EXAMPLE

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 4-5 INSTRUMENT PANEL
54G27-03E
“AIR BAG” Light
60G300
The “AIR BAG” light monitors inflators,
crash sensors, seat belt pretensioners, the
front passenger sensing system, and cor-
responding electrical circuit.
This light blinks for several seconds when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position so you can check if the light is
working. The light will come on and stay on
if there is a problem in the air bag system
or the seat belt pretensioner system.
Malfunction Indicator Light
65D530
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A malfunction
indicator light is provided on the instrument
panel to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
The malfunction indicator light comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position to let you know the light is
working and goes out when the engine is
started.
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
or blinks when the engine is running, ser-
vice to the emission control system is nec-
essary. Bring the vehicle to your SUZUKI
dealer to have the emission control system
serviced right away and avoid hard accel-
eration until the service is performed.NOTE:
If the fuel filler cap is not installed fully, the
electrical system gets wet (such as by driv-
ing through a deep puddle of water) or the
fuel tank gets nearly empty, the malfunc-
tion indicator light may come on. If so, the
light will go off after driving a few times
after the fuel filler cap is installed fully, the
electrical system dries out or the fuel tank
is filled.
Low Fuel Warning Light
54G343
If this light comes on, fill the fuel tank
immediately.
NOTE:
The activation point of this light varies
depending on road conditions (for exam-
ple, slope or curve) and driving conditions
because of fuel moving in the tank.
WARNING
If the “AIR BAG” light does not blink
when the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position or stays on or
comes on when driving, the air bag
system or the seat belt pretensioner
system may not work properly. Have
both systems inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the malfunction indicator light is on
or blinking can cause permanent
damage to the vehicle’s emission
control system, and can affect fuel
economy and driveability.

Folding Rear SeatsTo fold the rear seatback(s) forward:
54G372
1) Unlatch the detachable connector
before folding the rear right seatback.
To unlatch, insert the ignition key into
the slot of the connector and allow the
belt to retract.
54G373
2) Once the belt has completely retracted,
secure the latch plate as shown in the
illustration.
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Do
not smoke when refueling, and make
sure there are no open flames or
sparks in the area.
WARNING
If you need to replace the fuel cap,
use a genuine SUZUKI cap or its
equivalent. Use of an improper cap
can result in a malfunction of the fuel
system or emission control system. It
may also result in fuel leakage in the
event of an accident.
CAUTION
When you fold a rear right seatback,
be sure to unlatch the detachable
connector. This helps prevent dam-
age to the belt webbing.

vals and the maintenance recorded.

54G27-03E
Check that there is washer fluid in the tank
by looking at the washer fluid level gauge
which is attached to the cap of the washer
fluid tank. If the fluid level is near “0” mark,
refill it.
Use a good quality windshield washer
fluid, diluted with water as necessary.
Air Cleaner
54G421
(1) Mass air flow sensor
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there
will be greater intake resistance, resulting
in decreased power output and increased
fuel consumption.
To remove the air cleaner element:
1) Loosen the clamp of the hose and
detach the hose from the cover.
2) Remove the connector of the Mass air
flow sensor.
3) Unclamp the side clamps.
4) With the right end of the cleaner cover
lifted, move the cover to the left to
remove it.
5) Remove the element from the air
cleaner. If it appears to be dirty, replace
it with a new one.
WARNING
Do not use “anti-freeze” solution in
the windshield washer reservoir. This
can severely impair visibility when
sprayed on the windshield, and also
damage your vehicle’s paint.
CAUTION
Damage may result if the washer
motor is operated with no fluid in the
washer tank.
(1)
CAUTION
The air cleaner element should be
replaced every 50000 km (30000
miles). More frequent replacement is
necessary when you drive under
dusty conditions.
