Set the parking brakes fully on
both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.
WA R N I N G
• Never attempt to jump-start your
vehicle if the lead-acid battery
appears to be frozen. Batteries in
this condition may explode.
• When making jump lead connec- tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Lead-acid batteries produce flam-
mable hydrogen gas. Keep flames
and sparks away from the battery
or an explosion may occur. Never
smoke when working near the bat-
tery.
• If the booster ba ttery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your lead-acid battery discharges repeatedly, for no apparent reason,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam- age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
below.
If you are in doubt, call for qualified
road service.
NOTICE
Your vehicle should not be started by
pushing or towing. This starting
method could result in permanent
damage to the catalytic converter.
Use jump leads to start a vehicle with
a weak or flat battery.
9-5APPEARANCE CARE
75RM4-01E
3) Wash the entire exterior with a milddetergent or car wash soap using a
sponge or soft cloth. The sponge or
cloth should be frequently soaked in the
soap solution.
4) Once the dirt has been completely removed, rinse off the detergent with
running water.
5) Wipe off the vehicle body with a wet chamois or cloth and allow it to dry in
the shade.
6) Check carefully for damage to painted surfaces. If there is any damage, touch
up the damage following the procedure
below:
1. Clean all damaged spots and allow
them to dry.
2. Stir the paint and touch up the dam- aged spots lightly using a small
brush.
3. Allow the paint to dry completely. Washing by an automatic car wash
Washing by a high-pressure cleaner
Waxing
60B211S
After washing the vehicle, waxing and pol-
ishing are recommended to further protect
and beautify the paint.
• Only use waxes and polishes of good
quality.
• When using waxes and polishes, observe the precautions specified by the
manufacturers.
NOTICE
When using a commercial car wash
product, observe the cautions speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Never use
strong household detergents or
soaps.
NOTICE
If you use an automatic car wash,
check that your vehicle’s body parts,
such as spoilers, cannot be dam-
aged. If you are in doubt, consult the
car wash operator for advice.
NOTICE
If you use a high-pressure cleaner,
keep away the nozzle from your vehi-
cle sufficiently.
• Bringing the nozzle to your vehicle
too close or pointing the nozzle to
the opening of front grill or bumper
etc. can cause damage and mal-
function of the vehicle body and
parts.
• Pointing the nozzle to the weather-
strip of door glasses, doors and the
sunroof (if equi pped) can allow
water to enter the cabin.

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 illus-
tration. The number of the top tether
anchorage brackets provided in your vehi-
cle depends on the v ehicle specification.

Tire rotation4-tire rotation
54G114
To avoid uneven wear of your tires and to
prolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-
trated. Tires should be rotated as recom-
mended in the periodic maintenance
schedule. After rotation, adjust front and
rear tire pressures to the specification
listed on your vehicle’s Tire Information
Label.
For TaiwanAir bag symbol meaning
61MS503
You may find this label on the sun visor.Whenever possible, SUZUKI recom-
mends that child restraint systems be
installed on the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in rear seating posi-
tions than in front seating positions.
Your vehicle is equipped with the front pas-
senger’s air bag deactivation system. The
front passenger’s front air bag must be
deactivated if a child restraint system is to
be installed on the fr
ont passenger’s seat.
WA R N I N G
Infants and children who require
child restraint systems should not be
seated in the front passenger’s seat
protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in
front of it.
• Never use a rearward facing child
restraint system for the front pas-
senger’s seat.
• If it is necessary to use a forward facing child restraint system for the
front passenger’s seat, deactivate
the front passenger’s front air bag
in advance.
Otherwise, DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY to the CHILD can occur.
