You may find this label on the sun visor.Please refer to the “Seat Belts and Child
Restraint Systems” section in this section
for details on securing your child.
Door Lock Canceller System
(if equipped)
If SRS Airbag system is activated all doors
are unlocked automatically.
NOTE:
In case door lock wiring and/or motor are
damaged, doors may not unlock automati-
cally.
How the system works
In a frontal collision, the crash sensors will
detect rapid deceleration, and if the con-
troller judges that the deceleration rep-
resents a severe frontal crash, the
controller will trigger the inflators. The infla-
tors inflate the air bags with nitrogen or
argon gas. The inflated air bags provide a
cushion for your head and upper body. The
air bag inflates and deflates so quickly that
you may not even realize that it has acti-vated. The air bag will neither hinder your
view nor make it harder to exit the vehicle.
Air bags must inflate quickly and forcefully
in order to reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries. However, an unavoidable
consequence of the quick inflation is that
the air bag may irritate bare skin, such as
the facial area. Also, upon inflation, a loud
noise will occur and some powder and
smoke will be released. These conditions
are not harmful and do not indicate a fire in
the vehicle. Be aware, however, that some
air bag components may be hot for a while
after inflation.
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper
position for maximum protection when an
air bag inflates. 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. Please refer to the “Front
Seat” section and the “Seat Belts and
Child Restraint Systems” section in this
section for details on proper seat and seat
belt adjustments.
WA R N I N G
Do not use a restraint on a seat pro-
tected by an airbag in front of it.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
If the AIR BAG light in the instrument
cluster ever comes on and stays on,
it means that something may be
wrong with the air bag system. If this
ever happens, have the vehicle ser-
viced immediately, because the air
bags may not offer the protection for
which they were designed.

Note that even though your vehicle may be
moderately damaged in a frontal collision,
the collision may not have been severeenough to trigger the air bags to inflate. If
your vehicle sustains ANY front-end dam-
age, have the air bag system inspected by
an MARUTI SUZUKI authorized dealer to
ensure it is in proper working order.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic
module which records information about
the air bag system if the air bags deploy in
a crash. The module records information
about overall system status, which sensors
activated the deployment, and for a certain
vehicle only, whether the driver’s seat belt
was in use.
Servicing the air bag system
If the air bags inflate, have the air bags and
related components replaced by an autho-
rized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as soon as
possible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and
the driver’s floor is submerged, the air bag
controller could be damaged. If it does,
have the air bag system inspected by the
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
Special procedures are required for servic-
ing or replacing an air bag. For that reason,
only an authorized MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer should be allowed to service or
replace your air bags. Please remind any-
one who services your MARUTI SUZUKI
that it has air bag.
Service on or around air bag components
or wiring must be performed only by an
MARUTI SUZUKI authorized dealer.
Improper service could result in unin-tended air bag deployment or could render
the air bag inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended inflation
of the air bag system, be sure the battery
is disconnected and the ignition switch has
been in the “LOCK” position for at least 90
seconds before performing any electrical
service work on your MARUTI SUZUKI. Do
not touch air bag system components or
wires. The wires are wrapped with yellow
tape or yellow tubing, and the couplers are
yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflated
air bag can be hazardous. Ask your dealer,
body repair shop or scrap yard for help
with disposal.
WA R N I N G
• The driver should not lean over the
steering wheel. In these situations,
the out-of-position occupant would
be too close to an inflating air bag,
and may suffer severe injury.
• Do not attach any objects to, or
place any objects over, the steering
wheel. Do not place any objects
between the air bag and the driver.
These objects may interfere with air
bag operation or may be propelled
by the air bag in the event of a
crash. Either of these conditions
may cause severe injury.

the light stays on without blinking, then the
engine is overheating. Follow the instruc-
tions in the “If the Engine Overheats” of
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section.
Immobilizer System Light
53M-04-081
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, and
goes out when the engine is started. If this
light blinks with the ignition switch turned to
“ON”, there may be something wrong with
the immobilizer system. Ask your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer to have the system
inspected.
Door Lock Canceller Indicator Light
(if equipped)
53M-04-082
This indicator light will come on and keep
blinking continuously if there is some prob-
lem with door lock canceller system. Have
the vehicle inspected by MARUTI SUZUKI
authorized dealer.
NOTE:
In case door lock wiring and/or motor
are
damaged, Door Lock Canceller Indicator
Light will not blink.
Gear Shift Indicator (if equipped)Manual Transaxle
53M-04-083
This indicator informs about upshifting or
downshifting the gear while the vehicle is
running.There are three indications:
Upshift Indicator
This symbol indicates that lower gear posi-
tion is selected for vehicle’s current speed
and / or engine revolution. Changing to
higher gear position is recommended.
Stay Indicator
This symbol indicates that current gear
position is optimal for vehicle’s current
speed and / or engine revolution. No gear
shifting is required.
NOTE:
While driving in optimal gear position, the
upshift/downshift indicator does not
appear.
Downshift Indicator
This symbol indicates that higher gear
position is selected for the vehicle’s current
speed and / or engine revolution. Changing
to lower gear position is recommended.
NOTICE
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
engine overheating is indicated can
result in severe engine damage.
