GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Seat belt with ELR
The seat belt with Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) is designed so that it locks immediately (to prevent the web-
bing from being pulled out of the retractor any further) when any of the following items is detected as exceeding
each set value; speed at which the webbing is pulled out of the retractor, acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle
speed, and inclination.
Seat belt with A-ELR
The automatic and emergency locking retractor (A-ELR) works as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) till its
webbing is pulled all the way out and then on as an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) till it is retracted fully.
ALR: Automatically locks when the webbing is pulled out from the retractor and allowed to retract even a little.
Then the webbing can not be pulled out any further, unless it is wound all the way back into the retractor, which
releases the lock and allows the webbing to be pulled out.
Driver and front passenger side air bags
The driver and front passenger side air bags are components of the air bag system. In occurrence of a front collision
with an impact larger than a certain set value, they are activated by the ignition signal from SDM to supplement
protection offered by the driver and front passenger seat belts.

the driver air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column

the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat
For more information, refer to SECTION 10B ªAir Bag Systemº.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
CAUTION:
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they were re-
moved. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use the correct part number fastener for that application. If
the correct part number fastener is not available, a fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger) may
be used. Fasteners that are not reused, and those requiring thread-locking compound, will be called
out. The correct torque value must be used when installing fasteners that require it. If the above proce-
dures are not followed, parts or system damage could result.

AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-3
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
With the air bag system which includes air bags for both the driver's
and passenger's sides as well as the seat belt pretensioners (if
equipped), the sag of the seat belt is taken up, the driver air bag (in-
flator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
and the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the
instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat in occurrence
of a front collision with an impact larger than a certain set value to
supplement protection offered by the driver and front passenger
seat belts.
The air bag system is designed to activate only in severe frontal col-
lisions. It is not designed to activate in rear impacts, side impacts,
rollovers, or minor frontal collisions, since it would offer no protec-
tion in those types of accidents.

If a code not listed on the table is displayed, then the SDM is faulty.

Current DTC and history DTC can be identified by lighting and flashing of ªAIR BAGº warning lamp as
follows.
Current DTC is set.
(Abnormality exists at present.)History DTC is set only. (Faulty condi-
tion occurred once in the past but nor-

Current DTC is displayed.History DTC is displayed.
However, if a multiple number of DTC's are set an even one of them is a current DTC, ªAIR BAGº warning
lamp remains on after ignition switch is turned ON. Therefore, it is not possible to identify any of them
as to whether it is a current one or a history one. (But use of scan tool (Tech 1) will make identification
possible.)
