EMERGENCY SERVICE
75RM4-01E
If the high engine coolant temperature
warning light does not go off:
1) Turn off the engine and check that thewater pump belt and pulleys are not
damaged or slipping. If any abnormality
is found, correct it.
2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir. If it is found to be lower than “LOW”
line, check radiator, water pump, radia-
tor hoses and heater hoses for leakage.
If leakage that may cause overheating
is found, do not run the engine until
these problems have been corrected.
3) If leakage is not found, carefully add
coolant to the reservoir and then the
radiator, if necessary. (Refer to “Engine
coolant” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section.)
NOTE:
If engine overheats and you are not sure
what to do, contact your SUZUKI dealer.

• It is hazardous to remove the radia- tor cap (or degassing tank cap for a
diesel engine) when the water tem-
perature is high, because scalding
fluid and steam may be blown out
under pressure. The cap should
only be taken off when the coolant
temperature has lowered.
• To help prevent personal injury, keep hands, tools and clothing
away from the engine cooling fan
and air-conditioner fan (if
equipped). These electric fans can
automatically turn on without warn-
ing.
9-3APPEARANCE CARE
75RM4-01E
Leather upholstery
Remove loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
Using a mild soap or saddle soap solution,
wipe dirt off with a clean damp soft cloth.
To remove soap, wipe the areas again with
a soft cloth dampened with water. Wipe the
areas dry with a soft dry cloth. Repeat this
until the dirt or stain is removed, or use a
commercial leather cleaner for tougher dirt
or stains. If you use a leather cleaner,
carefully follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions and precautions. Do not use solvent
type cleaners or abrasive cleaners.
NOTE:
• In order to keep leather upholstery look-ing good, it should be cleaned at least
twice a year.
• If leather upholstery becomes wet, immediately wipe it dry with tissue paper
or a soft cloth. Water may cause leather
to harden and shrink if it is not wiped off.
• When parking on sunny days, select a
shady place or use a sunshade. If
leather upholstery is exposed to direct
sunlight for a long time, it may discolor
and shrink.
• As is common with natural materials, leather is inherently irregular in grain and
cowhide has spots in its natural state.
These do not affect the performance of
the leather in any way. Seat belts
Clean seat belts with a mild soap and
water. Do not use bleach or dye on the
belts. They may weaken the fabric in the
belts.
Vinyl floor mats
Ordinary dirt can be removed from vinyl
with water or mild soap. Use a brush to
help loosen dirt. After the dirt is loosened,
rinse the mat thoroughly with water and
dry it in the shade.
Carpets
Remove dirt and soil as much as possible
with a vacuum cleaner. Using a mild soap
solution, rub stained areas with a clean
damp cloth. To remove soap, rub the areas
again with a cloth dampened with water.
Repeat this until the stain is removed, or
use a commercial carpet cleaner for
tougher stains. If you use a carpet cleaner,
carefully follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions and precautions.
Instrument panel and console
Remove loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
Gently wipe dirt off with a tightly squeezed
damp clean cloth. Repeat this until the dirt
is removed.
NOTICE
Do not use chemical products that
contain silicon to wipe electrical
components such as the air condi-
tioning system, audio, navigation
system, or other switches. These will
cause damage to the components.
NOTICE
• Liquid such as liquid aromatics,
soft drinks or juice may cause dis-
coloration, wrinkles, and cracking
to resin-based parts and textiles.
Immediately wipe it dry with tissue
paper or a soft cloth.
• Do not leave leather products with color, fur or vinyl products, etc. in
your vehicle for long periods. It
may cause discoloration or deterio-
ration of interior.

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)

• 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 additionsshould 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 SEAT BELT instruction in this book, adjust the
seat belt so that the lap and sash
portions of the Seat Belt Assembly
fit as firmly as possible consistent
with comfort.

K12M engine models
To avoid damaging the catalytic converter,
you must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher (or
95 or higher if it is stated on the fuel filler
lid).
These vehicles are also identified by a
label attached near the fuel filler pipe that
states: “UNLEADED FUEL ONLY”, “NUR
UNVERBLEITES BENZIN”, “ENDAST
BLYFRI BENSIN” or “SOLO GASOLINA
SIN PLOMO”.
If a “RON 95” label is attached, you must
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
number (RON) of 95 or higher. Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in certain areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 12% etha-
nol.
Check that this gasoline-ethanol blend has
octane ratings no lower than those recom-
mended for the gasoline.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
use a gasoline-alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded gasoline contain-
ing no alcohol.
WA R N I N G
When using child restraint system on
the front passenger’s seat, the front
passenger’s air bag must be deacti-
vated; otherwise deployment of the
front passenger’s air bag could result
in the death or serious injury of the
child.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the front passenger’s air
bag is activated and the “PASSEN-
GER AIR BAG ON” indicator is on
whenever there is no child restraint
installed on the front passenger’s
seat.
or
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
The fuel tank has an air space to
allow for fuel expansion in hot
weather. If you continue to add fuel
after the filler nozzle has automati-
cally shut off or an initial blowback
occurs, the air chamber will become
full. Exposure to heat when fully
fuelled in this manner will result in
leakage due to fuel expansion. To
prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling
after the filler nozzle has automati-
cally shut off, or when initial vent
blowback occurs, if using an alterna-
tive non-autom
atic system.
